Lyrics

They catch the next flight
Straight to a good time
I work the late shift
Practicing goodbyes
Barely make ends meet
Running on red-eye
Play on my five-string
Till I have a good cry
I take a picture
Post to the timeline
They see me smiling
That’s on the outside
No, it’s not their fault
I show a good lie
If only they asked me
It’s not what it looks like
I blinked it’s another year
Chasing these streetlights
My cousin’s turned 21
Damn how the time flies
I gave it a good try
Least I gave it a good try
No, it’s not a big deal
But it’s big enough to me
Right now this shift feels like I’m lost in the deep
If they say time heals why the hell do I still bleed
Well maybe shits creek is where I’m meant be
Me and my cracked screen
Alone on the curbside
Making up speeches
I’d say on award nights
Thanking my family
And a love from a past life
See we never worked out
Still, I blame it on star signs
She had a kind heart
I had a cold mind
Her name’s on my five-string
Cuts deep like a gold mine
I blinked it’s another year
And she’s with a new guy
Who works in a real job
And not chasing streetlights
I gave it a good try
Atleast I gave it a good try
No, it’s not a big deal
But it’s big enough to me
Right now this shift feels like I’m lost in the deep
If they say time heals why the hell do I still bleed
Well maybe shits creek is where I’m meant be
Feel like I’m sixteen
Going on twenty-five
One way to nowhere
Just tryna stay alive
Awake with my big dreams
Up till the sunrise
If this never works out
Least I gave it a good try
