30- 30- 30

Spend most of your youth trying to spend every moment out

Now I'm 30 and trying to spend every moment in

What's the difference?

Absolutely nothing besides the difference in realities.

When home life is unbearable you run away

You grow up and ran away so far- found a space to call home.

Now you can just you can just hide from your problems by running home.

Run, run, run home baby before they catch up to snatch you up.

Are we going to play hide and seek forever?

Guess you'll have to find me to find out.
