One by one, I’ll cut off all my ties to this goddamn town I’m sick of chasing atrophied feeling This sweeping city’s haunted for me, ghosts in corners whispering Of days that I long to forget, but for now the white noise will lend its company
I’m sorry for defiling every memory that you had of me It was never my intention to develop such a mockery I promise this will be resolved once I’m not around Expend energy rebuilding a bridge that I’d burnt to the ground
And pray to some kind of god that these loose teeth won’t defy And succumb to the night When we indulge our truths and encourage each other’s vices My head won’t stop swimming, room would stop spinning Get me out of this fluorescent light And drag my sorry bones home With any luck I’ll wind up somewhere far away from here
One by one, I’ve cut off all my ties to this goddamn town
