Lyrics
Swallowing stones
Expressing a burden or hardship, facing difficulties or challenges.
On the way to ur home
Heading towards the destination of someone significant.
I waste time being wistful and slow
Feeling nostalgic and unhurried, possibly reflecting on the past.
Get so tired of singing ur songs
Growing weary of repeatedly singing songs associated with the person in mind.
Say ill move to the city
Expressing a desire to move to the city in the future.
When im finally grown
Plans to move to the city when maturity is reached.
But I been driving the long way home
Despite the plan, taking a longer route home, possibly avoiding confronting the reality.
Round the block just to finish that song
Driving around the block to complete a song, suggesting a creative or emotional process.
Deciduous forest aint growin my way
Expressing a feeling of stagnation, as a deciduous forest doesn't grow.
Say thingsll get better when I get away
Anticipating improvement or change when distanced from the current situation.
But I been watching the skyline and been getting home late
Observing the cityscape and returning home late, possibly absorbed in contemplation.
Counting ways that I luv u nd lights on the parkway
Counting ways of expressing love and noticing lights on the parkway, indicating fond memories.
Where was I hiding when
Reflecting on where one was during the process of growing up.
We all grew up
A shared experience of growing up with others.
Watching blinking lights changing
Recalling memories of lights changing on the edge of a bluff.
On the edge of some bluff
Being at a critical point or decision-making juncture.
I keep making mistakes
Acknowledging personal mistakes without gaining resilience.
Nd they're not makin me any tougher
Expressing a lack of personal growth from hardships.
And I wish everyone liked me but
Desiring approval and popularity from everyone.
Ud b more than enough
Recognizing that the approval of a specific person is more than sufficient.
Swallowing stones
Reiteration of the burden or difficulty, possibly intensifying.
On the way past ur home
Passing by the significant person's home, possibly indicating a continuous struggle.
I like who ur parents r voting for
Appreciating the political alignment or values of the significant person's family.
Theres a sign on ur lawn
Noticing a sign on the lawn, possibly symbolizing a message or indicator.
Im gunna move to the city
Reiterating the desire to move to the city when acknowledged as mature.
When they tell me that ive grown
Waiting for external validation before making a significant move.
We could waste our lives being wistful and slow
Considering the possibility of wasting time in a contemplative and slow manner.
Miss my prime while im choking on stones
Fearing the loss of prime years while struggling or facing difficulties.
