lyrics

hey you with that green shirt on,
what was your name again?
i want to tell you some more lies
and see how you handle them.

but what would your family think?
and what would your friends say?
if they knew you believed in me
and what i said on that day.

you said you'd be here soon,
and five years later i'm still waiting.
pinching pennies for food,
and you said you'd take care of me.

now, what am i supposed to do
with all of these hidden day dreams?
i wish i never fell for
all those lies that you sold to me.

hey you with that sad face on,
what are you crying for?
is it cause the life you've been leading
has left you wanting more?

but what would your family say?
and what would those friends do?
if they found out about all those lies,
that i had been telling you?

never mind what doesn't matter in this old life.
i'm growing up and leaving my dreams behind.
because no past ambitions
could leave me more fortunate than i am right now.
as i sit here in my house.

with my family and friends and the love of my dreams,
i never could've envisioned this type of fulfilled happiness.
no, i'm not alone or an unsuccessful man.
i must have done something right to be blessed with this life.

so, i don't need all of that money or fame
that you've been trying to sell me since i was a child with a dream.

so you with that shirt and tie,
fuck you and your senseless lies.
'cause everyone on this earth will die
leaving everything behind.

Night Windows New Jersey

Where do I go from here? Everyone is getting older. I’m losing people both to death and life. I’ve written about the sadness that comes with the gift of life, but never like this. This time, I leaned as hard into the sadness as necessary in order to feel better.
