# Richland **[Verse 1]** Never really noticed how Our smiles don't reach our eyes I bet they don't When all we have are alibis Every street remembers names Nobody says out loud Everybody knows the truth Nobody draws a crowd **[Chorus]** So if I gave you a chance to go back in time And be born again Not the victim of crime And live in a place where the rich go to die You'd wanna know how to get there Right? It's called Richland **[Verse 2]** If you heard it from a birdie The people there are happy I bet they are When everybody has a Ferrari No sirens in the middle night No flowers on the curb No one says, "It could've been me" Like it's just another word **[Chorus]** So if I gave you a chance to go back in time And be born again Not the victim of crime And live in a place where the rich go to die You'd wanna know how to get there Right? It's called Richland **[Bridge]** I wanna be there Wanna be there Wanna be there Wanna be there Wake without a reason To count what might go wrong I wanna be there Wanna be there Wanna be there Wanna be there Where tomorrow isn't borrowed From surviving one more dawn I wanna be there Wanna be there Wanna be there Wanna be there Just long enough to find out If peace feels strange at first I wanna be there Wanna be there Wanna be there Wanna be there Or if you never notice When you've never known the hurt **[Final Chorus]** So if I gave you a chance to go back in time And be born again Not the victim of crime And live in a place where the rich go to die You'd wanna know how to get there Right? Maybe it's only a story Maybe it's only a lie Still I'd spend forever Trying to arrive It's called Richland.
