i went to college in a small town you never miss your friends till they're not around spent a summer in servitude to a fan spent a winter drowning ourselves in a can showed up to smog with a six-pack in my hand drank a liter or maybe more till i went down you never know how much is too much till you're going down they never say you've had enough till you hit the ground i'm not old enough to quit but i can't be around myself all my friends wish i drank more i was looking for some pretty face in the crowd she pulled me out to the pasture and she pushed me to the ground the grass was cold and wet on the back of my jeans her lips were cold and wet till i pushed her off me she said you gotta learn to say what you feel i said how can i feel when it's this cold here? you never know how much is too much till you're going down they never say you've had enough till you hit the ground i'm not old enough to quit but i can't be around myself all my friends wish i drank more

i was driving through west texas with your arm around my shoulder when you asked me to pull over so we could stand in the middle of the road we're going home we're going home baby you're my home from the plains down to the shore they say it don't rain here any more so we pull out a cassette and listen to a song i'll soon forget we're going home we're going home baby you're my home i can't hear your voice over the sound of my own inner monologue we were driving through west texas with your arm around my shoulder when you asked me to pull over so we could stand in the middle of the road we're going home we're going home baby you're my home i can't hear your voice over the sound of my own inner monologue

everybody's going for their mfa in the art of artistry then you've got the so-called slackers just making their way down the myth of self-made you know it's cold out there that's what you've got your sweater drawer for i'm just trying to turn up for every here's hoping we turn out better than i would be eternally grateful for saturn's return turn turn turn turn saturn's return turn turn turn turn saturn's return everybody's looking for their longterm lover to adore when they find them they're ready to take over the world making up breaking waking up on the couch alone man i've never seen you get so low you know it's cold out there that's what you've got your space suit for i'm just trying to turn up for every here's hoping we turn out better than i would be eternally grateful for saturn's return turn turn turn turn saturn's return turn turn turn turn saturn's return

i feel safe at michael's house we're just hanging out shootin' the shit and watching tv it's a comedy about a couple slackers working at a catering company when i get home you're talking to chisa on the telephone i wish you were talking to me telling me about your day while i'm brushing my teeth this isn't how it's supposed to be but supposed to isn't in our vocabulary i wanna be set free not so insecure but i don't wanna be that free cause i'm afraid i'll float right up into a tree i'm sedimentary not so easy breezy i drove you to poughkeepsie you're taking the train down south to the big city meeting chris at the bean taking time apart from all the shit that you've been dealing with cause you've had highs and you've had lows and both at the same time i just wanna be there for you make you feel special after all i know you've gone through this isn't how it's supposed to be but supposed to isn't in our vocabulary i wanna be set free not so insecure but i don't wanna be that free cause i'm afraid i'll float right up into a tree i'm sentimentally not so easy breezy
