I've tried so many times to leave this place

This town, my life

These streets are a map of my past, tomorrow

They'll tell me about last night

There's no good news if there's any news at all

This place is boring

This place sucks

This place is home


[Chorus 1]

I've walked these streets 18 years

My whole life, I know their names like mine

And I hate tonight

Where should we go from here?

Where will we be next year?

This city is changing, but it's all the same

We've been there, done that

Seen this and trashed that

I can't take another day


[Chorus 2]

I've walked these streets 18 years

My whole life, I know their names like mine

And I hate tonight

I hate tonight

I say this 7 nights a week

I hate tonight

I hate this fucking town

Everywhere I go and everything I see

I try to shrug it away

I try to sleep it away

I try to drink it away

I want to keep it away

There's nothing left to see

It's a part of me

No, it's not a part of me

And I've tried so many times to leave this place

This town my life


[Chorus 3]

I've walked these streets 18 years

My whole life, I know their names like mine

And I hate tonight

I hate tonight

I say this 7 nights a week

I hate tonight

I hate this whole damn town

Everywhere I go and everything I see

The same problems always come my way

It's getting harder to see

Guess I'll find my way home

I close my mind

The problem's solved

If tomorrow comes, I'll push on through
