Blaine:

So this is what you meant

When you said that you were spent,

And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit

Right to the top,

Don't look back

Packing my bags and giving the academy a rain check



I don't ever want to let you down

I don't ever want to leave this town

'Cause after all,

This city never sleeps at night



It's time to begin, 

Isn't it

I get a little bit bigger, but then, I'll admit

I'm just the same as I was

Oh, don't you understand

I'm never changing who I am



So this is where you fell

And I am left to sell

The path to heaven runs through miles of clouded hell

Right to the top,

Don't look back

Turning to rags and giving the commodities a rain check



I don't ever want to let you down

I don't ever want to leave this town

'Cause after all,

This city never sleeps at night



It's time to begin,

Isn't it,

I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit

I'm just the same as I was

Oh, don't you understand,

I'm never changing who I am



It's time to begin, 

Isn't it

I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit

I'm just the same as I was

Oh, don't you understand

I'm never changing who I am



This road never looked so lonely (lonely)

This house doesn't burn down slowly (slowly)

To ashes, to ashes



It's time to begin, 

Isn't it

I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit

I'm just the same as I was

Now don't you understand

I'm never changing who I am



It's time to begin, 

Isn't it

I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit

I'm just the same as I was

Don't you understand

I'm never changing who I am



(Am, am, am

Am, am, am, am)
