lyrics

I'm leaving town tomorrow getting out for good
sick of all the crying and dying neighbourhoods
enough of all the whining and tired of all the rain
now it's time to put up or shut up so I'm gonna take the plane

You and me we're alright I will never let you down
Let's run away together It's time to leave this hometown

Gonna buy me a one way ticket fly from this despair
Cos for years I have been drowning now I'm coming up for air

You and me we're alright I will never let you down
Let's run away together It's time to leave this hometown

If I go will you go ? I can't do this alone
I'm leaving here with you yeah, I can't do this alone
Can't stand it anymore
Can't stay here anymore
Can't live here anymore

Not going for the money or leaving here in shame
My empty soul is tired so tired Too tired to play this game

You and me we're alright I will never let you down
Let's run away together It's time to leave this hometown

I'm leaving town tomorrow getting out for good
