Neck Deep - I Couldn't Wait To Leave Months Ago

 

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 bite 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
