The Nest Lyrics by The American Indie

When Money Swallows Up Your Time

2017

[Verse 1]
Do the dishes and pick up your room
You better ask for permission
Even though you're leaving soon
[Verse 2]
21’s a dumb age
When 18’s enough to go to war
So when you leave for the weekend
You don’t have to lie about a glass of wine
[Chorus]
I remember the day you were born
It was snowing in Dallas, Texas
The whole world stopped and started again
Now the nest is empty
[Bridge]
Your room is bright with trophies
One thing that hasn’t changed
A house built with sound waves
So silent it'll drive you insane
[Verse 3]
Now I’m stuck on the freeway
Headed home to the east bay
What happened to young age
Those were the best days
[Chorus]
I remember the day you were born
It was snowing in Dallas, Texas
The whole world stopped and started again
Now the nest is empty
