From up here this town don"t look so bad,
I"m looking down at this place I hate and at least for a second it seems okay,
But I"m not getting over it,
Getting used to it,
It"s been so long since everything seemed to fit ,
And it"s not a case of being scared or undeserving,
I"m just questioning the purpose of leaving what I thought was pulling me down.
But I"ll b*** my tongue and grit my teeth.
I"ll leave my heart where I leave my home,
I never thought that I"d be on my own,
I never knew that I had this in me,
I kinda think it came all too quickly.
But I know that growing up"s a part of growing up,
So I guess I"ll just face the facts and throw my bags up on this broken back.
I"ll learn from my mistakes and find a place where I can breathe.
Somewhere that I can breathe.
I"ll miss the smell of the rain on my road,
The dirty streets of the town I call home,
My friends that kept me from feeling alone,
And the broken promises you made that forced me to grow.
And I"ll miss the paths I"ve walked a thousand times,
The mistakes that I made, the lessons learned from the nights
That I spent with my friends in this town I resent,
All "cause this is the last of time that I"ll spend around here.
