Lima Heights by Terra Alive Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's no way that I'm going out to the bar with you tonight
Its just not very becoming of me today
And I'm so bugged and tired of people asking me "What have you been up to since high school?
I heard you went on tour. Did you come back famous?"
[Verse 2]
Fuck no, I didn't I guess you could say I made up for the money I lost in experience
(I still went out and tried it, didn't I?)
(I still went out and tried it, didn't I?)
I'm driving back to the suburbs with indifference to everyone who thinks they have an opinion
(You still stayed home and drowned yourself in wine)
(You still stayed home and drowned yourself in wine)
I think we're over but I still want a revenue
Yeah, I think we're over but I still want a revenue
I'm starting to believe less and less in celebrating without accomplishment
Maybe its so, maybe it's so
That you need me as much as I need you
That you need me as much as I need you
You'll find out slow, you'll find out slow
That you need me as much as I need you
That you need me as much as I need you
[Verse 3]
Are we real friends or am I an accessory?
A friend is a gift that you give yourself out to your enemies
Yeah, I see how it is
Must we justify our friendship through a pic in the mirror
Verify it by selfish strangers
My dignity is in major danger
Maybe it's a blessing in disguise that we don't see eye to eye anymore
I don't feel like touching that much anymore, I'd rather talk
And I don't feel like drinking that much anymore
I'd rather think about what's in store in my future
[Verse 4]
Shit, I should have probably gone to college
Instead of shows and racking up the mileage
I know those DIY venues and shows littered in PBRs was lots of fun
I had no intention of doing that for too long
I had to take it back to the 661
Last night in downtown Bakersfield at 3am I blew a .09 and spent the night in jail
It's not supposed to be like this
For god sakes I was an honorable student from Stockdale
It's not supposed to be like this
I pray they never find out what I send in the mail
It's not supposed to be like this
I hope I'm doing crazy shit I'd better never fail
[Outro]
Somehow I don't mind that I fucked up so all that just keeps going
Somehow I don't mind that I fucked up so all that just keeps going
There's no way that I'm going out to the bar with you tonight
Its just not very becoming of me today
And I'm so bugged and tired of people asking me "What have you been up to since high school?

Maybe its so, maybe it's so
That you need me as much as I need you
That you need me as much as I need you
You'll find out slow, you'll find out slow
That you need me as much as I need you
That you need me as much as I need you
