Three Years
[Verse 1]
Ten lies in I always wonder
"What's the fucking point?"
I'm still talking to an empty room
You're gone and I missed my flight
To Philadelphia, we've never met
I keep her on the wall
She looks so pretty far away from me
[Verse 2]
Ten beers in I always think I've had enough
To have one more
Spend each night like it's my last:
Cold and shaking on a dirty floor in Narragansett
I miss the way my parents sang at night
Before the fights
Before I turned off all the lights and hit the wall
[Verse 3]
Everyday I wonder why
I don't wanna go outside
[Verse 4]
Ten weeks in I always think I've found a reason
Not to stay
I looked my family in the eyes last summer
Turned and ran away
I have a brother that I love
This whole room can hear him screaming
I remember trampolining
Feels like years to me
[Verse 5]
So I say I'm doing fine
It's okay to wake up crying
"I don't wanna go outside."
[Outro]
Three years feels like such a long time
Till you're two weeks from the finish line
And everyone is cheering you on
Take me back, I'm fine
And all I wanna do is fall asleep tonight
And wake between the pines
Take me back, I'm fine
