This is no way to spend these years
You stand up straight and smile
But I see you fighting back your tears
And now I fear
The day I want those pills that you clutch
Aren’t you sick of answering not much
How long can you stay silent my friend
People wanna hear your voice again
But not them
They don’t care about you anyway
You’ve gotta get away
Not them
They were waiting for you to fuck it up
Not them
They never cared about you anyway
So just be on your way
Not them
They were waiting for you
Baiting for you
If this is no place to spend these years
Then why am I still here
Check my bags
I’ll be back next year
It’s a collision course without an impact
Time flies when you’re having no fun
You called it a quest but you’ve given up
You know you’ve been doing this so long
You don’t need that lens to see yourself in me
So are we doing something wrong
How long can you stay silent my friend
People wanna hear your voice again
But not them
They don’t care about you anyway
You’ve gotta get away
Not them
They were waiting for you to fuck it up
Not them
They never cared about you anyway
So just be on your way
Not them
They were waiting for you
Baiting for you
Thirty five years between us
But we both landed here
Do we call this stop a destination
The answer isn’t clear
You ring on Monday morning
While Friday night is still ringing in my ears
You could scream but it would never get to them
I’m the only one that hears
And I see you fighting back your tears

at this age reminded me of the naive optimism of high school. dent is more like the college student who tries to remain optimistic in the face of a world that contradicts itself at every turn. fartintheelevator
