Later Gator! Lyrics

I’m just the third beer you had last night
A forgotten step along the way
From here to a better time
Like it could ever stay the same
I’m far too concerned with consistency
Eat the lotus and leave me behind
The apathy is yours
And the memories are now
Only mine

Fuck this
I would have thought by now
I wouldn’t be getting left out of
Everything we do
I wish
I would have learned by now
To stop seeking validation
From those don’t give a single shit about me
I’m still
A nearly limitless
Pool for your expectations
And I am damn near done

Even with all of us in the same room
It doesn’t feel the same anymore
I used to act the oldest in the group
But I haven’t aged a day in years
Foolishly convinced that to stay the same is the key
For friends to stay with me

I’m just the third beer you had last night
A forgotten step along the way
From here to a better time
Like it could ever stay the same
I know you’ll keep staying out on your island
And I’ll keep staying in on mine
Trying to find some joy in
(Even when I’m always there, I’m still)
Missing out
