Fell asleep in my warmest clothes
safe in the knowledge it was summer back home
Woke up next to a pile of rat shit
feeling like a pile of rat shit
With my ears ringing from weeks of shows
cities I can't remember populated by people I don't know
And I've never felt better or more full of hope
never been so competently able to cope
We went for breakfast at your parents' house
I felt inspired by everything we spoke about
Electric letters for free I send you while you sleep
Are all coming back to haunt me now
I miss the little sounds you make when you wake up
Miss the entire notion of waking up next to you
With our knotted hair tangled on the pillows that we shared
And from here I can see my high school
And I can see my parents' house
Can see the people I grew up with
And the excuses I have buried them in now
And from here I can see my high school
And I can see my parents' house
Can see the people I grew up with
And the excuses I have buried them in now
And I don't deserve anywhere near this much
No I don't deserve anywhere near this much
Sleeping in basements with all five of us,
