lyrics

I always got the best sleep
in the passenger's seat of your SUV
on highway 17, on I-40, or the 133
and you always preferred driving
when you were high
and I didn't mind
cuz at least you were a nice guy
back in 2012 when we were bored as hell
but it's not like that now

cuz in my dreams
I'm losing teeth
and as a result it seems
i'm losing sleep
I've got deep hatred for
my anxiety
stemming from all the time
I've wasted on you and me

"Easy/Lucky/Free" was my favorite song
when I was just 16 and thought
that you could do no wrong
but boy I was so wrong
now I'm 24 and god forbid I want more
than what you're giving to me
than what you buy at the store
I want nice biceps
and a good broad chest
I don't want no regrets

could it be that I am finally moving on?
and pretty soon I won't feel like
every choice I make is wrong
focusing on the things I want/ need to have
like a lover with brains
and a new cool butt to grab
