lyrics

I would be coming home
to dust on the bible and unmade sheets
a lowercase f smeared across my wall
this should've been a hint
to grow the f*ck up
to become a grown up
I'm stuck in my old room

I must not tell lies
mouth and eyes stitched shut
troubled by sad songs
wasting breath on thoughts not heard
exchanging plans for fresh warm love
rushing the hallway kicking the door

I burned pages of digital proof
hit and run came easily to a certain point
just put on my finest concrete shoes
and take a swim in the closest pond
and I'm stuck in my old room

I must not tell lies
mouth and eyes stitched shut
troubled by sad songs
wasting breath on thoughts not heard
exchanging plans for fresh warm love
rushing the hallway kicking the door

I won't cut back on caffeine
cause I can't take to fall asleep
I might be drunk for the third week in a row
seems like it's up to the bottle to start the show
