Sometimes in life it seems like not a lot of what you planned is going right, but you look around and you are living in a place you like with people you like, and that's all you really need.
lyrics
When you feel like you won’t have a home until you’re 28 years old, there’s only one thing left to do.
And that’s to maintain all your hopes and dreams, leave bloody fingerprints at the scene of the crime.
There is no exit. What would you do? What would I do?
Maybe you’ll marry the next person that you meet and all your friends will be invited, get drunk and give good speeches while the limos wait in long dark lines like the tire marks they left behind.
Even though it all went wrong, there’s something to cling to:
I live here now
And when you sit inside a cube all day and talk to strangers, try to make enough to pay your rent
Those aforementioned hopes and dreams might seem a little bittersweet, but at least you’re getting paid to write down lyrics.
What would you do? What would I do?
Pull off the freeway and onto your street.
Drive past the houses of the families you never thought to meet.
They’re all the same, and even then the things were different: the street isn’t yours.
Even though it all went wrong, there’s something to cling to:
I live here now
When the car pulls up outside, be ready for your exit.
They’re coming to take you and make you realize you’re ready for this.
This is the end of the beginning; it’s time to grow up, kid.
Even though it all went wrong, there’s something to cling to:
I live here now
