Mynus_grey - Cracks in the Pavement

The first eighteen years of my life have been kinda shitty
'Least now I can abandon my friends and move into the city
With all the other stoners and hippies
And young girls who are way too naive and way too pretty
Spend time in hopeless relationships
Affectionate tokens that make me feel broken and guilty
I'm over this shit
I hope when I'm older I'll be more enlightened
Wake up from this coma I'm in
Atone for my sins
The gold on my lips that was left from the last time we kissed
This white wine at the right time in the wrong place left me with no defense
It was my weakness
It's been three months but it feels like just last weekend
So call my name when I'm needed and I'll come running
Running, running, running back home
Ohh, I'm just the grass growing through the cracks in the pavement
The sky spins around me
I close my eyes to find I wonder where the days went
I crack a joke and she cracks a smile it breaks my heart a small amount
Running, running, running, running back home
Nothing could ever replace this forfeit my passion and payment
I'm just the grass growing through the cracks in the pavement
Now, I think I know too little
I know that I think too much
These arguments I get caught in the middle of 'em
Somehow I'm always on the wrong side at all times, it's alright
'Cause I have more songs to scribble down, but the words get smudged
Somehow it's all so simple
Nothing is going to get in-between me and myself
At like twelve, I tell the best friend in my life to fuck off
'Cause I don't know what's good for me
It could just be that all this pent up anger made me impatient
Come and look and see the man who I've become, I hate him
He's so painfully flawed
Rich friends that I can't afford
I'm searching for a place to belong
So call my name when I'm needed and I'll come running
Running, running, running back home
Ohh, I'm just the grass growing through the cracks in the pavement
The sky spins around me
I close my eyes to find I wonder where the days went
She cracks a joke and I crack a smile it breaks my heart a small amount
Running, running, running, running back home
Nothing could ever replace this forfeit my passion and payment
I'm just the grass growing through the cracks in the pavement
