Team Callahan - Winter After Graduation Lyrics

Graduation came and went
It's the flash sitting in the pan
Friends talk and come and go
Fade away like my summer tan
Now it's cold and I'm alone
Cutting bangs and spending cash
I miss the lecture hall, the school of thought
Highway driving and cutting class
All that blood and stress and spit
So I can say I have career dreams
Yeah, I've got a vision for this game
Run straight toward the light
Run straight toward the real
Divorce this American pyramid scheme
Don't leave the house for the crazy world
But the crazy is inside of me
Pour it out into a song
It's not real until it's outside me
Don't let them take away your fight
Put you in a box of what is true and what is not
Stick to your guns put down that flag
Shoot a bullet bent to strike their con
See the city shattered like a globe
The world all turning like a nervous top
Jobs and cars don't matter now
In your afterglow
This life's a two-star show
Draw the curtain
Carry me, carry my load
Remember rivers, buried jars
I'm driving backwards to the West
Arcade, gold mine, faded jeans
Holy trees and white man's conquest
Starting over, starting fresh
Engineering, picket fence
Don't let me lose myself, my soul
For something changeable or material
Draw a circle on my arm
I'm getting closer to my Lord
This world is shallow and it is shell
A bored reflection
A lost generation
With no direction
We can't find a way to get back home
