[00:13.46]Well I left the town of sinners, redneck priests and meth lab stalls
[00:18.04]To find myself a few more just like me
[00:22.28]The options pretty skinny and the order’s pretty tall
[00:26.46]To swim the hippest waters in the sea
[00:30.68]Somewhere in the sticky city driving back and forth
[00:35.05]I found myself a squat in Williamsburg
[00:39.27]Nobody seemed the same sincerely this could be a curse
[00:43.71]But everyone’s the same with different shirts
[00:47.42]
[00:47.64]I’m not sure what part about me they can’t understand
[00:52.27]No one’s really from here,
[00:54.34]they just all pretend that’s what they’ve been about
[00:58.60]Those three kids left in Brooklyn sure know how to spin me out
[01:09.01]
[01:11.46]I see a guy named Ian every morning at the store
[01:15.78]Always dissing something with his eyes
[01:20.14]He always wears a sweater even in the warmest weather
[01:24.48]He’s not afraid to say what he despised
[01:28.36]But I did a little searching you know, and much to my surprise
[01:32.94]A few years back a metal cover band
[01:37.30]He yelled at me and said the Internet is full of lies
[01:41.59]And then I never saw Ian again
[01:45.24]
[01:45.51]I’m not sure what part about him they can’t understand
[01:50.15]No one’s really from here,
[01:51.92]they just all pretend that’s what they’ve been about
[01:56.40]Those two kids left in Brooklyn sure know how to spin me out
[02:36.68]
[02:38.45]I grabbed shots in Decatur with a girl who’s on my block
[02:43.63]She’s the best drummer that I know
[02:47.80]Her band’s always struggling and they always say they’re juggling
[02:52.28]All their schedules just to play a show
[02:56.00]Working at American Apparel selling women’s clothes to guys
[03:00.81]She got a call to play in someone’s band I don’t know well
[03:05.18]She don’t wan’t to do it, she’s so broke that she said screw it
[03:09.41]Then I never spoke to her again
[03:12.93]
[03:13.30]I’m not sure what part about her she didn’t understand
[03:17.97]Nobody’s really from here,
[03:19.85]they just all pretend that’s what they’ve been about
[03:24.30]That one kid left in Atlanta…**** this place, I’m getting out
