[00:00.33]I Just Want To Sell Out My Funeral - The Wonder Years
[00:04.20]
[00:18.24]Clear the apartment.
[00:21.67]I plan on collapsing and I could have sworn I heard a car door slam.
[00:29.55]I m stuck at the corner of grinding teeth and stomach acid,
[00:34.61]All alone under a soft rain and streetlamp.
[00:41.17]I spent my life weighed down by a stone heart,
[00:46.98]Drowning in irony and settling for anything.
[00:52.79]Somewhere down the line all the wiring went faulty.
[00:57.72]I m scared sh*tless of failure and I m staring out at where I wanna be.
[01:03.54]
[01:05.10]I just want to sell out my funeral.
[01:10.66]I just want to be enough for everyone.
[01:16.16]I just want to sell out my funeral.
[01:21.04]Know that I fought until the lights were gone.
[01:24.29]
[01:25.10]I m walking through harbors and churchyards.
[01:28.53]I felt the snow crack under my feet.
[01:30.60]I ll stay thankful for mild winters, for every shot I got at anything.
[01:36.35]I ll blame the way that I was brought up or the flaws that I was born with
[01:42.41]Or the mistakes that I ve made; they re all just f*cking excuses.
[01:49.51]So bury me in the memories of my friends and family.
[01:54.63]I just need to know that they were proud of me.
[01:58.32]
[02:01.04]I just want to sell out my funeral.
[02:06.48]I just want to be enough for everyone.
[02:12.23]I just want to sell out my funeral.
[02:17.17]Know that I fought until the lights were gone.
[02:20.42]
[02:22.04]Oh, we all wanna know.
[02:25.48]Where d the American dream go?
[02:28.61]Did you give up and go home?
[02:31.42]Am I here alone?
[02:33.23]Oh, when the credits roll,
[02:37.10]I ll watch as the screen glows;
[02:39.61]The moments when I choked, all the fears that I ve outgrown.
[02:49.11]At least I hope so.
[02:50.79]
[02:55.85]I was just happy to be a contender.
[03:01.23]I was just aching for anything.
[03:07.16]And I used to have such steady hands
[03:12.17]But now I can t keep em from shaking.
[03:16.61]
[03:20.54]Oh I m sorry I...
[03:26.54]I m sorry I don t laugh at the right times.
[03:29.86]
[03:32.05]Is this what it feels like with my wings clipped?
[03:36.93]I m awkward and nervous.
[03:41.24]I m awkward and nervous.
[03:45.56]I m awkward and nervous.
[03:53.85]I m awkward and nervous.
[04:02.80]
[04:03.37]But I was kind of hoping you d stay.
[04:07.18]I was kind of hoping you d stay.
[04:11.43]I was kind of hoping you d stay.
[04:16.55]I need you to stay.
[04:20.68]Oh, god, could you stay?
[04:24.99]I need you to stay.
[04:27.30]I need you to stay.
[04:29.18]I need you.
[04:30.49]
[04:31.18]If I m in an airport and you re in a hospital bed,
[04:35.93]Well then, what kind of man does that make me?
[04:41.96]If I m in an airport and you re in a hospital bed,
[04:45.53]Well then, what kind of man does that make me?
[04:48.28]If I m in an airport, if I m in an airport
[04:54.09]What kind of man does that make me?
[04:58.09]What kind of man does that make me?
[05:03.40]What kind of man does that make me?
[05:05.90]
[05:16.46]I know how it feels to be at war with a world that never loved me.
[05:23.96]know how it feels to be at war with a world that never loved
[05:27.59]All we had were hand me-downs.
[05:29.71]know how it feels to be at war with a world that never loved
[05:33.34]All we had was good will.
[05:35.77]
[05:36.34]Two blackbirds on a highway sign
[05:39.03]Are laughing at me here with my wings clipped.
[05:42.21]I m staring up at the sky
[05:44.40]But the bombs keep f*cking falling.
[05:47.77]There s no devil on my shoulder;
[05:50.02]He s got a rocking chair on my front porch
[05:53.15]But I won t let him in.
[05:55.34]No, I won t let him in.
[05:57.71]
[06:02.71]
[06:22.03] Cause I m sick of seeing ghosts
[06:26.30]And I know how it s all gonna end.
[06:29.93]There s no triumph waiting.
[06:33.49]There s no sunset to ride off in.
[06:38.32]We all want to be great men
[06:42.51]And there s nothing romantic about it.
[06:46.07]I just want to know that I did all I could with what I was given.
