Please remember the nights that we spent 

In the city where you lay 

We were young and nearly famous

But lighting strikes and building fall 

And everything changed 

Common dakota tell me you dont wish i was still the same



I know a man dressed as a woman

Heels, curly wig and nails

Fell for a boy who sold him powder and pills

And the younger boy

With the older man

He made it all wrong

And in dakota these awful things burn away with the sun

Yes in dakota this awful things are gone with morning sun



There was a boy who sang his song just different

So they stabbed him in the arms

Blood washed down him like a faucet

He cried for help

And no one came

He died in the rain

And in dakota one day he will wake up unchanged

Yes in dakota one day YOU will wake up unchained



Please remember the nights we spent alone

In the city where you lay

We are young and nearly famous

But thunder cracks and buildings burn

Everything will change

Common dakota i know we can always be the same

And in dakota i know we can always be the same

Yes in dakota its ok to feel a little strange
