I was so proud of the way you held yourself through your twenties
And poorer than I've ever been since before I knew you
I think that I'm outgrowing being in a band
For all the trouble and time I've spent
Singing about the midwest, shaking hands
The wasted hours driving

Could I do better?
I think I can
I know I have, and I will

Five years ago, we were drinking on your back porch
And talking about breaking up our band
