lyrics

There's light on the wall where the curtain is tearing
And I'm just staring at the coffee in my hand
A friend of a friend is getting married
The postcard's buried and I can't seem to send it back
Hope they don't ask me why

I feel like I'm falling behind
And while I'm staying inside
You get ahead
I just want to live like I
I've still got plenty of time
Somebody say it's alright 'cause I don't know
Never learned to take it slow

My old roommate just turned thirty
He's been worried, spent the decade feeling late
Said, "Time don't wait for us"

I feel like I'm falling behind
And while I'm staying inside
You get ahead
I just want to live like I
I've still got plenty of time
Somebody say it's alright 'cause I don't know
Never learned to take it slow

Don't say it's just a crack in the pavement
When all your neighbors are famous
But your name's still on your shirt
And don't say it's just a matter of waiting
Another low monthly payment
And I could stay here till the first

But I feel like I'm falling behind
And while I'm staying inside
You get ahead
I just want to live like I
I've still got plenty of time
Somebody say it's alright 'cause I don't know
Never learned to take it slow
