Slacker in the Rye letra

Pacing outside in my new clothes
Kicking bald tires with my steel toes
Rancho Bar's not open yet
So let's torch a couple heaters around the fire pit
Make that call when the summer ends
Burn that bridge when I come to it
Let's kick this night into high gear
Get another round for my boys here

You know, I haven't done much with a lot I've been given
Treat you like a crutch and a lover and a living
I'm still sleeping, and I say I'll be a minute
You're still talking, and I ask you if you're finished
And you're not, but I want
You to stop, you forgot
That you never had to choose
Between losing me and finally breaking through
I haven't done much, but I did it for you

Your new shit sounds kind of watered down
I cashed in before you bottomed out
Blacked out at Mickey's, haven't seen you since
But I heard you had my back with your new friends
Remember that night at Salt Lake?
A couple hundred screenagers rushing the stage
Felt like a rat in a lab maze
All I ever cared about was keeping you safe

You know, I haven't done much with a lot I've been given
Treat you like a crutch and a lover and a living
I'm still sleeping, and I say I'll be a minute
You're still talking, and I ask you if you're finished
And you're not, but I want
You to stop, you forgot
That you never had to choose
Between losing me and finally breaking through
I haven't done much, but I did it for you

You must be tired of the rise and grind
You never did know where to draw the line
Except when it came to you and me
We had a couple good years, though, didn't we?

You know, I haven't done much with a lot I've been given
Treat you like a crutch and a lover and a living
I'm still sleeping, and I say I'll be a minute
You're still talking, and I ask you if you're finished
And you're not, but I want
You to stop, you forgot
That you never had to choose
Between losing me and finally breaking through
I haven't done much, but I did it for you
