I got this close to packing up my bags and leaving A year ago, around this time But, right at the door, I turned around, I couldn't trust the feeling Does leaving home ever feel right? But I'm never gonna like myself If I'm standing where the curtain fell 'Cause it can't get any worse And I can't get any worse So, I'll change my life, or I'll lose my mind Whatever happens first I guess I hate to leave the memories But I'm sick of the reminders 'Cause I've grieved enough in growing up No need to fuel the fire (Oh-ooh-ooh) I left for a week A giant city really made me notice (ooh-ooh) How free I felt in a new place (Oh-ooh-ooh) and, when I got home, I lost the person Who had made sticking around feel worth it (ooh-ooh) So, now I think it's time to go 'Cause it can't get any worse And I can't get any worse So, I'll change my life, or I'll lose my mind Whatever happens first I guess I hate to leave the memories But I'm sick of the reminders 'Cause I've grieved enough in growing up No need to fuel the fire This room has watched me fall apart so bad I couldn't walk And this house has seen me cry so hard, if these four walls could talk 'Cause I've said: Goodbye forever, to some people that I loved I guess I needed all those things to feel I'm growing up 'Cause it can't get any worse And I can't get any worse
