I wrote this song when I was visiting my old friend Mike in Boston so that's what the lyrics are about.
The intro is the first thing I ever wrote with someone else accompanying me (he was playing bass). This song was my concerted effort to write a normal pop punk song...
Yeah the title is a Sonic reference B^)
lyrics
Sun rises and the day begins
Walking through these old memories of
College and love and
When I hoped for so much more but
it's been a few years since I did anything new here
and I guess it wasn't all that bad
I just gotta stop saying "sad"
I just gotta keep moving
I'm just thankful you like me
I grew up here but it's been a few years
how strange it feels when a place is so familiar but it's
More like a museum of the past
why do I still call it home?
And I guess I just placed so much hope on
the things I started here but
I just moved them somewhere else let's just
hope the soil takes and
We’ve been moving slowly for a while
Looking at our peers, we keep comparing
but Walking here in cambridge could be enough
But i know I’ll be flying back on Sunday
Sun rises and the day begins
Walking through these old memories of
College and love and
When I hoped for so much more but
it's been a few years since I did anything new here
And I guess I just placed so much hope on
the things I started here but
I just moved them somewhere else let's just
hope the soil takes and
You’ve been living here for a while
is it where you want to be or is it for you mom?
We don’t have to get anything done
for our lives to be worthwhile
We’ve been moving slowly for a while
I stayed up til 4am watching lets plays
and you’ve collected way too many things
I hope you’ll start a script someday soon
I haven’t lived here for a while
I’ve made so many friends I truly love
but every time I write a story
featuring best friends, it’s based on you
Heeeeeeey would you be there when i call
Would you be there in the morning
It’s been so very long
it’s been so very
I don't even know what's
gonna happen
to us lately I'm sorry for
Always talking loans but
being here reminds me of
when they weren't around
walking slowly the wind blows and
I feel more relaxed
