lyrics

i'm always sayin' i could never change
i'm always sayin' it's bound to end one way
hand on my heart and a foot in the grave
oh, what a pretty life i lead these days
i'm always fightin' with a ball n chain
i try to shake it off, but it always remains
i wanna loosen my grip on the reins
throw it all away and leave this place

i wanna leave this place

i'm always fightin' with a broken heart
i carried it around from the very start
but it's not such a tragedy
what was never there could never be taken from me
a buck short and a day too late
i try to be patient, but i can never wait
i wanna shake it up and shock my brain
throw it all away and leave this place

i wanna leave this place

i could try to ease the weight
but in my mind, i know my fate
we're just a rock floating through space
i wanna, i wanna leave this place

i never knew what i was meant to be
so i created my own reality
now i can't tell the difference
between what's real and what's inside my dreams
i wanna dance, i wanna play
i wanna stick it to the stars and fuck with fate
i wanna burn it down and watch the flames
throw it all away and leave this place

i could try to ease the weight
but in my mind, i know my fate
we're just a rock floating through space
i wanna, i wanna leave this place
