[Intro]
I need to leave Michigan and everything I haven't done
And, oh, I'd die trying to be something worthwhile
[Chorus]
I need to leave Michigan and everything I haven't done
And, oh, I'd die trying to be something worthwhile
I need to leave Michigan and everything I haven't done
And, oh, I'd die trying to be something worthwhile
[Verse 1]
I promise so much of myself that it makes it hard to breathe
I feel the weight of what I say because it's never what I mean
We all need some direction
(Oh, I lie to make myself believe that I'm worthwhile)
And I lie to myself
I'm sick of this dependence
I'm sick of being helped
(I'm sick of being helped)
[Chorus]
I need to leave Michigan and everything I haven't done
And, oh, I'd die trying to be something worthwhile
I need to leave Michigan and everything I haven't done
And, oh, I'd die trying to be something worthwhile
[Bridge]
Open wounds, they turn to scars
With time, they heal like broken hearts
We're so messed up living our lives
That I can barely sleep at night
[Bridge]
Open wounds, they turn to scars
With time, they heal like broken hearts
We're so messed up living our lives
That I can barely sleep at night
[Verse 2]
All I see is where I am, and everywhere I'm not
I feel the place that I have started is the place that I will rot
I can't stay standing still too long, I'm afraid I'll never leave
(Everywhere looks better than right here, oh I swear)
I'm afraid of myself and where I want to be
[Chorus]
I need to leave Michigan and everything I haven't done
And, oh, I'd die trying to be something worthwhile
I need to leave Michigan and everything I have not done
And, oh, I'd die trying to be something worthwhile
