You come in hot, and killing slowly
I knew you'd be up to the task
Give me some authenticity
Or is that too much to ask?
Cause I don't think so

You had the path, feel like a hero
Yeah, I always thought you would
Never needed you to be perfect
Just needed you to be there
I guess that's a no.

You can leave this town, change your name,
be the stranger you became
Close the door, throw the key
Be a chapter, A think piece

It's always harder in December
I don't know why, it just is
Too many years to dismember
Trying to make sense of all of this
It never works

You can leave this town, change your name,
be the stranger you became
Close the door, throw the key
Be a chapter, A think piece
A think piece

You come in hot, and killing slowly
I knew you'd be up to the task
Give me some authenticity
Or is that too much to ask?
Cause I don't think so

You can leave this town, change your name,
be the stranger you became
Close the door, throw the key
Be a chapter, A think piece
Can stick around, stay the same
I won't be there to try to tame
Your perfect storm will have to be
A closed chapter, A think piece
A think piece
