lyrics

help me out of bed
and into the ground
i took too much
i counted wrong
the cost of sticking around
it breaks my brain
then stops

i rearrange the letters in your name
again

you can't quite say it
but you feel it all the time
staring out a window
at the rest of your life
you're/your right

what if i can't see it anymore?
my circles get smaller
what if i don't want it?
none of it's asked for

so i'll just say it
since i opened up my mouth:
"i'd like to be alive now
the way we write about"
but what does it matter
if no one minds
we'll all feed the earth in a little while
youngest child
pay to smile

what if i don't mean it anymore?
i'm making it all up
what if i'm just reaching?
what are these arms for?
