I've gotta start livin'
'Cause my life's passing me by
I'm a wreck, I'm unraveling
You're in the front row as I'm struggling
The spotlight shines, showing everyone
Imperfect lines, I tried to cover up
I was born into a landslide
Now my heart's a perfect stone
It's a paper weight for bad ideas
'Cause I always fly too close
I'll melt the ice caps in the Arctic sea
Making a boardwalk out of Philly streets
New Jersey becomes the new Atlantis
Ringing in a new age of romances
(So I can feel alive again)
I was born into a landslide
Now my heart's a perfect stone
It's a paper weight for bad ideas
'Cause I always fly too close
To the sunshine, it will burn my eyes
The sun is burning out my eyes
I've gotta stop living like a tornado
Uprooting everything that gets too close
Before its roots get to grow
I was born into a landslide
Now my heart's a perfect stone
It's a paper weight for bad ideas
'Cause I always fly too close
To the sunshine, it will burn my eyes
The sun will burn my eyes
I've gotta start livin'
'Cause my life's passing me by
