The End

I'm at the end
I didn't think I'd get here so soon
From backseat rides to airports
To now I'm driving you
I dropped you off with your bag so you didn't have to take a cab
And I drove off so confident I knew the way
Took a wrong turn the first chance I got
Had to drive the parkway for miles til I could get off
And find my way back home
Spent so long listening to songs never knowing what they say
Then I pulled in the driveway
And I couldn't stop the tears from falling

I am older but I'm not wiser
I take my shots and fall and fall again
I'm so ready to take off
So ready to face all my faults
But you're never really ready for the end
I'm at the end

We're in the car
It's 3am coming home from Nashville
And the freight train passed right through town
Never in your 19 years of living here has the train ever come
But we sat there at the stoplight til it was gone
And now I drive over the tracks
Not knowing if the train will ever come back

I am older but I'm not wiser
I take my shots and fall and fall again
I'm so ready to take off
So ready to face all my faults
But you're never really ready for the end
I'm at the end

But I can't shake the road trips
No I can't shake the evergreen in me
I can't shake the crying
The math homework and science fairs til 3
I can't shake the garden
No I can't shake the seeds that never grew
Until a week ago
And now we watch them bloom
I'm not ready
I'm not ready

I am older but I'm not wiser
I take my shots and fall and fall again
I'm so ready to take off
So ready to face all my faults
But you're never really ready for the end
I'm at the end
