lyrics

I go on walks ‘cause there’s nothing better to do

reading closed captions with the TV on mute

I call my friends but they’re asleep; I should be too

sometimes, I miss the old days, when we’d talk until we got confused

watch the night fall

watch me fall apart

oh my god

I can’t do this anymore

October found me picking scabs and feeling dangerous

I woke up with a heavy head in the Eastwood basement

feeling less like a man of god the more my mother says it,

last night I spoke so freely of some things I’m scared that I meant

watch the night fall

watch me fall apart

oh my god,

I can’t do this anymore

punished by the sunshine, I knew that I knew much better

I was losing sight of tomorrow in a heart throb of hard liquor
my father’s on the table saying, son, I wish we were closer

I never know what to say to him, but goddamn that hit too hard

watch the night fall

watch me fall apart

oh my god,

I can’t do this anymore
