is it the sun?
head in the headlights
looking for a sign 
just a little longer now, it'll come
but it don't

so i sit in a little chair
wait for something else, but it don't
am i dumb?
and i sit in my little chair
dream of never getting up
is that wrong?

do you feel alone?
do i live a lie?
it's just not what i thought it'd be
and i'm not who i thought i'd be
oh it's not what i thought it'd be

two yellow lines, blinded by headlights
get by the shine and maybe then you'll know
but you won't
no you won't

headlights

if i’m honest hey

you don’t gotta

you don’t gotta tell me all that, i know
we could do it loud or keep it on the low
you just gotta tell me where to jump and i’ll go
yeah
you don’t gotta tell me all that, i know
we could do it loud or keep it on the low
you just gotta tell me where to jump and i’ll go

you’re what i’d assume is the deep of the ocean
a whirlpool a maelstrom, i hope that i fall in
you’re what i’d assume is an atom exploding
a building on fire, i know that i’ll crawl in

if i’m honest, hey
if you want to stay
if i’m honest, hey
if you want to stay

late night up with you baby
try to keep up with the cadence
if you wanna get it right just hold on and let me entertain it
you gon need the work i’m the maintenance
if you need to hurt i’m the pain then
you can tell me all night just hold on, no need to explain it

you can do it like i’m famous
some shit never changes
you can say you like it dangerous
i’mma say i like the same risk
now i’m speaking your language
come and pick you up olympic swimming with the lane switch
try to keep up with the cadence
you can leave whenever but you know who you came with

if i’m honest, hey
if you want to stay
if i’m honest, hey
if you want to stay
if i’m honest, hey
if you want to stay
if i’m honest, hey
if you want to stay

cadence

i want that all your nights
when you say "hold on close"
so i hold on
i'm wanting all your time
when you say "don't let go"
so i don't

i want you at your worst now
i want it like the others say

i want you at your worst now
i want it like the others say
you told me that i'm out of time
you wanna do it anyway?
i want you at your worst now
i want it like the others say
you told me that i'm out of time
you wanna

3:45 when we got back
365 we can get to it
clothes are the stairs, are you into it?
this a lot of talk i could put you through it
you can tell the difference when im runnin through it
any man in your phone go ahead and fucking lose it
trying to make me beg, way your body moving
trying to make me, huh

yeah
if you want to
if you need it
i don't want to talk about nothing no more
if you want to 
and you need it
just say what i want to hear
if you want to 
and you need it
i don't want to talk about nothing no more
if you want to
and you need it

want

oh i wanna hurt you bad even if it means no winning
who took you out your cloth, who put your ass on linen
oh i wanna say i meant it just so i can say i didn’t
i don’t wanna pull you back, i just wanna push you in it
and you cut me so damn deep, muscle fibres in it
oh i wanna hurt you bad even if it means no winning
oh i wanna say i meant it just so i can say i didn’t
i don’t wanna pull you back, i just wanna push you in it

and you know where this goes

took a long time to find out i was bleeding
in bed the light on your face from your phone
took a long time for my eyes to see it
somehow i was the last to know
color drain from your face when i read it
funny how fast you can learn how to mourn
better men would just move on and leave it
but better men i am not, i need to

know

was the gold not bright enough? diamonds never were clear enough?
did i hold you too close? guess you never adhered much
i couldn’t get a word, you said that i didn't hear much
too much baggage on me, i guess that i didn’t heal enough

was the gold not bright enough?
diamonds not clear enough?
do you care about anything? are you sure that you feel enough?
don’t look at the wall, are you sure that you’re here enough?
is that fair enough? guess we’ll see huh?

oh i wanna hurt you bad even if it means no winning
who took you out your cloth, who put your ass on linen
oh i wanna say i meant it just so i can say i didn’t
i don’t wanna pull you back, i just wanna push you in it
and you cut me so damn deep, muscle fibres in it
oh i wanna hurt you bad even if it means no winning
oh i wanna say i meant it just so i can say i didn’t
i don’t wanna pull you back, i just wanna push you in it

oh please, oh please, oh please
don’t go begging me
like what's the value on my time, but you can’t answer me?
i got a deadline to meet
how you so hurt at that?
maybe i’m looking too deep
maybe you sow what you reap
maybe you reap what you sow
maybe it’s worse if you know
you could just tell me to leave, but you know it’s harder alone
i know you’re used to the co
i learned dependence is weak
i wish i could let that one go, i can’t, but it’s like the leaves at my feet
in enough time it’ll grow
go on and look through the trees
go on and look through the smoke
maybe i’m looking too deep, but it go forever and more
go on and look through the trees
go on and look through the smoke
maybe i’m looking too deep, but it go forever and more
it go forever and more
it go forever and more
it go forever and more
it go forever and more

no winning

turn the other cheek or look the other way
i'd look at myself but i don't want to know
i don't want to scare you damn near every day
please put on your smile. please put on a show

some days i just feel like i'm faking it
maybe i'm dramatic, know you have it worse
some days i just snap, some i'm taking it
maybe it's imbalance, maybe its a curse

-

maybe i'm just scared of what i really am
some days i wish that i had nothing to lose
lately i've been pulling the whole picture back
just because i see it isn't an excuse

five years since i really lost my confidence 
middle of the sea and i'm dying of thirst
and i'll do it again with no consequence
maybe it's imbalance, maybe it's a curse

it take time
it take time
it take time

curse

calling, and driving
you come in, i like it
i’ll write it, and sing it for you
i’m calling, i’m driving

you say “i’m on the way home”
i won’t let your bed go cold
zipties on the camry doors
2001 drove it like it was stolen
like a fire was spreading i go in
now its a blur but you’re always in focus
you’ve never known what it’s like to feel wanted
i’ve never known but why do you think i’m

calling, and driving
you come in, i like it
i’ll write it, and sing it for you

2001

i can’t believe that i thought it’d go well
i know you want the idea not the real
so i give it to you and you can’t tell
if it isn’t me then i won’t feel

i remember waiting up for so long
i remember waiting up for so long
i remember waiting up for so long
i remember waiting up for so

i’ll take too long, say i’ll be there in a minute
don’t take too long, i am not what you’re wishing
i wash my hands but the bloods already set in
better take what you can, better take what your given
wish i wasn’t so indifferent
try to find a real connection
is it fucking or affection
same thing if you let it
wake up and forget it
pop pills and forget it
find balance and upset it
repeat then regret it

warm air thick in the summer rain i’m not that far from you
i hope i stick, hope i’m melted in i hope i’m into you
hope i’m still, hope i never blink until you make a move
hope i’m here, hope i’m anywhere that brings me back to you
same old shit, you can push it down but it’s still coming through
same old shit, i try to let it go but i can’t shake it loose
the same old shit, even when i win i still feel like i lose
same old shit, you can’t live the life without it coming due

i can’t believe that i thought it’d go well
i know you want the idea not the real
so i give it to you and you can’t tell
if it isn’t me then i won’t feel

i remember waiting up for so long
i remember waiting up for so long
i remember waiting up for so long
i remember waiting up for so

the idea

and i met you at a place that's gone now
can't believe never seen your face
when i heard you were held in the past
all that i could do was just wait
so i'd wait

look at all the years we've been
i say it's luck, you fate
look at all the time we've had
still hasn't even taken shape
hundred thousand years from now
still gonna feel the same

pick me up, blue luna
warm air hitting my face
watching as the sun goes down
no words by the lake
nosebleed seats i sit
walking across the stage
sign on the dotted line
place to place to place

and i met you at a place that's gone now
but it doesn't matter anyway
when i watched you as you walked through the trees
all that i could do was just wait
hands shake

look at all the years we've been
maybe it really was fate
look at the times we've had
still hasn't even taken shape
hundred thousand years from now
i'll still feel the same
still gonna feel the same
i'll still feel the same

and when i see her smile, i see you in her face
just wait

just wait

now i need to know
i can’t be your friend
i’ll go where you go
this won’t have to end

it’s a fire that grows won’t fade out
now i need to know
and i feel it in my face now
i can’t be your friend
if i took you to my place now
i’ll go where you go
would you stay or is it played out?
this won’t have to end

back to me, come back to me
you can cut that up but after me
it just hit my throat like guillotine
you pop that, but after me
come back to me, bring it to me
you can cut that up but after me
it just hit my throat like gasoline
back to me, back to

i'll get back to that another day
i can't think about another day
there's no time so i'm never late
same color but a different shade
never deal always walk away
i can't even look you in the face
and you wait on what i'm gonna say
i'll get back to that another day

you can't pick it up, play it where it lay
you can't pick it up, i can't cut a break
i got mouths to feed, i got bills to pay
maybe i'm too old and don't got shit to say no more
maybe you can tell me it's gonna be okay
do you think that it's gonna be okay?
now i've seen some shit so now i'm not the same
i can fix it all another day

back to me, come to me
you can cut that up but after me
it just hit my throat like gasoline
you can pop that shit but after me
come back to me, bring it to me
wonder if you'll think about it after me
maybe change is too big of an ask from me
maybe i just need another day

woods

back to me
back to me
back to me
wonder if you'll think about it after me
maybe change is too big of an ask from me
day after day after day i repeat

hold on, wrist automatic with the motion
you'll see it all your life but i know you'll never hold one
father figure type, put the phone down and go get it son
we can't take it light, lines hittin' with propulsion
put 'em in the pit, basket meet the lotion
we just pour the shit we do not care about proportion
we just throw the shit we do not care about where it's going
it don't even matter if i'm sinking or i'm floating

day after day after day i repeat
bet this shit look good but it ain't all what it seem
it just hit my throat like gasoline
bet this shit look good until it's right at your feet
day after day after day i repeat
day after day after day i repeat
maybe i just need another day

another day

it's too much to go down at once
so i'll eat it day by day
which deity should i blame?
it's been months and it won't fade

who you would've been now
would you run around the house?
would you know my name by now?

i can't even talk about it
and we've had our fights about you
which deity should i hate?
it's been a year and it won't fade

who you would've been now
would you run around the house?
would you know my name by now?

and if you hear this play, don't ask me to explain
we'll see you when we see you
it might be some time yet
but i'll see you when i see you
as good as it can get
we'll see you when we see you
it might be some time yet
but i'll see you when i see you

on some other side
in some other life
on some other side
in some other life

some time yet,
