Please don't make me go
I only want you not to stop me
All I ask of you is to let me be free
Since I've been gone
I hoped to give you a song
That showed to you what I'd become
You took a piece of me
I took a piece of you
In all I'm sure I'm so much better than you
I always wanted to be something more than this
I dreamed someday I'd actually be someone
Instead of what you've made me to be
This town where I grew up isn't the place that I know now
And this place that I called home isn't even a house anymore
And though I've lost hope on you
I hope you don't give up on me
This is the price we pay for our endless holiday
Why am I running far from you?
Is this a game where you win and I lose?
What am I trying to prove?
Is it what you've always been telling me?
