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 foresight
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
