about

This song is about the consequences of skateboarding and trying to impress your friends.

This song is for McKenzie. You're one of my best friends, here's a song, I took the name from a tweet you tweeted a while back.

lyrics

LYRICS:

I'm chasing cars and grinding on street curbs.
Collecting scars and looking back on the stupid stunts that I've been led to lead and blaming others for my actions.

I've spent the last month trying to settle down.
(But fuck it.)

Nothing is getting any better.
Everything has gotten so much worse.
I still remember teenage ignorance.
Stupidity trapped inside of myself.
But I am happy!

I keep doing things that hurt my knees.
I get my friends in shitty situations.
I don't clean the messes that I make.
My heart's been pounding from anticipation.

I am scared to try to settle down.

I wish I was in Paris.
(I wish I was at home!)
