I try to live up to the times I've seen But I'm feeling broke and seventeen Reduced to things I have to do Always the eyes, never the view They say that you're not really choosing me You're biding time and using me But if that's why you're here Girl, I don't mind Come back next year Wake up one day 'Cause I got no other way to make you need me Wake up one day And it's not your job to make things easy Wake up one day With some grand vision of motives and irony And no one in love with me I stood on tried and true philosophies When I should've been down on my knees You push and I feel like I should shove And are we gonna be left with anything like love? Wake up one day 'Cause I got no better way to make you need me Wake up one day And it's not your job to make things easy Wake up one day With some grand vision of motives and irony And no one in love with me
