Where Dreams Go to Die (EP Version)

Where Dreams Go To Die (EP Version) - The Downtown Fiction

You breath hangs in the air

It's freezing but the bus ain't there

You're wishing for someone to stop this

Back in class again

You feel just like an empty pen

Loss for words and void of purpose

They cornered you there's nowhere to get out

How How

They'll try to convince you

And tell you that they're right

They'll break you and beat you

And steal away your life

And tell you that you're nothing and they'll never get it right

But high school's the place where dreams go to die

Teacher thinks you're rude

Says "I don't like your attitude"

Well maybe you're just condescending

But bring us up to follow rules

And throw us all in cubic rooms

But we're not gonna sit by idle

We're getting out we're gonna find our way

Hey hey

They'll try to convince you

And tell you that they're right

They'll break you and beat you

And steal away your life

And tell you that you're nothing and they'll never get it right

But high school's the place where dreams go to die

Well we'll be more than they'll ever be

Just bitter from their own failed dreams

They're desperate and do anything to bring you down

Well we'll do more than they ever did

Talk down to some poor old kid

We are the ones the ones who made it

They'll try to convince you

And tell you that they're right

They'll break you and beat you

And steal away your life

And tell you that you're nothing and they'll never get it right

But high school's the place where dreams

But high school's the place where dreams

But high school's the place where dreams go to die
