  • I hate this town, it's so washed up
    And all my friends don't give a fuck
    Don't tell me that it's just bad luck
    When will I find where I fit in?
    (Two, three, four)

    Remember when I tried
    I never strayed too far from you
    Forever by your side
    No matter what I was going through

    But now I never know the things to say to you
    That help me prove that I'm still on your side
    I never show just what you do to me
    Guess I was always wrong

    I hate this town, it's so washed up
    And all my friends don't give a fuck
    Don't tell me that it's just bad luck
    When will I find where I fit in?

    I hate this town
    'Cause no one can understand
    I just can't be tied down
    Nothing comes between me and my plans

    So now I never know the things to say to you
    That help me prove that I'm still on your side
    I never show just what you do to me
    Guess I was always wrong

    I hate this town, it's so washed up
    And all my friends don't give a fuck
    Don't tell me that it's just bad luck
    When will I find where I fit in?

    And don't believe a word they're telling to you
    Don't believe a word they're telling to you
    They let me down
    When will I find where I fit in?
    I hate this town

    Won't let a world gone mad ever bring me down
    Gave everything I had to turn it back around
    'Cause our time's worth somethin'
    Bigger than both you and me
    I can't live my life always backin' down
    I gotta do this right then they can't make a sound
    'Cause I'm not here for nothin'
    Least I can say I stand for somethin'
    You and me, we stand for somethin'

    I hate this town, it's so washed up
    And all my friends don't give a fuck
    Don't tell me that it's just bad luck
    When will I find where I fit in?

    And don't believe a word they're telling to you
    Don't believe a word they're telling to you
    They let me down
    When will I find where I fit in?
