Lyrics

(Verse 1)
You spent the last three hours cataloging my flaws
While I was busy cleaning up the wreck that you caused
You're breathless from the shouting, you're red in the face
Packing up your ego and your hollow embrace
You're looking for a reaction, a tear or a plea
But man, you're barking up a long-dead tree.


(Pre-Chorus)
Don't look for the sympathy you threw in the trash
Don't ask for a favor, don't ask for the cash
The air is changing, can you feel the shift?
I'm finally cutting the anchor adrift.


(Chorus)
So pack your bags, take your ghost, take your pride
Take the secrets and the lies that you keep deep inside
I've got the porch light off and the deadbolt set
You're the best mistake I'll ever forget
Go on, keep walking, don't you dare turn around
The street's even better when you're leaving town
Yeah, the exit sign is glowing, and I'm making a pass--
Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.


(Verse 2)
You're hovering on the threshold, waiting for a sign
Like I'm gonna beg you to step back across the line
But the space you're leaving is a beautiful view
I'm breathing in oxygen instead of breathing in you
No drama, no encore, no "let's talk it through"
I've got better things to do than to suffer with you.


(Pre-Chorus)
Don't fish for a goodbye, don't fish for a spark
I'm closing the shutters, I'm killing the dark
The rhythm is steady, the house is at peace
I'm signing the papers for my own release.


(Chorus)
So pack your bags, take your ghost, take your pride
Take the secrets and the lies that you keep deep inside
I've got the porch light off and the deadbolt set
You're the best mistake I'll ever forget
Go on, keep walking, don't you dare turn around
The street's even better when you're leaving town
Yeah, the exit sign is glowing, and I'm making a pass--
Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.


(Bridge)
One foot in front of the other, keep it moving, keep it fast
You're a blurry old memory that wasn't built to last
Don't trip on your way, don't stumble on the frame
I've already forgotten how to spell your name.


(Guitar Solo - High energy, sharp and punchy)


(Chorus)
So pack your bags, take your ghost, take your pride
Take the secrets and the lies that you keep deep inside
I've got the porch light off and the deadbolt set
You're the best mistake I'll ever forget
Go on, keep walking, don't you dare turn around
The street's even better when you're leaving town
Yeah, the exit sign is glowing, and I'm making a pass--
Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.


(Outro)
Yeah, on the way out.
Don't look back.
Whatever you do, just don't look back.
Watch your step.
