Ryland Rose - Polaroids lyrics

Verse 1: You my '89 special Face ‘Swift' but your tee says ‘metal', look Ever since I made back page of the Herald, Girl I been on the run, I ain't ever quite settled Can you tell me when the Wolves started wearing all the sheep skins? Auto cruise, still figuring the stick shift Ain't no f**ing prodigy, I'm just a misfit Broke down palace, can you tell us what the fix is? Pre-Chorus: Let me send the cash in the mail And find the cheapest sports car you can drive I work a 9-5 retail But still I chose more than a suit and tie Too poor for this American Apparel Getting tied up just to watch it all unravel Ain't a thing on when there's 57 channels Got me saying next time that we travel Chorus: We can get to California Sun shining on the water I just hope you understand, that I gotta take a chance I'll be gone a little longer And this life's a roller coaster So every day we getting older I'm looking at this Polaroid, all I'm hearing is your voice Saying that I'm waiting for ya Verse 2: You ain't even scratched the surface Young Kirsten, suicide virgin Wait, thats the wrong way around but its perfect I'm learning, all my biggest fears are suburban Money come, money go, money worthless Splurging, thats the institute that they worship I'm swerving, on our joyride in something German Searching, for our own selves better version I'm on my magic ship like a Persian Dancing with the snakes, pull an ace out from her Birkin I'm backstage, sitting with a hit of bourbon Feeling run down like the rooms I rehearsed in Riding round the valley up in third gear A different place, you know I was never birthed here Everybody on the run from their worst fear Meanwhile, you're on speed dial for that first ring Pre-Chorus: Let me send the cash in the mail And find the cheapest sports car you can drive I work a 9-5 retail But still I chose more than a suit and tie Too poor for this American Apparel Getting tied up just to watch it all unravel Ain't a thing on when there's 57 channels Got me saying next time that we travel Chorus: We can get to California Sun shining on the water I just hope you understand, that I gotta take a chance I'll be gone a little longer And this life's a roller coaster So every day we getting older I'm looking at this Polaroid, all I'm hearing is your voice Saying that I'm waiting for ya Bridge: She got hand me down tees but they're full price Tangerine Dreams from the pool side I'm the furtherest thing from these cool guys Her Rose tints, staring at the palms in the moon light So meet me in the lobby of the hotel I ain't used to friends on my coat tails And I'm a fool that stayed hungry For a sign just to see what I'm becoming Chorus: We can get to California Sun shining on the water I just hope you understand, that I gotta take a chance I'll be gone a little longer And this life's a roller coaster So every day we getting older I'm looking at this Polaroid, all I'm hearing is your voice Saying that I'm waiting for ya
