[Verse 1]

How do you know if you've done everything right?

Is it the love you have at hand

Or the cash you kiss at night?

How do you know if it was worth it in the end?

On anything but anyone you love?

Was this the life that you were dreaming of?

In the sake of some small game

In the sake of someone's name

Worry way too much about Mom

You're stayin' up too late at night and laughin' under kitchen lights

So hard, you start to cry
