Lyrics:
Take a look around
The town you grew up in is tired and fading
Endlessly sighing
Your family is there expectantly waiting
Your mother complaining, your father is quiet
And on the way to the station
You pass by the houses, dark windows saying
There’s a reason you sneak out
At night to be with all your friends in the open
Out in the open

Wherever you are, we’re just getting started
Out of the dark, into the highlands
Give me your heart, I wanna hide it
And I can’t keep waiting for things to change
Don’t care where you are, we’re just getting started
Out of the dark, into the highlands
Give me your heart, I wanna hide it
And I can’t keep waiting for things to change

Take a look around
What am I saying?
I don’t wanna stay here I kinda hate it
I don’t like the winter I just like the sound
Of the sticks always falling, breaking my heart
And by the way, the air is like ice
But I’m seeing it clearly in this new light
I don’t like running I just like the sound
Of the movement and footsteps hitting the ground

I can’t keep waiting, I can’t keep waiting, I can’t keep waiting, I can’t keep waiting, I can’t keep waiting, I can’t keep waiting, I need a change, I need a change and I need a change, I need a change and I need a change and I need a change, yeah, ooooh
