Idiot

When I was young I was an idiot
I knew it then but I get doing it
Like if I stopped I might have to admit
I think I get it now, I think I get it now

When I was sitting by the water tower
Like it was changing but I missed the part
Where life actually starts, life actually starts

And I was sure there was more than this
Hidden in all of the obviousness
I thought found it, man I swore I did
I was an idiot, I was an idiot

I think I get it now
It’s not supposed to all work out

When I was laying on the hood at night
I’d count the cars until the sunlight
Was trying hard but never got it right
I think I get it now, I think I get it now

When I was there I didn’t think much
I had my cares, but they were just such
Now it feels like I was out of touch
I think I get it now, I think I get it now
