City Limits Lyrics by I Am Giant

The Horrifying Truth

2011

[Verse 1]
If I had’ve known it
Then I would’ve shown it
My frustration with this old town
You can brush it under
But it always comes back
It’s still following you around
And the city limits
Keep on getting bigger
Just when you thought you had made it out
And you’re sick of waiting
Lying on the pavement
Tryna’ get out of this old town
[Pre-Chorus 1]
She confides that
She wants a little more
Are we living?
Are we living?
She confides that
She wants a little more
Are we living?
Or merely killing time?
[Instrumental 1]
[Verse 2]
Looking at the ceiling
Tryna shake the feeling
That you just may have missed your time
Tearing up your ticket
Did you think you won it?
Make a killing in this old town
[Pre-Chorus 2]
She confides that
She wants a little more
Are we living?
Are we living?
She confides that
She wants a little more
Are we living?
Or merely killing time?
[Instrumental 2]
[Chorus 1]
Oh, feeling like I should get away
Feeling like I should get away
I’m sorry that you know
I’m sorry that you know
Feeling like I should get away
Feeling like I should get away
I’m sorry that you know
I’m sorry that you know
[Verse 3]
If I had've known it
Then I would have shown it
My frustration with this old town
And the paint is fading
On the car that’s waiting
Around the corner to take you out
Past the city limits
Past the point of living
Over the border of yesterday
Biting on the bullet
Do you really want it?
Dying for your chance to feel alive
[Instrumental 3]
[Chorus 2]
Oh, feeling like I should get away
Feeling like I should get away
I’m sorry that you know
I’m sorry that you know
Feeling like I should get away
Feeling like I should get away
I’m sorry that you know
I’m sorry that you know
