Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The same old loose lipped cannon
Speaks for you today
Alone without your talent
There's not much to say
[Verse 2]
Through all these arguments
So meaningless today
And the reasons why they've vanished in the haze
[Verse 3]
It's callin' downtown
It's callin' downtown
No reasons do they  owe you
Tell me, how'd you think it came to be?
It's callin' downtown
It's callin' downtown
How'd they come to love you
When you didn't want to set them free?
[Verse 4]
We don't forgive to know you
Will you ever see?
No reasons do we owe you
How'd it come to be?
[Verse 5]
The leaves have lost their shadows
Deep amongst the gray
I hope that you'll be friendly
I heard someone say
[Verse 6]
It's callin' downtown
It's callin' downtown
No reasons do they owe you
Tell me, how'd you think it came to be?
It's callin' downtown
It's callin' downtown
How'd they come to love you
When you didn't want to set them free?
[Verse 7]
It's a stranger
It's callin' downtown
It's a stranger
It's callin' downtown
It's a stranger
But further away
It's a stranger
It's callin' downtown
[Verse 8]
It's a stranger
It's callin' downtown
It's a stranger
But further away
It's a stranger
It's callin' downtown
It's a stranger
It's callin' downtown
It's a stranger
But further away
[Verse 9]
And it's easy to start from this back of the line
It's callin' downtown
Where there's no one to tell you you're still behind
It's callin' downtown
It's a stranger
But further away
And you never miss your friends until you can't relate
It's callin' downtown
To the people beside you here today
[Verse 10]
It's callin' downtown
It's a stranger
But further away again
It's callin' downtown
Further away again
It's callin' downtown
Further away again
