[Verse 1: Crowded Places] Bright lights and contrite cuts fogging my clear view Combat the slight rut it's bogging my fear through Life's so cold when your minds at the bottom And you hoping for relief when you audit the problem Got a few old dreams I dreamed, I forget them Now I'm sitting here working the gleam of the rotten I wish my hands could hold steady, we're almost there I dish my plans out his pain, now I'm more aware I feel the reigns a silent king lemme take you there The price of peace I pay it when I breathe this air Pressing on, staying strong Won't be long, here we are Mind on moving on On and on, on and on [Hook: Crowded Places] I can only dream when I'm resting, resting
I can only dream when I'm resting, resting I can only dream when I'm resting, resting I can only dream when I'm resting, resting [Verse 2: Crowded Places] So that's what I'm aiming for the pen is the mark Had some smudges on my scope and now my visions sharp Won't bow to the forces I can't control Told em all they can drop dead this is my home This is my Rome this is my stone My dome, my planet I own I throw my will in their lap Many think I'm joking so they laugh Is he is really soaking, hoping what is that Is it sad that he still wants to grow Is it bad I do what I know My life is finally in Order So I'm moving forward [Hook: Crowded Places]
