Wrote you a letter
But I never mailed it
I thought that I could
Read the words
Then I rehearse them
Like a script from Hollywood
Apologise for something
Act like I forgot
Just how much it hurts you
I do that a lot
I can't seem to face you
So I'll run away
From the shame of looking back
At the mess I made
Rearview, in the mirror
I can see the signs
Pushing me out further
Under streetlights
There's no easy way to say it
This town was never mine
And you're crying on the corner
But I put my foot down and drive
I'll pour the feelings
Down every drain
Watch them wash away
I'll play the victim
Scared of commitment
Did I want that anyway?
Screw it up and leave you
Act like I don't care
Just how much it scares me
To see you standing there
No, I can't seem to face you
So I'll run away
From the shame of looking back
At the mess I made
Rearview, in the mirror
I can see the signs
Pushing me out further
Under streetlights
'Cause there's no easy way to say it
This town was never mine
I see you on every corner
I can't feel enough to cry
'Cause there's no easy way to say it
So I'll put my foot down and drive
I'll put my foot down and drive
I'll put my foot down and drive
I'll put my foot down and drive
