I Just Want To Sell Out My Funeral Lyrics - The Greatest Generation - The Wonder Years

Clear the apartment 

I plan on collapsing and I could have sworn I heard a car door slam 

I'm stuck at the corner of grinding teeth and stomach acid 

All alone under a soft rain and streetlamp 

I spent my life weighed down by a stone heart 

Drowning in irony and settling for anything 

Somewhere down the line all the wiring went faulty 

I'm scared shitless of failure and I'm staring out at where I wanna be 

I just want to sell out my funeral 

I just want to be enough for everyone 

I just want to sell out my funeral 

Know that I fought until the lights were gone

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

I'm walking through harbors and churchyards 

I felt the snow crack under my feet 

I'll stay thankful for mild winters, for every shot I got at anything 

I'll blame the way that I was brought up or the flaws that I was born with 

Or the mistakes that I've made 

They're all just fucking excuses 

So bury me in the memories of my friends and family 

I just need to know that they were proud of me 

I just want to sell out my funeral 

I just want to be enough for everyone 

I just want to sell out my funeral 

Know that I fought until the lights were gone 

Photos 

And oh, we all wanna know 

Where'd the American dream go? 

Did you give up and go home? 

Am I here alone? 

And oh, when the credits roll 

I'll watch as the screen glows 

The moments when I choked, all the fears that I've outgrown 

At least I hope so 

I was just happy to be a contender 

I was just aching for anything 

And I used to have such steady hands 

But now I can't keep them from shaking 

Oh I'm sorry I... 

I'm sorry I don't laugh at the right times 

Is this what it feels like with my wings clipped? 

I'm awkward and nervous 

I'm awkward and nervous 

I'm awkward and nervous 

I'm awkward and nervous 

I'm awkward and nervous 

But I was kind of hoping you'd stay 

I was kind of hoping you'd stay 

I was kind of hoping you'd stay 

I need you to stay 

Oh, god, could you stay? 

I need you to stay 

I need you to stay 

I need you 

If I'm in an airport and you're in a hospital bed 

Well then, what kind of man does that make me? 

If I'm in an airport and you're in a hospital bed 

Well then, what kind of man does that make me? 

If I'm in an airport, if I'm in an airport 

What kind of man does that make me? 

What kind of man does that make me? 

What kind of man does that make me? 

I know how it feels to be at war with a world that never loved me 

When all we had were hand me-downs 

(I know how it feels to be at war with a world that never loved me) 

All we had were hand me-downs 

(I know how it feels to be at war with a world that never loved me) 

All we had were hand me-downs 

All we had was good will 

Two blackbirds on a highway sign 

Are laughing at me here with my wings clipped 

I'm staring up at the sky 

But the bombs keep fucking falling 

There's no devil on my shoulder 

He's got a rocking chair on my front porch 

But I won't let him in 

No, I won't let him in 

Cause I'm sick of seeing ghosts 

And I know how it's all gonna end 

There's no triumph waiting 

There's no sunset to ride off in 

We all want to be great men 

And there's nothing romantic about it 

I just want to know that I did all I could with what I was given
