Crying In College
There's an ocean at my feet
Of words I said but didn't mean
Now I'll build a part of me
That you can't take away from me
Dusting off my dirty knees
I'll leave the ground so gracefully
Mind and heart in harmony
Risking everything
Fall behind
Tripping on another time
Back to where we knew no sin
We just jumped in
To everything
Go, go, go
Go away for the weekend
Don't know where I'm sleeping
Destination's just a careless leap away
Whoa oh oh oh (Hey hey)
Oh oh
Crying in college
Crying in college
Whoa oh oh oh
Oh oh
Crying in college
Crying in college
There's an ocean at my feet
Of words you're 'bout to get from me
You, yeah you
I watch you bleed for everything
Do you even eat?
I worry
Go, go, go
Go insane for that plus on the parchment
Teacher's your preacher
But someday you'll have to spread those wings
And fly
Whoa oh oh oh (My my)
Oh oh
Crying in college
Crying in college
Whoa oh oh oh
Oh oh
Crying in college
Crying in college
It only took a lifetime
Just to see the tears we cry
Through every corridor
Through every day I'm passing by
While everybody's reading
I will read between the lines
While everybody's writing
Write my life by my design
Yeah-eh-eh
Crying in college
Crying in college, yeah
Whoa oh oh oh
Oh oh
Crying in college
Crying in college, yeah
Whoa oh oh oh
Oh oh
Crying in college
Crying in college
There's an ocean at my feet
Of words that I can finally mean
Of words I said but didn't mean
Now I'll build a part of me
That you can't take away from me
Dusting off my dirty knees
I'll leave the ground so gracefully
Mind and heart in harmony
Risking everything
Fall behind
Tripping on another time
Back to where we knew no sin
We just jumped in
To everything
Go, go, go
Go away for the weekend
Don't know where I'm sleeping
Destination's just a careless leap away
Whoa oh oh oh (Hey hey)
Oh oh
Crying in college
Crying in college
Whoa oh oh oh
Oh oh
Crying in college
Crying in college
There's an ocean at my feet
Of words you're 'bout to get from me
You, yeah you
I watch you bleed for everything
Do you even eat?
I worry
Go, go, go
Go insane for that plus on the parchment
Teacher's your preacher
But someday you'll have to spread those wings
And fly
Whoa oh oh oh (My my)
Oh oh
Crying in college
Crying in college
Whoa oh oh oh
Oh oh
Crying in college
Crying in college
It only took a lifetime
Just to see the tears we cry
Through every corridor
Through every day I'm passing by
While everybody's reading
I will read between the lines
While everybody's writing
Write my life by my design
Yeah-eh-eh
Crying in college
Crying in college, yeah
Whoa oh oh oh
Oh oh
Crying in college
Crying in college, yeah
Whoa oh oh oh
Oh oh
Crying in college
Crying in college
There's an ocean at my feet
Of words that I can finally mean
