lyrics

Falling off my bike
made me feel like shit
about being selfish
and acting like a dick.
So when I got on my feet,
I felt road rash and it reminds me

I'm finding things out
about myself that I wouldn't
expect from anyone else.
I'm finding things out
about all my friends
that I wouldn't expect from
bitter ends.

Hit the ground running.
My feet are sore but
I'm still coming home.
We all grew up so fast,
too bad this town won't last.
It's amazing how selfish I can be.
To these people who make my life complete.

I'm finding things out
about myself that I wouldn't
expect from anyone else.
I'm finding things out
about all my friends
that I wouldn't expect from
bitter ends.

The blood on my kneecaps
will never amount
to the blood we spilt for this.
The times we hold dear.
And the people we hold near.

I'm finding things out
about myself that I wouldn't
expect from anyone else.
I'm finding things out
about all my friends
that I wouldn't expect from
bitter ends. (x3)

I hate this song because it
reminds me of the years
I lost in adolescence.
