Brakeless - The Wonder Years

The sign out my window is laughing in my face

'Cause it’s 7 in the morning and only 4 degrees

And there’s a city budget crisis, they’re closing all the libraries

There’s no money left for nothin'

So they’re only plowing Broad Street

Picking lunch over the subway

I got 4 bucks to my name

And it’s another morning bike ride

In the frigid freezing rain

I pull a second pair of gloves off

Tying bags around my feet

I’m not getting drenched but this week

I heard a song on the radio try to tell me I’m not alone

But I feel like it today

Swipe left inside your car door

Caught my friend wheeling the trolly tracks

I showed up to work all bloodied up

But still got all my teeth

And lately that’s what’s passing as lucky

At least for me

I heard a song on the radio try to tell me I’m not alone

But I feel like it today

And I heard a song on the radio

Said that that’s just the way it goes

And I think I’m gonna break

I keep thinking of ways to make it seem like it ends today

Pull the brake on my bike so if the bus runs the light

I’ve been telling myself that it can’t be that serious

But if I’m I guess it is

I heard a song on the radio try to tell me I’m not alone

And I heard a song on the radio

Said that that’s just the way it goes

And I think I’m gonna break
