Lay me down to the lumberyard

Build me up into something that you're proud of

I couldn't tell ya how we got this far

But I'm giving in cus I'm afraid that I'll amount to something

No

Cus that's what you wanted for me

Yeah imma be a star

I'll drive a new car

You'll have a new house

In a new part of a new town

If I knew how to get it, it wouldn't feel so far

You lay directing like a north star

Making money in a castle made of plywood

I wish you'd notice that I'm trying hard

I wish you knew that I can't get out of bed somedays

Long ride, daydream, eyes closed phosphine in my eyelids

For lawns, three drinks, two jobs, one dirty pill to scream in

Make plans, demands, watch it all fall to pieces

I can't put them together so why do I even try

Lay me down to the lumberyard

Build me up into something that you're proud of

I couldn't tell ya how we got this far

But I'm giving in cus I'm afraid that I'll amount to something

Slow down

Slow down

Constantly on the comedown

Butt dial

Come down

Should I take a flight?

Can I spend the night?

Would it be alright?

Would it be alright?

Sometimes I miss the middle school yard

Back in the days when I was trying to fit in

And all my cars were into guns and cars

What do they think of me now that I'm a misfit?

Lay me down to the lumberyard

Build me up into something that you're proud of

I couldn't tell ya how we got this far

But I'm giving in cus I'm afraid that I'll amount to something
