lyrics

This city's getting the best of me
I can't face waking up on these same sheets for another day in this place.

I'm too familiar with everything that's around me
All my failings and shortcomings originated here
There streets are like cages.

Cardiff meant no harm at all to a boy who never could fall
But since this boy lost his balance he doesn't know where his home is.
Don't get me wrong I love this city, it just isn't meant for me
It's given me nothing but a place for my dreams to die.

When I look back at the best years of my life,
Will the memories be clouded by the tears in my eyes?
A shout out to all my friends who helped my live in my own skin
If it weren't for you I'd have gone already.
Born, raised and buried on the same damn street
Isn't how I want my life to be.
