This Town by The Paradigms Lyrics
Council flats and faded marks
Of a past that’s deep inside
You’ll never know who I truly am
And that’s why I need to hide
Now there’s only passing time
What I want will never be mine
And I know
Where I go from here
One day when I grow old
I’ll look back on this town called home
Stand tall as the river flows
Like a memory you’ll never know
City lights and see-through dreams
A whole town is busting at its seams
To get a glimpse of what they’ll become
Down the road cutting lines for fun
There’s no answers
For being stuck down here
No sеcond chances
To break out of the atmosphеre
One day when I grow old
I’ll look back on this town called home
Stand tall as the river flows
Like a memory you’ll never know
There’s no place that can offer
Faceless men sleeping rough on their own
While stripping roofs of copper
Broken homes lining derelict roads
One day when I grow old
I’ll look back on this town called home
Stand tall as the river flows
Like a memory you’ll never know
One day when I grow old
I’ll look back on this town called home
Stand tall as the river flows
Like a memory you’ll never know
Of a past that’s deep inside
You’ll never know who I truly am
And that’s why I need to hide
Now there’s only passing time
What I want will never be mine
And I know
Where I go from here
One day when I grow old
I’ll look back on this town called home
Stand tall as the river flows
Like a memory you’ll never know
City lights and see-through dreams
A whole town is busting at its seams
To get a glimpse of what they’ll become
Down the road cutting lines for fun
There’s no answers
For being stuck down here
No sеcond chances
To break out of the atmosphеre
One day when I grow old
I’ll look back on this town called home
Stand tall as the river flows
Like a memory you’ll never know
There’s no place that can offer
Faceless men sleeping rough on their own
While stripping roofs of copper
Broken homes lining derelict roads
One day when I grow old
I’ll look back on this town called home
Stand tall as the river flows
Like a memory you’ll never know
One day when I grow old
I’ll look back on this town called home
Stand tall as the river flows
Like a memory you’ll never know
