Run-Down Town

• Artist: heathrin16
• Description: This song is pretty much how a lot of people from small towns might feel about where they live. I myself live in a small ghetto like town in washington state, there are some good things but mostly you just want to get out as soon as you can. YOu dont' want to be stuck where you are you want to acomplish all your dreams, and you feel you can't do it where you live now. So I present to you this song. This is for all of the small town folk out there on gaia. Enjoy!
  OH and By the way *=speak.

Lyrics
I've lived here for such a long, long time
But now I think its time for me to say goodbye
It was great for a little while but now I can't stay any longer
For the longer I'm here the less and less I'm stronger.
Chorus
I"m not gonna stay in this Run-Down Town
I'll be packing my things when graduation comes around
The thought of being stuck here for the rest of my life
Builds up too much stress and strife
I'm not gonna stay in this Run-Down Town
And by the time graduation finally draws near
Repeat 2 (I'm gonna get the heck out of here, oh oh)

Sure I'll miss my friends and my family
But my friends and family agree with me
For they dont' wanna be stuck here either
Oo__Were all gonna leave together
As soon as my sister and I are done with school
Were all gonna get out of this bottom of the threshpool
And finally the real journey can begin
This town will be lucky if they even see my face again
Chorus
I'm sick and tired of this place
I feel like i'm living in a town of disgrace
There's nothing to do and nothing to see
So what's the freakin point of a tourist industry? __
Choursx2
Repeat 3 (I"m gonna get the heck out of here! oh oh)
Run__________ Down________ *Town*

As long as you put your songs on gaia i will keep reading them. This is magnificant. Most people feel this way. I can honestly say i feel this way. im stuck in a run-down town and it feels i can't accomplish my dreams here. i either want to be a great and stupendous writer like you or a psycologist. So great to follow your dreams and hopes. Keep on going!!!!
