There’s no one who is quite this independent
No one else has saved their breath like her
No one else can open up their mouth at any time
And be someone who just says things if they’re smart
No one else is headed for the same level of fresh new start in college in the fall
Nothing else seems quite as far away
And a year is very many lonely days
Even if subtracting all the holidays
She is counting all the safe if sorry ways
To waste away a lunch break
There’s no one in these hallways who will miss me
No one here will wonder where I’m gone
If I leave tomorrow all that changes is the roll call
But roll call, I love you, I will stay
Noe one else is headed for the same level of crash and burn in college in the fall
Thankfully it’s quite a bit away
And a year can never have too many days
And today she’s counting all the holidays
She’s lost count of the safe if sorry ways
To waste a way a lunch break
There’s no one who is quite this independent
No one is particularly strong
If we eat together then the lunch tastes twice as good
Someone had to tell you while you’re young
Everyone is hoping for a fairy-taley fresh new start in college in the fall
Everyone is scared of going away
And a year is very many lonely days
Even if we hang out in the weekend
See if you can figure out a less than sorry way
To waste away a lunch break.
