Lyrics
Don't ever ask me why I'm sellin my house
Expressing reluctance or refusal to explain the decision to sell the house.
It's got a lot to do with protecting myself yeah
Indicating that the decision is driven by a need for self-protection.
This isn't how I pictured my adult life
Reflecting disappointment or surprise about the current state of adult life.
Whether it's wrong or right, this is my adult life
Acknowledging that the current situation, whether right or wrong, represents adulthood.
Ha
Repetition for emphasis or a moment of contemplation.

-I'm flyin down to Knoxville to make sure your alright
Expressing a commitment to checking on someone's well-being, possibly metaphorically.
From Manchester New Hampshire on another connecting flight
-I'm not a firefighter but god damn I'll put em out tonight
-This isn't how I pictured my adult, my adult
Repetition of the idea that the current state is not how the singer envisioned adult life.
Life, life
-Life, life
-Life, life
-Life, life
-Don't ever ask me why I'm movin around
Expressing a reluctance to explain the reason for moving around.
It's got a lot to do with protecting myself, yeah
Linking the decision to move with a need for self-protection.
This isn't how I pictured my adult life
Expressing disappointment or a sense of deviation from expectations about adult life.
Whether it's wrong or right, this is my adult life
Acknowledging that the current situation, whether right or wrong, is part of adult life.
