Outside the sun come beating down

we're going back to the town

in letters and memories

and then a pleasant town



The pain when you still lived there

and I couldn't wait

for you to get away

my heart's being pulled around

in a backward town so far away



My old school is getting drunk on the town

don't think they'll ever get out

go home just to realize

why I had to get out



The pain when you still lived there

and I couldn't wait

for you to get away

my heart's being pulled around

in a backward town so far away

so far away



Up, down in the backward town

up, down in the backward town

up, down in the backward town

up, down in the backward town



The pain when you still lived there

and I couldn't wait

for you to get away

my heart's being pulled around

in a backward town so far away



The pain when you still live there

and I couldn't wait

for you to get away

my heart's being pulled around

in a backward town so far away



so far away

so far away



Up, down in the backward town

so far away

up, down in the backward town

so far away
