I don't ever want to let you down

I don't ever want to leave this town

Cause after all

This city never sleeps at night

I don't ever want to let you down

I don't ever want to leave this town

Cause after all

This city never sleeps at night

I don't ever want to let you down

I don't ever want to leave this town

Cause after all

This city never sleeps at night

So this is what you meant

When you said that you were spent

And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit, right to the top

Don't hold back

Packing my bags and giving the Academy a rain check

I don't ever want to let you down

I don't ever want to leave this town

Cause after all

This city never sleeps at night

It's time to begin, isn't it?

I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit

I'm just the same as I was

Now don't you understand

That I'm never changing who I am

I don't ever want to let you down

I don't ever want to leave this town

Cause after all

This city never sleeps at night

I don't ever want to let you down

I don't ever want to leave this town

Cause after all

This city never sleeps at night

So this is where you fell

And I am left to sell

The path to heaven runs through miles of clouded hell right to the top

Don't look back

Turning to rags and giving the commodities a rain check

I don't ever want to let you down

I don't ever want to leave this town

Cause after all

This city never sleeps at night

It's time to begin, isn't it?

I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit

I'm just the same as I was

Now don't you understand

That I'm never changing who I am

I don't ever want to let you down

I don't ever want to leave this town

Cause after all

This city never sleeps at night

I don't ever want to let you down

I don't ever want to leave this town

Cause after all

This city never sleeps at nigh
