lyrics

Some things are best left unread or, better yet, never sent
I can't give you credit and I'm tired of betting against me
You find with ease the means to insist that you'd be doing much better without this
Some things are best left unsaid or, second best, never meant

You said you were 'just another initial in your string of women'
I said 'I should be so lucky'

It's like a curse took this town and we won't get it back
You said that you 'felt like the walls were coming down'
I said 'It isn't that bad...'
Love feels like a lifetime ago
-Kid, you can leave it
-It's not going anywhere
It's like a curse took this town and we won't get it back
-Kid, you can leave it
-Don't make me tell you again

I don't feel comfortable in the skin I'm living in
I get the impression you're fine but you don't say much of anything
We go quiet
You ask me what I'm thinking
I try to condense 5 years down to a single sentence

But some things are best left unsaid and I don't need the regrets
We double back on years spent and the time shared with the friends left

It's like a curse took this town and we won't get it back
You said that you 'felt like the walls were coming down'
I said 'It isn't that bad...'
Love feels like a lifetime ago
-Kid, you can leave it
-It's not going anywhere
It's like a curse took this town and we won't get it back
-Kid, you can leave it
-I can't tell you this again

Those 10 years of shared lives
They all still cross my mind
I think I'm settling
On leaving it all behind
