This Town isn’t Mine Anymore
(Verse One)
I had memories before you
But I didn't pay any much mind
I had decades in my rear view
These eighteen months haven't been kind
You told me when you left her
Not one thing would be the same
I didn't get the concept
Now my finger traces broken frames
(Pre Chorus)
Who knew
When we met we'd end up here
You knew
How to soothe while crafting fear
Who knew
That I'd get the strength to leave
I knew
There was more tricks inside your sleeve
(Chorus)
The past is painted
Onto every place you go
There's not a future we should fight for
Without the growth
And your demons had to kill my light
Because with mine
Yours don't shine as bright
Went from flying to dying
On the blood soaked bathroom floor
(Post Chorus)
I'm working through this ending
But I wish there was never a start
This is what will happen
When I'm playing roulette with my heart
(Verse Two)
I had happiness before you
But it hadn't been easy to find
It took years of self improvement
Didn't see that till now, I was blind
You told me when it ended
Don't look for me in public
They said I should be scared but
That wasn't the part I found troubling
(Pre Chorus)
Who knew
When we met we'd end up here
You knew
How to soothe while crafting fear
Who knew
That I'd get the strength to leave
I knew
There was more tricks inside your sleeve
(Chorus)
The past is painted
Onto every place you go
There's not a future we should fight for
Without the growth
And your demons had to kill my light
Because with mine
Yours don't shine as bright
Went from flying to dying
On the blood soaked bathroom floor
(Post Chorus)
I'm working through this ending
But I wish there was never a start
This is what will happen
When I'm playing roulette with my heart
(Bridge)
I brought you to this town
When you were without a home
When you slept inside my bed
In your sleep your fingers roamed
How you said you wanted space
But, your breath was on my neck
And if I brought it up
You would tell me to forget
When your name was on the lease
You act like I don't exist
And now that you left my life
I ripped my heart right off my wrist
You took everything from me
Really thought this town was mine
And it wasn't even ours
Now, I lie and say I'm fine
