Oh, the days grow slow, though

And the hallway with paneling
belongs somewhere, in the 90's
back when the gloves I wore had strings attached
and I had five pairs of neon wind pants
oh, the days grow slow though

I learned to make waffles in the hotel
down by the beach where the waves swell
there are many memories here
along a sandy shore
oh, the days grow slow though

Tsk tsk, don't wear dresses
don't wears socks
never wears shoes
got callouses down to the bone, though
write this way, used to
oh, the days grow slow though

Cookie cutter afternoons
everyday in and out
to the pool and back again
red jeep, back seat
friends, yeah
oh, the days grow slow though

Runaway, restless
Middle
School
oh, the days grow slow though

Color blocking those memories
out of my head
gym class, running fast
oh, the days grow slow though

Fast forward to now and you find...
here,
the present
snarling, bearish
rear view is clear
I love the now
oh, the days grow slow though
