Streets Ahead (If You Have to Ask, You're Streets Behind)

 

Streets Ahead (If You Have to Ask, You're Streets Behind)

(album: Retrofit - 2021)


I've never been the cool kid
Guess life just never went as planned
I should've been chasing girls and chasing highs
But instead I joined the band
And while I learned a lot of notes and scales
That just don't equate to record sales
Guess I should've followed more trends
(Or made famous friends)
Instead of wasting time with a guitar and a pen

No wonder no one will ever know my name
Just once I just want something to change

No, I just can't let this go
But the voice in my head says
Listen up, just give up and go home kid
Pack it up cause you're never gonna make it
No, I've never felt this low
But the knot in my chest says
Listen up, just give up and go home kid
Pack it up cause you're never gonna make it

I never aimed to strike it rich
I know six strings won't make my wallet thick
I just hoped if I wrote til my fingers, they broke
I'd stick out from the crowd, maybe feed one mouth
Thought I'd bide my time and just bite my tongue
Try to cut my teeth while they flap their gums
But I guess I overslept through my fifteen minutes of fame
The last fifteen years flushed down the drain

No wonder no one will ever know my name
Just once I just want something to change

No, I just can't let this go
But the voice in my head says
Listen up, just give up and go home kid
Pack it up cause you're never gonna make it
No, I've never felt this low
But the knot in my chest says
Listen up, just give up and go home kid
Pack it up cause you're never gonna make it

This scene it seems more like a herd
I'll never fit your inner circle
Guess my edges are too rough
Or maybe I'm not good enough
So follow suit and tie your tongue
Cause all of the best dreams die so young
I gave my blood, my sweat, my tears
Yet all I ever hear is

No, I just can't let this go
But my gut still screams
Listen up, just give up and go home kid
Pack it up cause you're never gonna make it
No, I've never felt this low
But the knot in my chest says
Listen up, just give up and go home kid
Pack it up cause you're never gonna make it

You're never, ever, ever gonna make it

klaar
