Empire Records

[Verse 1]

I was thinking about it before

Dreams of working in a run-down record store for more

Blank face between my Netflix queue

Wish I was in a place with more to lose

[Pre-Chorus]

Sleeping in too late from staying out 'till dawn

I'm over fucking Sundays

And what we think we've won

[Chorus]

I'll find my way to Empire Records

Liv is waiting there for me

Championship vinyl will always have me

And I'll play bass for Sonic Death Monkey

[Verse 2]

Fourteen-year old me had other plans than these

Food, sleep, TV, among top hobbies

I guess I'll keep on getting up

Maybe it won't rain today, fingers crossed

[Pre-Chorus]

Sleeping in too late from staying out 'till dawn

I'm over fucking Sundays

And what we think we've won

[Chorus]

I'll find my way to Empire Records

Liv is waiting there for me

Championship vinyl will always have me

And I'll play bass for Sonic Death Monkey

[Bridge]

Instead I'm poring over books (poring over books)

My eyes are tired (tired) my head hurts (my head hurts)

I guess I'll spend my days thinking of (thinking of)

Snarky remarks for grandpas to find their peace

[Chorus]

I'll find my way to Empire Records

Liv is waiting there for me

Championship vinyl will always have me

And I'll play bass for Sonic Death Monkey

I'll find my way to Empire Records

Liv is waiting there for me

Championship vinyl will always have me

And I'll play bass for Sonic Death Monkey
