I couldn't sleep

Took a walk down Second Avenue



Sick of dreaming dreams that never come true

One way street and I know where its leading to

There's a "For Sale" sign on the front door of the city hall

The subway line got graffiti crawling off the wall

I could take a hit but I don't want to take the fall



That's just one side of the story

In this two story town



Chorus:

It's just the same old sights

And the same old sounds

I want to take my car and drive out of this two story town

It's the same old ship going down

I'm going down, down ,down, down, down

It's a two story town



There's a girl that I sleep with

She's got ecstasy eyes

He promised her roses and American pie

I called her and my demons

And I kissed them both goodbye



Seven days of Monday morning

In a two story town



Chorus:

It's just the same old sights

And the same old sounds

I want to take my horse and ride him off this merry-go-round

It's the same old ship going down

I'm going down, down, down, down, down

It's a two story town



One shot to make a move now

The ghosts are calling me out



Guitar solo



And me I'm just one story

In a two story town

But you're never going to find me in the lost and found



Chorus:

It's just the same old sights

And the same old sounds

I want to take my horse and ride him off this merry-go-round

It's the same old ship going down

I'm going down, down, down, down, down

It's a two story town



Chorus 2:

It's just the same old sights and the same old sounds

I want to take my horse and ride him off this merry-go-round

I won't give in and I won't back down

I'm going down, down, down, down down

I ain't going down, down, down, down, down

I'm never going down, down, down, down, down

It's a two-story town
