LYRICS:
Knew it would come to this
But how can I grapple with
An expiration date
On a relationship?

Running out of time
Stings like the cheap red wine
We bought at the corner store
To make our house a dance floor

But God, I’m so damn scared
I never asked for the rug to be pulled out from
Under me

How will I ever be
Ready, ready
Ready on time?
Ready, I’m not ready
For the rest of my life

We’ll be graduated soon
In our caps and gowns we’ll gather round
My shitty little living room
One foot already off the ground

Friends I might never see again
What will I do when
They’re not just around the bend?Why do good things have to end?

But God, I’m so damn scared
I never asked for the rug to be pulled out from
Under me

How will I ever be
Ready, ready
Ready on time?
Ready, I’m not ready
For the rest of my life

Nobody ever told me
Being brave would be so lonely

My parents getting older
But I’m still leaning on their shoulders

Locking our front door at night
So nobody can say goodbye

Thinking that’ll keep us locked into
A time warp of our own design

But the more tears that I cry
And the more time that I buy
The more I come to realize

I will never be
Ready, ready
Ready on time

Ready, I’m not ready
For the rest of time
