Started with the Midwest, ended with a coffee shop

Waffle house, cigarettes, Joplin sent me off

Drinking at the bar down in Scotland, long lost loves

Snow covered hilltops, sleeping on the empty bus

It's been a good run, but I'm finally done

I've kind of had enough of this, trying hard to be someone

It doesn't make you happy, getting what you think you want

What's the point of coming up, dying on your way down

What's the point of coming up, dying on your way down

Started with the Midwest, ended with forget-me-nots

Wh е n the car-filled driveways fade to empty lots

Never meet your heroes, they drink and do drugs

But if you ever get sober, promise that you'll be someone

It's been a good run, but I'm finally done

I've kind of had enough of this, trying hard to be someone

It doesn't make you happy, getting what you think you want

What's the point of coming up, dying on your way down

What's the point of coming up, dying on your way down

What's the point of coming up
