• People change like the tides in the ocean
  At least I think
  Or am I dead wrong
  Foot on the brake at the light, I don't notice
  I sit and wait
  Until the next song
  20 Hours
  In an old van
  Up the east coast
  Through the cold wind
  Drove 20 hours
  By the ocean
  Up the east coast
  What a road trip
  Now that interstate is paved with memories
  Of a past life I lived when I was 18
  And every winter I think back to what we used to be
  In that past life we lived at 18
  I reminisce about a past life
  Things change, I get it
  Cause nothing lasts, right
  Yeah
  And I was thinking bout her last night
  Scrolling through our memories
  Debating bout our last times
  For a minute
  We was cool
  Then we flew
  Just a lil too close to the sun
  Now we finished
  Now we through
  Guess we knew
  One day we would have to grow up
  20 Hours
  In an old ford
  Across the Midwest
  Thinking what for
  Drove 20 hours
  But it's hopeless
  Across the Midwest
  What a road trip
  But now that interstate is paved with memories
  Of a past life I lived when I was 18
  And every winter I think back to what we used to be
  In that past life we lived at 18 Writer/s: Damian Vinh Hien Hoffmanns, Dream D, Justin James Kegel, Parker Makani Bata

• Anon from Anon"Roadtrip" is actually one of my favorite songs, (2nd one is "Your New Boyfriend" by Wilbur Soot.) and not because of the sadness in the song, but actually because of how great Dream is at singing. And he's just really cool. And if dream ever sees this comment, then oh no. But, I mean, he is, though. He's just a really great person, and yes he might S C R E A M . I N . M Y . E A R S . But it's ok in the end. He's still one of my favorite Minecraft players. :). And Sappitus Nappitus is what I'm calling SapNap from now on. Just wanted to get it out there :).
