I'm cutting loose dead ends What's happened to my friends? They've all gone and left me behind I take the long way home I'm cutting off my phone I lack the strength to hear you cry tonight It's not far to the state line Caffeine and cigarettes I'll be there in no time I'm not dead, I'm just in Knoxville, Tenneessee Which is a thousand miles away from where I'm suppose to be Don't say goodbye, there's nothing good about it this time Don't be here in the morning cause I'll be gone Frustration fills my lungs My fists roll up in spite The way you act tomorrow won't change how I feel tonight Your words, a broken record playing in my head If I wake up in this town, I'd rather be dead I'd rather be dead Turn off the lights and say good-bye till in the morning, but in the morning I'll be gone I took a chance and fell in love, but now it's boring I just hoped you would be the one I'm cutting loose dead ends What's happened to my friends? They've all gone and left me behind
I take the long way home I'm cutting off my phone I lack the strength to hear you cry tonight Sure...you're mine, but only when you have the time for me And it's too late to say you're sorry, you're sorry But feelings change, and so do expectations, don't they? But you're sorry Don't say good-bye, there's nothing good about it this time Don't be here in the morning cause I'll be gone So I guess that I'll tell you just like you told me It's not the end of the world, so don't let it be Don't let it be Don't let it be This is your second, second chance in two days now Nothing you can say is gonna make me turn this car around I'm so tired of being lonely I'm so tired of living alone I'm so tired, so tired of you Don't say good-bye, there's nothing good about it this time Don't be here in the morning cause I'll be gone Don't say good-bye, there's nothing good about it this time It's pretty bad when growing up means falling down
