I am looking for drugs in a midwest town
I'm searching for something I have not found
Just point me the furthest direction south from you
I will descend and I will not grow
True friends stab in the front you know
I've realized my loss and won't let it show to you
We've grown up to fast on a one way track
To minimum wage, with our hearts in a cage
Is this what you thought we would be at 23?

And with the strength to carry on
I'll keep pushing through these thoughts
Without a father I've been taught
To lose your wings and not succeed
But that won't keep me hear at bay
I'll watch you all fade away

If there was one truth that I had not found
I'd wish it to be that my mind would be free
From hating this town as it slowly drowns our lives
So pack up your things and head out that door
You always thought that we'd strive for more
And live out our dreams to the fullest degree oh yea
So when the darkness drowns my light, I'll cast my sail and hope to prevail
Without a father I've been taught
To never talk or share these thoughts
But that won't keep me here at bay,
I'll watch you all fade away

Fade Away (We've grown up too fast on a one way track)
Fade Away (To minimum wage with our hearts in a cage)
Fade Away (You always thought that we'd strive for so much more)
