Fair-weather friends in this city I’m in
This place is fucking littered with them
A piss poor excuse for somebody who cares
But when I need someone, no one is ever there
High hopes in low places
Same dreams with familiar faces
Your life is yours, do as you please
But I’m gone, cause this place was never home for me
Live the life of mediocrity
Just doesn’t sit right with me
But as soon as I leave, you turn your back on me
Fuck me for living life to the fullest
The days I want to end so quick feels like they take god damn years
But I want to escape this place so bad
It’s the breeding ground for my greatest fear
The fear of settling for less
The way my ‘friends’ all did
These flickering street lights
should give up on this town
Cause this place is worthless
It’s better off burned to the fucking ground.
