For the first time in a long time you smiled at me
I think you’re happy, but I’m not sure what that means
I’ve seen stranger things; I’ve seen ships out at sea
And I wished that I could be at peace
The music’s loud but we’re quiet now
I love you but I don’t know how
The silent pilgrims are looking for homes
The words we say don’t belong to anyone
The way you kissed me, I felt so alone
I’m tired of checking my unbothered phone
And it’s thousands of messages haunted by ghosts
That refuse to be silenced, they scream and they moan
Yeah, the highest highs have the lowest lows
And I’m coughing in the old dirt road
Where I planted a seed that never seems to grow
But it envies the time that I gave you that rose
That you wore for the night until it died in a pose
It struck when you cried and we watched it decompose
And it never seems to leave me alone
And I’ve tried to pick myself up
I love you if that’s still enough
And I’ve tried to get myself lost
I’m hoping that you’ll be missing me
My friend finds his solace in TV shows
They capture his mind, he forgets what he knows
And he envies the actors, the lines that they’re fed
The wisdom they dispense, his disbelief suspended
On some romantic notion of human devotion
His heart on his sleeve like he still thinks emotion
Is something that I’m still capable of
So someone give me a new drug to take
Cause I’m not happy with my current fate
Yeah, someone give me something new to fuck up
Cause I am looking for another crutch
Now I am giving up the chase. I’m tired of running in the human race
