about

just going after a varsity lax bro

lyrics

All my friends are tired and wired
And I just took a nap but it was stopped by a fire drill
If I played a varsity sport do you think they’d ignore
The fact that I’m not the prettiest girl on the dance floor

I’m in a grapefruit sky
And living’s a promise that we make if we’re qualified
I’ll do an exorcism of my ex if you’ll
Be on my team for the rest of this small life

Send me your location on a Saturday night
If it’s the spring maybe there will be some light
If I show you my favorite song will you sing along
Or will it make me think of everything I did wrong

Let’s pretend I’m enrolled in calculus two
If I’m in STEM does that mean much to you
Does it benefit my score or my societal class
If I tell you that my heart can break like glass

Should I be proud of what I’ve done
And who I’ve become
Around you
Does it give you peace of mind
Knowing that I’m blind
But it’s all true

I’m in a grapefruit sky
And living’s a promise that we make if we’re qualified
I’ll do an exorcism of my ex if you’ll
Be on my team for the rest of this small life
I had a dream last night
That college home teams never lost the fight
