    The track off of The Wonder Years' latest album, 'Suburbia I've Given You All And Now I'm Nothing.'
    Lyrics:
    Two dollars twenty-seven cents January 17th, 2006. Here in a diner with my friends talking about how the year went. A few years later, I walk in. Patti knew my drink and she asked where the hell we've been. "You used to come here every night. It's not the same without you kids." I cut my hand on a piece of glass the time we found Dave half-dead in the parking lot and spent the rest of the night in the ER. I cut my hand on a piece of glass and I hope the scar lasts so I don't forget that there's always been a table for me there. Through coffee eyes and blank stares, our late night affairs, there's always been a table for me there. So you can try to forget or say it's the past. You know, you'll always end up right back where you left. I ended up here late at night on Thanksgiving the fall that Colleen left. This was a place to call home when it felt like the world didn't want us. I watched Mike slash Mon's tires. We laughed about it later. I watched friendships dissolve in the booth on the back wall. There's always been a table for me there, through all of the years.

    Was listening to this album with my best friends on a late night drive back home to CT from Cape Cod, Mass. It was our last hoorah before going off to college. This song came on and, man, it makes me so sad, but it makes me love my best friends that much more. I never want to lose them.

    I’ve graduated high school and college since this song has come out and I’ve always remembered the lyrics “you’ll always end up right back where you left” and it’s crazy how after moving three times and even to another state 700 miles away I’m right back in the same town I left.
