lyrics

Well I guess
This is where
We part our ways
Like the end of a movie I saw once
And I bet that you can guess
That it didn't end happy
But I guess that's how it goes sometimes
And I've seen
This movie
Too many times before
And I'll watch until the end
And I know what you say because
I always quote it with my friends
Well I guess
This is where
We part our ways
And go on to do better things
Everybody's got a life
And I watched as the innocents died
Oh it died
We grew up
We moved out
Followed our own paths
But I'll always drag my feet behind
And I'll go to bed
In the clothes I wore today
Because I never
I never was a fan of change
Or the things that it always leaves behind
No I never
I never want to feel that again
And I can't say
That I'm tired of my home town
Or if it's just tired of me
Because no matter how much
I love roaming her streets
Oh she'll never
She'll never show an ounce of love
To me
Oh she'll never love me
These lights in
Your neighborhood
Never seemed so much brighter
When we were together
But now that
You've been gone
They never seemed so much dimmer
Never seemed so much dimmer
These lights in
Your neighborhood
Never seemed so much brighter
When we were together
But now that
You've been gone
They never seemed so much dimmer
And I think they're going out
