Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hand-me-down dreams got me high in the rafters
Homecoming queen couldn't be an outsider
So there I'd sit, with a cigarette lit, in a leather jacket
I found a boy who was a stranger too
In a one-horse town at a table for two
We had matching scars and matching tattoos
Both dyin' to fit in
Ain't that some shit?
We're just small town hypocrites
[Verse 2]
And that scholarship was a ship that sailed
When I chose you and daddy gave me hell
I made myself into someone else just to love you, damn, I loved you
Took all my plans and I put 'em in a box
Phantom pains for the wings I lost
Had me circling rings in the catalogs
For seven years, and you never got the hint
Ain't that some shit?
I'm just a small town hypocrite
[Chorus]
Swore we'd be running, running, running this town
But you're just running, running, running around
And I'm staring at a picket fence
Wonderin' where the hell time went
I should've been running, running, running by now
But I just hang around
Love shot me out like a rocket
Never to return, and man, I forgot it
How it feels to fall from orbit and land on shifting sands
I found my heart at the bottom of a bucket
You said you needed space, and damnit, I bought it
'Til you moved in a vinyl-sided double-wide with a couple of her kids
Ain't that some shit?
You're just a small town hypocrite
[Chorus]
Swore we'd be running, running, running this town
But you're still running, running, running around
And I'm staring at a picket fence
Wonderin' where the hell time went
I should've been running, running, running by now
But I just hang around
[Outro]
Oh, now I bitch about how things turned and how they should've been
The bridges that I burned and the trains I didn't catch
Like a small town hypocrite
Just a small town hypocrite
