When the floorboards creek In the corner of my room I invite the monsters To come and sit with me If I can hear them They're indiscrete and careless So maybe we can find some common ground In taking steps ungracefully Ungracefully Acting like when things are going South A proverbial push North is all I need Ungracefully Ungraceful, I've worn out my excuse And an aimless kid isn't as cute At 17

I've been chasing the high Of finishing something for once in my whole life Sick and tired of the relapse Because I always give up (I always give up) And maybe it's time I went back to Vilnius To find where I should be Well, the streets, they bend along the river But I don't think they'll be as courteous to me Woah-oh-oh-oh How did I end up here With a head full of dreams And a piece of paper blank Woah-oh-oh-oh Will I ever amount to something Instead of giving up halfway (A waste a disappointment) What a shame Woah-oh-oh-oh How did I end up here With a head full of dreams And a piece of paper blank Woah-oh-oh-oh How did I end up here With a head full of dreams And a piece of paper blank Woah-oh-oh-oh Will I ever amount to something Instead of giving up halfway (A waste a disappointment) What a goddamn shame Woah-oh-oh-oh How the fuck did I end up here With a head full of dreams And a piece of paper And a piece of paper blank

They tore down the old movie theater on my street Built up a modern art museum Kept the sign as a memory You can make out the traces of broken in graffiti Around the edges A faded puzzle piece of the past is all it'll ever be And it's the old against the backdrop of the new Anywhere you'd look I guess my new's becoming old In the time that I've been away from home (Wherever that is) But I remember the cobblestone streets How they twist and turn along the river Cross paths and meet And any way you choose to go You'll always end up where you need to be When in Vilnius You'll find your place eventually We climbed up Three Cross Hill in the middle of the night It was hot and we were tired But our eyes lit up with the city lights And we saw Cathedral square And it'd never looked so bright I guess if God won't show some love Then the fluorescents might But I remember the cobblestone streets How they twist and turn along the river Cross paths and meet And any way you choose to go You'll always end up where you need to be When in Vilnius You'll find your place eventually And it's been hard I put those memories up on the shelf And it's been hard You don't answer calls anymore and I'm left talking to myself Just like I've been for the last 8 months I can't stay in this fucking rut But the dial tone won't let me go And just the thought of having something To remind me why I'm here Makes me want to go back home But I remember the cobblestone streets How they twist and turn along the river Cross paths and meet And any way you choose to go You'll always end up where you need to be When in Vilnius You'll find your place eventually You'll find your place eventually I hope I find my place eventually
