I think I may have just lost my mind but I swear I'm fine you say 'you took your time' Oh but I swear i'm fine I've been writing little letters to you You don't know where I'm coming from I've been writing little letters to you You don't know where I'm coming from I'm feeling lazy I'm feeling crazy but I'm fine with that keepin it simple learning that walk gotta learn that talk and to treat myself better and I hurt myself for the very first time can you guess what was on my mind it was my old friend time why does it matter if he's going to come for me why does it matter who is gonna comfort me? I'm feeling lazy I'm feeling crazy but I'm fine with that keepin it simple learning that walk gotta learn that talk and to treat myself better

I think that I want to hold your hand I don't understand this When did I want to become your man? This wasn't a part of my plan Now you keep me up at night you keep me up at night keep me up at night I can see it now Falling deep Thought that I didn't want to Be confused or get those feelings But now I think I want to Be confused and get that feeling I'll take a chance on you I don't know if it's right or wrong I'll take a chance on your baby i don't want to know Maybe I got it wrong I don't need to understand

One in my head One in my heart What do you say baby? We get a fresh start? Maybe now, maybe never We can cross the sea not looking over your shoulder not thinking bout what might be Just staying in the middle Not thinking fast or slow Openin my chest up Cause I want to feel it all Why did you go use your head? When it’s your heart you should speak to? Why did you go use your head When it’s your heart you should speak to? I painted a picture Ripped it up after Before the paint dried I changed my mind Now I’ve spent some time holding hands None of them fit right I think I understand Should’ve stayed in the middle Not thinking above or below Should’ve opened my chest up Let myself feel it all Why did you go use your head? When it’s your heart you should speak to? Why did you go use your head When it’s your heart you should speak to?

motion 04:27
listen now, time is old I feel the lines on my brow they're buried deep in my skull they're deeper now in this light is it motion if I feel like I'm just losing ground? is it motion if the static keeps pulling me down? feathering shoulder put my feet ever forward I feel like i'll crumble into the deep try to make sense of what's before me is it motion if I feel like I'm just losing ground? is it motion if the static keeps pulling me down?

waited 'til I saw the sun don't know why I didn't come Ieft you by the house of fun don't know why I didn't come don't know why I didn't come when I saw the break of day wished that I could fly away instead of kneeling in the sand catching tear-drops in my hand my heart is drenched in wine but you'll be on my mind forever [insert trumpet here] out across the endless sea I would die in ecstasy instead I'll be a bag of bones driving down the road alone my heart is drenched in wine but you'll be on my mind forever something has to make you run don't know why I didn't come feel as empty as a drum don't know why I didn't come don't know why I didn't come
