Everything keeps changing You can tell by the cracks in the pavement Life’s about the re-arrange things Though the moon goes up and the stars go down And this big ‘ol ball spins round and round I still can’t tell if I’m lost or found Everything keeps changing Nothing stays the same and… One, two, three, four Folks I know have walked out the door That’s just this year there will be more ‘cause everyone keeps changing My heart, beats anyway My eyes, still see the sunny days But I, won’t wait for things to stay the same Everything is change

As we crawled through spaces, As we learned our names, Did you see us the same? Did you look at us the same? From the back porch To the front door Momma Did you hear me call you? Did you help me follow? When you found out, My heart was beating Did you want me to leave it? Did you want me to leave you? Thought I’d ask, right? Did you want to meet me? Did you and dad ask for me? It’s fine if you didn’t Yeah it’s alright, yeah we’re alright Momma Yeah it’s alright, we’re alright anyway Yeah it’s all fine, yeah we’re all fine Momma Yeah it’s all fine, we’re all fine When you held us, Did you ever cross over? Did you square your shoulders? Did you help us get older? Did I want three brothers? Did I want my sister? Did we hurt you, Momma? Am I hurting you, Momma? Do you stay up Wondering if I’ll make it? Have you hesitated? Do you worry about me? Do you pray, Ma? Do you pray that He’ll save me? Do you ask for a favor? Do you think He’ll save us? But it’s alright, yeah we’re alright Momma Yeah it’s alright, we’re alright anyway Yeah it’s all fine, yeah we’re all fine Momma Yeah it’s all fine, we’re all fine

I’m exhausted. Have you heard the news? If you’re not paying enough attention, how are you supposed to know what is true? It’s like a fever. I’m feeling sick but I’m fine No I don’t want your opinion, but that reminds me: have you listened to mine? Ooooooh If you think it’ll last, you just wait Simmer down, let it pass. It’s all just space on the timeline Did you hear what’s-his-face did what’s-it-called and then he didn’t do it again? Yeah man that’s crazy! I don’t trust him, it’s not if but just a matter of when Please cite your sources next time you want to persuade me while we’re on Instagram Oooh well that’s fine, I guess I’ll leave it until you and me go argue again If you think it’ll last, you just wait Simmer down, let it pass. It’s all just space on the timeline If you think it’ll last, you just wait Simmer down, let it pass. It’s all just space on the timeline

You talk to me like I'm not still in love with you I can't believe that's so critical And how much longer will it be like this? Lost and never found, teach me how to drown I can't perceive the chemical reaction that I need Is gone and everything I love has turned to dust I've made so many friends that I don't even like And when it's all said and done I don't want their advice It's never helped before Time can't heal the wounds You never knew you had You'll say it's not so bad I'll scream into the void In search of you again Lose myself instead I'll play it cool and let you walk all over me New game, your rules The atmosphere I've come to know Is running out of oxygen and I'm running out of hope I know I think too much Time can't heal the wounds You never knew you had You'll say it's not so bad I'll scream into the void In search of you again Lose myself instead You talk to me like I'm not still in love with you I can't believe that's so critical And how much longer will it be like this? Lost and never found, teach me how to drown Time can't heal the wounds You never knew you had You'll say it's not so bad I'll scream into the void In search of you again Lose myself instead

There I go again Helplessly fallin' in love with just a friend Why'd you have to go and make me feel this way? I tried to run but it's too late And I know you're no good for me But I know how I feel when you're near me And I can't deny what I'm feeling inside But God made you for her, not me And I know that I'll never be with you Lala la la Lala la la, da da mmmm Always just a friend Ohh that's all I'll ever be Baby no, you'll never be mine So won't you tell me why'd you have to go and make me feel this way? Cause you'll never feel the same... And I know you're no good for me But I know how I feel when you're near me And I can't deny what I'm feeling inside But God made you for her, not me And I know that I'll never be with you Lala la la Lala la la, da da mmmm ohhhh ohh Lala la la Lala la la, da da da da And I know you're no good for me But I know how I feel when you're near me And I can't deny what I'm feeling inside But God made you for her, not me And I know that I'll never be with you

You thought you were everything that you wanted But you sold it all for nothing and you got a ribbon You got it all and I don't think that you know yourself You don't really know yourself I gotta make you mine You know I gotta love you big time Cause I gotta make you mine You know I'll give you the line if you take it right You got a hammer for a heart and That's how you're "getting through it" But you're not even, what, a star? and that's why you keep abusing Everyone but yourself Don't you say you know yourself? I gotta make you mine You know I gotta love you big time Cause I gotta make you mine You know I'll give you the line if you take it right You look so empty and you look so cool Do I know you? You look so empty and you look so cool Do I know you? You look so empty and you look so cool Do I know you? You look so empty but you look so cool Will I know you? Will I know you? Will I know I need you baby, don't you love me You kinda hate it, don't you love me
 I gotta make you mine (I need you baby) You know I gotta love you big time (don't you love me) Cause I gotta make you mine (You kinda hate it) You know I'll give you the line if You take it right (don't you love me) I gotta make you mine (I need you baby) You know I gotta love you big time (don't you love me) Cause I gotta make you mine (You kinda hate it) You know I'll give you the line if You take it right (don't you love me) I need you baby Don't you love me You kinda hate it Don't you love me

Feels like I’m on the last bend Of the deep end But the drowning has Been just fine And when my ears pop And the shell shock Of this pit stop Frees my mind I’ll be alright I can go there now that I’ve stared death in the face Doesn’t it always seem like the parts that made us laugh now make us cry Doesn’t it always seem like the villain pulling the strings is a regular guy You and me have gone bad in a good way I promise The kerosene wipes clean what we couldn’t bear to tarnish I’ll be alright I can go there now that I’ve stared death in the face There’s a conundrum in the wisdom of my spirit Whitewashed hymns and the deadliest sins pushed me to my limit But when you deconstruct you’re shit out of luck for a minute But after the last bend you can break it all down to rebuild it You and me have gone bad in a good way, I promise

I’ve been mistaken These lyrics are taken The neighbors are waking To what I’ve been baking I’ll say what I’m thinking The ships already sinking Now I am rethinking Confidence shrinking The children are self-absorbed They haven’t a clue to what’s in store What does it matter to me? It just gets sadder won’t you agree Go on and cast me The part you’ve been asking No use in masking What we’ve all been lacking To move the air around your mouth It’s all circulating shit talking A moment of clarity A mixture of irony and sincerity Attention retention Didn’t you mention A pendulum force The last six weeks have been a hell of a course

Somewhere (x2) I been around (x2) Somewhere (x2) I been around (x2) Take me somewhere fun so I can treat myself to lunch And a movie ticket for one So I don’t gotta think as much right now Take me somewhere else So I can get myself some help And take my sneaker off the pedal So I don’t do something stupid right now Take me somewhere fine So I can leave my thoughts behind And never worry what they’ll think About the villain that is me right now Take me somewhere once so I can show myself the love That I deserve but it’s unheard of To congratulate the villain right now So won’t you take me somehow Please won’t you take me Somewhere (x2) I been around (x2) Somewhere (x2) I been around (x2) Pick up where I began I wanna live again, I wanna live again (x4)

I feel lost in my headspace In this world i have no place You see these lines upon my face They’re scars from trying to escape These feelings i’ve tucked deep away Something needs to give today Before my head implodes Just for you to say It's not enough It's just too tough You're making a mistake I’ll be fine You're wasting time I don’t know what to do Have you tried to look inside You got the tools you need to thrive This indecision is preventin' Me from breakin’ from this prison I know that i did the time Took five years to cross the line I want to use what i chose to view at least the sights were nice with you It's not enough it's just too tough you're making a mistake I’ll be fine You're wasting time I don’t know what to do I feel lost What was the cost I feel lost What was the cost I feel lost What was the cost I feel lost

You thought she was better She made the same creases on your face and because you let her, You forgot I was your ace and then you left, you forgot, then remembered me You said you moved on but then wrote me A three chord progression that bothered me but I made it part of me I am my own dream queen Stuck on you like nicotine, a little more than ever now it seems I am blind to your red signs now I’m stuck between your lies I’m unvaccinated towards your heartbreak You thought she was better It’s been a while since I’ve seen his face She’s got, pretty eyes and a heartbeat too Lies feel better when they come from you The park that flooded took its memories too Now I’m drowning at the thought of you I am my own dream queen Stuck on you like nicotine, a little more than ever now it seems I am blind to your red signs now I’m stuck between your lies I’m unvaccinated towards your heartbreak Taste my heartbreak Taste my heartbreak Taste my heartache I’m unvaccinated towards your heartbreak Taste my heartbreak Taste my heartache I’m unvaccinated towards your heartbreak I am my own dream queen Stuck on you like nicotine, a little more than ever now it seems I am blind to your red signs now I’m stuck between your lies I’m unvaccinated towards your heartbreak Taste my heartbreak Taste my heartache

Took a razor to my skin and let it bleed Tell me what the hell is wrong with me? I can’t even get away in my sleep Held hostage in my dreams The evil staring back Every time I look in the glass My reflection has me trapped There’s no turning back The man in the mirror wraps his hands around my neck Fighting for control I try to hold my breath Internalized and it runs too deep I don’t think I’ll ever be free The man in the mirror keeps ahold of me tight Close my eyes what an ugly sight This monster is a part of me I don’t think I’ll ever be free Wrestling fighting to be free Chains appear to keep ahold of me My image is the death you see Tension fills the air I breathe Sinking deeper than ever before Demons come knocking at my door Wanna run and hide But I’ll get swept up by the tide It’s all my fault, I do believe Every bad thing that’s happened to me My reflection is a loaded gun I think my time is almost done The man in the mirror wraps his hands around my neck Fighting for control I try to hold my breath Internalized and it runs too deep I don’t think I’ll ever be free The man in the mirror keeps ahold of me tight Close my eyes what an ugly sight This monster is a part of me I don’t think I’ll ever be free

Summers close, don’t you see? Why don’t we wait for the end of this madness to think? I’ve been circling late But I’ll come pick you up and you take you back If you drive off the road If you drive off the road Someone would find you and notify me But I wouldn’t know till you were fast asleep If you drive off the road If you drive off the road There won’t be gardens and parks There won’t be movies and talks There won’t be coffee to drink And loose opinions to hold If you If you If you If you I don’t mind driving for miles and miles And laughing to not go insane from the sadness And letting the lumps in our throats get unraveled And getting all choked up when nothing resolves And I wish there were answers to why we’re alone And I wish we had columns to hold up our chests And I wish we had answers I’d like some myself but please don’t scream at me friend, at least till we’re parked Please don’t drive off the road Please don’t drive off the road
