So long I have searched To find a way out. To see a new face, To drive a new route. Far too familiar With this town that I know. I craved air to breathe, And so I must go. Now It's fading away In a cloud of exhaust, But instead of relief, I only feel lost. Goodbye to the memories And all I have learned. This is not what I thought. The tables have turned. I'll steal a glance back And wave one last time. It ended so quickly; No reason, no rhyme. I thought what I wanted Was more room to grow, But the question will haunt me: Is it time to let go?

About That Time
So long I have searched To find a way out. To see a new face, To drive a new route. Far too familiar With this town that I know. I craved air to breathe, And so I must go. Now It's fading away In a cloud of exhaust, But instead of relief, I only feel lost. Goodbye to the memories And all I have learned. This is not what I thought. The tables have turned. I'll steal a glance back And wave one last time. It ended so quickly; No reason, no rhyme. I thought what I wanted Was more room to grow, But the question will haunt me: Is it time to let go?
