Remember time, back when we used to try to get our asses out?
Everything was simple then, now I don’t know a single friend.
I know, I know, I know – I know it’s not your fault,
I know, I know, I know – revenge is getting cold,
Al that was good is now – taking its toll.
Won’t you take me right back to my home,
Back where I’m coming from,
Won’t you take me right back to my hell,
To help me understand why we’re holding on.
You can take the boy out of a valley but never the valley out of a boy,
Takes you back into your life it took you a lifetime to destroy,
Now I’m standing by your side or I’m crying on your grave,
But moving on.
Before you go let me have just one more touch, let me have just one more,
Look into those burning eyes, these streets of fucked up paradise,
Get out, get out, get out – don’t wanna see your face,
Shut up, shut up, shut up – don’t wanna hear your voice,
Fuck it, fuck it, fuck it – let’s bring it on.
Won’t you take me right back to my home,
Back where I’m coming from,
Won’t you take me right back to my hell,
To help me understand why we’re holding on.
You can take the boy out of a valley but never the valley out of a boy,
Takes you back into your life it took you a lifetime to destroy,
Now I’m standing by your side or I’m crying on your grave,
But moving on.
You can take me out of my town but you can’t take my hometown out of me,
Its voices ringing in my head promising to never let me be,
You can take me out of my town but you can’t take my hometown out of me.
You can take the boy out of a valley but never the valley out of a boy,
Takes you back into your life it took you a lifetime to destroy,
No we’re standing by your side or we‘re spitting on your grave,
And we’re moving on.
