lyrics

A lonely collaborative,
I'm
Accustomed to
Unpleasant facts and deadlines passed
And seemingly falling apart at the seams and

Escalating indifference
I'm
Grasping at
A balancing act, ill piggyback
Until you give out and we fall together

Hanging out
With you and my friends, getting drunk on the weekend

Better yet,
Listening to records, stay up late together, sleep through your classes, you'll wake up, feel better!

Or else,

We'll spend our whole lives living in thoughts of tomorrow.

Graduate stagnante
I’m
Feeling small
I’m unrecalled, no wherewithal,
The world moved on and I’m moved back home

It’s been a long time coming
I
Can't keep track
Of panic attacks and political hacks
And nuanced approaches to doing the same things

Hanging out
With you and my friends, getting drunk on the weekend

Better yet,
Listening to records, stay up late together, sleep through your classes, you'll wake up, feel better!

Or else,

We'll spend our whole lives living in thoughts of tomorrow.

And we'll spend the whole night singing like assholes going nowhere.

I've been impatiently waiting for change through letters.
I've read of ancient regimes disassembled.
I've let rest a past undone.

We'll spend our whole lives living in thoughts of tomorrow.

And we'll spend the whole night singing like assholes going nowhere.
