Place Like This Lyrics by Wingtip

All Your Friends Are Here

2020

[Intro]
Hey, I'm just calling

[Verse 1]
You should quit that job that you never liked
Tell your friends you’re tired of going out every night
Come and meet me at dark
Don't tell anyone
And we could keep on driving 'til we found somewhere
With so many new faces and [?] in the air
Wouldn’t have to go far to find what we want

[Pre-Chorus]
And I spend all of my time
Staring at ceilings, watching them peeling
Never wondering why
I feel so defeated
Whether I need this

[Chorus]
I'll be the driver
You'll be the getaway car
I'll be the lighter
You'll be the birds on my arm
I know it's hard in a place like this
Growing up somewhere that can't fit you it in
I'll be the pavement
You’ll be the foot off the ground
I’ll be the basement
You'll be the kids moving out
Running ’round like our parents did
I know it's hard in a place like this

[Post-Chorus]
I know it's hard in a place like this
I know it's hard
I know it’s hard

[Verse 2]
You could fix that smile with some sun in your hair
New clothes and new friends with some money to spare
And we could go tonight
If that's what you want
And when we run out of patience we'll go somewhere new
Find a town somewhere we can't pronounce the food
Watch the fading lights from the restaurant

[Pre-Chorus]
And I spend all of my time
Staring at ceilings, watching them peeling
Never wondering why
I feel so defeated
Whether I need this

[Chorus]
I'll be the driver
You'll be the getaway car
I'll be the lighter
You'll be the birds on my arm
I know it's hard in a place like this
Growing up somewhere that can't fit you it in
I'll be the pavement
You'll be the foot off the ground
I'll be the basement
You'll be the kids moving out
Running 'round like our parents did
I know it's hard in a place like this

[Bridge]
I know it's hard in a place like this
I know it's hard
I know it's hard
I know it's hard in a place like this
I know it's hard
I know it's hard

[Outro]
You should quit that job that you never liked
Tell your friends you're tired of going out every night
Come and meet me at dark
Don't tell anyone
