Penelope Road - 2009 Lyrics

Dogwood trees that make me think about growing up so fast
They watch me swing along their branches to bad those days have passed
Years of wishing I was five steps further down the line
Now I wish it was 2009

Well keep it together, cause even a broken clock is right to times a day hey

Take a deep breath and let it all out
Your friends are graduating and you're dropping out
Life will pass you by if you don't put up a fight

Gotta have darkness or you cannot see the light
Don't you know, yeah
The way you're feeling so defeated
Pick yourself up off the ground

Cause I can see it
Just believe it
I know you'll come back around
Blink of an eye you're six foot two

And the guy in the mirror doesn't look like you
You had a girlfriend and she loved you too
Something nice about living brand new
The way you're feeling so defeated

Pick yourself up off the ground
Cause I can see it
Just believe it
I know you'll come back around

The way you're feeling so defeated
Pick yourself up off the ground
Cause I can see it
Just believe it

I know you'll come back around
The way you're feeling so defeated
Pick yourself up off the ground
Cause I can't see it

Just believe it
I know you'll come back around
The way you're feeling so defeated
The way you're feeling so defeated
