Wanna tell my mom the things I've done that keep me at arm's length How I cheated through my classes, the toxins in my brain Wanna warn my younger self about the fool he'll come to be I'd tell him don't go chasing rhythms if you can't stand to move your feet Spend a lot of time debating who I think I'm supposed to be Cause I'm afraid of all the damage that always comes from being me Like how I said I'd never learn when I was only seventeen Or how I lost the only love I knew when I was twenty-three Tired of feeling like the party's over When everybody says it's just begun A buck short and another day older Guess I can't outrun the sun Not made of money, but it's making sense When how it goes just becomes how it went Misdirecting my affection Guess I haven't learned my lesson If there's one thing that I know its that I'll let myself fall down Everybody's counting on me to make every second count Easygoing, apathetic, too content with loneliness Never quite cleaned out my brain, I guess I'll thrive inside the mess Tired of feeling like the party's over When everybody says it's just begun A buck short and another day older Guess I can't outrun the sun Not made of money, but it's making sense When how it goes just becomes how it went Misdirecting my affection Guess I haven't learned my lesson Tired of feeling like the party's over When everybody says it's just begun A buck short and another day older Guess I can't outrun the sun Not made of money, but it's making sense When how it goes just becomes how it went Misdirecting my affection Guess I haven't learned my lesson
