I always imagined you as someone else
I write a lot of songs about hate and anger but
I was never angry at you for what you do
What you did to me... What I did to myself
And now I keep telling my friends that it's not that deep
And maybe this is what they mean by acceptance
(Or possibly depression)
I'm not going back!
What's the point in that?
You're a beautiful soul
And I could never subject you to that
Now I stutter past every single line
It seems insane to think i wrote these overwrought rhymes
All these stray words
String together but I don't know what it means
I don't know what I need (what I need) what I need
Just to be happy
And ever since I flew to Kansas
I spent all my time trying to reclaim
That feeling where the picture on the screen is what I see
But it's not enough
It's never enough
You are fully realized
I'm just a random passerby
You're a beautiful soul
And I could never protect you from that
So I go to parties
I check my phone I wait for your message
I let you know I'm down in upland
You let me know that you love me, so
I can go to sleep at night
I will go to sleep, I will sleep tonight
