Lumberyard

Lay me down to the lumberyard
Build me up into something that you're proud of
I couldn't tell ya how we got this far
But I'm giving in cus I'm afraid that I'll amount to something
No

Cus that's what you wanted for me
Yeah imma be a star
I'll drive a new car
You'll have a new house
In a new part of a new town
If I knew how to get it, it wouldn't feel so far

You lay directing like a north star
Making money in a castle made of plywood
I wish you'd notice that I'm trying hard
I wish you knew that I can't get out of bed somedays
Long ride, daydream, eyes closed phosphine in my eyelids
For lawns, three drinks, two jobs, one dirty pill to scream in
Make plans, demands, watch it all fall to pieces
I can't put them together so why do I even try

Lay me down to the lumberyard
Build me up into something that you're proud of
I couldn't tell ya how we got this far
But I'm giving in cus I'm afraid that I'll amount to something

Slow down
Slow down
Constantly on the comedown
Butt dial
Come down
Should I take a flight?
Can I spend the night?
Would it be alright?
Would it be alright?

Sometimes I miss the middle school yard
Back in the days when I was trying to fit in
And all my cars were into guns and cars
What do they think of me now that I'm a misfit?

Lay me down to the lumberyard
Build me up into something that you're proud of
I couldn't tell ya how we got this far
But I'm giving in cus I'm afraid that I'll amount to something
