This is the question of how you will break
How much it will cost you
How much it may
To relive all the good times
And to replace another night of normalcy
This is your life
And it's running out minute by minute
As the sun goes down
You've got a dream with a little bit more self-doubt
Another chance you'll never take
You spent your best five years playing dead tired
Trying to get ahead
All you got was a little bit older
And a big TV
Don't you wish you could take it back?
Say so long to all your dreams, hello, dependency
'Cause there's never a better time to put this off
And have all the things you can never run away from
you can never run away from
This is the good life, or so you think
It's the next big promotion, the next big thing
Until you're worn out and wishing you could replace
Another night of normalcy
The girl who you met when you went to the bar
Is a couple years younger
But it's cool so far, she's got some new tattoos
And you've got scars a life of complacency
She's stayed the past two nights and
Made you feel real again
She won't solve anything
Like thinking of the problems you wish you didn't have
Say so long to all your dreams, hello, dependency
'Cause there's never a better time to put this off
And have all the things you can never run away from
you can never run away from
This is where you make your peace with
Bigger-than-life fathers and
High school neighborhood best friends
Would you rather live your life
As someone asking questions
Or someone questioning the answers?
This is your house
You can burn it down
If you want to
This is your house
You can burn it down
If you want to
How much it will cost you
How much it may
To relive all the good times
And to replace another night of normalcy
