Things are really weird right now
It seems all their dreams came true
Only they're home studying the day away
Or working hard for the FDA
Now you might wonder where that leaves me
I'm not complaining, just beginning to see
I never really learned just how to aspire
Mostly self-deprecate, detach and retire

I was 15 looking for God
Then I was 18 praying to lay
Now I'm 26 with a head full of hair
I'll be losing any day

[Chorus]
I pull the dirt in around me
I just pull the dirt all around
I've been too busy kicking up dust
I'm just sifting through it now
I pull the dirt in around me
I just pull the dirt all around
At least I'm choking on something real this time
At least I'm finally learning how

Things are really weird right now
I know I haven't called in weeks
Between the barely there days
And "You know I can't stays"
I just don't know what to say
The words right now are really hard to find
I'm running out of terms to use
My mind's either weary of the things I'll say
Or it's had enough of this self-abuse

[Chorus]

I was 15 looking for God
Then I was 18 praying to lay
Now I'm 26 with a head full of hair
I'll be losing any day
I was 15 looking for God
Then I was 18 praying to lay
Now I'm 26 with a head full of hair
I'll be losing any day

[Chorus]

Things are really weird right now
Things are really weird right now
Things are really weird right now
Things are really weird right now
Things are really weird right now
Things are really weird right now
