Tristan Metherell - Old Town Lyrics

I've always been a stubborn mind
Its been a couple months since I said yes
Always been a little quiet
Never spoke my mind when I get mad
I've never been a good liar
Made up my mind about what's bad
Stick to the rules, don't fight it
Now I see whats good with a little fire
A little fire

Lately its been getting harder
To just sit by and watch things burn down
If can find a way to stop it
Can I find a way to save this old town?

And I know im just one piece
Of something that's far bigger
But I hope I can change this for the better

Cuz I'm not who I was
But I'm not going back on this
You can erase me
Tell them you're changing everything
But I won't no I won't
Turn my back on them
Oh I won't no I won't
Oh I won't turn my back on them

I've seen family getting angry
At my stories on the news
Have to see them at Thanksgiving
Have to see them all at Christmas too
How can I pretend to want this?
They think they can love with hateful words
How can I pretend to love them?
How can they pretend to love me too? Love me too

When I'm not who I was
I'm not going back on this
You can erase me
Tell them you're changing everything
But I won't no I won't
Turn my back on them
Oh I won't no I won't
Oh I won't turn my back on them

But even then is it really fine?
Even then am I really gold?
Will I make it out of this alive?
How do I know when it's time to go?

Oh I'm not who I was
But I'm not going back on this
You can erase me
Tell them you're changing everything
But I won't no I won't
Turn my back on them
Oh I won't no I won't
Oh I won't turn my back on them
