Bird City
Wasn't hidden but I thought you couldn't see
Made a promise that I knew I couldn't keep
In forever is a distant luxury
I'm not there now and I know I'll never be
It's funny when you never gotta face it
New car pocket money dinner always makes it whole
It's not fair
It's not fair
I'm sick of it!
I ran out of options
The rich kids
They make their little jokes
I don't laugh
I don't laugh
It's the space age
But we've got no money
He knows not what he does
Just like a little boy
He don't care
He don't care!
I'vе tried it
I'll tell you I know right now it won't work
Don't fight it
It happens for a rеason you just need to
Trust
In your senses
When there's nowhere to call
Cause there'll be one day when your friends won't wanna take the fall
But it's so easy
When you're playing it off
You don't even look like you've been trying hard at all
Let's not talk around it
I see what you're doing
You're hiding in plain sight
Pretend you don't care
It's not fair
It's not fair!
I'm sick of it!
I've been here too often
Speak in hollow voices
Saying nothing at all
It's just air
It's just air
Is it bad intention
Or overcompensating
A textbook misguided youth
With a brand new toy
He won't share
He won't share
I'm useless
I don't know any way to pay my debt
Consider
You haven't done no good for anybody else
But yourself man
And that's no way to be
And in our worst moments we expect more out of you than me
But it's so easy
When you're playing it off
You won't even look like you've been trying hard at all
I don't care if you don't want to go back home
Never seen you any other time feel so bold
In another life we'd be stuck outside in the cold
But until that day, I'll be loving you on my own, darling
Now I hate to hear you talk like that when there's no one else around
Cause there's no comfort in romanticizing your own hell
But it's so easy when there's nowhere to be
And there ain't nobody who knows better now than you or me, oh
