Artist: The Killers
Song: Sam's Town

Nobody ever had a dream round here, 
but I don't really mind and/that it's starting to get to me 
Nobody ever pulls the seams round here, 
but I don't really mind and/that it's starting to get to me 

I've got this energy beneath my feet 
like something underground's gonna come up and carry me, 
I've got this sentimental heart that beats 
but I don't really mind (and) it's starting to get to me 

Now.."Why do you waste my time?" 
Is the answer to the question on your mind 
And I'm sick of all my judges 
so scared of what they'll find 
But I know that I can make it 
As long as somebody takes me home, 
every now and then... 

Oh, have you ever seen the lights? 
Have you ever seen the lights? 

I took the shuttle on a shock-wave ride, 
where the people on the pen pull the trigger for accolade 
I took a bullet, and I looked inside 
Running through my veins 
An American masquerade 

I still remember Grandma Dixie's wake, 
I never really known anybody to die before 
Red white and blue upon a birthday cake, 
My brother, he was born on the fourth of the July...and that's all 

"So why do you waste my time?" 
Is the answer to the question on your mind 
And I'm sick of all my judges, 
so scared of letting me shine 
But I know that I can make it, 
as long as somebody takes me home... 

Wooooooo! 

(every now and then) [x2] 

(You know) I see London, I see Sam's Town 
holds my hand and let's my hair down 
Rolls that world right off my shoulder 
I see London, I see Sam's Town now
