I'm out again on my own
No wonder I'm awkward
The ratio of time spent all alone
Far outweighs the opposite
Quite a bit, I'll admit, quite below, average
Desperate, this is it
Don't think he'll be back again

The sandlot is empty
I'm the hero tonight
My face under fluorescent lights

American baseball
I'm still a fool, searching for you
It isn't a game at all
Nothin' to lose
You should've been there tonight

All the good men in the world
Gather in a liquor store parking lot
To mourn a boy and a girl
They drink to forget that they lost
If it's an apology then I don't advise
When you lie, look me in the fucking eyes
When you steal from me, man you rob me twice
Do you think it's funny, giving me advice

The sandlot is empty
I'm the hero tonight
My face under fluorescent lights

American baseball
I'm still a fool, searching for you
It isn't a game at all
Nothin' to lose
You should've been there tonight
American baseball
I'm still a fool, searching for you
It isn't a game at all
'Cause out on the bleachers
You should've been there tonight
