The Starting Line Lyrics - Strangeland - Keane

This town was a lovers stage 

But now you can't recognise 

The streetlights that are daggers to your eyes 

You can't find your bearings 

You're slipping into the ground 

The scene has no colour and no sound 

Do you still believe in me, 

After the things I've done? 

Do you fear for what we have become? 

The ground is uneven 

You stumble from day to day 

You tread where it's easy 

Although your feet are like lead 

But you gotta get underway

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Drag your heart up to the starting line 

Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time 

It's too easy to get left behind 

I know you've been kicked around 

But tie up your thoughts and lay them down on me 

Each heart is a paper kite blown around by the breeze 

Love won't rest 'til it brings you to your knees 

Some find it easy, some will never even know 

You think you've done your journey 

Then you stumble and find that there's such a long way to go 

Drag your heart up to the starting line 

Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time 

It's too easy to get left behind 

I know you've been kicked around 

You wanna be lost and not be found 

Let's take the back way into town 

Drink to the bad times 

Lay them down on me 

Photos 

Girl, I still believe in you 

You're too good to fall so low 

We're gonna find a better life I know 

Things will be clearer 

As soon as we make a start 

We'll be that much nearer 

We're too old to just stand here waiting to break apart 

Drag your heart up to the starting line 

Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time 

It's too easy to get left behind 

I know you've been kicked around 

But tie up your thoughts and lay them down on me 

On me, on me...
