Proper Youth - Out to the City Lyrics

I'll probably never make it out to the city
Well I miss him like hell, and I wish that I could be there
In Michigan the lights are getting dark soon
Well the sky and my hair well they're both going grey
And I'm tired, I'm so tired
There are lines, well I checked last year and they weren't there

But we've been making it work
Buying blankets, hanging paintings
There are whole days now where I don't get low
And weeks are surely coming
Hold me slowly, we keep on trying, we keep on trying it on

And I'm tired of running out of money on new shirts and post office cardboard boxes
Eating more and eating less
Drinking breakfast and jumping jacks
Well my beers and my hair they're both gettin lighter
And I'm tired, I'm so tired
There's a catch in my step, man I checked last month and it wasn't there

But we've been building it up
Syncing our watches, not getting caught up, but getting close enough
And I, well I might not make it down
To the city but I hope that we'll get there soon
And the rest will work itself out

I'll probably never make it out to the city
Well I miss him like hell and I wish that I could be there
In Michigan the lights are getting dark soon
Well the sky and my hair, well they're both going grey
And I'm tired, I'm so tired
Lost my mind when I checked last week and you weren't there
