Away from The Outsider by Escape the Stake

i don’t know how you’re doing
i don’t think that i want to
so tell me why i can’t stop thinking about you
you carved pieces out of me and hung them on your wall
and you left me standing there with nobody to call
and my old friends are still your friends
and i have to hear about you from all of them
i got too fucked up at that party, tried to walk myself home in the wind
i just can’t say goodbye to your beauty
and the way that you shot words right through me
why did i have to comfort you then, when you knew what had just happened to me?

i’m far away from you now
i’ll never go back to that town
never go back to that town
i tried to write it all down
cause i know that ghosts stick around
i’ll never go back to that town
never go back to that town

the tattoo that i gave you
i hope you don’t get rid of it
and i hope you spend a million nights remembering what you did
i think I’m worse off having known you
and i’ll keep writing stupid songs cause i just don’t know what else to do
i don’t talk shit about you
you’re just mad that i tell the truth
and you’ve got everyone around you fooled
they really think they know you
i knew you once
i was scared to call it love
but if you called right now i’d answer so i think that’s what it was

i’m far away from you now
i’ll never go back to that town
never go back to that town
i tried to write it all down
cause i know that ghosts stick around
i’ll never go back to that town
never go back to that town
go back to that town
go back, back, back to that town
