Violent words they scar me for life
I was thirteen and ready to die
My life was hell, my parents couldn't tell
That I was aware of their lies
So I tried getting up and I fell so hard
And I lost everyone in sight
My home's divided, my anger ignited
I'm burning every bridge, I'm never coming back again
Hey! Hey!
Watch me as I walk away
Hey! Hey!
So tell me
Who am I now? So full of doubt
And falling faster than the speed of a lie
I'm on the edge of something new
Some things are better without you
Some things are better without you
Where I grew up all the people were sad
Cause the weather was cold and the music was bad
This little town of misery that I call home
Raised me in the worst ways I should've known
That there's nothing left here for me
Except to follow in the steps of someone I don't wanna be
So take this regret to your grave
Cause I was the best mistake you ever made
Hey! Hey!
Watch me as I walk away
Hey! Hey!
So tell me
Who am I now? So full of doubt
And falling faster than the speed of a lie
I'm on the edge of something new
Some things are better without you
Some things are better without you
Hey! Hey! (x2)
Watch me as I walk away (Watch me as I walk away)
One to many time I try but I have failed myself
My lies keep getting deeper
And I can't take this anymore
I can't come home (x3)
Well, I can't come home
I can't come home
I can't come home again.
