lyrics

Nothing has to change in three years
You can look across the table in the same dimly lit coffee shop
and see the same face

One that’s telling you how lately all these problems seem paper thin
when life comes in

And though my brain tells me not to let go
Oh, that’s just how it goes
I said goodnight to someone I do not know
and now I’m scared
though I know that there’s no room now to be scared

And now I’m talking on my phone
Looking at the road
Looking beyond the road
Trying to see something that I recognize

But I know that’s not the goal
More than learning to not have focus on my own
Embracing how sometimes I now inhale Hell and exhale hope

A/C in your hair
Cool running down my spine
Rain dampening my clothes
The rest of my life
Today I almost died

...I think I’ll take the long way home
