I've Gone Away

Lie to me

Cheat on me

Call me anything you want

I don't care anymore

I'm done with it

Ran out the door

Put the pedal to the metal

I'm not around anymore



I've gone away



Gone to stay

In about 2 months from today

I won't be around

Not anymore

Leave this place

Shut the door

Sick of the rumors

Sick of the people

I want to get away

So now I've gone away



I've gone away



So when I say that I miss your face

Know it's not a memory that will last

It'll fade along with the past

I'll start a-new today

When I step out my front door

I won't be the kid you thought you know

I won't be him anymore

It's time to change

It's time to grow up into something new

Someone who is respected by myself

Who is looked up to by everyone else

I want to be a model

For those kids who grew up just like me

I want them to know there is still hope in life

That memories will fade



I've gone away

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I get more sick of this town with each day that passes...time to grow up.
