T-shirt

I am thankful for all my ghosts
Thank you for chasing me out of that familiar town
Out of all the things I knew
Making sure I wouldn't come back
Coming home and realizing I outgrew you
God damn if those weren't growing pains
I still feel them like a missing limb
But I can't come back now
Coming back don't feel like home
Coming back feels like I'm better off alone
With all your memories in my endless cities
Maybe I'll find a new one with your name on it
Maybe I've been there...done that...got the t-shirt
I'm not saying I found someone better
But I feel better
And I can't tell you how I know, but I know that it keeps getting...
You can blame my leaving if it makes you feel better
And I'll say I deserved you more
But it doesn't matter cuz you never really tried
You just talked a whole lot about it
And I chased my dreams
And I chased you while I was Roman like a candle
I'm not saying I don't sleep with your memory every once in a while
But that don't make it sane, I can see it now
