lyrics

After graduating from college, 
I moved back home to my parent's house in Fenton

  (It would be the first of three more separate stints)  

My brother helped get me a part-time job
 peddling paint at Sherwin-Williams

  The idea was to stay for a year and save up 
and plan for our wedding  

All of our friends had already moved away 
or were still off at school  

So it felt like a ghost town 
or defeat  

I was not a model employee

  I was frequently late and felt my education made me overqualified 
and that the job was far beneath me

  I reeked of youth! I thought the world was owed me!  

Each morning, contractors would pour in like vultures on carrion 
and pick the store clean
