They say that outside
The past is not right
It only paints shades of the wind
The distance kills the ghosts
That weaken their hosts
I pray that I will shed this skin
When I walk out
(I'm leaving town)
I'm leaving town
(I'm leaving town)
I'll leave them behind
These d***ed ways of mine
They keep me chained to remains
Of a boy so lost
By his deepest inner thoughts
The home you once knew has lost its name
When he walked out
I'm leaving town
The past is not right
It only paints shades of the wind
The distance kills the ghosts
That weaken their hosts
I pray that I will shed this skin
When I walk out
(I'm leaving town)
I'm leaving town
(I'm leaving town)
I'll leave them behind
These d***ed ways of mine
They keep me chained to remains
Of a boy so lost
By his deepest inner thoughts
The home you once knew has lost its name
When he walked out
I'm leaving town
