Object Permanence by Jason Call - Daphne Loves Derby

I’ve made plans to do what I do best and run away from this place
‘Cause I’m convinced this city was built just to remind me of all my mistakes
And honestly I never thought I’d leave this way
If I stay… I’m sure it won’t be long until I break apart, break apart again.

Everything has changed.

I’ll paint over my bedroom walls
You’ll never know I was here at all
I’ll pretend what happened here, never really happened at all, at all.

I’m leaving home again. I will be gone all summer long.
I can’t deny it’s hard to go, but I do what I have to, do what I have to.
Don’t wait for me. I don’t think I’m coming back again.
I’ve lost everything that’s kept me. So I’m moving on for good this time

And now…

I can’t recall why I used to love this place.
I’m so afraid that I will remember, everything. Everything again.
It’s hard to sleep when my walls constantly sing.
They shout “wake up, wake up, you’re in no shape to rest!”
And I can’t escape what you can’t undo.

I’m leaving home again. I will be gone all summer long.
I can’t deny it’s hard to go, but I do what I have to, do what I have to.
Don’t wait for me. I don’t think I’m coming back again.
I’ve lost everything that’s kept me. So I’m moving on for good this time.

I’m holding on to the last of my hope and I might have to let it go.
But I don’t think it matters, yeah, I don’t think it matters.

I’m leaving home again. I will be gone all summer long.
I can’t deny it’s hard to go, but I do what I have to, do what I have to.
Don’t wait for me. I don’t think I’m coming back again.
I’ve lost everything that’s kept me. So I’m moving on for good this time.
