Lyrics:

(Always a champion to me)

I console myself on waking up
This town will stay the same way, stay the same way
Grass-stains and fireworks on downtown summer nights
And when it took me back I had to ask
Oh, lost love, what can I say, what can I say?
Break hearts in living rooms
And drive back home to talk to you
Midwestern nights, are you following me?
'Cause it's been four long years
Oh god, that constant change
Some city lights and a similar heartbeat
I guess I've grown a bit, but sometimes you've just got to
Change a lot, change a lot
You've gotta break a lot, break a lot
Gotta kill all your darlings
I know that it's hard but you'll gain a lot, gain a lot
So when you're on the spot
Fight with some soul
'Cause you're always a champion to me (always a champion to me)
(Always a champion)
I wouldn't change one thing on growing up
I learned to love the bad parts, deal the sad parts
Things tend to turn out pretty great, okay, okay
And if I ever got a second chance
I'd know I'd never need a second chance
I'm ready, set, go. Clever, right? No
I'll never grow up, not one bit
Midwestern nights, are you following me?
'Cause it's been four long years
Oh god, that constant change
Some city lights and a similar heartbeat
I guess I've grew a little bit, but some things won't
So change a lot, change a lot
You've gotta break a lot, break a lot
Look deep inside and I think that you'll find what you're searching for, searching for
So when you're on the floor
Fight with some soul
'Cause you're always a champion to me
Silver, silver and gold
The people I know and all my best friends
Alone, my heart tends to grow
I look at the sky and what I live for
When I'm alone in Indiana
The amber waves crash down into horizons
When I am home in Indiana
My small town dreams shine brighter than the moonlight
When I'm alone in Indiana
The amber waves crash down into horizons
When I am home in Indiana
My small town dreams shine brighter than the moonlight
When I'm alone in Indiana
The amber waves crash down into horizons
When I am home in Indiana
My small town dreams shine brighter than the moonlight
When I'm alone in Indiana
(Silver, silver and gold)
The amber waves crash down into horizons (the people I know and all my best friends)
When I am home in Indiana
(My heart tends to grow)
(I look at the sky and what I live like)
My small town dreams shine brighter than the moonlight
When I'm alone in Indiana
(Silver, silver and gold)
The amber waves crash down into horizons
When I am home in Indiana
My small town dreams shine brighter than the moonlight
