i'm calling it a work in progress
and at this rate you should too
three years won’t do the trick
these songs still sound like you
sometimes i think i have a good side
but i'm not sure which one it is
if you were here, i’d ask you
if you did
i hold my tongue so i don't ask you
to stay, just kiss me before you go
you leave me stumbling through the darkness
like a night shift of my own
and knowing you’re awake six miles away won’t help me sleep
why does this still mean so much to me
knowing you’re awake six miles away won’t help me sleep
why does this still mean so much to me
knowing you’re awake six miles away won’t help me sleep
why does this still mean so much to me

february's wary
of the way i fall asleep
says she finds it kinda scary
the way i barely breathe
and i say
honey i'm just slowing down for once
and won't you stay?
i haven't felt this good in months
i've been kindly waiting
to stop seeing october's ghost
but she keeps leaving and taking
half of me each time she goes
and i say to all my friends
that she could only fool me once
but the longest i can run
is 11 months
i thought i'd march but never had the time
and april said that i'd be fine
and may you ever feel like you were wrong
i know you'd say you knew it all along
so says my therapist
that i won't only feel it once
if i felt like it i'd tell him
i haven't felt a thing in months

waiting to see how much i change
now i’m older, but im still not your age
you leave me to figure it out
put me on the shelf but turn me around
i listen to every word you say
wanting you to tell me everything anyway
i wonder if id said it loud enough
would you respond before i make it up
every time i cut my hair
i look less like when you were here
every time i cut my hair
i look less like when you were here
every time i cut my hair
to look less like when you were here
every time i cut my hair
i look less like when you were here

i brush the smoke out of my mouth
before i show up at your house
you just moved in right down the street
I better get a new bike seat
between my house and your front door
im seeing things ive seen before
but everything i thought i knew
looks different on the way to you
hold me but don’t need to tell me what it means
you make it feel the way it does in dreams
im staying in my sweaty clothes
that i wore at yours when i come home
in the middle of the night
kissing you i feel alright
hold me but don’t need to tell me what it means
you make it feel the way it does in dreams
between my house and your front door
im seeing things ive seen before
but everything i thought i knew
looks different on the way to you
