[Verse 1]
This town will never change
People come and go, it's all the same
Speed the roads on our doubtin' days
To any place that's far away
I never learned anybody's name
We all vowed that we wouldn't stay
Kissin' signs on the interstate
All we do for now is sit and wait
Ahh
[Pre-Chorus]
In our idle town, ahh
In our idle town
[Chorus]
Yeah, we invent our own little games (In our idle town)
When the light's out at the stadium, hey (In our idle town)
Makin' life a spinning arcade (In our idle town)
And curfew's at midnight, we watch the sunrise
We watch the sunrise
We watch the sun
[Verse 2]
Springtime when the air is thin
We're gettin' antsy and they're noticin'
While everybody's off partying
We're watchin' stars over ice cream
And now we're kickin' up to seventh gear
And we're breathin' in the atmosphere
And I don't even need a sip of beer
Yeah, I can feel it ohh-ohh-all
[Pre-Chorus]
In our idle town, ahh
In our idle town
[Chorus]
Yeah, we invent our own little games (In our idle town)
When the light's out at the stadium, hey (In our idle town)
Makin' life a spinning arcade (In our idle town)
And curfew's at midnight, we watch the sunrise
We watch the sunrise
We watch the sun (Sun)
[Bridge]
And they watched the sunrise
Blinkin' out of red eyes and sore minds
The airplanes keep flyin' by and they cry
'Cause they've never even touched the sky
No, they'll never even touch the sky
[Chorus]
Yeah, we invent our own little games (In our idle town)
And everybody's tryna escape (In our idle town)
Killin' time at the yellow café (In our idle town)
And curfew's at midnight (In our idle town)
[Outro]
Yeah, I think that we'll all be okay (In our idle town)
The idle town will stay as it stays (In our idle town)
And everyone I love's in this place (In our idle town)
So curfew's at midnight, we watch the sunrise
