This town used to be a pretty place to stay
A place you'd stop off on the highway
But all of those things changed on the day
You packed up your bags and you ran away
All they say is how you've changed
Every day I stay the same
So you can keep the necklace that I gave to you
I'll keep the shitty tattoos
I can see it from the other side
The grass isn't always as green
The house is burnt to ashes
I'm no longer in between
R.I.P., R.I.P.
You and me (x2)
I count the empty bottles up on the bar
But I give up; I can't count that far
And the lights in this place are too dim to see
They're kickin' me out
It's a quarter past three
They tell me you're all I've got
I just need these dreams to stop
You can keep the necklace that I gave to you
I'll keep the shitty tattoos
I can see it from the other side
The grass isn't always as green
The house is burnt to ashes
I'm no longer in between
R.I.P., R.I.P.
You and me (x2)
In the back of the car
On the way to your home
In the pouring rain
On the side of road
In the light of the street
In the recline of the seat
You told me I should move on (x2)
I can see it from the other side
The grass isn't always as green
The house is burnt to ashes
I'm no longer in between
R.I.P., R.I.P.
You and me (x2)
A place you'd stop off on the highway
But all of those things changed on the day
You packed up your bags and you ran away
All they say is how you've changed
Every day I stay the same
So you can keep the necklace that I gave to you
I'll keep the shitty tattoos
I can see it from the other side
The grass isn't always as green
The house is burnt to ashes
I'm no longer in between
R.I.P., R.I.P.
You and me (x2)
I count the empty bottles up on the bar
But I give up; I can't count that far
And the lights in this place are too dim to see
They're kickin' me out
It's a quarter past three
They tell me you're all I've got
I just need these dreams to stop
You can keep the necklace that I gave to you
I'll keep the shitty tattoos
I can see it from the other side
The grass isn't always as green
The house is burnt to ashes
I'm no longer in between
R.I.P., R.I.P.
You and me (x2)
In the back of the car
On the way to your home
In the pouring rain
On the side of road
In the light of the street
In the recline of the seat
You told me I should move on (x2)
I can see it from the other side
The grass isn't always as green
The house is burnt to ashes
I'm no longer in between
R.I.P., R.I.P.
You and me (x2)

i love this part..
"I can see it from the other side
The grass isn't always as green
The house is burnt to ashes
I'm no longer in between"
i think it means that they see reality now and that it isn't going to work out or that person just isn't right for them. and "i'm no longer in between" shoes that the person isn't confused anymore...they aren't in denial about the situation. they know that they just need to let the other person go.
