[Verse 1]
I told myself that I won't end up down in the ditches
See, I lit the match and watch the fire burn
Through the town we grew up in
Oh suburbia, you left us peering out over fences
Off a diving board, jackknife into the deep end
From empty lots filled with parking spots
We were bored
And the memories not yet forgotten [?]
They don't wash away
No, they don't flicker out
They're lurking in the dark at the end of the day
[Chorus]
Oh Oh No
No I don't wanna end up like this
Down in the sewers
The [?] is [your not used to/you got used to]
The dawn explodes
All bombs up in the air
The silhouette through her bedroom window is gone
It's no longer there
But you were never lost
Oh whoa (x8)
[Bridge]
No second thoughts, no hesitation
The months, the years, of isolation
Get your photo finished with the [old/all] time hack
The memory filled pa**erby
This town is quiet, it looks like a background
The trophies on the shelf are no longer around
Taste the cigarette, it's at the edge of your mouth
The flame still burns and it won't go out
[Chorus]
