Lyrics 26 - Talltale

String up lights in my rental while the world falls apart
Fall asleep to the shows that I've already watched
Want security of feeling like it's all got a plot
When I know there's not

Heard you get out what you put in, so I never stop
And if it don't work out, wasn't doing enough
So now I can't sit still or alone with my thoughts
Know I'm lucky but I selfishly want more than I've got

I know in the end that it's all irrelevant
Everybody now's not getting fucked up for the hell of it
But to forget that this is all part of the American dream
Paying off debt that'll out-live me

I don't wanna wait, feels like all my life
Is building up to getting by
I don't wanna hear, "Things will be alright"
I'm tired as shit, 26, and out of timе

I don't just want what I want, no, I want it young
So every second's spеnt stressing on what I haven't done
I know, I know, I'm so sorry, yeah, I miss everyone
We'll catch up when I'm finally someone

I hope in the end, looking back I won't regret
That I never went out and got fucked up for the hell of it
Never forget that this is all part of the American dream
(Whoa) this dream's gonna die with me

I don't wanna wait, feels like all my life
Is building up to getting by
I don't wanna hear, "Things will be alright"
I'm tired as shit, 26, and out of time

Just to be honest, I'm not where I wanted to be
Yeah, honestly, I'm not quite where I wanted
Yeah, to be honest, I'm not where I wanted to be
Yeah, honestly, I'm not quite where I wanted

I'm not quite where I wanted

I don't wanna wait, feels like all my life
Is building up to getting by
I don't wanna hear, "Things will be alright"
I'm tired as shit, 26, and out of time
