The Wonder Years - Came Out Swinging lyrics

rate me

Moved all my shit into my parent's basement

And out of our old apartment

I know things changed but I'm not sure when

I guess you'd call this regression

I left a real job and a girlfriend

I convinced myself that I'm brave enough for all of this

Well, I spent this whole year in airports

And the floor feels like home

Oh, at least we're never alone

I lost track of the time zones and I'd call but you know

I'm running on empty

The late nights and the long drives start to get to me

I'm just so tired

Chorus:

I spent this year as a ghost and I'm not sure what I'm looking for

I'm a voice on a phone that you rarely answer anymore

I came in here alone

Came in here alone

But that doesn't scare me like it did seven months ago

I spent this year as a ghost and I'm not sure where home is anymore

Been on a steady fast food diet

Like we're this generation's Morgan Spurlock

But we don't admit defeat

My body feels rejected and I can't say that I blame it

My heart keeps saying stay young

My lower back seems to disagree

I unrolled a cheap cotton blanket on an old dirty couch

I felt the year start to wind down

I can't stand any dead space

Empty beds bum me out

Chorus:

I spent this year as a ghost and I'm not sure what I'm looking for

I'm a voice on a phone that you rarely answer anymore

I came in here alone

Came in here alone

But that doesn't scare me like it did seven months ago

I spent this year as a ghost and I'm not sure where home is anymore

I came out swinging from a South Philly basement

Caked in stale beer and sweat under half-lit fluorescents

I spent the winter writing songs about getting better

And if I'm being honest, I'm getting there

I came out swinging from a South Philly basement

Caked in stale beer and sweat under half-lit fluorescents

I spent the winter writing songs about getting better

And if I'm being honest, I'm getting there

I came out swinging from a South Philly basement

Caked in stale beer and sweat under half-lit fluorescents

I spent the winter writing songs about getting better

And if I'm being honest, I'm getting there
