i couldn't wait to leave 6 months ago

Neck Deep

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.
