I know we're in September 
And this is my house 
And this is my town 
But my clothes are in the case 
And I am leaving 
Don't tell me what you spent it on 
You always lie 
You always lie 
And it's a decision 
I am leaving 

We used to say for fun 
Lets say you lived 
And then you did 
You were the leader of us all 
The perfect fall 

You speak to the weak and old picture of me 
Everybody says they wanna be free 
And it's a decision 
So I am leaving 

The powder's in the kitchen 
The spoon is on the floor 
Your sister says it's different now 
I don't believe her anymore 

[Chorus]
And I don't want your hand me downs 
They're old 
They're all worn out 
I don't wanna hang around 
I don't want your hand me downs 

So now I'm in this hotel room 
I'm free and droning on 
But the musics way too loud 
I wanna skip to the next song 

The glass is on the counter 
The sheets are on the floor 
Your sister says it's not the same 
I don't believe her anymore 
[Chorus]

So you lie yourself to sleep tonight 
But you won't think of me 
'cause your world revolves around you 
Or so it seems 
Or so it seems 
And you can't get off 
And I can't get on 
Yourself is all you see 
And I don't wanna hang around 
I don't want your hand me downs anymore 

You speak to the weak and old picture of me 
Everybody says they wanna be free 
And it's a decision 
So I am leaving
