lyrics

Its straight down and I don't wanna fall
I see you in broken bottles that I've been throwin' against the wall
Apologies are an expected complication
but memories tend to uncomplicate themselves

I wish I was a protagonist
with a working moral compass, and the will to give a shit
There's nothing finer than to smile by yourself
Sharing thoughts feels like mixing water into oil

And its hard to tell
if I've stopped to take a rest
or if I've just run out of gas

You've gotta learn to wait your turn
No one wants to know what you deserve or what you've earned
To misremember is to be a human being
To be specific is to fabricate detail

And going out's a waste of time
And staying in will make you rot
And I can't think of a way to count the things I'm not
And I can't wait to wait for you
