Black Cat

Had to pick my jaw off the floor
When you walked into the Black Cat upstairs door
Ain't seen you in fifteen years
But of course you'd find me here
After I've consumed too many beers
Gotta talk to you in italics
Acting like a smart Alec
I've always been a nervous wreck around you
This is not how I pictured this
On the back of my eyelids
Every night since 2006
Had to pick my heart off the floor
When you walked away
Brought me back to Baltimore
Ain't seen you in fifteen years
But of course you'd find me here
After I've consumed too many beers
Gotta talk to you in italics
Acting like a smart Alec
I've always been a nervous wreck around you
This is not how I pictured this
On the back of my eyelids
Every night
This is not how I pictured this
Thought I'd be skinnier
And swimming in success by now
This is not how I pictured this turning out

You Are the Wind

Something doesn't feel right
Hate to hear you're out there on your own
Keeping it all inside
Bottled up, all alone
You, to me, are the wind
And I'm a tree
You affect everything
From hurricane
To a calm and gentle breeze
I still feel you always
Something doesn't feel right
Hate to hear you're out there down and out
Keeping it all inside
Bottles broken on the ground
You and me
The wind, a tree
Swaying slightly in your breeze
Might be self abuse
But I'm growing roots
Standing tall
Waiting for you
Might be self abuse
But I'm growing roots
Standing tall
Waiting for you
Something doesn't feel right
Might be self abuse
But I'm growing roots
Standing tall
Waiting for you

I Get It!

I walk around with these half-hatched dreams
Can't seem to put in the effort it needs
To make a difference
To show up strong
I never do that, just walking along
Life keeps slipping away from me
I get it! I get it! I get it! I get it!
I'm blossoming to mediocrity
I get it! I get it! I get it! I get it!
The best of intentions live and die in my mind
Like friendships, unwatered and dry
I've seen some good people come and go
I don't make excuses anymore
Never really "falling out"
Just crawling out doors
Life keeps slipping away from me
I get it! I get it! I get it! I get it!
I'm blossoming to mediocrity
I get it! I get it! I get it! I get it!
Life keeps slipping away from me
