Neighborhood Songtext
von American Authors feat. Bear Rinehart of NEEDTOBREATHE

Left my mother feelin′ sick in her bedroom
My dad, he told me, "Son, you best grow up"
I told my friends they can find me on the internet
'Cause somehow, this place just ain′t enough
Collect call from a brother in the lockup
He said he paid his dues, but could I pay 'em too?
My best friend's stealing money from my pocket
I guess it′s time to go when they said

"Who, who are you?
Who are you really anymore?"
I said, "Who, who am I?
I don′t know what I'm headed for"

I said, "Oh no, oh no, I′m leavin' again"
I said, "Goodbye, so long" to my, my neighborhood
And I know, I know I′ll see you again
'Cause I′ll always, always come back to my neighborhood

To my neighborhood


I threw my troubles and my bags in the backseat
Pulled up the drive for one last look
She was standin' in the doorway, lonely
Had to lean in close when she said

"Who, who are you?
Who are you really anymore?"
I said, "Who? (I said, "Who?") Who am I? (Who am I?)
I don't know what I′m fighting for"

Oh no, oh no, I′m leavin' again
I said, "Goodbye, so long" to my, my neighborhood
And I know, I know I′ll see you again (I'll see you again)
′Cause I'll always, always come back (to my) to my neighborhood

To my neighborhood
To my neighborhood

Came back last night just to see you
It′s been too long, but nothing's changed
I'm tryin′ to be the one that you can′t be
Maybe these dreams, they are to blame
I can hear it in your voice that you do know
It's not a choice for me to stay
So, so long, goodbye to the neighborhood
To my neighborhood


Oh no, oh no, I′m leavin' again (I′m leavin' again)
I said, "Goodbye, so long" to my (to my), my neighborhood
And I know, I know I′ll see you again (I'll see you again)
'Cause I′ll always, always come back to my (come back), to my neighborhood

To my neighborhood (my neighborhood)
My neighborhood (my neighborhood)
My neighborhood
