We work until we’re shattered in this basement
Counting the tips we made
And then drank away
The smoke sticks like a second skin
That I shed time and time again
Until the buzz kicks in
And the streetlights shine
Like they know how it ends
If this city keeps pushing me out
I’d like to see it live without me
Just give me one good reason
I should stick around
I’ve been living in a make or break
I’ve been giving just to see you take
I hear it in the voices of my friends
As if they’re having way more fun
On the other side of the 401
If this city keeps pushing me out
I’d like to see it live without me
We work until we’re shattered in this basement It’s 3 in the morning
I told you before It’s the last time I’m giving in
If this city keeps pushing me out
I’d like to see it live without me
