Ivy Dreams

I never hated the smell of cigarettes
They only take me back to when I was in better days
I’m not a smoker
Just smells like San Francisco
The aroma carries me like coffee does to Massachusetts
Nowadays it seems that I can’t hold a conversation
Can’t get past the walls of ‘What’s your name’, ‘How’re you doing’
I always fumble with a cringe, smile, and then quiet
Only friends I make are forced laughs, awkward silence
All the fun I used to have
And all the times I used to laugh
Did I trade it all away for a job
What a shame, what a shame that they leave me now
They don’t know where I’m at cause I’m not around
And I missed every party
Gearing my gaze to the ground
I’m all by myself
I'm all by myself
Nowadays it seems that I don’t have the time to waste
Going back and forth in notebook paper and due dates
I thought my senior year would give some more time to play
Left the football game alone hiding my face in shame
I just sold my soul for College Board’s gold chocolate ticket
Ain’t no factory tour, just waiting on ivy decisions
And if I don’t get in does that mean it’s all wasted time
At least my parents didn’t photoshop me rowing, right?
All the fun I used to have
And all the times I used to laugh
Did I trade it all away for a job
What a shame, what a shame that they leave me now
They don’t know where I’m at cause I’m not around
And I missed every party
Gearing my gaze to the ground
I’m all by myself
I'm all by myself
Love is waiting on me now
Waiting on me
If I took more chances, would they make memories
Love is waiting on me now
Waiting on me
If I took more chances, would they make memories
What a shame, what a shame that they leave me now
They don’t know where I’m at cause I’m not around
And I missed every party
Gearing my gaze to the ground
I’m all by myself
Yeah I'm all by myself
