LYRICS
i’m not tired 
i’m just wired
for late nights staying up 
talking till the sun gets stuck
back up in the sky
reminding me 
i’m still alive 

i’d been looking 
for hope in a song or
a run or a deep breath
a punch or a two step beat
that could carry me 
away from absurdity 

you’d been smoking lots
and living in your head
cause at least you’d know
where you last left it
i’m left waiting for you to wake up
but you’re still dreaming of your next cup

but it’s never quite enough
you pour it out
but nothing will come
from an ever flowing cup
when you’re too fucked 
to fill it back up

left you alone 
or i did my best
not to water a garden
that didn’t want to live
there were signs of life
but it wasn’t my land 
and i had my own to tend
and i’d forgotten it 

well i played it back
in my head
again and again
not to do any harm
just to try and understand 
couldn’t find a path
that made much sense
just some half finished thoughts
and a couple new plants

i went looking 
for myself 
by myself 
and it wasn’t close to easy
but it sure did help
and my heart kept 
keeping time 
wondering where you were
and what was on your mind

but it’s never quite enough
i can think it and write it 
but it’s hard speaking up
i don’t mind the sweet and wasted time
the taste of your lips
and your smirk when you lie

but I try
not to get in the way 
and I try
so hard 
I evaporate 

a year passes 
and some seeds take root
your garden is growing 
and mine’s growing too
and the works not always fun
but it’s better than staring 
at the weeds and the mud

we left behind some pain
to get to the magic thing
