the sun
peace, one love
[Verse 1]
reminiscence of last night
still on your mind
but i wake up
the carpet is really comfortable
when you've been sitting on it for a long long time
someone please stop me
from staying up so late
i think it's starting to
effect how i think about you
(i can't stop thinking about you)
i go out and i walk across the lawn
i try to make sure i don't make eye contact
with the neighbors
i never want to talk to
i never want to talk to them
i'm sure they think i'm a real a**hole
but i push it out of my mind like i do a lot of other things
and i carry on
peace, one love
[Verse 2]
and i drive
and i drive
i make sure that the parking break's not on this time
that caused a lot of trouble for everyone around you
last time
but it seems like that happens a lot
i'm at the gas station now
and there's a lot of people around
and it's making me feel a bit comfortable
to get out of my car
i wish i could live my life in third person
i'm self conscious about every part of who i am
i don't needn't to feel this way
when I've got nothing to hold me back
when has that ever been enough
when has that ever been enough
I'm never happy with who i am
we are never happy with who we are
we are never happy
we are never happy with who were are meant to be
peace, one love

i head out
as my gps reroutes me across the town
it says it'll be about 15 minutes
if i don't slow down
i pull out in front of some traffic
and people get angry
but i keep my head
i'm on the highway now
there's so much construction
I'm starting to get scared
I can see cars coming up behind me
but there's only one lane so i have to go faster
and then i miss the next three turns
and the gps reroutes me again
i still have no f**ing clue where i am
i'm just trying to get somewhere that i need to go
and it's like f** what's going on
i'm like the only car in this lane now
that's how i like it to be, i like to be alone
that's how i like it to be, i like to be alone
that's how i like it to be, i like to be alone
that's how i like it to be, i like to be alone
that's how i like it to be, i like to be alone
that's how i like it to be, i like to be alone
that's what i keep telling myself, that's how i like it to be
i like to be alone
that's how i like it to be, i like to be alone
that's not
that's not how i like it to be, i don't like to be alone
that's not how i like it to be, i don't like to be alone
i don't
i don't like being alone
i don't like being alone
i thought i used to like being alone, but

This is a poem i wrote
a while back, when i was still going to school
my only goal tonight is to feel alright
sit up straight and support yourself
you're not old
phelot lurks across my forehead in the shade
who are you and what are you hiding from
he says "if dying is an art
then you'll do it exceptionally bad"
and you'll never do anything well
"oh Stetson you who were with me in the ships at Mylae"
I thought for a moment
that my vision was beginning to fog
after all the d** i just took
to try and make me feel a little bit better (about myself)
but it was just smoke
I couldn't see it at first
you said it probably wasn't real
but why not
it might as well be to us
what am i supposed to do
how am i supposed to cope with myself
shut-up you already know that
then why don't you do it
cause i don't know
i wish i was a separate person from myself
so that I could beat the sh** out of me
i just want it to be seventy
in the middle of winter
so that i can sneak out at night
and drive my car down to the lake
you know the spot
you know the spot
[Pre-Chorus]
How'd i end up so off the road
can i help myself back to where i'm headed
i'm dreading going back to rome
when in rome i'm always afraid because
How'd i end up so off the road
can i help myself back to where i'm headed
i'm dreading going back to rome
when in rome i'm always afraid of love
[Chorus]
How'd i end up so off the road
can i help myself back to where i'm headed
i'm dreading going back to rome
when in rome i'm always afraid of love
