In a small town in the hills of Jersey
Is a boy at home lost in his blues
All he knows is out in the cusp of the night
Far too wasted to see any of the signs
All he wants is someone to talk to
There's a boy
There's a girl
Let them talk things through
Wonder if they know it'll be their last time talking as youth
She's off to college
He's at home looking for clues
Her life is planned till the end
He's got nothing to lose
Will life improve?
(No no no nah nah na na na)
There's a boy
There's a girl
Let em' talk things through
Wonder if he knows she moved on the second he let her loose
(Alright yea)
In the vast city the city of hopeless dreams
Is the girl we got the great honor to meet
She's out partying making friends every night
The thought of home escaped her fragile complex mind
She's on her way to finding her inner truth
There's a boy
There's a girl
Let them talking things through
Wonder if he knows it'll be his last time talking as youth
He dreams every night
A far fetched delight
But he knows it's only a matter of time
Before reality sets in
Closing him in the cycle of life
He's knows he's gotta play it right
Chase it every night
Till the stars align
The opportunity's not coming there
You gotta play it fair
You gotta have that look in your eye
