From What I Remember

from Bleed by Chris Stowe

lyrics

i remember when you packed your bags
i remember you were hiding your face that day
i remember you leavin
i got the letter that you left for me
it said that you had tried your best and someday
you'd hope that i'd understand

cause boy as soon as i settle down i feel like running
as soon as i skip town i start missin home
i pray that i'll be back around
but chances are i won't
just don't let the good feeling die and don't give up hope

i grew up hard but i turned out fine
just finding reasons i should stay alive
and i started writing them down
boys on the corner taught me how to fight
girls at the bar taught me how to treat them right
but that was never enough

cause boy as soon as i settle down i feel like running
as soon as i skip town i start missin home
i pray that i'll be back around
but chances are i won't
just don't let the good feeling die and don't give up hope

hiding from life only gets you so far
and picking up the pieces is getting old
just keeping my eyes closed is harder than it looks
but it's better than waiting by the phone

i learned to spend when money's gettin tight
i learned to burn things down i learned to drink all night
stayin alone won't get you through the nights
fallin in love is just killing time but it's better
than waitin around to die

cause boy as soon as i settle down i feel like running
as soon as i skip town i start missin home
i pray that i'll be back around
but chances are i won't
just don't let the good feeling die and don't give up hope
