Still Their Kid Lyrics

October's takin' a walk with me

I needed it, I needed it

I'm leaving you when you're on your knees

I needed it, I needed it

My backpack's full and I'm up Main Street

I needed it, I needed it

A job I hate so I can party and eat

I needed it, I needed it

Second date on the edge of my seat

I realize I think he's kinda listenin' to me

They've played the same song three times in a row now

I'm thinkin bout our history on Huguenot Street

It's muddy fuckin' waters ahead of me

It's hard to believe anyone could settle down

They must, though, my parents did

I'm 20 and I'm still their kid

I'm 20 and I'm still their kid

Long walks bumping right into me

I'll take a hint, I'll take a hint

It's raining, my mind's changing, hold the door for me

Two weeks ago

I coulda never known

But in that there's something ephemeral

Never been here before

Acting appalled, opening doors

This one's open

This one's open

Second week of living chapter three

I know his worst fears are coming out of me

They've played the same song three times in a row, though

I'm thinkin bout the fact that you're now history

I'm my father's daughter but I'm much less sturdy

It's hard to believe that we have to let it go

We must, though, my parents did

And they survived, I can prove it

We must though

My parents did

I'm twenty and I'm still their kid
