This Town

Verse: 1 I found my fear in the ashes of this town as it burned When the smoke entered my lungs, I suffocated on lessons I learned Made it out of the fire, ran away just in time (My home, this place will never change. I know what's best. I just can't stay) Tried to kill my desire, tried to hold me here all of my life (All these memories won't be erased, but it's time to make my own way) Suddenly I saw everything that I never could have done with you here Don't turn around now there's no road back home (No fear to hold you back, just say you want it, say you want it more) The bridges all burned down, everything you know is lost Nobody ever leaves But this town won't take the best of me Instrumental ////// ////// Verse: 2 You dream about (every hope) hidden away (but just below) The surface of your skin, so coarse but oh so thin You're terrified (of letting go) Nothing is reaped until it's sown No time to give in this one life we live Moving forward is not failing Don't turn around now there's no road back home (No fear to hold you back, just say you want it, say you want it more) The bridges all burned down, everything you know is lost Nobody ever leaves But this town won't take the best of me Instrumental ////// ////// ////// ////// Bridge When you feel your heart pumping in your chest And ignites the spark that you've always felt Do you trust yourself? Don't push those thoughts away Can you feel the life flowing through your veins? It never mattered what the voices say Life's not about how you fall (It's about how many times you can get up) You made it this far with the courage you had You carried the weight of it all Every dead end just begins a new path Oh, the places we'll go
