When I was a kid, I thought my life would end up different Grow up have a family, get a job that makes a difference I was fucking wrong, at 21 I’m inconsistent But progress never loved me, I’ll never love it back But what am I to say? I brace the storm, the clouds still end up gray But what am I to do? ‘Cause all my ships keep sailing back to you What’s the point of getting older? Four steps back and two steps forward You think I’m wrong I hope you’re right about life ‘Cause I feel so, I feel so cornered And I’m sorry dad, you won’t see me get my diploma I won’t walk your alma mater, but you’ve seen through this persona And I’m sorry mom, you didn’t mean to raise a coward I hear the disappointment hit the floor from off your tongue But what did you expect? I brace the storm, and I’m still feeling dead What’s the point of getting older? Four steps back and two steps forward You think I’m wrong I hope you’re right about life ‘Cause I feel so, I feel so cornered Four steps back and two steps forward Four steps back and two steps forward Four steps back and two steps forward

You said “let's talk” so we went out into the living room With family portraits seeing faces we no longer knew At nine A.M., I swear to god I never had a clue Of all the pain we’d caused when her and I slept in till noon I woke her up we grabbed our bags and went out to the car I told her I don’t feel like home is where my parents are She held my hand and so “oh I don’t think we’ll make it far With forty dollars and what’s left of all these battle scars” I don’t think You’re right Please just let me sleep in Please don’t watch me leaving It’s your fault I’m gone, it’s all your fault that I don’t belong, I feel so lost yet We could reach each other If we just had another Chance to recap, do you feel lost too Or am I at fault for who I run to? I drove her home the car was silent like the break of day Despite the fact that there were things that I just had to say “I know this isn’t what you wanted, you don’t have to stay” But she assured me that she wasn’t gonna run away The weeks had passed and it was clear that she had second thoughts I tried to talk to her, she always seemed to write it off One day she called me and she said “this isn’t what I want You’re not the guy I know, you’re just another setting sun” I might think You’re right Please just let me sleep in Please don’t watch me leaving It’s your fault I’m gone, it’s all your fault that I don’t belong, I feel so lost yet We could reach each other If we just had another Chance to recap, do you feel lost too Or am I at fault for who I run to? The fuck is wrong with me? I thought it’s meant to be I chose your side over my goddamn family And now I’m losing track Of confidence I had In finding people that could ever fucking love me back Please just let me sleep in Please don’t watch me leaving It’s your fault I’m gone, it’s all your fault that I don’t belong, I feel so lost yet We could reach each other If we just had another Chance to recap, do you feel lost too Or am I at fault for who I run to?

Do you remember the time we slept in your living room As the TV danced through the night? The sound of your heart rang through my ears You were so warm Do you remember the night I said I’m sorry for The way you see me now? Of course you don’t Those words were unread Just wait until the morning I hope it’s not the last time I say goodbye, but if it is I wish you all the goddamn luck in this world and I want you to know, it was so worth it Just to know you Do you remember the night you asked me never to Fall in love with you? I hate to say I think I lied But you knew it too Do you remember the day I drove across the state Just to see you once again? I wish I did It never happened Just wait until the morning I hope it’s not the last time I say goodbye, but if it is I wish you all the goddamn luck in this world and I want you to know, it was so worth it I hope it’s not the last time I say goodbye, but if it is I wish you all the fucking luck in this world and I want you to know, it was fucking worth it Just to know you
