The Wonder Years – Everything I Own Fits in This Backpack

I woke up today
And put all my shit in boxes
It's 8 AM so I'm glad I wasn't out late
And I woke up today
Guess it's good I hadn't finished
Unpacking all of this in the first place

Suburbs have abandoned me
I've had the same best friend 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 neighbors 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 my shit and left home
It's alright to think I still belong to something I don't
'Cause I could 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
But where do we sleep tonight?
Damned if I know
We'll try to stay in the airport
Can't send us home and we got no place to go

We moved on again, so
I packed my shit and left home
It's alright to think I still belong to something I don't
'Cause I could see why you'd think so
'Cause I could 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
Don't say
The creaks in the floorboards are calling out to me
I'm lying 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 my shit and left home
It's alright to think I still belong to something I don't
'Cause I could see why you'd think so
We moved on again, so
I packed my shit and left home
It's alright to think I still belong to something I don't
'Cause I could 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
