"Parting" lyrics

"Parting"

Breakfast shift in the dish room
Sorting silverware
Through heavy tears
I missed a buzzer
The boss came back to scold me
Then he shifted gears
My family's in a U-Haul right now
Moving away from here
But I finally got some roots down
And I can't leave senior year

I thought it would be different
I know we all did

Dreaming together again
Never knowing when it's the last time

In several hefty garbage bags
I packed up my whole life
Loaded them with mom and I
For a rainy all day drive
Graduated yesterday
Said a hundred more goodbyes
You sweetly slept in the passenger seat
I gripped the wheel
Messed up inside

Dreaming together again
Never knowing when it's the last time
Never knowing when it's the last time
