I was wide awake in a sleeping town
I was infected by its void
So I left that life back in 2K4
Couldn't take it anymore
While the small town boys were busy being bored
When you're pushed around
When you're on the ground
You got to learn your lesson fast
You just keep your mouth shut
Hold your head down
And pray that it won't last
All the things I was fighting to keep out
Always found a shortcut back in
Breaking plans that I was making
You could tell when I was faking
But it's OK
Are you leaving
Are you leaving me now?
If you leave you got to leave me now
Are you leaving
Are you leaving me now?
Are you telling me that this is the last time?
If you leave you got to leave me now?
When I left this town I was beaten down
I was ready to just give in
I was a small town boy with big ideas
But nostalgia always wins
And all this time you were always on my mind
So I'm driving by your house tonight
No one lives there anymore
It's so hard to imagine I once belonged in this complete unknown
And all the things we were fighting to keep out
Somehow found a shortcut back in
You could see when I was faking
Now my heart is slowly breaking
But it's OK
Are you leaving
Are you leaving me now?
If you leave you got to leave me now
Are you leaving
Are you leaving me now?
Can't you see I'm down on my knees now?
If you leave you got to leave me now?
