All we ever do is sit around and complain
About how 23 is just a waste of an age
Too young to settle, too old to stray
And no one listens to a damn thing you say
In the meantime we’ll chase down every kind of high
To try and escape the fear that we can’t seem to leave behind
In the meantime we’ll hold on to everything we can
Like paying rent on time and not killing all the house plants
On sunday nights we get an extra round
To tame the thoughts that linger when the sun goes down
To build up courage to confront the unknowns we’ve found
An attempt to barter with time, as stupid as it sounds
In the meantime we’ll feign love with people we don’t like
Cause if you’re never alone you never have to face what’s on your mind
In the meantime we’ll fail again and again and again
Constantly consoled by our vices and our friends
Running ‘round amsterdam
Coffeeshop joint in my hand
I watch the smoke kiss the sky
And revel in the wonder of being alive
On that roof in williamsburg
Laughed so hard my vision blurred
And you told me i was a star
Smiled to myself riding home in the car
You’ll never know how much that means
You barely remember telling me
Just goes to show the best days
Are the ones you almost throwaway
So in the meantime…
In the meantime we’ll let go of trying to understand
In the meantime we’ll change like all our best laid plans
In the meantime we’ll have a little fun while we can
In the meantime we’ll live
All we ever do is sit around and complain
