I'm a False Start on a Jukebox, a broken heart after last call
It's lights up, I'm locked in, and now its time to settle up

No slow emotion anymore
I know the secret of this town
Faster faster you're to the floor
It sets you up just to knock you down

Tomorrow starts when I decide to settle up with everything I hide
Things I want, the things I miss, a neon sign I can't resist

I'm drawing stick figures on a napkin of you and me
They're not your friends but they'll be around
To raise a glass and watch you drown

No slow emotion any more
I know the secret of this town
Where every kid's in love with death
The boredom brags a familiar sound

No slow emotion anymore
I know the secret of this town
Faster faster you're ignored
Set them up just to knock them down
