about

I wrote this track one week before I told my best friend of two years how I felt about her

lyrics

This deserves so much more than a cursory glance
I’m reserved but that’s normal
When I feel my heart bump with fear
At the chance that this might be something bigger than I ever expected
Guess it’s the finale for season one
Guess I knew that I felt this way all along
From the long nights when I would tell my self
Think it over, over think it

I should do so much more than this perjury dance
My head hurts but that’s normal
See this is the first time in a long time my rationale’s swan-dived
Left me with one thought
You
Should go
Give me more reasons why this might not work
It’d be so much easier to just hit reverse
And let me go sleep, a place where I can
Think it over, over think it

We could never give this a part-time go
It’s all or nothing, together or forever gone
But we can’t just continue to pretend we don’t know
How we both feel, or that the other knows

Hope I learn from the hours I spend in the dark
My head hurts and it’s awful
See this shit don’t happen to me
I’m sick tired and lonely, flipped fried upside down inside out from what I couldn’t see
Coming at me
Straight out the blue, I never knew I’d want my future to be you
Mind over matter didn’t matter in fact it just made me sadder
When I actively tried to battle my feelings, make this not happen
But out of the actions that I could never take back
I found a little consolation package to pick up a bit of baggage
It had been so long since I could imagine
Myself actually having a relationship I’d be glad in
So even if I’m overthinking it for now
I’ll still be proud of the progress made
The pain’s just the toll that the process takes
I’m always getting better if I learn from mistakes

We could never give this a part-time go
It’s all or nothing, together or forever gone
But we can’t just continue to pretend we don’t know
How we both feel, or that the other knows

A new song on the first of the month, for every month of 2019.
I'm still figuring it out but expect feelings of hip-hop, emo revival, indie rock and maybe some trap or contemporary r&b, im not sure 100% sure yet so we'll just see what happens
