This is a song I wrote about Post-Graduation Depression, and trying to find the answer to what you're going to do with your life. The rush of college makes it seem like you have to have an answer right away. But sometimes you don't. Especially during the summer, when it's nice outside, and you just wanna reelaax. This is a song for those who are tired of trying to figure things out and just wanna take life as it comes, in a lean-back summer chair on the porch. ___________________________________________________________ If I could find the answer It'd be somewhere aloof on a rooftop. I don't know where I'm going But I was going way too fast too stop Now, I'm going downhill and my breaks are shot out If I should find the answer Inside of a Cracker Jack Box, I'd tilt my head back and laugh at myself For taking life way to seriously This is just one punch line in a standup routine I need to lay down to find my inner me Bridge All these questions and my second guessings are too much All these lessons come with stress and I'm confessing its enough I don't know what I'm doing I'm biting more than I'm chewing I can't spend the rest of my life Cubin' Thinkin' bout all the time I'm losing ..... I might just find the answer Inside a fortune cookie I won't even eat It'd give me platitudes an attitude to match Tell me about the opportunities I should catch But right now I think that I'ma just kick it And to the man I will continue to stick it Change my oil and get new brakes for my stick shift But then I'll put it in neutral and I'ma just coast If I could find the answer I might be doing something other than this But then again you know, this might be the answer Wait a minute I think it probably is
