you didn’t think id make it up to DC
it's been a while since we had cussed over coffee
its so hard to explain when you call how things have been
i've been at war with this year and Im afraid to say I cant win
but I try and I try and I try and I try
to feel alive and get by and stay high on the times after the long drawn out goodbye
so there I am corner seat reeking of pabst
thinking my best years had slipped from my grasp
a junkie romantic shooting up nostalgic smack
you go down that road kid you’re never coming back
and the sad part of it is
that lately you’ve been just a telephone and a reason its hard to stay positive
we used to sit back to back in the sunrise
dreaming up a neverender of passing statelines
and in those dreams we never compromised
so dont compromise.
one day i'll write the story about you and me
only 2 copies sold book of the century
'cause I wanna believe that our lives are
interesting enough to talk about
that we are dynamic characters
in an interwoven plot that’s far from done
so he stumbles through the streets singing old songs to strangers
who the hell thought we were ready to be graduates?
and its so hard to explain when you call how things have been
been at war with the drag and im afraid to say I cant win
