The grey skies
Of a city not my own
But where I feel at home
Reminding me of you

I breathe in
And let the smoke burn in my lungs
Reminding me that I need to give it up :
This bad habit - these bad habits

Somebody once said
"you really ****** me up -
this time for good -
even though you didn't mean to"
And I feel like that's what happened to us
Because I don't think I'll ever
Love anyone again
At least not like I used to -
not like I loved you

I go out
And I'm alone, but in a crowd
Surrounded by the sounds
Of the city I call home
The neon
and nightlife in this place -
Raleigh's warm embrace -
is helping me move on

But there's a reason somebody once said
"you really ****** me up -
this time for good -
even though you didn't mean to"
And I feel like that's what happened to us
Because I don't think I'll ever
Love anyone again
At least not like I used to.


Not like I loved you.
