College ends in may
I hope I find a job that pays
A little more than minimum wage
Pray for some sun and a place to stay
And the 90's died and ran away
20 years caught in a daze
The only thing that remains plain as day
Is lakeview lost field day
Let's dye our hair grey
We'll beat old father time to the chase
We'll drink cheap wine and toast to our fate
Pretend that we're happy
Oh we'll never change
If we close our eyes we'll stay the same
We all know that's a lie but hey,
It's worth the shot kid, don't complain
It's a long way down,
But I can see the bottom
Let's hope these wings will blossom before we hit the ground
Keep these fears alive
Through every nightmare that arrives
I fear that time is not on my side
I've never been good with forsight
There used to be a peace of mind Where I could draw a silver line
But lately I've been drawn so tight
It's a long way down,
But I can see the bottom
Let's hope these wings will blossom before we hit the ground
My eyes might stare forward, but my heart is still homeward bound
I wrote this cause I couldn't sleep
I hope it comforts somebody
I wrote this for a younger me
I hope that he'd be proud of me
It's a long way
It's a long way
Oh my god the sun is rising,
(It's a long way down but I can see the bottom)
Keep your cool and mind your timing
(Let's hope these wings will blossom)
Close your eyes
(Before we hit the ground)
Jump on my count, jump on my count
Oh my god the sun is rising,
(It's a long way down but I can see the bottom)
Keep your cool and mind your timing
(Let's hope these wings will blossom)
Close your eyes
(Before we hit the ground)
Jump on my count, jump on my count
It's a long way
