lyrics

Lyrics:

I’m getting out of the city.
I’m getting out of the city.

My best friend had a baby,
and these streets make me feel so old.
Never really felt the need to plant my family tree—
cause there ain’t that much of me to go around.
“When you gonna finally settle down?”
She always asked me.

I used to, used to,
I used to do a lot of things.
But lately I, I don’t really try as hard,
As I used to used to.

Feeling tame,
and my Saturday nights are kinda lame.
Video games and diet pepsi—it don’t taste the same.
I’m getting out of the city,
living here used to make sense when I was 25.
But everybody moved away—and I just kinda stayed behind.
I drove past our old school and they finally tore down the old sign.

And they're gonna tear me down.

I just got a brand new phone,
and I'm sorry but I don’t have a clue who you are.
Could be Jenny or John,
I haven’t spoken to you in so long.

What’s it like living in San Diego?
Do you still play the guitar?
Sorry to hear about your mom,
she was so strong.
I really tried to pick up the phone but it hurt too much.
And I promise I'll do a better job of keeping in touch,
cause I miss you.
I miss you miss you miss so much.
