[Verse 1]
Living in this small town
Where everybody knows my name
Familiar faces all around
I put a smile on my face
But they don't see it
Can't see I wanna get away

[Verse 2]
I'm walking down the same road
As I did when I was three
Don't even wanna go home
I just wish that I could leave
And see the big world
And find who I'm supposed to be
But that was high school me
Now I'm a thousand miles away
From what used to be
The home I wanted to escape

[Chorus]
We always want what we don't have
So if I went back in time
I'd tell high school me
To enjoy the little life
[Bridge]
Times fliеs by as the cool kids cry
'Cause we always thought wе wanted more
Football games and the things we'd hate
Are now just memories we're searching for

[Outro]
I can feel it coming now
That feeling when I hit the ground
It's something that I felt before
Time just keeps on going by
Now it makes me wanna cry
'Cause I won't be there anymore
