[Lyric] The Way Things Turn Out (I Wish I Could Skateboard)

I walk down Benevolent Street in Providence
My dad called me yesterday at work
And I cried in the closet

Prick my heart with a pin
I’m deflating and everything is pointless
What’s been laid out in front of me?

Sticker on the back of the truck is faded and scratched
White and blue. It says “I never leave Rhode Island.”
I wish that were true

Are you proud of me
For doing exactly
What’s been laid out in front of me?

I don’t know what to do
I’m giving in
The logical part of my brain
Doesn’t have anything else to say
And I’m crying
Thinking about
The way things turn out
