Normal

Well the grass keeps growing I can't bring myself to mow it I can't bring myself to grin Walked down a strangers street, know I was born with 2 left feet Cobblestones aren't helping Magnolia petals stained my new white shoes Congratulations feels like bad news Life is happening faster than I can catch my breath So I hit the ground running and I don't look back Oh I pictured all these days years prior Saw me graduated, wise and old Not a dead-beat suburb-street beer-day-drinking In this college town gone cold Smell lilac trees and Mary Jane But we're all sober on loneliness Cooped up in haunted 20th century homes Wasting away while our "good old days" unfold Maybe its that life is all a-counting The grades till we got here, the days till we're moving Classes and credits and bachelors of sad memories Got my pockets stuffed full of regrets The sun crowing 4 years came and went I found coffee and lost and found a few friends I wanna press these days between pages and save them Oh I wanna save them And I know that I cant see a minute of the future The trains rolling by a tree falling on the front steps A last closing shift, a tassel that don't feel final But we do what we can and we do what we will I'm sure we'll all end up where were supposed to fall I heard somewhere that so long just means "see you later" I'm scared straight to step foot outta here Move across the country for a dead end career Guitar-slinging half-playing empty-brained son-of-a-gun I'm a failure at 20 cause I'm not 16 No plan for tomorrow, should be booked till 3 Falling behind my class faster than I wanna be I'll never know what I don't if nobody will teach me Nobody will teach me I'm sure we'll cross in a city somewhere And not recognize each others new tattoos and hair I hope to god you're not stuck in a 9-to-5 I hope the sun's out and it's a beautiful day And we can still talk and laugh and have plenty to say Talk of the dreams we have now in the "achieved" sense I won't miss this town but I'll miss my friends I'll miss my friends It's all come to an end It's all come to an end It's all come to an end
