Alumni

Before you go just know I'll never stop
Trying to come back to you
Like you knew I would do
And everyone else would too
But I gotta go forward
Into the unknown and uncertainty

Because the planet is dying
And I got my eye on living and telling the truth
And if nothing is nothing then
Oh well, we can push through
But anxiety comes creeping and doesn't stop
For me

Is this the end or a beginning
If I stop time, will I stop spinning
If nostalgia doesn't kill
I guess me myself I will end it
Because
It's my alumni year

Flying, time is
And I won't question
The ones that warned me of this all in my past
And all I did was laugh
I regret it
And here I am stuck
In my head

Because the planet is nothing but beat up
Starved and suffering
And if nothing does work out
Then oh well that's a huge something
Anxiety has skyrocketed through the roof
And there's nothing I can do

Is this the end or a beginning
If I stop time, will I stop spinning
When will world finally wake up
And realize revolution due to come
Hell I'm talking too much
Because
It's my alumni year

So punch my gut, just beat me up for wanting time to come

In all its absurdity, I can barely breathe, I can barely see
But I can run and drive, so why should I care
I guess I'll survive
I guess is the best bet
The only certainty I have
I'll try to thrive

Is this the end or a beginning
If I stop time, will I stop spinning
Oh dear light at the end of the tunnel
Shine all on me, shine above and pull me in
Pull me in
It's my alumni year
