lyrics

Every time I’m here with you
I feel like there must be something better for me to do
so why do I still keep coming back to
the suburbs every year?
There must be something drawing me here
I know that it’s where I grew up
but does that even matter?

I’m not sick of going home, just
sick of all the summertime drama
What good does it do ya?
I’m fine living on my own, I’ve
got my inspiration
to keep me alive

It seems like I’m always being led on
by all of my friends, but everybody’s busy
Yeah, they got no time for me
And she is always there at the start
but every year she breaks my heart
all over again
Oh God, when will it end?

I’m not sick of going home, just
sick of all the summertime drama
What good does it do ya?
I’m fine living on my own, I’ve
got my inspiration
to keep me alive

I’ve lost hope in the future of this place
And I don’t know if I can stay here anymore

I’m not sick of going home, just
sick of all the summertime drama
What good does it do ya?
I’m fine living on my own, I’ve
got my inspiration
to keep me alive

I’m not sick of going home, just (I’ve lost hope)
sick of all the summertime drama (in the future)
What good does it do ya? (of this place)
I’m fine living on my own, I’ve (And I don’t know)
got my inspiration (if I can stay here)
to keep me alive (anymore)

You Won't Be My Anchor

The best thing about defunct punk-pop bands is that even though they are long gone; their ART lives on with Bandcamp. Such is the case with Canada's All Systems Go. They deserved better; but add them to the pile of hopeful" bands dashed upon the rocks on the business side of music. Prime example of Pop-Punk & classic Easycore style. Awesome sounds to get "speeding" tickets to! Turn it Up loud & Drive Fast! RIP ASG! Agent K
