I'm cuttin loose dead ends.
What's happened to my friends?
They've all gone and left me behind.
I take the long way home.
I'm turning off my phone.
I lack the strength to hear you cry tonight.
It's not far to the state line.
Caffeine and cigarettes, I'll be there in no time.
I'm not dead, I'm just in Knoxville, TN,
which is a thousand miles away from where I'm supposed to be.

Don't say goodbye.
There's nothing good about it this time.
Don't be here in the morning, 'cause I'll be gone.

Frustration fills my lungs.
My fists roll up in spite.
The way you act tomorrow won't change how I feel tonight.
Your words are a broken record playing in my head.
If I wake up in this town, I'd rather be dead.
Turn off the lights and say goodbye 'til in the morning,
but in the morning I'll be gone.
I took a chance and fell in love, but now it's boring.
I just hoped that you would be the one.

I'm cuttin loose dead ends.
What's happened to my friends?
They've all gone and left me behind.
I take the long way home. I'm turning off my phone.
I lack the strength to hear you cry tonight.


Sure, you're mine...
but only when you have the time for me.
It's too late to say you're sorry,
but feelings change, and so do expectations, don't they?
But you're sorry.

Don't say goodbye.
There's nothing good about it this time.
Don't be here in the morning, 'cause I'll be gone.

So I guess that I'll tell you just like you told me.
It's not the end of the world, so don't let it be.
This is your second chance in two days now.
Nothing you can say is going to make me turn this car around.
I'm so tired of being lonely.
I'm so tired of being alone.
I'm so tired, so tired of you.

Don't say goodbye.
There's nothing good about it this time.
Don't be here in the morning, 'cause I'll be gone.
It's pretty bad when growing up means falling down.
