lyrics

Oh college town
Dull and ancient
I am leaving
Today

With all your history
Please forget me
Hide your memories
All Away

With every brick you laid
Take your hate away
Call a truce
On yesterday

I am worn down
From a jealous town
I'm on my way now
All the way

There's a new life
Waiting for me
I think about it
Night and day

And I've been gone now
In my mind
For quite some time now
All the way

Weary as the bones
Beneath a tombstone
Take me where
I can lay

Away from college town
To the West land
Mountains canyons
All the way

There's nothing left but you for me
There's nothing left but you for me
Oh college town, you killed me

There's nothing left but you for me
There is nothing left but you for me
Oh college town, C'est la vie

C'est la vie
