A One Story Town Lyrics
I'm for standin' up, I'm for breakin' free
I don't want fate handed down to me
Yeah I'm for movin' on, try another town
Time ain't changin' nothin', take a look around
Oh, I'm lost in a one story town
Where everything's close to the ground
Yeah the same shit goes down
Nothing turns around
It's a one story town
She was only seventeen
But I held her to her word
Had to push her luck
Thought she couldn't burn
No it didn't hurt me
When she had to leave
She had a far away feeling
Wasn't part of me
Oh, I'm lost in a one story town
Where everything's close to the ground
Yeah the same shit goes down
Nothing turns around
It's a one story town
I don't want fate handed down to me
Yeah I'm for movin' on, try another town
Time ain't changin' nothin', take a look around
Where everything's close to the ground
Yeah the same shit goes down
Nothing turns around
It's a one story town
But I held her to her word
Had to push her luck
Thought she couldn't burn
When she had to leave
She had a far away feeling
Wasn't part of me
Where everything's close to the ground
Yeah the same shit goes down
Nothing turns around
It's a one story town

Wanting to move from a town he lives in. Sounds as if nothing ever improves there, nothing to look forward to.
People sometimes say that you can't run away from your problems. I disagree. Sometimes you are not in a place that feels right, and a change would do you some good. For me, it's what this song is about.
