From the narrow streets Of this narrow town Where lives compete Most let down I'll be a fading ghost A distant memory Like things you fear the most Don't ever speak of me I'm gonna change my name I'm gonna be a star I'm gonna ditch the shame Of who my parents are And if ever if ever if ever If ever someone asks where I've been They'll say we never, we never, we never We never saw the bastard again No we never saw the bastard again I am leaving here as fast as I can I've seen the empty space Behind my neighbors eyes If you don't leave this place Something inside you dies I'm done eating dinner in the drive through parking lot Listing all the things I've been called that I swear I'm not That I swear I'm not I swear if ever, if ever if ever If ever someone asks where I've been They'll say we never, we never, we never We never saw the bastard again Yeah if ever, if ever, if ever If ever someone asks where I've been They'll say we never, we never, we never We never saw the bastard again I am leaving here as fast as I can Fuck this town and all the things I have been I am leaving here as fast as I can
