I spend Mondays sitting on my arse
Wondering how I'm gonna pass
The classes that I take I'm not awake
I wonder when I'll be
Ready for another train trip
It's 34 degrees I might just lose it
I would rather be in bed
Sleeping through until it's ten
Mum I'm sorry I couldn't come home
I'm so caught up in everything that I
Forgot I was on my own
And my grandad only lives five blocks away
I haven't seen him since January because
I'm worried about my grades
These faces they leave traces
In these places that they go
Maybe I could learn a thing or two/too
Bad cause honestly
I'm leaving soon I'm on the move
I'll build my groove and let it soothe
A soul like mine who's missing out
On life at home I'm heading south
Mum I'm sorry I couldn't come home
I'm so caught up in everything that I
Forgot I was on my own
And my grandad only lives five blocks away
I haven't seen him since January because
I'm worried about my grades
And I wonder where I'll be in five years' time
Still holding on to some kind of dream something I call mine
Walking backwards is such a waste, such a waste of time
Always came back just to find, find my peace of mind
Mum I'm sorry I couldn't come home
I'm so caught up in everything that I
Forgot I was on my own
And my grandad only lives five blocks away
I haven't seen him since January because
I'm worried about my grades
