Cardboard

Am I running or am I bored?
Constant motion's got me feeling kind of torn
White picket fences and polaroid lenses
And all the endless things inside your drawers
You'll be happy and I'll have cardboard

Another night spent on my own (another night spent on my own)
Whole new city's got me reaching for my phone
Another vacation, a new education
But never any markings on the walls
You'll be happy and I'll have cardboard

And so I pity myself
Cause I'm watching you alone on the balcony
And no I don't need your help
But tonight I'm caught up in our obscurities
All the birthdays I missed
Graduations I ditched so I could chase a dream
For what could have been
But I'm on standby

Seasons change just like my home
You give the roses to prick my finger on the thorns
Where have I gone, gone, gone
Cause I'll have cardboard

And so I pity myself
Cause I'm watching you alone on the balcony
And no I don't need your help
But tonight I'm caught up in our obscurities
All the birthdays I missed
Graduations I ditched so I could chase a dream
For what could have been
But I'm on standby

Tonight I'm gonna raise a glass to us
For how we both are never good enough
I hope some day we'll be the best of us
So best of luck

And so I pity myself
Cause I'm watching you alone on the balcony
And no I don't need your help
But tonight I'm caught up in our obscurities

All the birthdays I missed
Graduations I ditched so I could chase a dream
For what could have been
But I'm on standby
