The writing went on the wall when you walked out that door
Your memory's like a work of art, one I've never seen before
You're a permanent tattoo on every avenue
We'd ever been down
Every coffee shop, corner bar we used to go
You're still hanging around

If you didn't love to vandalize, I would've been over your goodbye
And not wasting none of my time, wanna cry like, oh
But you had to go and leave your mark
All around on the town of my heart
I remember when the streets were clean, when it was you and me
Now everywhere I look, there's graffiti, yeah, yeah
Now everywhere I look, there's graffiti, yeah, yeah

Reminding me that you were here, reminding me that we were us
Taking everything I've seen and turning it back into what it was
You're a permanent tattoo on every avenue
We drove through in your car
At the parking lot, behind the school, at the broken streetlight
There you are

If you didn't love to vandalize, I would've been over your goodbye
And not wasting none of my time, wanna cry like, oh
But you had to go and leave your mark
All around on the town of my heart
But I remember when the streets were clean, when it was you and me
Now everywhere I look, there's graffiti, yeah, yeah
Now everywhere I look, there's graffiti, yeah, yeah

It's kinda like you're over me in every underpass
Everything in front of me just brings you back

If you didn't love to vandalize, I would've been over your goodbye
And not wasting none of my time, wanna cry like, oh
But you had to go and leave your mark
All around on the town of my heart
But I remember when the streets were clean, when it was you and me
Now everywhere I look, there's graffiti, yeah, yeah
Now everywhere I look, there's graffiti, yeah, yeah
Now everywhere I look, there's graffiti, yeah, yeah
Oh, all around on the town of my heart
