No Permit Club

Lyrics

[Verse 1] First day Hard rain Blank stare on the wall Paper came back bent Like it knew my name One guy missed the fifty One guy took a fall One guy went home early Said “I can’t explain” [Pre-Chorus] Funny how the bad day picks a chair and stays Funny how it circles till it learns your face But when your number’s called and the hallway goes quiet You’re still standing here [Chorus] Welcome to the No Permit Club No permit? No problem Hold your head up You’re not the only one in the mud We’ve all had the floor drop out Welcome to the No Permit Club Same scars Same sun Same pickup truck If you blew it once You’re still enough No permit? No problem [Verse 2] One guy lost his ring in a week of blue One guy said “I’m done ” then he said “I’m not” One guy left his keys where the wrong hands move One guy learned the hard way what he’d got [Pre-Chorus] And the shame gets loud when it wants to be But a rough run isn’t all you’ll be Shake off the dust Breathe in Breathe out There’s a road back now [Chorus] Welcome to the No Permit Club No permit? No problem Hold your head up You’re not the only one in the mud We’ve all had the floor drop out Welcome to the No Permit Club Same scars Same sun Same pickup truck If you blew it once You’re still enough No permit? No problem [Bridge] Call it a bruise Call it a lesson Call it a night that won’t last forever One bad page One hard confession Still a hand on your shoulder saying “Get back together” [Final Chorus] Welcome to the No Permit Club No permit? No problem Hold your head up You’re not the only one in the mud We’ve all had the floor drop out Welcome to the No Permit Club Same scars Same sun Same pickup truck If you blew it once You’re still enough No permit? No problem
