Lyrics
King of the Push-Away, by Kenny Weill
Since you wore your high school letter
Thought there must be someone better
The grass looks so much greener
Over there
Sticking your head around the corner
What about the one from California
Never focused on whose standing
Right here
Chorus:
King of the Push-Away (3x)
It’s the easiest thing to do
Unrealistic expectations
And a severe lack of patience
Any excuse you find to show
Their limitations
You’ll do this on your own schedule
Your family doesn’t want to meddle
You claim it’s ‘cause you refuse
To settle
Chorus:
King of the Push-Away (3x)
Yeah, you’re taking the long view
Guitar Solo / Bridge
So, you break another heart
Then set the timer back to start
And get ready to play the same
Old part
So now you question your decisions
Feel like you’ve been imprisoned
This ain’t the life that you
Envisioned
Chorus:
King of the Push-Away (3x)
Yet you keep on pushin through
Yeah you keep on pushin through
But the problem lies with you
