letra de undergrad - timothy edward carpenter

[verse 1]
i changed my major again for the second time
you called it “careless behavior”
if only the fault were mine
in a makeshift motel room
folded seat back in parking lots
i suppose had they caught us
we’d get expelled without second thought

[verse 2]
but then they gave me a waiver
said to “sign on the dotted line”
professing a “savior”
who i hardly recognized
it seemed a little self-righteous
to write a contract in jesus’ name
that you penned in an office
i’d rather forfeit than play the game

[chorus]
it makes me sick inside to think how hard i’ve tried
to feel understood from the other side
i’d just turned eighteen when it dawned on me
“i don’t know what i know about anything”

[verse 3]
it felt like a funeral for someone i used to know
i guess the feeling was mutual?
i heard you cry on the telephone
i got high for the first time
but i don’t think i did it right
as a textbook perfectionist
won’t be long before my second try
[outro]
makes me sick inside to think how hard i’ve tried
to feel understood from the other side
i’d just turned eighteen when it dawned on me
“i don’t know what i know about anything”
i don’t know what i know about anything
i don’t know what i know
