Why Georgia Single CD
Why Georgia
- I am driving up 85 in the
- Kind of morning that lasts all afternoon
- just stuck inside the gloom
- 4 more exits to my apartment but
- I am tempted to keep the car in drive
- And leave it all behind
- Cause I wonder sometimes
- About the outcome
- Of a still verdictless life
- Am I living it right?
- Am I living it right?
- Am I living it right?
- Why Georgia, why?
- I rent a room and I fill the spaces with
- Wood in places to make it feel like home
- But all I feel's alone
- It might be a quarter life crisis
- Or just the stirring in my soul
- Either way I wonder sometimes
- About the outcome
- Of a still verdictless life
- Am I living it right?
- Am I living it right?
- Am I living it right?
- Why Georgia, why?
- So what, so I've got a smile on
- But it's hiding the quiet superstitions in my head
- Don't believe me
- When I say I've got it down
- Everybody is just a stranger but
- That's the danger in going my own way
- I guess it's the price I have to pay
- Still "everything happens for a reason"
- Is no reason not to ask myself
- If I am living it right
- Am I living it right?
- Am I living it right?
- Why Georgia, why?
No Such Thing
- "Welcome to the real world", she said to me
- Condescendingly
- Take a seat
- Take your life
- Plot it out in black and white
- Well I never lived the dreams of the prom kings
- And the drama queens
- I'd like to think the best of me
- Is still hiding
- Up my sleeve
- They love to tell you
- Stay inside the lines
- But something's better
- On the other side
- I wanna run through the halls of my high school
- I wanna scream at the
- Top of my lungs
- I just found out there's no such thing as the real world
- Just a lie you've got to rise above
- So the good boys and girls take the so called right track
- Faded white hats
- Grabbing credits
- Maybe transfers
- They read all the books but they can't find the answers
- And all of our parents
- They're getting older
- I wonder if they've wished for anything better
- While in their memories
- Tiny tragedies
- They love to tell you
- Stay inside the lines
- But something's better
- On the other side
- I wanna run through the halls of my high school
- I wanna scream at the
- Top of my lungs
- I just found out there's no such thing as the real world
- Just a lie you got to rise above
- I am invincible
- As long as I'm alive
- I wanna run through the halls of my high school
- I wanna scream at the
- Top of my lungs
- I just found out there's no such thing as the real world
- Just a lie you've got to rise above
- I just can't wait til my 10 year reunion
- I'm gonna bust down the double doors
- And when I stand on these tables before you
- You will know what all this time was for
3x5
- I'm writing you to
- catch you up on places I've been
- You held this letter
- probably got excited, but there's nothing else inside it
- didn't have a camera by my side this time
- hopping I would see the world with both my eyes
- maybe I will tell you all about it when I'm
- in the mood to lose my way with words
- Today skies are painted colors of a cowboy's cliche'
- And strange how clouds that look like mountains in the sky
- are next to mountains anyway
- Didn't have a camera by my side this time
- Hoping I would see the world with both my eyes
- Maybe I will tell you all about it when I'm
- in the mood to lose my way
- but let me say
- You should have seen that sunrise with your own eyes
- it brought me back to life
- You'll be with me next time I go outside
- just no more 3x5's Guess you had to be there
- Guess you had to be with me Today I finally overcame
- tryin' to fit the world inside a picture frame
- Maybe I will tell you all about it when I'm in the mood to
- lose my way but let me say
- You should have seen that sunrise with your own eyes
- it brought me back to life
- You'll be with me next time I go outside
- no more 3x5's
- just no more 3x5's
