There's the artsy kids dancing underneath the college
and the scottish girl, who didn't have the knowledge
with the apple boy who couldn't mouth shut
all looking for their excuses to stay up
who would think
that in a city where I don't know any one or anything
I'd find it
and not even know what it was
We left this place a mess
not just our rooms along with our heads
and now I'm leaving with an accent
thats not enthusiastic
But maybe this was exactly what we needed
some new people and a little bit of drinking
cause I don't want to go home, that
(Shits for the birds)
And if Derrel taught me one thing its that
you cant always get what you want
and thats the best advice that I've heard since
(Get out of Michigan for the winter)
We'll be back after
we get our lives figured out and have ourselves a banter
What I do tonight
could mean the rest of my life
We left this place a mess
not just our rooms along with our heads
and now I'm leaving with an accent
thats not enthusiastic
(chorus x 4)
Say one more thing
before you leave
I haven't heard enough of it yet
and I want to hear my name again(x2)
It almost feels like I'm leaving home
But it's only for a little while
and I left a few things so
hold on to them hold on to them
It almost feels like I'm leaving home
But it's only for a little while
and I left a few things so
hold on to them so I cant hold you back
