about

A Carpe Diem exclusive track.

lyrics

GOTTA LEAVE SOMETIME
There's an ashtray on the ottoman
An empty bottle on the stairs
And a suitcase in the doorway
Makes you think she's going somewhere
Buddy, I do feel for ya
But that's just how it's gotta be
Don't wake up and freak out
Just roll up and head out
There's only one way to take the lead
Cause you gotta leave sometime
You gotta skip town, no you can't stick around
You gotta leave sometime
Doesn't matter where you stay
As long as it's away from here
There's a hotel in a mile
But there's another down the road
Don't you know this could take a while
This could make you feel so old
Man, it's the meanest thing you'll ever face
Watching all you worked for and mile markers fade
Don't wake up and freak out, just roll up and head out
It would have killed you, had you stayed.
