Lyrics

Ask me a question, I only want to talk

Expressing a willingness to engage in conversation

So get a little closer, cause time is all we got

Encouraging closeness as time is limited

Nothing is easy, nothing is free

Highlighting the challenges and costs of life

But it doesn't matter nothing to me

Indicating personal indifference to challenges

'Cause we could go anywhere

Emphasizing the freedom to go anywhere


Got nowhere to be

Stating a lack of specific obligations

It doesn't mean anything

Asserting that current circumstances are insignificant

These cities all become cities

Observing the transformation of places into cities

Though we were visiting

Reflecting on the transient nature of life

We are all just passing through it

Expressing the universal experience of passing through life

Hoping for someone to notice how we do it

Desiring recognition for one's way of living


I wanna be happy, I want to die in love

Expressing a desire for happiness and love

When I get the money, I'm going to burn it up

Planning to enjoy life when financial means are available

So we can go chase it

Expressing the intention to pursue excitement

After the thrill

Seeking thrills and experiences

Time isn't wasted it's trying to be filled

Viewing time as an opportunity to be filled with meaningful experiences

And we can be anywhere

Reiterating the freedom to be anywhere


There's nowhere to be

Reaffirming the absence of specific obligations

It doesn't mean anything

Reiterating the insignificance of current circumstances

These cities all become cities

Observing the transformation of places into cities (repeated)

Though we were visiting

Reflecting on the transient nature of life (repeated)

We are all just passing through it

Expressing the universal experience of passing through life (repeated)

Hoping for someone to notice how we do it

Desiring recognition for one's way of living (repeated)


It doesn't go out in a blaze of glory

Contrasting a subdued ending with a glorious one

It's all about how you ended up where

Highlighting the importance of the journey over the destination

Maybe we live just to tell our story

Suggesting that life is lived to share one's unique story

And how to get there, oh

Emphasizing the significance of the journey's details


It doesn't go out in a blaze of glory

Contrasting a subdued ending with a glorious one (repeated)

It's all about how you ended up where

Highlighting the importance of the journey over the destination (repeated)

Maybe we live just to tell our story

Suggesting that life is lived to share one's unique story (repeated)

And how to get there, oh

Emphasizing the significance of the journey's details (repeated)


There's nowhere to be

Reaffirming the absence of specific obligations (repeated)

It doesn't mean anything

Reiterating the insignificance of current circumstances (repeated)

These cities all become cities

Observing the transformation of places into cities (repeated)

Though we were visiting

Reflecting on the transient nature of life (repeated)

We are all just passing through it

Expressing the universal experience of passing through life (repeated)

Hoping for someone to notice

Desiring recognition for one's way of living (repeated)


There's nowhere to be

Reaffirming the absence of specific obligations (repeated)

It doesn't mean anything

Reiterating the insignificance of current circumstances (repeated)

These cities all become cities

Observing the transformation of places into cities (repeated)

Though we were visiting

Reflecting on the transient nature of life (repeated)

We are all just passing through it

Expressing the universal experience of passing through life (repeated)

Hoping for someone to notice how we do it

Desiring recognition for one's way of living (repeated)
