Belong

I used to get drunk just so I could go out and kiss girls on the lips The next day, I'd wake up and I'd look back and wonder Why it felt the way that it did This mysterious affliction I pushed down for years Just for it to come back in full swing Now I've moved far away But there's some things I'd say to myself Back when I was a kid Like, Sweet girl, someday you'll move to New York And you won't feel so different Sweet child, one day what you're scared to say Will have everybody listening It's okay to hold on for a couple more years 'Cause I'm right here, cheering you on With a full tank of gas, leave that place in the past And go find where you really belong Now you're sharing a room with a girl Who makes films about the places she's been And you're still seeing ghosts of the people you know Who think the way that you live is a sin You'll waste some of your time with a really nice guy Whose lips makes you feel more alone But the powers above don't care who you love And you'll figure that out as you go Yeah, you'll figure it out as you go Sweet girl, someday you'll move to New York And you won't feel so different Sweet child, one day what you're scared to say Will have everybody listening It's okay to hold on for a couple more years 'Cause I'm right here, cheering you on With a full tank of gas, leave that place in the past And go find where you really belong You belong You belong The midnights, the mondays, the panic, the heartbreak And lying awake with your doubt To the scars that heal over, the peace without closure And knowing that you made it out And someday you'll move to New York And you won't feel so different One day what you're scared to say Will have everybody listening It's okay to hold on a couple more years 'Cause I'm right here cheering you on With a full tank of gas, leave that place in the past And go find where you really belong You'll belong, you'll belong You'll belong, you'll belong
