Lyrics:
I didn’t expect a thing
The soundtrack for too many beers
Seven songs in two years
And somehow you’re not bored yet
Forgive my apprehension
I just wanna keep this safe
That’s forty ounces of faith
And not a drop was poured yet
That’s why I say
Love? Don't give me that.
Till I can give you something back
Why would I say no?
To my dream from forever ago
You want me to get up and go?
Let me pull back the curtain:
There’s a couch with my name on it
In front of my face, a phone.
In front of my “body” a “home”.
A world where consistency is certain
That's why I say
Love? Don't give me that.
Till I can give you something back
No proof in tact
Won’t have me sold and I will
Fold myself in half
Before i snap and I will hold
Myself to that
Until I give you something back
I cleared the bar I set. What more could I achieve?
I know this room so well that I’m afraid to leave
I just wanna cut my teeth a few more times
Keep away from tempting signs
Make no friends and take no risks
So no one gets to fuck with this
I cherish a time
When nobody paid attention
And i sang and i played and i vented
And twenty-five people shrugged
I cherish a life
Before the sudden potential
For twenty-five minutes im special
As soon as they’re over I'm not.
