lyrics

I wanna go back to my old life
I'm gonna sit outside in sight
I promise I'll stay up at night
If I can go back to my old life

So long this year goes on we wait for it to end
And the circle of the news cycle forgot to rinse again
And it's harder than it seems to stay clear of everything
And the uncertainty of if and when has got me down
And I have no sense of the beginning or the end of this

The clocks have changed more than a few times
Alarm is set it goes off at nine
Remembering when you wake up
What day it is fill up the cup

Trapped in a house I love with all my favorite toys
And the Scrabble board we play upon I'm with my favorite boy
But it's harder than it seems to stay clear of everything
And the uncertainty of if and when has got me down
And I have no sense of the beginning or the end of this

'Cause the snow on the sidewalk slips me back into last year
When we were coming down from the unending Christmas cheer
It was harder than it seemed now it feels like everything
And the uncertainty of if and when has got me down
And I have no sense of the beginning or the end of this
