Crosstown Countdown

I live in a bubble, I live in a cage
got no place to put this unrequited rage
Oh oh let it go let it go now
Let it go let it go let it go
Living on borrowed money, on borrowed time
it’s a race to the bottom, with no place to climb
Oh oh let it go let go let it go now
there’s just no way to know
Down all day, up all night
Everybody’s looking for another fight.
Oh oh let it go let it go let it go now
It’s a crosstown countdown
with nothing left to show
Oh oh let it go let it go now
It’s a crosstown countdown
and nobody knows
[break]
I live in troubles writ in stages
writ in sorrows I can’t assuage
Oh oh let it go let it go now
All that struggle’s nothing left to show
Miss my bebe miss my friends
I wonder how this all will end
Oh oh let it go let it go now
You don’t wanna break you better bend
Oh oh let it go let it go now
It’s a crosstown countdown
to the bitter end
Oh oh let it go let it go let it go now
This sure as hell’s no way to live
Oh oh let it go let it go let it go now
It’s a crosstown countdown
and something’s gotta give
Oh oh let it go let it go let it go now
It’s a crosstown countdown
with nothing left to show
It’s a crosstown countdown
and nobody knows
It’s a crosstown countdown
and here we go
