Lyrics
Everybody's hanging out downtown
Looking for something real
Yeah, everybody's gathered 'round in a crowd
Tell me, what is the deal?
All the pretty people dressing up
Putting on many layers
There's too many of us down on our knees
Saying too many prayers
Somebody's perfect song
Is in the room playing
I'm not gonna let it keep me from
Saying what needs saying
There are no new melodies
Left to sing to you, thank God
Because I'm tired of trying
To sing something new to sing to you
Well, here I am right now
Looking for something real
Yeah, I'm just reaching out
Tell me, what's the deal?
I am just reaching out
Trying to strip away the layers
I guess I'll get back down on my knees
And say one last prayer
