Sad

I tried to grow like the other trees
'Cause I thought it would make me sprout
In my head you brought me down onto my knees
And now I think I know what I'm about.
You bring me down to reality
And I really thought that was a start.
But now you go, you're telling me
That someone else has got your heart.
Well, of course they do
And I do too
Not really, I just want some way to talk to you. (x4)
Maybe I'll try to figure it out
I think I know what you're all about
All I've ever seen, all I've ever had
But you know one thing, that's what makes it sad.
I tried to move like the other cars
'Cause I thought it would save my gas
But you brought me up into the stars
And now I think I know what is my task.
You bring me out, as far as I can see
Farther than I've ever tried.
But now look at what you're telling me,
Now I've got to go run and hide.
Well, of course I do
And you do too
Not really, I just wanted to relate to you. (x2)
Maybe I'll try to figure it out
I think I know what you're all about
All I've ever seen, all I've ever had
But you know one thing, that's what makes it sad.
Maybe I'll try to figure it out
I don't fuckin' know what I'm all about
I don't know what I see, I don't know what I have
I don't know nothing, that's what makes me sad.
I always put my all into just one person
And it brings me down, it really brings me down
I don't know much, but I know one thing for certain
It's bringing me down, it really brings me down
I guess I wanted you to save me. (x forever)
I wanted you to save me, but from what?
Maybe I'll try to figure it out
I think I know what you're all about
All I've ever seen, all I've ever had
But you know one thing, that's what makes it sad.
Maybe I'll try to figure it out
I don't even know what I'm sad about
I've been given all I've seen, I've been given all I have
Got no reason to be sad, that's what makes me sad.

I thought I had grown out of this
I thought I had got better
Guess I had lied to myself again
I thought I wasn't gonna cry again
I thought the tears had gone
I guess I had lied to myself again.
But you and your love brought me up when I was down
You and your love picked me up from the ground.
All my life I've been waiting for you...
Now I don't need to stand in the dark
Now I don't need to turn on the light
If you're standing here next to me.
Now I don't need a therapist
Now I don't have to brood like this
You're standing here next to me.
You and your love are all I need to survive
You and your love, all my life you been waiting for I've
All my life I've been waiting for you...

So It Seems
04:16

In my old apartment
With the white-colored walls and the yellow bathroom stalls
I had thought it funny
To be out there in the orange-colored hair.
I mean, I had it prior—before
But I thought it unique to increase it
and then I walked out the door
and wanted to erase it.
And now the sky is purple, or is it red?
You know, I can't see that well.
I need to stay up late, but I'll remain in bed
You know, I can't think that well.
I'm a man, but only in my nightmares
I'm a star, but only in my dreams
I'm a puppet to the world and every kind of girl
So it seems.
In my new bedroom
The ceiling and eggy tint and the walls are made of mint
I don't know what's funny
But I tend to prefer it that way.
And now the sky is purple, or is it red?
You know I can't think that well.
I need to stay up late but I'll remain in bed.
You know I can't think that well.
I'm a man, but only in my nightmares
I'm a star, but only in my dreams
I'm a puppet to the world and every kind of girl
So it seems.
I'm a man, but only in my nightmares
I'm a star, but only in my dreams
I'm a puppet to the world and every kind of girl
So it seems.

To Change My Mind
02:38
|
|||
I don't know where I came from
I don't know where I'll be
I don't know where I'm going
I don't know what I'll see
I don't know a lot of things
I don't know what to say sometimes
I hope one day I'll find
Someone to change my mind.
Maybe you could be that person
But, you know, I doubt it so
In my life, all these people
Seem to come and go.
I doubt you will understand
I don't understand myself sometimes
I hope one day I'll find
Someone to change my mind.
Doesn't have to be another, maybe it could be three
Or maybe that someone is me.
I don't know where I came from
I don't know where I'll be
I don't know where I'm going
I don't know what I'll see.
I don't know a lot of things
And I don't know what to say sometimes
I hope one day I'll find
Someone to change my mind.

She's not the last girl in the world
I really need to stop finding people to obsess over.
She's not the last girl in the world
But ain't it so convenient that I know her?
I feel so hot in the winter, I feel so cold in the summer
Can't get my mind off the trivial things, it really is a bummer.
I want you to be mine
When will it be my time?
When will I get my mind off of all the times we'll never have?
I'm really acting like she's the last girl in the world
(She's not the last girl in the world
So many conversations in my head that never happened before)
She's not the last girl in the world
Can't help but imagine myself going up to her door.
And every time I do so, she always says no
I'm always so hard on myself even in my head
And in reality, instead, I feel
I feel so hot in the winter, I feel so cold in the summer
Can't get my mind off the trivial things, I keep writing these songs about her
I want you to be mine
When will it be my time?
When will I get my mind off of all the times we'll never have?
I'm really acting like she's the last girl in the world

You know, I think I like you
I want to be with you
But what's holding me back? What's been holding me back
Oh no
You know, I would love to love you
I'd love to be with you
But what's holding me back? What's been holding me back?
Oh no
Something keeps telling me that it won't work, because nothing ever does
I keep trying to fight it off but I give up fast just because
I doubt nothing will ever come of this, yeah (x3)
Never felt like this before, never felt like this before
Can't find the words to express my heart completely
I hope you'd understand if I were to find in me
Anything to get it out, anything that's all about what I would say
Something keeps telling me that it won't work, because nothing ever does
I keep trying to fight it off but I give up fast just because
I doubt nothing will ever come of this, yeah (x3)
Never felt like this before, never felt like this before
Oh, it wouldn't hurt to try
Oh, and maybe I would cry
If you said "no"
But that's for me to know
You know, for future reference
I guess so
I doubt nothing will ever come of this, yeah (x2)
Maybe, maybe something could come of this, yeah
Never felt like this before, never felt like this before

Letters on a Photograph
02:25
|

Love is in a fog to me
There is an "n" where "v" should be
I can't see very well
When I try to communicate
It always gets there too late
So I just shut up and keep on driving.
Get me some headlights
So I can be a deer.
Get me some flashlights
I'll make them reappear.
Love is in a jar for me
High up on the shelf I can't see
Try to get it down for free;
Shattered glass.
Letters scattered down the drain
Shards through my arm, inciting pain
"o" and "e" are what remain,
I feel the same.
Get me some paper
I'll rearrange what I have.
Get me a number
I guess I'll just cut it in half.
