the van

Original

Left the house years ago. Here's the story of a kid and his shadow.

He just didn't wanna be lonely.

He started to fly and she got sick. Pulled up and down and spun out real quick.

He just didn't wanna be lonely.

Pulled into a Wawa in Philly in 2000.

Blue Magic coming from the speaker at the gas pump.

All Jersey kids, we never learned to pump gas, so we sat there with the soundtrack.

Met them all in the Wayne Firehouse, glory days.

Packed the van and spun through being cool. Man, those drive-through years really went slow.

Wawa lights in the rearview was making it. We packed the van, our time was then.

That's the story about kids and their shadows.

We 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 A.

I just don't wanna be lonely.

I just don't wanna be.

Think some of us need to chip away at what we don't understand.

Slowly coming over it.

Slowly getting under it.

'Cause there's no getting over it. So we drove back from the west with our new religion there.

One-way tickets in heart and in hand. Said, "Fuck anything in our way, this is forever now. "

And then just like that, everything changed. Cut off the lights.

I just don't wanna be lonely. That's the thing about loving your shadow.

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. "
