American Authors – Neighborhood lyrics

(feat. Bear Rinehart of NEEDTOBREATHE)

[Verse 1: Zac Barnett]
I left my mother feelin' sick in her bedroom
My daddy 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 them too?
My best friend is stealing money from my pocket
I guess it's time to go, and they said

[Pre-Chorus: Zac Barnett]
"Who, who are you? Who are you really anymore?"
I said, "Who, who am I? I don't know what I'm heading for"

[Chorus: Zac Barnett]
I said, "Oh no, oh no, I'm leaving 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

[Verse 2: Bear Rinehart]
I threw my troubles and my bags in the backseat
Pulled up a drive for one last look
She was standin' in the doorway lonely
After leanin' in close and she said

[Pre-Chorus: Bear Rinehart]
"Who, who are you? Who are you really anymore?"
I said, "Who, who am I? I don't know what I'm fighting for"

[Chorus: Zac Barnett]
I said, "Oh no, oh no, I'm leaving again"
I said "Goodbye, so long" to my, my neighborhood
And I know, I know I'll see you again (See you again)
'Cause I'll always, always come back to my, to my neighborhood
To my neighborhood
To my neighborhood

[Bridge: Bear Rinehart]
Came back last night just to see you
It's been too long but nothing's changed
I'm trying to be the one that you can't be
Maybe these dreams, they all to blame
I can hear it in your voice that you do know
It's not a choice for me to stay
So long, goodbye to the neighbourhood
To my neighbourhood

[Chorus: Zac Barnett & Bear Rinehart]
I said, "Oh no, oh no, I'm leaving again, I'm leaving 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, come back to my, to my neighborhood
My neighborhood, My neighborhood
My neighborhood, My neighborhood
My neighborhood
