Ego Town - Lyrics

Forever Bound

Do you really 
think I need those foolish creatures
around
Can’t you tell my
head’s full of thoughts and I can’t control them
can’t calm down


I have to leave this behind
elevate
to find my peace of mind
Craving for the unknown
every day
I have to see what I find


I can tell by your laughter
You think I’ll lose my way
Grab my hand and come closer
We need to fly (get) away


I’m not sure if
you’re ready for my irrational ways
I’m a rollercoaster
All I know is
you’re the eminent aid I can’t renounce
You’re the air that I breathe


I need to find what I’m after
You cannot hold me down
I hear your heart beating faster
We are forever bound

This Dawn

Here I come, there’s no time to lose
Get in, the road is callin’
Can you feel the tension
Rising within

Let the wind blow through your hair
Put on your shades and smile
Keep your eyes on the road and 
Leave this mess behind

 

This dawn is salvation 
That eternal energy
Keeps me going 

No isolation
We evolve in synergy
Our time has come

 

Here we are you have everything
All you ever dreamed of
Have you found your peace now
Your white dove

All that joy and satisfaction
You had it all in you
Keep your eyes wide open
And try to see it through

Living Your Dream

All you want 
Is to be the one
Win the prizes 
And get it all done

Have all the fame 
In this universe
Nothing can tame this madness
Your endless thirst


Livin’ the dream
You are invincible
The king of all extremes

Livin’ a lie
You’re bound to fall so deep
Appreciate it while it lasts

Wake and see your
Illusion pass


You gotta see past 
Your pretty face 
Drive back to your hometown 
To find your grace

That old barn where
You had your first kiss
Embrace what really matters
Go and find your bliss


Livin’ your dream
You are invincible
The king of all extremes

Livin’ a lie
You’re bound to fall so deep
Appreciate it while it lasts

Wake and see your
Illusion pass


Livin’ the dream
You are invincible
The king of all extremes

Livin’ a lie
You’re bound to fall so deep
Appreciate it while it lasts

Waking up is tough

You're till in a dream
You are predictable 
Obsessed with shallow needs

Livin’ a lie
You are disposable
Appreciate it while it lasts

Wake and see your
Illusion pass

Shelter And Curse

You have created 
Your own rabbit hole
Can’t stop diggin’ the soil

What’s the intention
There’s no masterplan 
Your sight is blurred again

Where’s the excitement
And the buzz that keeps you
Going down this route

Why are you fighting
For the same old routine
That doesn’t mean anything


You are wanted
They’re coming for, coming for you
Don’t pretend that you’re blind

You are needed
You know it’s true, know it’s true
It’s time you opened your mind


Running in circles
Is your shelter and curse 
Your never ending verse

You are no deadhead
It’s the leading role
And you have to take control

 

You are wanted
They’re coming for, coming for you
Don’t pretend that you’re blind

You are needed
You know it’s true, know it’s true
It’s time you opened your mind

Wasting Chances

It’s time to face this reality
The weight of my own vanity
This can’t wait till tomorrow
Wait till tomorrow

Get up those lame allegations
Drive me mad this i-so-lation
Can’t hold me captive forever
It’s now or never - once and for all



This is the end of
wasting chances
Leave the blame behind

This is the end now
Don’t feel sorry
Embrace the change of mind



Confused floating in the twilight
All these lost souls still in fight
No I can’t wait till tomorrow
Wait till tomorrow

Wild dissonance on the inside
Being tough ain’t ‘bout how hard you strike
Justice of sanity in sight
It’s now or never - be larger than life

Your Pride

You don’t care if
We all disappear
Blinded and distorted
You’re used up by fear

 

Are you proud of all that power
It makes you feel alive and
It’s addictive you just can’t let go

Turn your head to the water
Reflection is your healer 
You might find your soul

 

Empty on the inside
We need to leave you behind
Your pride is your poison
Clouding your mind


Are you proud of all that power
It makes you feel alive and
It’s addictive you just can’t let go

Turn your head to the water
Reflection is your Healer 
You might find your soul

Ego Town

Can’t believe that it’s over
You barely started yet
You came so far and now

All you have is the closure
You’re narrow minded and a
Hopeless clown


You have promised to stay strong
Independent and 
wise enough to thrive

Loud & proud but you were proved wrong
You would’ve needed
A lot more miles to drive



I hate to say it 
But I told you so
Take a look around

Puppets on strings 
And I’m your master
In Ego Town


You are bound to face it
Take a look around
Inhale the cold

That’s all we’re left with
Your sorrow might start to
Heal your blasted soul



I hate to say it 
But I told you so
Take a look around

Puppets on strings 
And I’m your master
In Ego Town

Don't Let Go

I waited all these years
To find my way
I knew my time would come
And now I’m here to stay

When I saw you on that day
My worries disappeared 
This is more than one can dream of
You are all I need


Come hold my hand
I reach out for you
Don’t fight alone

Come hold my hand
And let me be the one
Don’t let go
Don’t let go


Whenever I look at you
I know what I have found
Whenever I think of you
The world stops spinning around (and around…)

Rest your head on my shoulder
And close your eyes
Together we grow stronger
Always on your side


Come hold my hand
I reach out for you
Don’t fight alone

Come hold my hand
And let me be the one
Don’t let go
Don’t let go

The Light

I finally found you
Like a pure stream in the desert
You’re the clear dew

Out in the darkness
You are the flashlight
Help me through the night

You are the window
I have to keep wide open 
To see the world in motion


I freeze without you
Your endless energy
Is all around me
 


You are the light that makes me want
To open my eyes
I wanna hold you but I know 
I’d pay the price



I’m lost without you
You’re the one that keeps me sane
You always show the way

But no one can touch you
You’re in a frenzy
And show no mercy

 

You are the light that makes me want
To open my eyes
I wanna hold you but I know 
I’d pay the price
