That Was a Choice!

I will never be better than the grass beneath my feet
You'll forget my hometown because it's boring me

I can't take another year
And I won't let you make me think I have to stay here

Tell me you're happy
I'll say, "You must be lying"
Waiting for something
It feels like we're just dying
I left him stuck inside that house
When all he wants is to leave this town

Exit eight will look better when I finally say my peace
New job, a new city will finally a set me free

I won't take another year
And I won't let you make me think I have to stay here

Tell me you're happy
I'll say, "You must be lying"
I'm waiting for something
It feels like we're just dying
I left him stuck inside that house
And I can't let him move out

So will it be another 20 years?
Will you raise your family here?
So will it be another 20 years?
Will you raise your family here?
'Cause I think that they deserve better
And I know that you deserve better

Tell me you're happy
I'll say, "You must be lying"
I'm waiting on something
It feels like we're just dying
I want him stuck inside that house
He doesn't know that we're all out
