They'll send you up to Tennessee
700 miles away
But forbid with a passion that you'll ever see me
Or talk to me, not with your voice, but even worse, typed out texts never voiced to be heard, and sadly not by choice

They'll send you up to Tennessee
Nearly 1,000 miles away
But I'm still down in Florida with me, where you should be
We're Romeo and Juliet, but this version is one-sided
A family feud, excluding 2, and add the fact my family doesn't have hate for you

They'll send you up to Tennessee
Which feels 10,000 miles away
I always loved you from a far
And close I can feel your heart
Can somebody tell me why it hurts more just knowing you're this far

They'll send you up to Tennessee
An eternity away
But give 1,000,000 opinionated worn out excuses for why you shouldn't be loving me
They render you mental, and tell you you're mad,
For you shouldn't converse with a "psychopath"
They tell you I'm crazy, a worthless piece of trash, because I have all these piercings I'm not gods craft

They'll send you up to Tennessee
An infinity away
I'll do whatever it takes to keep you as mine, if I have to I'll fight till the end of time
And if I get hit in the line just call me you bloody valentine

They'll send you up to Tennessee
700 miles away
Anywhere as long as it's not near me, they'd be happy to let you leave
It just kinda hurts knowing, a person who won't take a chance to know me
Apparently because I look like a freak
Will send her son to Tennessee
Before allowing him to speak to me
