lyrics

We showed up at 8 a.m.
Even though we didn't need to
No one else showed up 'til two

And that was just some more of our friends
We sat and watched as the bands loaded in
Ship Captain Crew, Of Glaciers, She's Alive, and Real Friends

On behalf of the Midwest welcome home
You gave this scene inspiration and hope
(Out there on the road)
From state to state and stage to stage
You're living the dream
You're everything we ever want to be

Dan said they're coming back in October
But Bryan said it'll be sooner
And it's only June 1st
But it feels like it's gonna be a hell of a summer
I told Kyle the scene looks up to them
And that we hope that they make it big
He took a drag off his cigarette
And said that everybody's gonna forget about them

But I'm still singing Home For Fall every night in my bedroom
And there's still at least one track on every mix disc we play in the van

On behalf of the Midwest welcome home
You gave this scene inspiration and hope
(Out there on the road)
From state to state and stage to stage
You're living the dream
You're everything we ever want to be

I'm so damn nervous about this EP
What songs to pick, what words to use, and all of the money

I don't wanna grow up
Go to college
Or a real job
I just wanna be like all the bands I go to see

And I'm not sorry, to anyone who ever wanted more from me
I will not apologize for being exactly who and what I want to be
No, I'm not sorry for taking my potential and putting it towards my dreams
Mom and Dad, this is what I'm doing with my life I hope you can still be proud of me
