Empires - Lifers lyrics

They're relaxed dust in our eyes Or in the blur of enraged city lights My heart's a world of old woes Some I recall and some that I don't Only way out's the way back in I remain on highways and small stages That'll be the dream for me See my friends on jet planes and big stages And I wave and they'll wave back It's all I ask, it's all I ask I wake up ten years older Same war, the same fallen soldiers Where we've been is still where we had it Same place with a different name And the way out's the way back in I remain on highways and small stages And that'll be the dream for me See my friends on jet planes and big stages And I'll wave, and they'll wave back It's all I ask, it's all I ask The only way out's the way back in.
