I was never a quiet boy
I was never the type to leave the room
but I guess that comes with age
and I never imagined a world
where my days would be filled with nothing but time
and the squeaks of a chord
Now I'm just 22
but I feel like there might be a kind of an ending here
and I'm running out of second chances
I remember a week ago
the night at the place that knows me by my frown
and my sulking on the stairs
And all I was thinking then
as I stumbled along the walk home
Good god I'm having fun
