Ashtray Petting Zoo - Alma Mater Sweater Lyrics

You were sitting by the water
In a cigarette-burned sweater
From your alma mater
Rubbing your hands together
Placing them on your knees
I was stammering something stupid
And I said I didn't know
If I would even make it
You said i'd be alright but
IT'S NOT SO EASY

We didn't talk
(We just stared at the sunset awhile)
I had a thought
(But they never come out right)
What am I supposed to do?
(Where am supposed to go?)
Who can I still be without you?

Everybody's waiting for us, not thirty feet away
While we waste our time sighing at what remains of the day
Everybody's waiting for us
I WANNA TELL YOU SOMETHING
Everybody's waiting!
Nevermind, I forgot what I wanted to say

And I know it's so unfair of me to do
To try to make anything out of what I meant to you
But I'm starved for meaning in this f*cking nightmare
I just need more time to be young, dumb, and scared
