lyrics

She drove her leather jacket f’n classic Chevrolet with vanity plates
When she left me standing silent on the corner of 16th & State
I was lost in my hometown
And I didn’t know what I could do

I started to panic, f’n classic, you can see the lines on my face
There’s gray in my hair from the times that I stared off in space
I was lost in my hometown
And I didn’t know what I could do
Guess I’m on my own now
This town’s different when it don’t got you

I tried to be happy with you not around
But all of my smiles felt like repurposed frowns

It felt automatic, out of habit, the way that you told me farewell
You can leave with my heart but don’t keep that part to yourself
When you’re lost in your hometown
That doesn’t mean that things have changed
You’re on your own now
This town’s different but it all stayed the same

I tried to be happy with you not around
But all of my smiles felt like repurposed frowns
Lying back then feels like loving you now
Truth is hard but it pays to go through it
Life is hard but it pays to go through
