There Goes The Neighborhood

Runaway, runaway
Don't look back
Memories of 17 in the culdesac
Thought it'd get better, but it never did
In a rush to grow up, you miss some things
Fall in love then fuck it up, it's the same routine
Thought it'd be easy, but it never is

Steppin' over cracks in the pavement
Tell me if I'm someone worth savin'
Or am I just another thing to forget?

There goes the neighborhood gone up in smoke
And we didn't know back then that the sidewalk ends
And life's just a bad joke
Young and misunderstood
You're not alone
Why did we run away from the good old days?
I'd go back if I could
Don't look now but there goes the neighborhood

Broken homes and promises, I'm breaking down
Never was quite the same since dad moved out
Nobody tells you how it'll really feel
Try anything to ease the pain of being young
Overwhelmed, misunderstood by everyone
Nobody tells you the things you need to hear

Steppin' over cracks in the pavement
Tell me if I'm someone worth savin'
Or am I just another thing to forget?

There goes the neighborhood gone up in smoke
And we didn't know back then that the sidewalk ends
And life's just a bad joke
Young and misunderstood
You're not alone
Why did we run away from the good old days?
I'd go back if I could
Don't look now but there goes the neighborhood

There goes
There goes the neighborhood
There goes
There goes the neighborhood
There goes
There goes the neighborhood

There goes the neighborhood gone up in smoke
And we didn't know back then that the sidewalk ends
And life's just a bad joke
Young and misunderstood
You're not alone
Why did we run away from the good old days?
I'd go back if I could
Don't look now but there goes the neighborhood
