lyrics

I feel like my sight is misguided
I feel like my lungs have had too much excitement
I'm just the honest child, I'm just an honest boy
Who's nostalgia kicks him at all the wrong times
Now I forgot how to breathe that night
But it won't happen again
I swear I'm smarter than this, I swear I'm smarter than this
But I still get scared, and I wish you would come
It's all I think about and in my mind I'm dumb
I feel like this glove just might be wrong
Just because, I wish you were here

Learning to retain water
Foot presses the drain, just harder
To push through the waffle
The thoughts of something awful
Kisses all the same
Press on my lips and I retain the same water
A feeling out of need and not fodder
Bay and bay and bay
I think I'll find solitude in my disdain
Succumb to the same things
I wish I could get away
