Lyrics The Starting Line - Keane
This
town
was
a
lovers
stage
But
now
you
can't
recognise
The
streetlights
that
are
daggers
to
your
eyes
You
can't
find
your
bearings
You're
slipping
into
the
ground
The
scene
has
no
color
and
no
sound
Do
you
still
believe
in
me
After
the
things
I've
done?
Do
you
fear
for
what
we
have
become?
The
ground
is
uneven
We
stumble
from
day
to
day
But
shelter
where
it's
easy
I
know
your
feet
are
like
lead
But
you
gotta
get
underway
Drag
your
heart
up
to
the
starting
line
Forget
the
ghosts
that
make
you
old
before
your
time
It's
too
easy
to
get
left
behind
I
know,
you've
been
kicked
around
But
tie
up
your
thoughts
and
lay
them
down
on
me
Each
heart
is
a
paper
kite
blown
around
by
the
breeze
Love
won't
rest
'til
it
brings
you
to
your
knees
Some
find
it
easy
Some
will
never
even
know
You
think
you've
done
your
journey
Then
you
stumble
and
find
that
there's
such
a
long
way
to
go
Drag
your
heart
up
to
the
starting
line
Forget
the
ghosts
that
make
you
old
before
your
time
It's
too
easy
to
get
left
behind
I
know,
you've
been
kicked
around
You
wanna
be
lost
and
not
be
found
But
let's
take
the
back
way
into
town
Drink
to
the
bad
times
Lay
them
down
on
me
Girl,
I
still
believe
in
you
You're
too
good
to
fall
so
low
We're
gonna
find
a
better
life
I
know
Things
will
be
clearer
As
soon
as
we
make
a
start
We'll
be
that
much
nearer
We're
too
old
to
just
stand
here
waiting
to
break
apart
Drag
your
heart
up
to
the
starting
line
Forget
the
ghosts
that
make
you
old
before
your
time
It's
too
easy
to
get
left
behind
I
know,
you've
been
kicked
around
But
tie
up
your
thoughts
and
lay
them
down
on
me
On
me
On
me
