goodbyes
I'm growing up quick
Better figure it out fast
The lights are all fading
How long does a high last?
It's all the same and my friends tried weed for the first time
They almost choked and they couldn't stop coughing the first time
My birthday is next week
And I'm scared of what I'll feel
I'm well aware of what in life is on the highlight reel
I hope that I'm further than 24 by the time I turn 25
My mom called and asked if I want to keep things from when I was five
I'm gonna start a family
And settle down somewhere
I don't need a house in the suburbs
Or a view on an island somewhere
Someday I wanna be old and gray and at peace somewhere down inside
Save yourself from the wrinkles but you can't smile without the smile lines
I can't even picture
How everything will change
Kids start having kids
And I wonder if life turned out the right way
Emotions are like shoestrings you gotta lace up when they come untied
I paid dad for the couch
I've always had trouble with goodbyes
Where did the better times go?
What if we're meant to die young?
Innocence is taken from all All life is letting life go
"Boy, you are really something...
All that talk of greatness...
Light coming off my sails...
What a joke"
Where did the better times go?
What if we're meant to die young?
Innocence is taken from all All life is letting life go
Where did the moments all go?
They make you who you are now
Memories are valuable
All life is letting life show
"I mean, at least, you taught me one thing
Stick to it, right?
Well, that's just what I'm gonna do"
"Oh, you still don't know how to pick your fights, do ya boy?"
Where did the better times go?
What if we're meant to die young?
Innocence is taken from all All life is letting life go
Where did the moments all go?
They make you who you are now
Memories are valuable
All life is letting life show
Better figure it out fast
The lights are all fading
How long does a high last?
It's all the same and my friends tried weed for the first time
They almost choked and they couldn't stop coughing the first time
My birthday is next week
And I'm scared of what I'll feel

Memories are valuable
All life is letting life show
