August Always

Watching all the out-of-towners
Drowning in a foot of water
Guess I'll swim 'em to the beach
Carrying a keg through Long Branch
Barely hold it up with both hands
Got a little help from the police

Spend your whole life hating where you are
'Til you realize love and hate share the same backyard, oh

I'm coming to you live from August always
I'm coming to you live from the place
Where time stands still, time stands still
I'm just gonna be who I've been always
And always will

I'm only full of fake wisdom
So if we ever have children
They won't get it from their dad
A child of a south of heaven
Yeah, we're only twenty-seven
You're always gonna be three years ahead

Spend your whole life hating where you're from
On a cold bike, racing home to the ones you love, oh

I'm coming to you live from August always
I'm coming to you live from the place
Where time stands still, time stands still
I'm just gonna be who I've been always
And always will (and always will, and always will, and always will)

Spend your whole life hating where you are
'Til you realize love and hate share the same backyard, oh

I'm coming to you live from August always
I'm coming to you live from the place
Where time stands still, time stands still
I'm just gonna be who I've been always
And always will (and always will, and always will)
And always will
