What You Came Here For
This ain't what you came here for
Still a tourist as before
The whiskey's new, the friends are old
I'm growing young, never adult
Fingers to the figures though
Authority I couldn't roll with, no no no
Watch em slowly eyes rolling, rolling, rolling oh no no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
I can tell that this wasn't what you expected
Had a future, a home, and then I left it
I can tell that this wasn't what you wanted
No, everything I did went against your suggestions
And I'm aging, getting older, pretendin' that my mind found the
Fountain of youth
The worlds getting colder but I believe that time moves
Backwards with you
And I can tell that
This ain't what you came here for
Still a tourist at the door
The whiskey's new the friends are old
I'm growing young, never adult
Finger to the figures though
Authority I couldn't roll with
Watch em slowly eyes rolling, rolling, rolling oh no no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
It's been 10 years maybe
My heads grown so weary
Everyday changed to memories
Lines clear now so faded
And bothered by secrets untold
Followed lies I'd somehow know
That we weren't so patient
Innocence entangled our youth
And I can tell that
This ain't what you came here for
Still a tourist at the door
The whiskey's new the friends are old
I'm growing young, never adult
Finger to the figures though
Authority I couldn't roll with
Watch em slowly eyes rolling, rolling, rolling oh no no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
Still a tourist as before
The whiskey's new, the friends are old
I'm growing young, never adult
Fingers to the figures though
Authority I couldn't roll with, no no no
Watch em slowly eyes rolling, rolling, rolling oh no no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
I can tell that this wasn't what you expected
Had a future, a home, and then I left it
I can tell that this wasn't what you wanted
No, everything I did went against your suggestions
And I'm aging, getting older, pretendin' that my mind found the
Fountain of youth
The worlds getting colder but I believe that time moves
Backwards with you
And I can tell that
This ain't what you came here for
Still a tourist at the door
The whiskey's new the friends are old
I'm growing young, never adult

Watch em slowly eyes rolling, rolling, rolling oh no no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no

Watch em slowly eyes rolling, rolling, rolling oh no no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
No no no no no no
