[Verse 1]
My new fixation
Is my family dying
Everyday I’m afraid my mom, dad, brother or sis will go quiet
Eliza tells me
I gotta get up and out of bed
Ryan says it’s the only way up and out of my head
Well I quit booze
Cause I drank it like holy water
But I’m scared weed might be taking its place at the altar
And I’m the first judgy bitch to admit I've got some problems
But no therapist, rock star, god, drug or kiss has solved em
[Chorus]
Wake up kid
You’ve got everything
And you’re going somewhere
But you’re never here
[Verse 2]
My parents worked too hard
They gave me too much
My friends are too kind
Even when I disappear when I fuck up
And I’ve broken so many hearts
That I’ve started to think I’m too cool for falling in love
[Chorus]
Wake up kid
You’ve got everything
And you’re going somewhere
But you’re never here
[Bridge]
Maybe if I lived in a time where I learn to read maps
Had to write by hand
Stick it with a stamp, wait till I hear back
Wouldn't be running out of gas
Racing like a rat towards all I'm not
Maybe back then I’d been happy with all I got
[Chorus]
Wake up kid
You’ve got everything
And you’ve come too damn far
Not to be where you are
Not to be who you are
[Outro]
Not to be where you are
