The Arboretum Song
As kids we played in dumpsters
Whether spray-paint cans or mufflers
Finding wonders in what others left behind
Me and Zach Mahon spelt curse words
With the guidance of my sister
No legacy or consequence in mind
And time gave it all it gives
I can't repeat what I've already lived
But I'll still struggle with the what and with the why
As I keep moving with the motions
Ignoring all emotions
Lettin' life pass the most of me on by
As something else busies itself with keepin' time
Today we tested out the waters
We were Arboretum wanderers
Lettin' birds land on and eat straight out our hands
Yeah, last we night we pushed the hours
Surrendering our power
If we have to, well, I guess we'll become men
And time gave it all it gives
I can't repeat what I've already lived
But I'll still struggle with the what and with the why
As I keep moving with the motions
Ignoring all emotions
Lettin' life pass the most of me on by
As something else busies itself with keepin' time
Mmhmm
And time gave it all it gives
I can't repeat what I've already lived
But I'll still struggle with the what and with the why
As I keep moving with the motions
Ignoring all emotions
Lettin' life pass the most of me on by
As something else busies itself with keepin' time
Whether spray-paint cans or mufflers
Finding wonders in what others left behind
Me and Zach Mahon spelt curse words
With the guidance of my sister
No legacy or consequence in mind
And time gave it all it gives
I can't repeat what I've already lived
But I'll still struggle with the what and with the why
As I keep moving with the motions
Ignoring all emotions
Lettin' life pass the most of me on by
As something else busies itself with keepin' time
Today we tested out the waters
We were Arboretum wanderers
Lettin' birds land on and eat straight out our hands
Yeah, last we night we pushed the hours
Surrendering our power
If we have to, well, I guess we'll become men
And time gave it all it gives
I can't repeat what I've already lived
But I'll still struggle with the what and with the why
As I keep moving with the motions
Ignoring all emotions
Lettin' life pass the most of me on by
As something else busies itself with keepin' time
Mmhmm
And time gave it all it gives
I can't repeat what I've already lived
But I'll still struggle with the what and with the why
As I keep moving with the motions
Ignoring all emotions
Lettin' life pass the most of me on by
As something else busies itself with keepin' time
