Thought we hit the end of the road
We had only gone where we were told
Some days the rain dropped right on time
Gave me the beat to write what's on my mind
Some days the rain just weighed it down and kept it heavy inside
Then I woke up at 23 and I'm finding it harder to believe
That they're nothing like me, yeah they're nothing like me
And now I'm staying up to balance the receipt
Working to find the money and time for you and me
And you're waiting so patiently
Baby can you hear it coming in the night air
Baby can you hear it, it's our lullaby yeah
Baby can you hear it, the crowds they are cheering for you
Like you always knew
All these letters sent are never returned with the same intent
Oh when will I learn
It's getting harder not to resent it
Oh I know you've felt it too
It's got me acting, it's got me acting out
Oh how'd this happened
You always knew somehow
Sitting there on the couch
Listening to the same old story for hours now
But baby can you hear it coming in the night air?
Baby can you hear it, it's our lullaby yeah
Baby can you hear it, the crowds they are cheering for you
Oh baby can you hear it coming in the night air?
Baby can you hear it, it's our lullaby yeah
Baby can you hear it, the crowds they are cheering for you
Like you always knew
Baby can you hear it coming in the night air?
Baby can you hear it, it's our lullaby yeah
Baby can you hear it, the crowds they are cheering for you
Like you always knew
I woke up at 23
And I'm finding it harder to believe
