thanksgiving break

It's Thanksgiving break and I can't find a way
To make my head stop spinning
Quarter to five, I can only sing songs I write
I've had two coffees, I've got no place to be
I call my friend, she's with her whole family
So, then I got no one else to see
I never cry, only under the fairy lights
Of my childhood heaven, not so cheery of me
All I know is I can't let go
Of my unsung hometown hero
What's caught up in August, have you forgotten?
By now, should've lost it
Ooh, I drive just to get out
Ooh, I wonder which one's your house
And I made myself promise on the last summer solstice
I'd leave it all once we entered fall
Back to college, I wish we lost touch
If we did I'd be chilling in my best friend's kitchen
Ooh, I wonder when you're around
Ooh, have you been to downtown yet?
I tricked myself so I wanted to go back to Boston
But like a summer job, we're no good for more than a few months
No guarantee, you'd even wanna see me
Me and my empty home screen
Fell to my knees when you called me pretty
Back when we were just teens, now school's worn out my jeans
I bitch and moan 'cause I can't let go
Of my unsung hometown hero
I'm caught up in August, have you forgotten?
By now, should've lost it
Ooh, I drive 'cause the music's louder
Ooh, I've wondered which songs you sing in the shower
And I made myself promise on the last summer solstice
I'd leave it all once we entered fall
Back to college, I wish we lost touch
If we did, I wouldn't be missing all my family's traditions
Ooh, I wonder whose house you're at now
Ooh, have you been back around yet?
I tricked myself so I wanted to go back to Boston
But like a summer job, we're no good for more than a few months
I can't find anyone like you
Maybe this city's not made for two
Why was I so afraid to tell you?
Back in August, I wish I had gotten
A chance to confess it
But, you probably guessed it
Ooh, the highway's coming up your exit
Ooh, it takes a second not to go down it
