Why Georgia
I am driving up 85 in the
kind of morning that lasts all afternoon
I’m just stuck inside the gloom
Four more exits to my apartment but
I am tempted to keep the car in drive
and leave it all behind
Cause I wonder sometimes
about the outcome
of a still verdictless life
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Why, why Georgia, why?
I rent a room and I fill the spaces with
wood and places to make it feel like home
but all I feel is alone
It might be a quarter-life crisis
or just the stirring in my soul
either way
I wonder sometimes
about the outcome
of a still verdictless life
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Why, why Georgia, why?
So what so I’ve got a smile on
It’s hiding the quiet superstitions in my head
Don’t believe me
Don’t you dare believe me
when I say I’ve got it down
Everybody is just a stranger
but that’s the danger in going my own way
I guess it’s a price I have to pay
still ‘everything happens for a reason’
is no reason not to ask yourself if you are
living it right
Are you living it right?
Are you living it right?
Why, why Georgia, why?
