When I was twelve, I thought I might have died,
May have drowned, but I choked on water
Found the ground between my toes,
My head still floats, and I'm still coughing up this mess
And I might be more lost than I was then
More or less
When I was sixteen, I thought I might have fell
May have found love, but I choked on your lips
And found that ground above my head
My hearts not dead, and I'm still coughing up that mess
But I might be more lost than I was then
More or less
But when I was ten, I thought I might have found God
May have found a friend, but I choked on His word
Beginning and end, my soul won't float
And I'm still coughing up His mess
I think I may be more lost than I was then
More or less
But I'm still here, and I'm still waiting
Still slightly sober, maybe still slightly exaggerating
But I found that ground and all the rest
Found some truth or something slightly less
And if I found one thing,
After all these years of searching
For some kind of resolution
With all my shitty flaws
And all my goddamn friends
And All the shitty things I've said to them
If I could say one last goddamn thing
it'd be, "Fuck it all"
i'm no good so i'll let everyone else do the talking abt how great this album is bc i have more important things to talk abt like that it was recorded in my hometown!! i was walkin around a stupid little ten-year-old and they were in the stu makin this album less than a mile from my house!! what!!!!!
