C G Am
I've sat and watched this city crumble,
C G Am
Just as it was being built.
C G Am
The bigger it gets the less it's thought of,
C G Am
I'm just scared of losing all that we have left.
Chorus:
C G Am
And the colours of these roads are matching the rainy sky.
C G Am
We're too blind to see what's really here in front of our eyes.
C G Am
And I hope someday this will all reverse,
C G Am
And send us back to the times before.
C G Am
Before we grew up and lost the novelty of,
C G Am
Clear blue skies and climbing trees.
C G Am
Can't you see what our lives have come to be?
C G Am
Can't you see what our lives have come to be?
C G Am
We used to just make friends so easily,
C G Am
Never judging anyone was how it's meant to be.
C G Am
Our parents were always heroes in our eyes,
C G Am
But TV and magazines soon changed our minds.
Chorus:
C G Am
And the colours of these roads are matching the rainy sky.

C G Am
Can't you see what our lives have come to be?
C G Am
I watched people I loved turn into rust,
C G Am
Wearing almost nothing they go out after dusk.
C G Am
As if to be accepted you need to sell yourself,
C G Am
They need to learn there's much more to this world.
