Never been halfway across the world, but I would go to prove I was alive. That summer we sat and talked about liking anyone else. You were there when I was 17 and I said that I didn't like living. You were there when I was 18 and I said that I was done trying. You were there when I was 19, when all I wanted to do was party. You were there when I turned 20 to talk some fucking sense into me.
I talk about hope like it's something I'll never know. If anyone found out what my songs were about, I wouldn't have anymore friends. That's what I deal with: my experience and anxiety telling me to quit. But there's something less defined saying if I stay alive I might find colors I've never seen before. Stars and sparrows are knocking at my back door.

Let Down

Breathe in, breathe out, remember your doubts. Got up, it hurt, but did it anyhow. Because I had to, the way adults do. It's just the way you said "get up get out of bed. You gotta make your phone calls." And "What the hell is taking so long? You gotta make it quick, man. Don't give up, stick to the plan." Got home, let down, put my ear to the ground. Broke off some plans that I had with my friends. Because I had to. "You never can do anything dude. Figure it out. Cut it out. Because we got a secret hand shake. The kind that best friends would make. And that's some pretty slick shit.
Sometime if you want to. You never can do anything dude.

Fine eyes and you've got style. You asked if I would like to talk about Jesus fucking Christ. Her lips didn't taste like church, but her hips felt like god. And I kept wondering what her pastor would think if he knew what we had done underneath the covers.
I'm exploring new lows.
Where was I that night when you sent that email invite. Did I forget or did I finally learn some god damned self respect.

They know you had it more than anybody we know and it was lost on me. You left me at your friend's house. I'm not comfortable, but getting better. You, everyone is staring at you when you come home baby when you come home.
You said I might die if I relate too heavily to these guys.
Boy wanna calm down and take the news? You've got all of us out here writing songs for you.
And I felt like hell from the first to the last day of her spell. You said I wasn't dead, I've got a lot more to offer and I believed it.
Boy wanna calm down and take the news? You've got all of us out here writing songs for you.

Can we talk about anything else? Because I don't see how bringing this up again is ever going to help. They bored holes in my back to force me to act on my most unfortunate needs. There are things that I've come to know. The most important of which is how everything runs on gold. And if I could let myself grow out, I'd have everything I ever dreamed about.
And that's enough for me. The potential for everything or nothing.

I want to be someone who you can count on, someone you want to dream about. I want to be someone who you can lean on, lean on when the lights go out. So totally independent, so you don't need anyone. With such loose roots, so you can relate to anyone. I don't know what's right and I won't figure it out. The only thing I care about is keeping this fire from going out.

Don't Worry

I don't relate to anyone at all. I don't feel anything. For fear of in pending future I became detached. For fear of everything I lacked. They said don't worry, it didn't work. Like a blister I broke just before I healed. Here we go again letting this feeling sink in.
