Griffen's Song Lyrics

If this is real life

I miss my illusions

Ocean sounds on your back porch

Waitin' for you to come home each night

You say I'm too young

Laugh at my confusion

Summer break has been over now

For long enough

To mean our goodbyes

So I stay stoned

Missing California

Wish I could stay with you again

And not wake up

To thirty two and snow

Pretending to be grown

And used to it

And I say home

Is wherever each day feels new

I don't wanna make do

Workin' off these loans

Stuck in my head

Should be in your bed

Where I'm useful though

So I'm thick-headed well

You're pretty thick yourself

Forgetting how it felt

Don't make me sell you on

All the things that I know

That you knew were true

Come on you remember Sunday mornings

When we'd play Alice Phoebe Lou

With coffee warmin'

Try to pick a breakfast spot

Like it was so important

Just to skip it and stay in bed

Instead

So you could let me love you

Now I stay stoned

Missing California

Wish I could stay with you again

And not wake up

To thirty two and snow

Pretending to be grown

And used to it

And I say home

Is wherever each day feels new

I don't wanna make do

Payin' off these loans

Stuck in my head

Should be in your bed

Where I'm useful though

Well I can be the young one

Who doesn't understand

As usual

I know

And you can be the grown-up

Working on your plans

Till you get bored completely numb

So I stay stoned

Missing California

Wish I could stay with you again

And not wake up

To thirty two and snow

Pretending to be grown

And used to it

And I say home

Is wherever each day feels new

I don't wanna make do

Payin' off these loans

Stuck in my head

Should be in your bed

Where I'm useful though
