lyrics

what's it like?
To wake each day,
and know your place.
Settle down,
That's not to say,
I won't walk away,
Wallow in,
A low-key life,
Well that sounds nice.
I'll admit
I guess I might
Be starry-eyed

Hit the lights
Cause I'm going home
Sleeping in
The bed I've outgrown
Immature
Or rational?
This is just
A stepping stone

What's the trick?
It's nothing new
But there's no how-to
I need a hint
I have no clue
What to do
I'm in between
I can't choose
Which way to lose
I'll get along
What's left to do
After twenty-two?

Hit the lights
Cause I'm going home
Sleeping in
The bed I've outgrown
Immature
Or rational?
This is just
A stepping stone

Hit the lights
Cause I'm going home
Sleeping in
The bed I've outgrown
