lyrics

If you're not where you wanted 'cause you got what you bought with your time
If you sleep through the daylight, 'cause you wasted away in your prime

I don't wanna be a distant memory

Yeah we're up all night 'cause we're chasing a dream
Yeah we're up just you and me

So much for the sunset, hanging in the back room begging for a bump singing
"Hey girl have we met yet?", meet me in the back room I'm dying for a jump, singing

I don't wanna be a distant memory

Yeah we're up all night 'cause we're chasing a dream
Yeah we're up just you and me
But I'm a devil and a liar being eaten by a fire
And I just can't stand the heat

All the days that you spent wishing you were in Hollywood
Could've been all the days you were hustling, making it there
All the times you were too turnt up to stand
You were proving to the world that you just don't care

Yeah we're up all night 'cause we're chasing a dream
Yeah we're up just you and me
But I'm a devil and a liar being eaten by a fire
And I just can't stand the heat

Yeah we're up all night 'cause we're chasing a dream
Yeah we're up just you and me
