I've been cheated, and I've been used
They said that I'm no good
Hearts stone cold, black and blue
Reminders of the shit they put me through
Lord, it's getting old
It's time to show myself the door
There's no pretending anymore
No, it's over
Where I'm going I don't know
Somewhere down this dusty road
North on 441
Pass the rolling cattle fields, the trailer parks, and rusted cotton mills
Lord get me out of here
I've made up my mind
Not giving in this time
No it's over
Heart break runaway
I'm on a fast track toward the interstate
I'm leaving this place without a minute to waste
No looking over my shoulder
It's over
Been in prison locked and chained
Bible beat into my brain
Said you gotta trust and obey
But I'm busted loose I'm on the run
And I'm screamin at the top of my lungs
Thank God I'm free at last
Feel like I've been reborn
There's no pretending anymore
No
Daddy's been drinking beer
Every night for 20 years
And mama just sits there on the couch
Poppin' pills to drown her tears
And they keep doggin me,
You're not worth a damn and you're just gonna be another failure
And a jailbird like everyone in the family
So I hang out in the parking lot; I get stoned with my 2 friends
Cause they're the ones who understand the situation that I'm in
They feel my pain and man I'm gonna miss em when I'm gone
But I'm moving on, If I don't I'll be dead by 21
I'll shoot myself in the head before I wind up like my dad
Working a job I hate and taking out my anger on a kid
I can hear my mama crying as I cross that county line
Cause she knows I'm not comin back I'm leaving all this shit behind
I told her I'm a soldier I'm wiser, and I'm older
I got my education now I'm out of here it's over
And I'm Heart break runaway
I'm on the fast track toward the interstate
I'm leaving this place without a minute to waste
No looking over my shoulder
It's over
No goodbye, now I'm gone
It's all over
It's over
No goodbye, now I'm gone
It's all over
It's over
No goodbye, now I'm gone
It's all over
It's over
