Matt Blaustein - 953 Miles Away Lyrics

Leave me alone
Can't sleep, let me go home
Where is home? No one knows
Let me just go home tonight
I don't, wanna go
Just let me stay in here alone
Just be prepared, because no one knows
How scared I am to go, scared I am to go

953 miles away from
Scarsdale, New York is Madison, Wisconsin
And I'll be there for, four years of my life
I'll come back, but most of the time I'll be

953 miles away
Nothing will change the friends I've made
The people I know, this town is my home
It's been a recurring theme, I know

953 miles away
That's where for four years I will stay
953 miles away
Can you help me, can you help me survive

953 miles away
Can you help me live another day?

I'm improvising all these lyrics
I know that if you're listening you'd probably notice
How it's weird what I'm saying right now
Like I've gone off script, but I don't know how

Well I'm singing in my room
It's June 7th 2019, 6:54 PM
And I'm tired, I just got my yearbook
I'm really tired, I'm thinking about

How I'll be 953 miles away next year
953 different ways to say I'll miss you, and it's true

953 miles away, that's where Madison lays
I can't forget the people I know and the memories I've made
Thank you Edgemont, I'm going away

953 miles away
I'm going to Madison, half across the USA

Maybe this is goodbye, for now
