lyrics

He’s been looking down for seven months now
Became what he despised from desired somehow
Failed every last spell we case
Made love half assed
As some homoge olly oxen free to the good days that have passed
But if you don’t want to be here
We don’t have to be here now
And if you don’t want to be here
Why are we here now

When we could just start over
Somewhere down the river
See I could sling drinks at any local bar
Your wine wreathed winner
It’s weak coffee, neon diners
Me sleeping in your lap
I’ll climb over you to switch drivers
A young Springsteen drove like that
Gas station hats

I’ve been looking down for seven months now
The height was such a high till the later unwound
Your eyes are always red
From weed, tears, or words unsaid
In this bar I’m being barred from being part of the life we both had wed
But if you don’t want to be here
We don’t have to be here now
And if you don’t want to be here
Why are we here now

When we could just start over
Somewhere down the river
See i can sing songs at any local spot
Your sweet ol’ sinner
I know it sounds clichet not to give a fuck about a place
But my allegiance to those mornings with my neck against your face

I’m so sorry sorry
That I made my dreams your dreams
I thought
If I made you me
That loving you’d be easier

We’ve been looking down for seven months now
I know that you despise me but I’ll fix it right now
I’ve been turning off and on the lights in every room
If I focus on life’s questions
I’m never focusing on you
All of these new shaddows
Armed with a jar, I can catch them
Our lives became unfamiliar
And I’m guilty
I let them.

If you don’t want to be here
Don’t be here now

I’m so sorry sorry
That I made my dreams your dreams
I thought
If I made you me
That loving you’d be easier
Oh wisdom of ancient creeks
Narsisius I’m drowning, I’m drowning.

I could just start over
Me and the river
See I can sling drinks at any local bar.
