Say you got to write what you know

but living out here in the middle of nowhere

there's not much to know but the four walls of your room

and the contents within

Try and fill the void with alcohol

but you wont find much solace in the bottom of a bottle

but you might find a good time trying



Pre-Chorus: And if you've lived in the burbs'

you would know where I've been

Boredom's an enemy against whom you cant win



Chorus: So you write it down on the side of a guitar case

and stay for free at your parents place

Just sit on the stairs and smell the rain coming in



Finished with school, now life gets cool

that's what your brother told you

from underneath a rusted out old Dodge

Out for a spin on a Tuesday night

Looking for fun or looking for a fight

It doesn't really matter who wins



Chorus



Sitting in a room with people who lost their youth

Smoke hangs heavy from a back alley booth

Take her home and its all the same

14 years, just my haircut changed



Repeat Chorus
