Laken Campo - Portland Lyrics

The air tastes bitter I can't breathe it in
The tension's thicker And suffocating
Everybody knows everyone
And their mothers pretend
Not to notice Lose their focus
The same old drive
On broken concrete,
"come and take it" flags
On homes of the elite
Everybody knows everyone
And i hate it
They try to play dumb
When i feel numb

I dream about living in portland
Of packing my bags and just moving away
I've heard that the life there is different
It's better than still being stuck in the same
I feel like i'll never belong here
The wandering eyes show a price to be paid
I'm thinking 'bout living in portland
Don't come looking for me
'cuz honestly, i can't wait

I can't wait Mmm

Judgements pass
Through gritted teeth
Town council's finest
Hold secrets beneath
Everybody knows everyone Chose to stay in the lie
Authority grows, and nobody knows
How to live till they've already died

I dream about living in portland
Of packing my bags and just moving away
I've heard that the life there is different
It's better than still being stuck in the same
I feel like i'll never belong here
The wandering eyes show a price to be paid
I'm thinking 'bout living in portland
Don't come looking for me
'cuz honestly,

When should i leave?
Gotta close out the show
Life can't be fair
This town taught me so
So i'm gonna go
You can't tell me no. I dream about living in portland
Of packing my bags and just moving away
I've heard that the life there is different
It's better than still being stuck in the same
I feel like i'll never belong here
The wandering eyes show a price to be paid
I'm thinking 'bout living in portland
Don't come looking for me
'cuz honestly, i can't wait

Wait Oh i can't, oh i can't wait
