Pack yourself a toothbrush, dear
Pack yourself a favorite blouse
Take a withdrawal slip
Take all of your savings out
Cause if we don't leave this town
We might never make it out
I was not born to drown
Baby, come on
Forget what Father Brennan said
We were not born in sin
Leave a note on your bed
Let your mother know you're safe
And by the time she wakes
We'll have driven through the state
We'll have driven through the night
Baby, come on

If the sun don't shine
On me today
And if the subway's flooded
Bridges break
Will you lay yourself
Down and dig your grave
Or will you rail against the dying day




































I couldn't even see the sky
How do you pay the rent?
Is it your parents?
Or is it hard to be
Holding the atmosphere?
I don't wanna live like this


If the sun don't shine
On me today


If the subway's blood and the bridges break
Jesus Christ can't save me tonight
But on your dress, yes, wear something nice
Decide on me, yeah, decide on us
Oh, yeah, Lord, yeah, Lord
Pack yourself a toothbrush, dear
Pack yourself a favorite blouse
Take a withdrawal slip
Take all of your savings out
Cause if we don't leave this town
We'll never be free
We might never make it out
