[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 lights out at the stadium fade (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 lights out at the stadium fade (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
