This song is about moving out with your girlfriend and realizing time and time again that you try to make it work but it would be way better to go (Joe Strummer). You have too many things that you carry around with you that are not of grave importance: 12 boxes of books and two bookshelves, 8 boxes of vinyl, a ton of clothes. "You're like a girl, she says."
It's rough admitting it, but sometimes things don't work. This song is about those things that don't work. Compare and contrast it to your student debt and hers (theirs) as well. If yours is bigger RUN, just fucking with you, but run away real far and real fast. Haha.

lyrics
I wrote this song on your guitar in your apartment, surrounded by my possessions. And this paper has been blank, for as long as I can think about the means to which I'll write this life.
Because you say that you've been bored. You've been yearning for experience, saying you feel left out of these goings on... Not this again, not this again.
And I want to be 25 for as long as I can be 25. Experience? What is experience? They don't study this in college.
Your attention: may I have your attention? Because I mean this when I say this and I mean this when I say that I am being coy about this future. It's sisyphean, as if the great artisan intended for these wings to melt.
And I want to be 25 for as long as I can be 25. Experience? What is experience? They don't study that in college.
