If I Try To Leave Lyrics by Deer Tick

Emotional Contracts

2023

[Verse 1]
If I try to leave
I won't know where I'm going
If I reach up my sleeve
I'll find my compass broken
Aw, who would take my place
If I were to go?
If I were to leave
For destinations unknown
[Verse 2]
If I try to leave
And find another future
Leave you in your grief
And other desperate measures
Some animals survive
But I only play dead
If I were to leave
From my own beloved
[Chorus]
The same old town
But I don't make the samе rounds
The same old man
But I ain't with the old crowd
[Verse 3]
I don't havе to try hard
Loving you is easy
You know sometimes I wish
That you'd still try to teach me
Let love do me in
Love me 'til the end
I could never leave
You know I'd lose an old friend
[Chorus]
The same old town
But I don't make the same rounds
The same old man
But I ain't with the old crowd
[Bridge]
If I try to leave
I won't know where I'm going
If I reach up my sleeve
I'll find my compass broken
[Chorus]
The same old town
But I don't make the same rounds
The same old man
But I ain't with the old crowd
