the sun don't set in gettysville
the place that I call home
a thousand people walk these streets
but we're still all alone
this city's isolation
like the drug that paves the roads
take the subway uptown
to my mother's place
she's got a thousand friends
but all they know of her's, her face
all alone inside her head
her thoughts begin to race
the place that I call home
a thousand people walk these streets
but we're still all alone
this city's isolation
like the drug that paves the roads
take the subway uptown
to my mother's place
she's got a thousand friends
but all they know of her's, her face
all alone inside her head
her thoughts begin to race
live it up, live it up they say
live it up, no time to waste your life away
next door to me the ceiling leaks
cracks stretch across the walls
like skeletons of dreams deceased
too brittle to evolve
he lies beneath his plastic sheets
bitter and blind to all
shadows beneath his sunken eyes
now taint all that he sees
like burned and blackened photographs
life's easier a dream
he settles for a cheap escape
forgets all he believed
live it up, live it up they say
live it up, no time to waste your life away
i watched my whole world crumble
as i dried my mother's tears
and learned to never stumble
as i calmed my father's fears
they say i've seen a lot
they say i'm wise beyond my years
though my castle may have crumbled
i won't face the world alone
the youth has seen the rubble
and we're ready for the load
as this city burns
my generation's shouting in the roads
live it up, live it up we say
live it up, thing's havent always been this way
live it up, we better turn this boat around
if we keep on following the gold
someday we are gonna run aground
live it up, live it up we say
live it up, 'cause now its in our hands to make change
