After All These Years�Like a Lightbulb Going Off In My Head

I hate this town, I�ve always hated it
Just too many things I�ve been meaning to say
And not enough reasons for me to stay

And how can we just carry on?
�Cause when you wake up, I�ll be gone

Building up your coffin
Burying your dreams
Making up excuses
To leave it all behind
It�s killing me
Your family and friends will always wonder why

You hate this town, you�ve always hated it
Still too many things you�ve been meaning to say
And not enough reasons for me to stay

And how can we just carry on?
�Cause when I wake up, you�ll be gone

Baggage goes around the belt
These lies are killing my esteem
How much I want to laugh at the ones who carry on
Language barriers are keeping me awake
How do we translate the things that make us who we are
When it�s the same things that are keeping us apart?
