Recently I've been driving with my eyes closed
Hoping I'll implode in a matter of seconds
My desire it beckons
I need reading glassees
I can't see anyone I want up close
But who would I see?
I've spent the past whole year running away from me
Maybe jogging, yeah, that'll fit it better
Or how I only go out if it's the perfect weather
And it might just be placebo but at least I'm feeling something
I think if you jumped off a cliff right now I'd follow in the same fashion
She gets me, with all that passion
Talking didn't work; I've been writing and reading
Exercising my breathing
In, out, in and again
I only want you around if I think you're convenient
I gotta stop lying just cuz it's convenient
I dialed her cell-phone number
In a tight-knit sweater for the worse or better
I don't know who allows me to speak
I know I talk big game but talk's not cheap
I've swung slot machines where if you hit three cherries the lights'll light up real, real, real, real bright
And when I'm alone I'll envision a guy like me seeing them shine
This culture's crazy--we think we have time but we don't

I'll be honest about it
If you'll be honest about it
We had nothing left in common
You're too earnest and I'm at the bottom
Maybe one day--in a coffee shop
I could see you, we could hit it off
But I'm just like booze when the buzz wears off
You can't stomach it
You won't wanna talk to me at all
So we'll whisper into wishing wells
Pawn off our cars, purchase a carousel
End right back up where I swore we wouldn't
Babe I spent all our quarters, knew it, but I shouldn't
There comes a time in everyone's life
You gotta have a game plan
Well I haven't done mine
I like moments
I like the present tense
The farthest that I've planned is when I gotta pay rent
Is this what you meant when you said I was lazy
I gotta admit I see your point now baby
Is this what you meant when you said I don't feel it
I gotta stop lying just cuz it's convenient
And you won't talk to me at all
I'll be honest about it
If you'll be honest about it

Just like the way you get when I show up late
I have been pouting and decaying
Stuck in a corner reciting poetry
I've been caught glancing at the moon
I hope the sun will come soon
I get embarrassed when people say they've been missing me
This is the way you'd talk to me without anyone listening
I'd hear people cheer and drown them out unintentionally
This is the way I'd talk to you when we had no clue what to do
I'd have my gut punched until I bleed and still wouldn't move
I'm scared I write so many things down they won't be heard the way I want them to sound
I've taken a new interest in listening
So many people will come and go but never forget the ones who show you indirectly what you truly value
This is the way that you would scream "you do not mean a thing to me"
And then your breath left and I couldn't quite catch up with you
So, this is the way that I have been--making excuses for my sin
Look at the mess that you turned me into
Look at the mess you've turned me into

She wore our dad's jacket when she wanted to touch the stars
She'd stand on her tiptoes and swear to me that it's not that far
I remember the constellations
I remember everything
I remember the cadence of your mouth quivering
It was 40 degrees in Northwest Texas and we were shivering
I always admired how your smile on a Friday night
Didn't disappear into the morning
You're beautiful and dignified
I look up to your compassion
I don't think I ever told you that
Maybe when I get home we can argue again about the thermostat
I'll support you all over the world if you promise to give me a map
There's thousands of miles out there
We grew up inches apart
I'm smiling while I write this
I hope you're smiling wherever you are
Because you're worth it
Because you deserve it
You are

I'm better now at coping and feeling good on my own
I've thought a lot
I feel old now
My back's gonna brake like a plane losing cargo
I'm better now
There are people I can call when I have got the gall to go out in the dark
Mark your calendars
Save the date
Because time's passing fast but I think I'm running late
I can't afford a watch these day's
I pray for running shoes and to check off some of my to-do's
And budgeting will be the death of me
I indulge in what I want and abstain from what I need
I need to not talk over people
Not chalk it all up to fate
I am elated that I woke up today
You should be too
Because our hearts beat without a clue
Not knowing who they are inspiring with blood
That's love-- it's unconditional
There's always decisions that affect our precision
We're buried by what hold us down
I pray for running shoes and to check off some of my to-do's
To breathe air fresh and new
And to not talk over people
But it's so hard when your mind's going fast, like a hundred miles an hour
I can't stop it

As swiftly as I came I'll usher myself right out
Through the cracks in the floorboards not making a sound
I'm tracing back the clouds to the boarders till I cannot see anymore
And I realize even they're moving on
Why can't I take that as advice?
And I am slowly realizing why all good things must come to an end
And I've come to this obvious conclusion through separation and malcontent
Look around--all my friends are moving on
Why can't I take that as advice
So why I can't take my own advice
I swear that I will eventually
