Why are all my friends in Ohio? I'm 6 hours away from everywhere I wish I could be I can't keep telling myself to be a better version of me And I know home is just an apartment Where I pay too much rent to barely survive But if I can get in a car with the people that matter Then maybe I'm meant to be alive Because it's been a South Loop summer And I can't think of literally any other Way for me to spend the time I've spent Here dying and barely paying my rent It's been a South Loop summer Bars I shouldn't be in and men I shouldn't sleep with and People I wish I knew better It's a South Loop summer Maybe my life will constantly be miserable Maybe I'll keep making things I'm proud of Maybe what I lack is the potential but I Know what I need and it's unconditional love Unconditional love Now the band is playing and I'm barely even out the door People keep on asking me to make More and more and more and more and more I'm gonna drop out of college soon Do everything my mom said I shouldn't do I'm gonna drop out of college soon Do everything you wouldn't want me to I'm gonna drop out of college soon Do everything my dad proved I shouldn't do I'm gonna drop out of college soon I'm gonna drop out of college soon Because it's been a South Loop summer And I can't think of literally any other Way for me to spend the time I've spent Here dying and barely paying my rent It's been a South Loop summer Bars I shouldn't be in and men I shouldn't sleep with and People I wish I knew better It's a South Loop summer A South Loop summer A South Loop summer
