Khaki Cuffs - Uncertainty

I didn't know what steps to take for when I graduated high school
The future just seems uncertain, the last 17 years behind the curtain
When will I get over this uncomfortability?
No amount of college towns or Twee Pop songs will be enough to help me
Will I choose a new city when I choose my new life
Or will I slip into the college town that makes me feel alright?
Will I feel alright?
Greener pastures they say wait up ahead
But will I ever reach them, or will I just end up dead?
When I come home for dinner will you be happy to see me?
For Thanksgiving next year will I stay in the city?
These steps I'm taking all seem so unplanned
Will I fall and lose it all or will I walk out unscathed?
The next four years are on the line
And I always said that I wanted to leave here but now I'm afraid again.
The friends I left behind
I never said goodbye the way I should have before our relationship died.
The town I'm leaving for good, brown leaves pave the streets
Grey skies, white breath, will I miss it, will it miss me?
Move away from bigotry, face the backlash
Now I'm trading in my sunburnt knees and cargo shorts for skinny jeans
Tonight I'll sleep in my khakis
Now I'm alone in my room
Or will I just end up dead?
