Everything I Own Fits In This Backpack

The Wonder Years

I woke up today and put all my shit in boxes
It's 8am so I'm glad I wasn't out late
I woke up today
I guess it's good I hadn't finished unpacking all of this in the first place

The suburbs have abandoned me
I've had the same best friends since '93
I call he's not answering, no
I can't get comfortable on my own street
I'm not fond of south philly
Or how my neighbours love icp
I guess it's better than bancroft street
At least the fridge here works and the walls don't leak
At least I'm starting to see what's left for me
I'm starting to

We moved on again
So I packed all my shit and left home
It's all right to think I still belong to something I don't
'Casue I can see why you'd think so

Nothing made me feel further away
Than Left And Leaving through a blown car stereo
Nothing made me feel closer to home
Than Ready To Die through my headphones

So, we reached the coast
Where do we sleep tonight?
Damned if I know
We'll try to stay at the airport
"You can't send us home man, we've got no place to go"

We moved on again
So I packed all my shit and left home
It's all right to think I still belong to something I don't
'Cause I can see why you'd think so
'Cause I can see why you'd think so

Don't say it's up to me
Don't say it's up to me
Don't say it's up to me
Don't say it's up to me

The creeks in the floorboards are calling out to me
I'm laying here again
With my head on my backpack
Wrapped in my hoodie
This is how it is when

Don't say it's up to me
Don't say

We moved on again
So I packed all my shit and left home
It's all right to think I still belong to something I don't
'Cause I can see why you'd think so

We moved on again
So I packed all my shit and left home
It's all right to think I still belong to something I don't
'Cause I can see why you'd think so

I stacked Lonelier Than God next to You Get So Alone Sometimes
I know how this must look from the outside
It took almost thirteen months for me to be where I feel fine
I'm not as sad as I let myself believe sometimes
