I Think I Might Change My Name To Tomorrow Lyrics - Singles - Backseat Goodbye

One, two, one, two, three 

Well, how about that, it's a matter of fact 

The life you've got is all you'll get 

And you do your best not to fuck it up too much 

Yeah, the thing about that is it's a hard new fact 

You smoke until your lungs turn black 

The surgeon general couldn't really give a shit less 

Seasons change and people stay the same 

Each year the whore's hike their skirts up a bit more 

We're all just numbers on a cartoon calendar page 

We listen to the music but it's the lyrics that we all ignore 

How about that, it's a matter of fact 

Retraced the words that you never said 

Now you're staring out at a useless blank canvas 

Yeah, the thing about that is you're the one who said 

I'm gonna change myself, become a better person 

No, I swear, I really mean it this time 

Years, they fade, my memory takes the blame 

Each night the girls spread their legs just to make more 

We're all just actors in an ad for the American dream 

We, the people just want peace but our countries just want to make war 

Everybody, everywhere has thought the same things you have 

So don't be afraid to fall in love with a stranger 

Everyone on every street is free to use their body as they please 

So don't be afraid to take some chances once in a while 

Here's the part where you start to think 

That you don't believe in anything 

Words are just words and you're just drunk 

Here's the part where you start to act 

Like you're better off without the things that you have 

Once they're gone you'll realize you fucked up again 

Seasons change and people stay the same 

Each year I find a new way to lie a bit more 

We're all gone just as fast as we came 

So I'm not counting on a new life 

No, no, no, tomorrow here I come 

Darling, you're lovely but you're awfully naive 

Did you think about when your future might leave ya? 

You can't buy the sky, yesterday's not for rent right now 

Go, find your own forever somewhere else 

Next year's accepting applications 

For one night stands and new years resolutions 

But don't forget what you got right here 

Yeah, my smile's sometimes fake, but me, I'm real 

Stop debating wars, politics and freedom 

We're all human last time I checked 

If you wanna kill a man for the color of his skin 

Then it's obvious to me that you're a goddamn idiot 

We're all free to think the things we want 

But you're too busy with your bullshit to even hear us talk 

So now here I stand, in the corner of my past and I don't wanna go 

'Cause it feels good to know what is and what was 

And the future's just a mirror that I lost for the fear of 

Death and a life without love 

And just when I thought the world had ended 

The sun broke through the pitch black sky 

In the most beautiful fucking glow I'd ever seen 

All the buildings started singing and my fear, it finally left me 

I shouted, "Goddamn, it feels good to be alive again"
