I seem to always
Make a fool of myself
I spend my nights alone
Can't stop to face
The truth 'bout myself
Because everyone's always on the go
Yeah in two years
You'll be finding a lover
And in ten
I'll just be finding my feet
And I see wedding bands, sonograms
In your life and times
But all I see for me is grey
Was I really made
For that stable life though
Stable life though
I can't go on
With that stable life though
Stable life though
No matter how hard I try
I never picture it like
How you see your stable life
I have a hard time enjoying myself
I'm watching everyone smile around me
They go home with their boyfriends
They go home with their friends
And I'm left to my idle thoughts
Once again
And in five years
You'll move back to this city
Where I never felt like I was enough
Buy that house
With the brick patio three roads down
From where you and I grew up
Was I really made
For that stable life though
Stable life though
And I can't go on
With that stable life though
Stable life though
No matter how hard I try
I never picture it like
How you see your stable life
You're the girl next door
The one my parents adore
They secretly hoped we were more
But you're just the girl next door
