The rearview mirror shows the town I am leaving behind
Smoke fills the car, fills my mind
Drifting into my veins, pumping through my blood
Memories are better not remembered
People are better forgotten
Lack of sleep shows from my bloodshot eyes
There's no medicine out there to cure heartbreak
My hands shake as my grip on the wheel tightens
My hearing's shot, my fingers raw.
Broken promises are all that ring through this girl's heart
To accompany the tar that's built up
Sleep is a rare pleasure
Let alone dreams
But all the past means nothing, nothing at all
I can no longer breathe
As I leave this small town behind
And all the people that forgot me
