Hopeful//scared

I'm worried about my friends

'Cause they all feel stuck

In relationships to the towns where they grew up

Scared their drug-induced apathy won't last forever

I'm worried that it will

And Avery said that they're scared

'Cause everything's temporary

And I said that, "I'm glad

'Cause everything sucks eventually"

Well, I'm not being cynical

I've just seen everything get stale

If you don't circulate the air

♪

And my friend Kate had to move back in with her dad

'Cause this town ain't no place for a kid

Who's struggling to make rent

And I know we all make our own homes

But Temecula is no place for personal growth

But you already know that

Security is complacency

And comfort's the white flag

Please don't give up yet

♪

Well I'm not saying everyone should run away from home

But if you stay 'cause you feel there's nowhere to go

Well I think you should try

Pack your Jan-sport bag full of books and snacks

Like you're 12 years old

You know you're never coming back

Don't tell anyone why

If you're not feeling hopeful

If you're not feeling scared

What are you doing here?

It's the feeling you get when you've got a crush

Or at the edge of the cliff before you take the plunge

A little bit hopeful, a little bit scared

Hopeful, scared

Hopeful, scared
