V1:
It's been a few months since we went our ways
So I should be closer to fine by now
But it feels like you're still around
Cuz this town keeps talking
Looking at me then turning to whispers
And some of my long time places
Don't feel like they used to
Tainted by the time they knew you
Pre-Chorus:
I keep doing my best
To forget about that mess
Make new memories
Meet new faces
But everywhere I go
Chorus:
You do too
Like the shadow at my heels
From my seat at O'Neil's
To the way out dirt road
No matter what I do
No matter how far I run
I never escape you
V2:
I'm out here dodging the bones
Of the skeleton in my closet
Every spot in this town feels haunted
By the ghosts of our past
Is it too much to ask
To get these places back
Free them from this rerun
Of memories i want no more
Pre-Chorus:
I keep doing my best
To forget about that mess
Make new memories
Meet new faces
But everywhere I go
Chorus:
You do too
Like the shadow at my heels
From my seat at O'Neil's
To the way out dirt road
No matter what I do
No matter how far I run
I never escape you
Bridge:
I'd rather not move along
From this place I belong
Can't erase the places we went
Or what they all meant
So I may not have a say
Pre-Chorus:
I keep doing my best
To forget about that mess
Make new memories
Meet new faces
But everywhere I go
Chorus:
You do too
Like the shadow at my heels
From my seat at O'Neil's
To the way out dirt road
No matter what I do
No matter how far I run
I never escape you
