For so long I've been told
|
To give it up
|
To get a job and stop dreaming of what I'm dreaming of
|
Maybe if I was more like you
|
I'd have a single thing to say
|
I could look forward to
|
I'm not that same kid that I used to be
|
But I still got the same philosophy
|
If growing up is giving in
|
Then count on me to count myself out
|
Getting sued by my friends
|
Taught me that I can't pretend
|
That I'm immune to the rules of adult hood
|
I'd rather be a starving artist than a wealthy critic
|
I'd rather be a space cadet than bitter and jaded,
|
Brain dead and rewarded for it
|
Like everyone else my age is
|
I'm not the same kid
|
I'm not the same child
|
I may still be a prick
|
But at least I'm not a prick in denial
|
|
I wake up late just to miss the whole day
|
In this putrid spew that I call my bedroom
|
Putting on clothes just to take them off
|
In a couple of hours, why the fuck do I bother
|
I want to ride this train and hope it never stops
|
This is all I have
|
It's all I want
|
