Barona Heights 4Ever

[Verse 1]
I'm quitting my job and I'm leaving the city with a heavy heart
I'm packing my car and I'm driving somewhere pretty
I think I need a new start
And I didn't think I'd miss you but now that's the hardest part

The streets are all a mess and the doors are boarded up
To our favorite bar
The sky is filled with smoke and everything is closed
The city's losing its charm
While I'm sitting all alone and I'm wondering where you all are

[Chorus]
But I know I didn't help and I know I didn't hurt you
I know that you won't care and I know I don't deserve you
The minute it gets hard is the minute I desert you
But I'm on my way to find another place

[Verse 2]
I'm tearing down the pictures and tossing all the plants
I'm selling all I've got
The mattress on the floor and the splinters in my hands
I think I'll go for a walk
And wherever I end up, well that will be the perfect spot

Like back when we were living closer to the ocean out in the avenues
Corner store and deli or hill over the city, it was all brand new
Don't believe the lies I know that none of them are true

[Chorus]
And I know I didn't help but I know I didn't hurt you
I know that you won't care and I know I don't deserve you
The minute it gets hard is the minute I desert you
But I'm on my way to find another place

[Bridge]
When I get older you'll get older too
One day I know that someday I'll go and I won't recognize you
So small they didn't treat you right, they walked all over you
Just know I loved you, yeah I loved you
