She said, “kid, pack the car and take the keys,
Get out of here right now.”
I said, “why don’t you understand?”
I’ll take the one-way ticket in the end
So why can’t I do this, it’s my own decision
You’ll never understand.
Everyone will change, at least I’ll always be the same
I learned it from my friends
Oh what friends are they? My god, you look so great
Everytime I call your name
You always look at me the same
I’ll only have myself to blame
When we don’t come together I’ll tell you I love you
But hey I know that it’s okay, you never loved me anyway
I know that we could both be great
I try to be there as much as I can for you
Just as you guessed it, it never worked out
I’ll never make it, that’s what she said to me
I wont forget the words you say, they go right through me to this day
“You’ll never make it.”
That’s what she said, that’s what she said to me oh yeah
That night when we were all alone
It took everything for me to not just get up and leave
She knew what she had coming, I knew that we were done and
All you wanted was to make me run away
Well I’m not running from you
In the end I knew that we could be great
But it’s over so that must mean it’s fate
I’m not running, I’m not lying, I’m just trying to get the fuck out of here
I'm not running, I'm not crying, I'm just trying to get the fuck out of here.
She said, “kid, pack the car and take the keys,
Get out of here right now.”
