Lyrics:

oh
there were younger days
they were the only days
you felt alright

and so
I heard your father’s home
you never leave your home
when he was around

and I would clench my fist so fucking tightly
round that bottle of gin all day and night
we've been through this before
I’ve been through this before

and I was sure
I can’t be ready right now
I’m here without you
and I was sure
I can’t find where you are
I’m leaving without you

and oh
such a lonely state
I wanna feel something
at least sometimes
insides
bouncing side to side
we're dodging colder nights
but I think we’ll be alright

And I still clench my fist so fucking tightly
round this bottle of gin all day and night
we’ve been through this before
and I’ve been through this before

and I was sure
I can’t be ready right now
I’m here without you
and I was sure
I can’t find where you are
I’m leaving without you

Lyrics: 

it's hard to accept everyone will die someday 
nobody gets it right 
but at least we try some way 

you move me with the way you move 
anything, anything to impress you 
the way you do the things you do 
back and forth, knowing it doesn't matter 

there's so many times when I question myself 
I get tied up 
gettin' thrown around 
but you can't keep me down 
I get riled up 
you can spin me around 
I'm not glued to the ground 
sometimes down is up 

you move me with the way you move 
anything, anything to impress you 
the way you do the things you do 
back and forth, knowing it doesn't matter 

back and forth, knowing it doesn't matter 
back and forth, knowing it doesn't matter 

it doesn't matter 
it never matters 

you move me with the way you move 
anything, anything to impress you 
the way you do the things you do 
back and forth, knowing it doesn't matter

back and forth, knowing it doesn't matter 
back and forth, knowing it doesn't matter

Verse 1 (Adam / Quells)
 
Hello, walk in
What are you lookin’ for?
Some help?
Some love?
Maybe I have some more
Just come over to the shore
& let me show you
 
Love don’t come easy
But it can go quickly
Love don’t come easy
But it can go fast
 
CHORUS
 
You wrote (rode) me out
You shut me down
But I won’t you (w)in
And I won’t let you down
And I won’t forget you 
for any little thing cuz
You wrote me out 
 
Verse 2 (Jeff / Jemmi Hazeman)
 
Well, I've been down before
Above the canopy 
to the forest floor 
 
Well, been wrote out before 
eyes trippin' like leaves 
in a glorious storm 
 
Nothing is easy
Everyone deceives me 
Anything could eat me 
Time's flyin' 
Cuz it won't land
