lyrics

Billy's stuck, a teenager devoid of empathy
A character inside a book he lives regretfully
And his parents always told him "Don't fuck around in school, you might get left behind."
Like the kid who shit the pool

Where did all the time go wrong? It wasn't at all like the songs we heard when we were young, the chorus always sung like:

Everything is ok (You woke up today)
And everything is alright (You're running right on time)
Life is always a mess (But you're just like the rest)
You're gonna figure yourself out someday.

Billy blinked between the minute and the hour hand
And suddenly he's 23, a nomad without plans and singing:

Everything was ok (But you went broke today)
And everything was alright (Until you lost time)
Life is still just a mess (You should've followed the rest)
I'm gonna figure myself out someday.

I swear I'm doing ok (You got a job today)
I swear I'm doing alright (You've got some extra time)
Life is always a mess (You're not like the rest)
I'm gonna figure myself out someday.
