Verse 1
=======
Sleepin' on a planner at the port authority
Waiting for my bus to come
Seven scotch and sodas at the office party
Now I don't remember where I'm from
I think I had a
Black wallet
In My
Back pocket
With a
Bus ticket
And a picture of my baby inside
And if I make it home alive I'm gonna...
Chorus
======
Get my shit together
'Cuz I can't live like this forever
Ya know I've come too far
And I don't wanna fail
I got a new computer and a
Bright future in sales, yeah yeah
Bright future in sales, yeah yeah
Verse 2

I gotta do some
Quick reading

But my

And I can't quite open my eyes
As long as I don't have to drive I'm gonna...
Bridge
======
I had a line on a brand-new account
But now I can't seem to find where I wrote that number down
I try to focus
I'm staring at the screen
Pretending like I know what all these little flashing lights mean
