song about missing your friends and getting stoned while listening to Bruce Springsteen.
lyrics
(intro/chorus)
if this is total bliss, i'd say it's perfect
and i would never change this dynamic, i just wish
that the distance wasn't quite so bitter
that these car rides could last forever
(verse 1)
i'm gonna tear it all the fuck back down
to a place where our broken pieces still fit together
beautiful, broken, too blacked out to see:
a 16-years-old kind of clarity (AY-YOOOOO)
(chorus)
if this is total bliss, i'd say it's perfect
and i would never change this dynamic, i just wish
that the distance wasn't quite so bitter
that these car rides could last forever
that i could find a way to reconcile my day-to-day
with "no retreat, no surrender"
(verse 2)
i'm gonna tear myself the fuck back down
to a place that i'm not repulsed at my own reflection
desperate but sure of what i wanna be:
a way-too-fucked-up kind of certainty
(chorus)
(bridge)
woah-oh (x one million)
(chorus)
(outro chorus)
