what could go wrong

I was fine just a minute ago
But now something else is in control
What could go wrong if I’m all inside my head again, again
You know sometimes, my mind is giving me a hard time, a hard time It’s so irrational, yeah I know
But I can’t ignore it
(What could go wrong) if I said too much
(What could go wrong) if that’s not enough still
(What could go wrong) if I’m running from myself again, again, again (What could go wrong) if I think too much
(What could go wrong) if I’m out of touch now
(What could go wrong) if I’m all inside my head again, again, again
I was fine just a minute ago
Before all my thoughts were overthrown
What could go wrong If I can’t be who I’m trying to become
You know sometimes, my mind is giving me a hard time, a hard time It’s so irrational, yeah I know
But I can’t ignore it
(What could go wrong) if I said too much
(What could go wrong) if that’s not enough still
(What could go wrong) if I’m running from myself again, again, again (What could go wrong) if I think too much
(What could go wrong) if I’m out of touch now
(What could go wrong) if I’m all inside my head again, again, again

I don’t say much but you’ve been amazing
It’s been so long, days gone at a rate that I can’t even keep chasing
There’s too much going on these days
I’ve fallen on my face so many times, I’ll take it
My face is fine, I’ll take it
(It get’s better)
And I feel my heartbeat
And I’ve felt it enough
I sleep like it’s nothing, like I haven’t been struggling
It’s not like it used to be
I’m feeling like everything is open
Everything is open
I like being alone
If I know you’re home
I might call your phone, just to double-check
Are you still there?
You’re my friend
It’s good for me, it seems good for you
And I feel my heartbeat
And I’ve felt it enough
I sleep like it’s nothing, like
I haven’t been struggling It’s not like it used to be
I’m feeling like everything is open
Everything is open
I feel the blood rushing to my head
When I remember everything you said
And I feel so small
When I look at it all

Calm down, stay put
I know you wanna get out of this silhouette town, oh
The walls are covered in soot
But let’s take some time to realign, ‘cause I’m
Talking through you
Talking through you
Talking through you
Talking through you
Slow down, ease off
It’s not a race against time, hit the breaks for a while, oh
I’m still falling for you
So please hear me out, I don’t wanna keep on
Talking through you
Talking through you
Talking through you
Talking through you
Slow down, ease off
It’s not a race against time, hit the breaks for a while (hmm)
I’m not falling for you
So please hear me out, I don’t wanna keep on
And it’s not made for me
And I’m not alone through this whole thing
And it’s not made for me
And I’m not alone through this whole thing
See I know better than to stay up in this town
See I know better than to stay up in this town
‘Cause there’s somewhere that’s better for me
‘Cause there’s somewhere that’s better for me
‘Cause there’s somewhere that’s better for me
Talking through you
Talking through you
Talking through you
Talking through you

I’m standing in the rain
Oh, what a lovely day
(Would you look at that, I feel brand new, I feel brand new, I feel brand new)
Fake a smile until it burns, oh look, we’re having so much fun
(Sounds as if you’re learning to keep your emotions in balance) (Emotions in balance, that’s it!)
I don’t know which way to go
I just wanna be in your company
If I let you inside my mind, would you show me the way?
‘Cause I’ve gone astray from the path I’ve chosen
(Sometimes we expect great things, but things can’t always work out the way we expect)
(And when we’re severely disappointed, we become emotionally upset)
(Expecting too much, disappointment, emotional upset)
Oh, what a waste of time if it’s not a good time
So on the weekends we pretend, Aye
Oh, what a waste of time if it’s not a good time
Serotonin overdose
They got signs with motivational quotes and I hate it
(I can’t take it)
Second hand embarrassment, but I smile and wave and swallow the pain (What can I do now? How do you handle disappointments when they come?)
Oh, what a waste of time if it’s not a good time
So on the weekends we pretend, Aye
Oh, what a waste of time if it’s not a good time
I don’t know which way to go
I just wanna be in your company
If I let you inside my mind, would you show me the way?
‘Cause I’ve gone astray from the path I’ve chosen
What a waste of time if it’s not a good time
So on the weekends we pretend, Aye
Oh, what a waste of time if it’s not a good time
(Channel your emotional energy into a direct attack on your problems)
(But here’s a boy who doesn’t seem concerned, in fact, he doesn’t look as though he could be upset by anything)

tally marks

Tally marks drawn in the dust
Abandoned cars covered in rust
Time has flown past in a rush
I think I’ve had quite enough of it
‘Cause it’s a feeling that I’m after
Every being, we all are
And the feelings that we’re after
Have different meanings to us all
Tally marks drawn in the dust
Abandoned cars covered in rust
Time has flown past in a rush
I think I’ve had quite enough of it
How long before I hit the mark?
How long before I fall apart, oh
I never thought I’d get this far but
I can’t keep trying anymore, no

what she said

Driving down a road I never knew
I think I lost a couple of friends along the way
And what she said to me
When the rain was falling, I wanted to forget
And what she said to me
Made my world stop turning, and left me with regret
I’ve been a little bit off the radar but I needed to go back to where I came from
So I could make sense of who I am
Take a breath of fresh air and try again when the time is right
When the time is right
When the time is right
When the time is right
And what she said to me
When the rain was falling, I wanted to forget
And what she said to me
Made my world stop turning, and left me with regret

clear the view

I don’t know where to put my feelings
I lie awake, staring at the ceiling
Someone tell me now, what am I supposed to do?
I’m stuck within a million thoughts, trying to clear the view
(What am I supposed to do?)
