Dandelions rise and float like gravity defying snow
Blanket by the lake with cheap rosé
We only met a year ago
Cleaning out my summer clothes
My old roommate moved back home
Reading at the Parthenon
Driving to a funeral
I always said back then I'd run a marathon by 26
Ask when I want kids
I know there's good things looking forward but sometimes I wish
It was over and I was only looking back at it
Cried at your apartment pool
My sister's baby grew a tooth
Drinking up the bitter end
By June they'll be in Washington
Wedding presents for my friends
Detached nostalgia for my ex
Wonder if I'm out of songs
I think I'm fine to fail at this
I always said back then I'd run a marathon by 26
My aspirations waiting in hospice
I know there's good things looking forward
But sometimes I wish it was over
And I was only looking back at it
My mother says now that I live alone I have too much time to think about what I don't know
Running on empty in a Craigslist car and a full-time job and no childhood home
Falling in love was an American spirit
Quick to the light, took forever to feel it
Guess I don't really need to keep my high school yearbook
Forgot to go to Paris
Forgot to learn a language
Forgot to be a genius now I'm here, oh
I always said back then I'd run a marathon by 26
But honestly I'm already exhausted
I know there's good things looking forward
But sometimes I wish it was over It was over
It was over And I was only looking back at it
