Leaving Minnesota Lyrics

I wanted to try so hard
But she had no interest
In seeing me or my face again
Feels like a bullet in my chest

Now I’m leaving Minnesota
Would’ve been nice to have seen ya
In the middle of self-realization
You’ve lost me along the way

And now I’m leaving Minnesota
But I’ve got nowhere to go, yeah
In the middle of self-realization
You’ve lost me along the way
Me along the way

I heard you cried when you spoke of me
I can’t help but think it’s all a lie
Like they say if you love something
Let it free and let it fly

Now I’m leaving Minnesota
Would’ve been nice to have seen ya
In the middle of self-realization
You’ve lost me along the way

And now I’m leaving Minnesota
But I’ve got nowhere to go, yeah
In the middle of self-realization
You’ve lost me along the way

Lost me along the way
Lost me along the way

Now I’m leaving Minnesota
Would’ve been nice to have seen ya
In the middle of self-realization
You’ve lost me along the way

And now I’m leaving Minnesota
But I’ve got nowhere to go, yeah
In the middle of self-realization
You’ve lost me along the way

You’ve lost me along the way

Better Late Than Ever

Let Me Live My Life

Better Place

Waste My Time

I wanted to try so hard
But she had no interest
In seeing me or my face again
Feels like a bullet in my chest

Now I’m leaving Minnesota
Would’ve been nice to have seen ya
In the middle of self-realization
You’ve lost me along the way

And now I’m leaving Minnesota
But I’ve got nowhere to go, yeah
In the middle of self-realization
You’ve lost me along the way
Me along the way

I heard you cried when you spoke of me
I can’t help but think it’s all a lie
Like they say if you love something
Let it free and let it fly

Now I’m leaving Minnesota
Would’ve been nice to have seen ya
In the middle of self-realization
You’ve lost me along the way

And now I’m leaving Minnesota
But I’ve got nowhere to go, yeah
In the middle of self-realization
You’ve lost me along the way

Lost me along the way
Lost me along the way

Now I’m leaving Minnesota
Would’ve been nice to have seen ya
In the middle of self-realization
You’ve lost me along the way

And now I’m leaving Minnesota
But I’ve got nowhere to go, yeah
In the middle of self-realization
You’ve lost me along the way

You’ve lost me along the way

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

since nobody wants to weigh in, Adam himself said he wrote this song in the tour bus, while literally "Leaving Minnesota" where he wanted to see somebody he was romantically interested in one can only assume. probably somebody who was a burden to him, or he didn't trust, considering "I heard you cried when you spoke of me, I can't help but this its all a lie." maybe Adam "Leaving Minnesota" was him leaving the memory of a bad relationship he had there. all I know is he is indeed, or at least he was, leaving Minnesota.
