mismatching socks, shit-talking cops
anxiety slop, who would've thought?
daydreaming swap, live-in garage
chugging beers in my backyard, taking pictures of my dog
rock'n'roll
'cause gravity gets heavier
as time goes on
clandestine amateur
"you either run or you fall flat"
but your career path is a trap
"can't be no feelings bureaucrat"
shit man I relate to that
just when I thought I had climbed out from where I'd been
a memory of you pulls me back in
gotta get smart, before it gets dark
a walk in the park, don't even start
I know it by heart
bye heart, bye heart
I know it by heart
bye heart
I like your new tattoos
they look good on you
it's nice to know some things elude your parents' point of view
let it go
struggle with the sentiment
don't you know
still trying to find my element
maybe we'll gently decompose
maybe the world will just explode
still unsure what that connotes
seize the day, oh I suppose
it's hard to phrase how tired I am of all this shit
if my brain could walk I think it'd have a limp

observation solo rollback outlook so-so reticent, hesitant
validation promo pull through too much gusto reminisce, Icarus
you can take your time just
slow your roll now
half-heart scribbled rhymes we'll
sell it somehow
choose a vector winds are changing on the daily
but direction never satisfied my cravings
salutation tone set awkward sidestep regret agonize, compromise
proclamation regroup success passion mood swoop empathize, socialize
you have so much time, friend
don't you know that
it's all by design
huh, Sunday mousetrap
feeling shitty can't do anything with purpose
won't ask for much man I'm content to scratch the surface
pass the buck
be a stranger
give a fuck
you're in danger
I can see that's how you feel when you're around me

bad people get all of the luck
when I close doors I slam 'em shut
my short term memory hella sucks
still don't know why I feel so stuck
my disposition's off the cuff
most things I do just for the love
even if all my records bust
I'm still so glad I called your bluff
maybe this time it'll work
to get this far it took some nerve
chasing your dreams is not a quirk
there's just no way to dodge a swerve
so call up gramps don't be a jerk
call me deflection connoisseur
there's like 3 things I know for sure
everything else is just a blur
well still I never learn
I spend my money much more quickly than it's earned it must be
so exciting living paycheck to paycheck
I'm always tired
and I won't hide it anymore
