If I left tomorrow would you notice? This familiar town's getting the best of me Whispers on sidewalks Steady shit talk when you're not around The story turns so many directions Getting lost doesn't sound too bad Maybe I'll see you somewhere down the road If not, that's all right either way Open your eyes quit being blinded By the nonsense wrong does bring Keep facing forward 'cause you're falling backward without any idea That the people smiling haven't a clue who'll be popular next year Only fools will rush for the gold If only they knew it's painted yellow Quick stop the bottom drops lower than you want to feel Might as well kneel First start blown apart begging for another chance to correct mistakes Why should I try fixing broken wings you'll never fly? With bricks strapped on your waste line sinking in mud and tears Move a little faster or you'll get run over Pick up the speed or else head for cover Once again Map out a safe route don't travel on a clouded mind leave worries behind There are enough situations to face save your strength I'm saving mine You've latched on this long yet your grip seems to loosen weaken Slipping through the palms of a gentle hand I thought you were a careful man Farewell old city At least for right now See you soon Sooner than I want
