1989 Lyrics by Less Than Jake

Borders & Boundaries (Reissue)

2000

[Verse 1]
Let me give you some insight into my insides
I haven't been this confused in such a long time
Can't believe I spent years just losing my mind
I can't believe that ten years have really gone by
It's been a long time

[Chorus]
Had a plan for every year I've been alive
A million more I've built up inside of me
There's a million more that I have bottled up
Had a plan for every year I've been alive
A million more I've built up inside of me
There's a million more that I have built up
That I've fucked up

[Verse 2]
Do you feel like the hard times
Are mountains you've climbed?
Lying awake, it still feels like it's '89
It's been a long time

[Chorus]
Had a plan for every year I've been alive
A million more I've built up inside of me
There's a million more that I have bottled up
Had a plan for every year I've been alive
A million more I've built up inside of me
There's a million more that I have bottled up
That I've fucked up

[Bridge]
Those mindless days, the plans I've made
The countless mistakes, all the times I've changed
Through the years I faced all that's kept me sane
Every single day

[Chorus]
Had a plan for every year I've been alive
A million more I've built up inside of me
There's a million more that I have bottled up
Had a plan for every year I've been alive
A million more I've built up inside of me
There's a million more that I have bottled up

[Outro]
Yeah, there's a million more that I have bottled up
Yeah, here's a million more that I have built up
Yeah, there's a million more that I have bottled up
Yeah, here's a million more that I have built up
