Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Left home a mystery
Leave school for poetry
I say goodbye to them and me
Mission velocity
It made me just run faster now
I'm gonna take it all, drive around
Make up my mind with the windows down
[Chorus]
I'm in something alright, I know
I got to live it out, uh-oh, oh
I can't resist, net force zero, oh, no
It turned out like I said it would
Can I get the world right here?
[Verse 2]
Step out to symphonies
They play on for you and me
When we faced that July dawn
In uniforms, one and one, no wrong
We chased that summer down
[Chorus]
I'm in something alright, I know
I got to live it out, uh-oh, oh
I can't resist, net force zero, oh, no
It turned out like I said it would
Can I get the world right here?
[Instrumental]
I can't resist, net force zero, oh, no
It turned out like I said it would
Can I get the world right here?
[Outro]
Hello, you mystery
Mission velocity
Here comes our poetry
New town velocity
