This is my Yankee Hotel Foxtrot song. It's also my Life's Been Good, which I remember hearing on the radio with my brother when we were kids and both of us losing it.
lyrics
Break of dawn so I call your number
Lots of 6s, I remember
Said I'm done with the silver spoons
Still in bed in the afternoon
So much freedom in loneliness
I'm reading Camus, yeah Myth of Sisyphus
Ain't got no grudge, ain't got no torch
I'm leaving shit on your mom's front porch
I don't have time for the stress I guess
I'm doing new things and I'm very depressed
What was that thing? With your job?
It's going great, you work a lot
My brother's calling cause he needs my keys
I call my mom cause I need money
I have my books, I have my pride
I sit at home and I look outside
I think I'm done with rotten moods
Laziness, fatty foods
Fill up the fridge with Diet Coke, go for a jog, have a smoke
I go online and change my pic
I'm a new man--hey, that was quick
Update my status with something cool
Look up my girlfriend from middle school
I'll meet some girl at my cafe
The coffee's bad, music's okay
Or maybe someone driving Lyft
Say I'm single, leave a tip
So much to do, so many opportunities
When I get paid I'll go get groceries
Might be in debt and never shave
Might be depressed and self-important
But it'll say over my grave that I was never boring
And I don't want you back
And I don't want you back
And I don't want you back
And I don't want you back
