You're On Your Own Kid
Summer went awayStill the yearning staysI play it coolWith the best of them
I wait patientlyHe’s gonna notice meIt’s okayWe’re the best of friends
Anyway, i hear it in your voiceYou’re smoking with your boysI touch my phoneAs if it’s your face
I didn’t choose this townI dream of getting outThere’s just oneWho could make me stay
All my days
From sprinkler splashesTo fireplace ashesI waited agesTo see you there
I search the partyOf better bodiesJust to learnThat you never cared
You’re on your own kidYou always have been
I see the great escapeSo long, daisy mayI picked the petalsHe loves me not
Something different bloomedWriting in my roomI play my songsIn the parking lotI’ll run away
From sprinkler splashesTo fireplace ashesI called a taxiTo take me there
I search the partyOf better bodiesJust to learnThat my dreams aren’t rare
You’re on your own kidYou always have been
From sprinkler splashesTo fireplace ashesI gave my bloodSweat and tears for this
I hosted partiesAnd starved my bodyLike i’d be savedBy a perfect kiss
The jokes weren’t funnyI took the moneyMy friends from homeDon’t know what to say
I looked aroundIn a blood-soaked gownAnd i saw somethingThey can’t take away
Cause there were pagesTurned with the bridges burnedEverything you lose is a step you take
So make the friendship braceletsTake the moment and taste itYou’ve got no reason to be afraidYou’re on your own kid
Yeah you can face thisYou’re on your own kidYou always have been
Watch now
