Generationals – Exterior-Street-Day lyrics

[Verse 1]
I saw your picture and I don’t know where it stops
You stand in the parking lot, kickin' up rocks
And I'm, I'm being a general shrew
Makin' a face, givin' in too

Your sister never had another normal year
Your little brother had a terrible fear
And I know you're never comin' back from the dead
I saw your friends at your building and they all said:

[Chorus]
Oh-ay-oh, oh ay-oh

We could all see it comin’ along
Nobody could get through...

[Verse 2]
And when they sent you back to Boston
Your best friend called, she said "Stephanie lost some"

But it, it was nothing compared to this, no...

I thought I caught 'em underestimating everything
I was exhausted from investigating every single modicum
Of bitterness and nothing less than levitating
Every day’s a dime a dozen, everyone’s a wolf in waiting

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
You know you make it so hard on yourself
You are the ghost of 18
I recognize it, 'cause I do the same thing
Isn’t that what everybody knows?

I don’t know anybody else that could give up so much so fast
You were still so when the dirty old drunks pass
Let it go, let it go...

[Outro]
You always want to know
If I hear where you go

But I don’t hear anything anymore...

Oh-ay-oh, oh ay-oh
Oh-ay-oh, oh ay-oh
Oh-ay-oh, oh-ay-oh
Oh-ay-oh, oh-ay-oh
[Verse 1]
I saw your picture and I don’t know where it stops
You stand in the parking lot, kickin' up rocks
And I'm, I'm being a general shrew
Makin' a face, givin' in too

Your sister never had another normal year
Your little brother had a terrible fear
And I know you're never comin' back from the dead
I saw your friends at your building and they all said:

[Chorus]
Oh-ay-oh, oh ay-oh

We could all see it comin’ along
Nobody could get through...

[Verse 2]
And when they sent you back to Boston
Your best friend called, she said "Stephanie lost some"

But it, it was nothing compared to this, no...

I thought I caught 'em underestimating everything
I was exhausted from investigating every single modicum
Of bitterness and nothing less than levitating
Every day’s a dime a dozen, everyone’s a wolf in waiting

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
You know you make it so hard on yourself
You are the ghost of 18
I recognize it, 'cause I do the same thing
Isn’t that what everybody knows?

I don’t know anybody else that could give up so much so fast
You were still so when the dirty old drunks pass
Let it go, let it go...

[Outro]
You always want to know
If I hear where you go

But I don’t hear anything anymore...

Oh-ay-oh, oh ay-oh
Oh-ay-oh, oh ay-oh
Oh-ay-oh, oh-ay-oh
Oh-ay-oh, oh-ay-oh

Oh-ay-oh, oh-ay-oh...
