about

"I mean, it’s in the title, but this tune is about reclaiming what was yours before that job, the world or that person crushed your spirit and kept you thinking you were only good enough to be stuck right where you were. It’s also a reclamation of independence and space among the world after a shit breakup."

lyrics

I have never spoken to anyone
The way that you speak to me
Don’t it make you so sad
The kind of thing you’d see on somebody’s TV

It’s all misery and motels for days
I kept thinking I’ll be on my way
I’m out here chasing tides, losing money and pride
What the hell am I doing anyway

Goodbye, sweet release
When you see tail lights leave the driveway
Honey, please don’t make a scene
I’m going everywhere, baby
Everywhere I used to be

Like the dead eyes of the waitress at the diner
I’ve been checked out now for awhile
Call me with a quarter, while I wait for my order
Better than fighting with you all over town

I have never held anyone up so high
Never thought you’d let me down
At least I’ve got my peace, I’m my own worst enemy
Never felt so alone as I do now

Goodbye, sweet release
When you see tail lights leave the driveway
Honey, please don’t make a scene
I’m going everywhere, baby
Everywhere I used to be

Darkness at the edge of the barstool
I keep looking up and thinking you’ll be there
Ah but tonight ain’t my night,
There’s no salvation in sight down here

Goodbye, sweet relief
When you see tail lights leave the driveway
Honey, please don’t make a scene
I’m going everywhere, baby
Everywhere I used to be

I’m going everywhere, baby
Everywhere I used to be
