Leaving This Freaking Town

Tekst utworu

[Verse 1] I’m wrapping up a fast I never chose Counting every mile but losing roads I don’t even know when to look back The rearview keeps folding into black [Pre-Chorus] I’ve worn this town like a borrowed coat Too tight at the seams, too hard to float [Chorus] I’m always going, going, going I’m leaving this freaking town No map, no blessing, no one Gets to pull me down I’m gonna be a cool guy In my own life now No one gets to parent me No one gets to kill me out [Verse 2] The diner sign buzzes over empty chairs Same old questions hanging in the air I put my last ten dollars in the tank And drive before I have time to think [Pre-Chorus] If I’m a mess, then let me choose the shape I’d rather break free than sit and wait [Chorus] I’m always going, going, going I’m leaving this freaking town No map, no blessing, no one Gets to pull me down I’m gonna be a cool guy In my own life now No one gets to parent me No one gets to kill me out [Bridge] Don’t call my name from the porch tonight I’ve got one match and a dashboard light The person you knew is already gone I’m learning how to carry on [Final Chorus] I’m always going, going, going I’m leaving this freaking town No map, no blessing, no one Gets to pull me down I’m gonna be a cool guy In my own life now No one gets to parent me No one gets to kill me out [Outro] I don’t know when to look back So I won’t look back
