Ryan Terrigno - Saturday Morning Cartoons

I never thought that I would live this long
Now that I'm here I hope I live a little longer
I still don't know where I belong
I thought I would've figured that out by now

Whatever happened to those Saturday morning cartoons?
Sure don't make them like they used to
Dad was leaving bright and early for the airport
Mom was sipping coffee reading the news
The Statler Brothers, they were playing on the stereo
The world felt so big and full of promise
I didn't know what I wanted to be when I grew up
I really hope I'm gonna figure that out someday

I never thought that I would live this long
Now that I'm here I hope I live a little longer
I still don't know where I belong
I thought I would've figured that out by now

I feel so lucky to have found you, but
We built our lives on a fault line
And is it just me, or did that feeling
Of invincibility fade away with the sun
I feel like I could cry when I think about
My mom and dad in their prime
Cause when I look at them now, all I see
Are two people trying to figure their own shit out

I never thought that I would live this long
Now that I'm here I hope I live a little longer
Maybe I should move on
I thought I'd probably be a rock star by now

And I don't wanna waste my heartbeats
Wandering around aimlessly
Like a phantom wearing Vans and old blue jeans
Cause I've worn these masks for years
And I'm tired of pretending that I'm someone else
Don't wanna live my life forever like it's Halloween

I never thought that I would live this long
Now that I'm here I hope I live a little longer
I still don't know where I belong
I thought I would've figured that out by now
I'm sure that everything will work out fine
Cause as it goes nobody makes it out alive
If it's the last thing that I do
I'll be searching for those Saturday morning cartoons
