The Wonder Years - Washington Square Park lyrics
rate meIm looking for the upsides to these panic-attack nights
where Im staying in eating take-out food by TV light
Im trying to play the b-side to this awkward life of mine
You could flip me over
Id sing a few lines about how
Im so used to shooting myself in the kneecaps
standing in the way of progress or letting down my friends
Im nailing shards of hope together
to put something over my head
because you know here its always raining
and it happened again. It happened again
She said, I let this slide when we were younger
You know you dont have to write like this
The whole worlds full of losers
If you get a chance to win, take it
I stood on the roof with Matt and Molly
Watched the gray slide off the city
because its finally spring
We rode our bikes over to 6th Street
to Washington Square Park
to see if the tides would turn for me
Im nailing shards of hope together
to put something over my head
because you know here its always raining
and it happened again. It happened again
She said, I let this slide when we were younger
You know you dont have to write like this
The whole worlds full of losers
If you get a chance to win, take it
I left a lot of blood in California
on our first trip out west
I was younger and restless back then
and I thought, if no ones in my corner
since everyone left
Id better make it worth it
