Lyrics

I crossed the road like the J-walking dead Eyes glued to my phone, not a worry in my head I make mistakes most of us do But Iโ€™d rather be nothing than something I have to constantly prove I lied when I said life was easy for a working-class college kid To be honest I havenโ€™t honest rest since 2006 I waste away, getting okay grades, Iโ€™m on the dean's list but Iโ€™m still working night shift Iโ€™m almost done I can finally say But Iโ€™m too scared of the future to admit I wonโ€™t go back someday I watched the skyline take a bite of the moon That semicircle tried to roll away as it succumbed to its wounds Now thereโ€™s a coldness in these midwestern states I used to like the distance but now I canโ€™t remember your face Or remember the taste Or even know your name So now I shop local and try to expect That the things that havenโ€™t happened Maybe just havenโ€™t happened yet And I want to believe that we are more than what weโ€™d expect I donโ€™t wanna believe this is as good as it gets
