lyrics

Look he's going crazy
Guess it's time to live somewhere new
Drag along the cat the dog the kid the wife
And all his vices too

I stepped into the great unknown the meaninglessness so profound
Green perfect and doomed
I faded fast I lost my grasp on all the glory in my past
That made every day new
"I give up" is the only taboo

So look he's going crazy
Off to rehab or paradise
You know it'll be some grand gesture when a sigh would suffice

I burned away my backup plans I swore I'd never have
I'll find some other way
I'll never be the greatest but I'm still fuckin' great
Still got a few things to say...
You know I live in awe of you

He said learn to cut your losses
Well maybe I love to lose
That's not even true
But the girls showed up with cigarettes the skinny ones, Virginia Slims
There's a virgin in ya too
He's the kid who would have hated you

17 meet 31
He's a version of you,
Albeit a shitty one
31 meet 17
Kind of a cunt
But following his dreams
