Lyrics

You took the first fucking chance to get out of town

You took the first opportunity to leave the town.

I'm cool with that but I still want you around

I'm okay with your decision, but I still want you to be part of my life.

I wouldn't say I'm stuck here but that's irrelevant

I wouldn't say I'm trapped here, but that doesn't matter.

Because you're free and clear

Because you are free from any ties or obligations.

But don't sweat it

But don't worry about it.

I'm just saying

I'm just expressing my thoughts.

I couldn't really make a case for staying

I couldn't provide a compelling reason to stay.

I don't think I'm wrong, I don't think you're wrong

I don't believe I'm right, and I don't think you're wrong either.

In the worst fucking case we could lose ourselves

In the worst-case scenario, we might lose ourselves individually.

Each of us in a personal hell

Each of us may end up in our own personal hell.

We can take the heartache

We can endure the heartache.

As we stumble our way

As we navigate through our past mistakes.

Through our old mistakes

Reflecting on our old errors.

And I get it

And I understand.

I don't regret it

I don't regret it.

I just want to be the one who said it

I just want to be the one who expressed these feelings.

Right or wrong it's different when you're gone

Whether right or wrong, it feels different when you're not here.

We made a hell of a mess out of this poor town

We've made a significant mess of this town.

We've been given the chance to spread it around

We now have the opportunity to extend this chaos elsewhere.

We do things the hard way

We choose to do things the challenging way.

We all fall apart at our own pace

We all experience our breakdowns at our own pace.

Ugly bedrooms bred bad habits

Unpleasant living spaces fostered negative habits.

Made it hard to see through all the static

Made it difficult to see through all the disturbances.

Does it ever end? It never fucking ends

Does the turmoil ever come to an end? It seems never-ending.

We saw it coming

We foresaw the troubles from a long distance.

From a thousand miles away

It's a brand new day.

It's a brand new day

We all find our way, indicating a fresh start.

And we all find our way (home)

And we all find our way home.

(Home) is where the heart stays

Home is where the heart remains.

When the heart strays

Even when the heart wanders.

Home is where we are today

Home is where we are at this moment.
