Wake up, don't break down
Just get up, there's a life that you want
And you don't have a lot of time
It's early, you've gotta go out
Don't regret staying up last night
Unless you plan to change something
'Cause you don't got a lot of time
And you'll go uptown this time today
Don't be scared you've gotta learn things somehow
I know it's safer inside
And you'll talk to someone today
Don't be scared, you've gotta risk it sometimes
I know it's safer in the woods
Let's go out, get noodles
It's something that I never had
Living back in the woods
It was nice there, it was quiet
I made my mind there, but I just stayed at home
Though I just had a lot of time
And I just had a lot of time
Now it's gone but I've got something else
People that can take me outside
I can learn directly this time
And I'll miss those hours alone
In the field, crying about East of Eden
But now I can learn those lessons for real
Everywhere I go, I'm starting to miss
Everything that happened to me
Everywhere I go, I'm starting to miss
The places I used to live
And everywhere I go, I'm starting to miss
The friends that I used to have
And everywhere I go, I'm starting to miss
All the people I hardly knew
No matter where you go, you can't get caught up
In anything that used to be
No matter where you go, you can't get hung up
On ideas of what could have been, oooh
So scream out my name from across the whole city
I think I could hear it if you yell loud enough
And I'll open my ear drums and I'll stretch out my neck
Because it's hard to know where you stand without some feedback
And I might be wrong about this
But I feel I can change
At the peak of my confidence, I had my delusions
I climbed too high, I could not see the bottom
I was so alone that, the world lost it's meaning
But I just kept climbing 'til I burst through the ceiling
And I might be wrong
But I think I can change
Sitting in the back seat
Listening to a song that we love
Though we heard so many times before
And I hope we hear so many more
And I've said too much about my self
And not enough about the friends who've helped me
Thanks for giving me your time
And not just in practical ways
Like staying with you when I hardly knew you
Just thanks for talking to me
So thanks for sticking around, I'll try to stick around here too
Let's hang out sometime next weekend
