lyrics

Yeah, I’m still here and I still look about the same
But you disappeared though I sometimes say your name
I’m still dressed in black and my apartment’s just out back
No, no, no, it’s just me. There’s no brand new circle of friends.

I took the wrong way out of town
I took the wrong way out of town

At night it’s so still when I walk back to my place
And inside it’s so still and I can’t stand to see my face
In the mirror by the door, that you don’t walk through anymore
There’s a view from my bed of everything I’ll never have

I took the wrong way out of town
I took the wrong way out of town.

Time after time, with accurate precision
Given a set of options I will make the wrong decision
You used to point for me but now I’m scared to move
Because I always go the wrong way

This rug is worn out from all the people walking in and out
Of my life in this town, it was better when you were around
And someday you’ll come back and you’ll see that I haven’t changed
And you’ll feel like you’re home when you hear me say your name

I took the wrong way out of town
I took the wrong way out of town
I took the wrong way out of town
I took the wrong way out of town
