Hometown Loneliness

I couldn't cry even if I wanted

I've got no tears

Left to mask the pain

And I've gone crazy if I'm being honest

I've lost my mind

It'll never be the same

How I miss my friends who've all

Moved away

Never thought I'd be the one

Who stayed

I know every street in this town

But I've never found the one

To get me out

So when I'm six feet underground

I just hope

I've made my people proud

Everyone here had dreams to leave

So don't blame me that I always believed

Then I guess life got in the way

Now I miss the dreams I had

When I was young

This hometown loneliness has shaped

Who I've become

I know every street in this town

But I've never found the one

To get me out

So when I'm six feet underground

I just hope (I hope)

I've made my people proud

There isn't a time in this place

When I don't wish

That I could've been someone

Who didn't spend all their years

Running around

In this small town

I know every street in this town

But I've never found the one

To get me out

So when I'm six feet underground

I just hope (I hope)

I've made my people proud

(I just wanna make my people proud)

I've driven down every road that I know (every road)

To find the one (to find the one)

That takes me home

So when my body is buried and gone (buried and gone)

I'll be back (I'll be back)

In a place

Where I belong
