anthemic rock, alternative rock, soaring guitars
Every word, written by AI.
Intro
Verse 1
You cannot carry all of it down the road
My mother said and pointed at the load
She stood out on the driveway in the cold
And let me go without a hand to hold
I put the car in gear to start the drive
The first time that I felt myself alive
Chorus
Was it a mistake to walk away?
I had no reason left to stay
How did I finally come to know?
I had to leave so I could grow
Verse 2
I took a drive back down the quiet street
Where all the older friends would always meet
The weeds are taking over every track
And none of it could ever pull me back
I hold no bitter anger in my mind
I made my peace with what I left behind
Chorus
Was it a mistake to walk away?
I had no reason left to stay
How did I finally come to know?
I had to leave so I could grow
Bridge
Nobody blamed me when I left the town
The quiet mills were slowly shutting down
I taped the cardboard boxes by the door
And swept the gray dust off the kitchen floor
Guitar Solo
Chorus
Was it a mistake to walk away?
I had no reason left to stay
How did I finally come to know?
I had to leave so I could grow
Outro
Did I just have to let it go?
Tonight I look ahead and know
