Track 7 on self-titled debut album

lyrics

Well, I’m 3 drinks in
I had kept my thoughts at bay
But it’s around New Year’s Day

Yeah, the phone rang loud
Was gonna lay my head
Picked up the call instead

I was overwhelmed
By what I heard then
And I just heard it again

Glad I got to know you
We had just become good friends in the fall
Look, you made the local news
Searching for life on other planets
But why ain’t there life here at home?

It was our freshman year
We were trying to find our way
Hanging out on the holiday

Just a few drinks in
You stumbled on the street
But the driver had you beat

Families overwhelmed
And I’m dressed in gray
I don’t know what to say

Glad I got to know you
We had just become good friends in the fall
Look, you made the local news
Searching for life on other planets
But why ain’t there life here at home?

This autograph
This autograph
Now it’s everything, yeah
This autograph
This autograph
Now it’s everything, yeah

Glad I got to know you
We had just become good friends in the fall
Look, you made the local news
Searching for life on other planets
But why?

Glad I got to know you
We had just become good friends in the fall
Look, you made the local news
Searching for life on other planets
But why ain’t there life here at home?
