the van

[Intro] Ba-ba-da, ba-ba-da Ba-ba-da, ba-ba-da-da Ba-ba-da, ba-ba-da Ba-ba-da, ba-ba-da-da [Chorus] Left the house years ago Here's the story of a kid in his shadow He just didn't wanna be lonely We started to fly, then she got sick Pulled up and down and spun out real quick He just didn't wanna be lonely [Verse 1] I pulled into a Wawa in Philly in 2000 Blue Magic coming from the speaker at the gas pump All Jersey kids, we never learn to pump gas So we sat there with the soundtrack Now I'm on the way, Wayne firehouse, glory days Parked the van, spun through vehicle Then those drive-thru years really went slow Wawa lights in the rear view was making it [Chorus] We parked the van and turned the fan[?] That's the story 'bout kids and their shadows Who just didn't wanna be lonely That's why I still sing Glory to the ones who know the van, oh, oh, oh Glory to the ones on the edge I just don't wanna be lonely, I just don't wanna be [Verse 2] I think some of us needed to chip away what we don't understand Slowly combing over it Slowly getting under it 'Cause there's no getting over it So we drove back from the west with our new religion One-way tickets in heart and in hand Said fuck anything in my way, this is forever now And just like that, everything changed (Cut off the lights) I just don't wanna be lonely, I just don't wanna be That's the thing about loving your shadow [Chorus] Years from then, I left the house Saw her standing on a rooftop She said, "I just don't wanna be lonely" (I just don't wanna be) I said, "I just don't wanna be lonely" (I just don't wanna be) She said, "I just don't wanna be lonely"
