Im Leaving by The Brothers Gillespie Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I stormed out about 6 a.m
Hit the road like a gust of wind
And rode the snake all the way out of town
With the mist and the fog on my windshield
A sober man would probably yield
But that's not me and I'm not slowing down
She hasn't called my phone
When I threw hers, maybe it broke
Or maybe she's busy cleaning up the mess
Maybe the neighbors came to check
Or maybe she's called a friend
But more than likely, she just went back to bed
[Chorus]
This goddamn town has pushed me to the edge
Ain't enough room for me and all my demons
This fight doesn't seem to have a cause
You can do what you want, I'm leaving
[Verse 2]
Chalk it up to being young
When the honeymoon sees the sun
It never seems to go out peacefully
Put down your guns in good faith
But the opposite of love's not hate
The opposite of love is apathy
The fire burns away the veil
And a ugly animal's revealed
That's all we are, is that and hedonists
Now the voice that's saying "turn around"
Ain't coming through quite as loud
As the last few times I drove away like this
[Chorus]
This goddamn town has pushed me to the edge
Ain't enough room for me and all my demons
This fight doesn't seem to have a cause
You can do what you want, I'm leaving
[Verse 3]
You look so ugly in your throne
And I'm getting out of Babylon
Well before the brimstone and the fire
'Cause if I tucked my tail in shame
And crawled back in bed and stayed
I'd regret it for the rest of my young life
[Chorus]
This goddamn town has pushed me to the edge
There ain't enough room here for me and all my demons
This fight has seemed to have lost it's cause
You can do whatever you want, I'm leaving
This goddamn town has pushed me to the edge
Ain't enough room for me and all my demons
This fight doesn't seem to have a cause
You can do what you want, I'm leaving
You can do whatever you want, I'm leaving
I stormed out about 6 a.m
Hit the road like a gust of wind
And rode the snake all the way out of town
With the mist and the fog on my windshield
A sober man would probably yield
But that's not me and I'm not slowing down
She hasn't called my phone
When I threw hers, maybe it broke
Or maybe she's busy cleaning up the mess
Maybe the neighbors came to check
Or maybe she's called a friend
But more than likely, she just went back to bed
[Chorus]
This goddamn town has pushed me to the edge
Ain't enough room for me and all my demons
This fight doesn't seem to have a cause
You can do what you want, I'm leaving
[Verse 2]
Chalk it up to being young
When the honeymoon sees the sun
It never seems to go out peacefully
Put down your guns in good faith
But the opposite of love's not hate
The opposite of love is apathy
The fire burns away the veil
And a ugly animal's revealed
That's all we are, is that and hedonists
Now the voice that's saying "turn around"
Ain't coming through quite as loud

This goddamn town has pushed me to the edge
Ain't enough room for me and all my demons

'Cause if I tucked my tail in shame

[Chorus]
This goddamn town has pushed me to the edge
There ain't enough room here for me and all my demons
This fight has seemed to have lost it's cause
You can do whatever you want, I'm leaving
This goddamn town has pushed me to the edge
Ain't enough room for me and all my demons
This fight doesn't seem to have a cause
You can do what you want, I'm leaving
You can do whatever you want, I'm leaving
