You are a satellite
You don’t blink across my sky
I’m all alone at night
You’re drifting far
Woke up from a long nap
I guess I was sleeping
I don’t feel wiser I’m still tired
I just broke through the clouds
I don’t know where I am
Ten years older
A ring on my hand
Shiloh doesn’t know my name
I work downtown
I don’t mean to sound ungrateful
I’m just surprisedTime passed me by, Passed me by
Time passed me by, Passed me by
Time passed me by, Passed me by
Time passed me by, Passed me by
Time passed me by, Passed me by
Time passed me by, Passed me by
Time passed me by, Passed me by
Time passed me by, Passed me by
Time passed me by, Passed me by
Time passed me by, Passed me by
Time passed me by, Passed me by
Time passed me by, Passed me by
Time passed me by, Passed me by
Time passed me by, Passed me by
Time passed me by, Passed me by
Time passed me by

I want to make someone feel something
I wanna say something hasn't been said before
I think I know all the answers
But I do not ask any questions
Mmmm Mmmm
Mmmm MmmmAll my lies
They have to rhyme
Maybe they don't
Why is this song so hard to write Maybe it's notAs long as you are okay
Maybe I don't have to be
“I'm fine” is my go to line
There is comfort in the shadow
All my lies
They have to rhyme
Maybe they don't
Why is this song so hard to write Maybe it's not
Ooooh
All my lies
They have to rhyme
Maybe they don't
Why is this song so hard to write Maybe it's not

Do you know we've all got scars
They make us who we are
And if you're still bleeding
That's not right
Stubborn man does it on his own
Strong man knows he's not aloneI'm sorry
That looks so heavyAre you okay
It's alright if you're not
And it's true we are not the same
But your pain is my painI'm Sorry
That Looks so heavy
I’m Sorry

Did you walk away or did I
Or did we both change
Don't worry about my soul
Build bridges over walls
We don't see the same
No one sees me like you doMy mother taught me
How to love
And ask for what I need
I'll respect you
Will you respect me
We will disagree
Mother
Come back to meSomebody once told me
There's nothing bad coming to get you
There is no them
If there is I'm one of them
We all have a common enemy
Inside of you and meMy mother taught me
How to love
And ask for what I need
I'll respect you
Will you respect me
We will disagree
Mother
Come back to meOoooh
Come back to me
Ooooh
Come back to me

Estate sale sign
Caught my eye
I went inside
I didn’t know you
I hope a piece of all of us is carried on
Like the tune to a song
One that goes on and onYou’ve got me thinking
About what I’m leaving
When they don’t know me
MmmmmmmDriving around
Downtown
People walking by
Everyone is going to die
Maybe you can live forever
In the minds of those
Who rememberYou’ve got me thinking
About what I’m leaving
When they don’t know me
MmmmmmmI didn’t know
I didn’t know
I didn’t know
I didn’t know
I didn’t know
I didn’t know
I didn’t know

There's more than this
Baby there's more
There's more than this
Baby there moreCome with me
I don't know where
It's okay that you are scared
You see the green
I see the gray
For what it's worth
I tried to stayThere's more than this
Baby there's more
There's more than this
Baby there moreCome with me
I don't know where
It's okay that you are scared
You see the green
I see the gray
For what it's worth
I tried to stayOhhh
OhhhNow my anxiety
Is my priority
My wall of smiling
Is making a hole in me
Always ahead of me
But I'm right where I should be
Holding my boundary
But you're much too lonely
You will grow old with me
You will grow old with me
You will grow old with me
You will grow old with me

I’m afraid to look at my phone tonight
Will I be defined by what I find
It’s not that I’m afraid to be in the light
But are you someone I can hide behindIf you believe in me
Maybe I won't have to
If you believe in me
Maybe I won’t have to
Ooooo
If you believe in me
Maybe I won’t have to
Maybe I won’t have toWhy do possibilities feel like pressure to me
If you tell me what to do
Then I won't have to choose
I know I can do anything
Anything is too many optionsIf you believe in me
Maybe I won't have to
If you believe in me
Maybe I won’t have to
Ooooo
If you believe in me
Maybe I won’t have to
Maybe I won’t have to
Oh
Maybe I won’t have to
If you believe in me
Maybe I won't have to
If you believe in me
Maybe I won’t have to
Oh
If you believe in me
Maybe I won’t have to
Maybe I won’t have to

Blue to black
Certainty had always been a friend
Sifting leaves things behind
I look up at the moon
It knows more than I doAnd I’ll wait
I’ll wait for tomorrow
But I won’t forgetI feel two things at once
But it’s easier to call it all bad and move on
I’m still soft
The heart is mild
Poke a hole and watch it as it pours out wineAnd I'll wait
I'll wait for tomorrow
But I won’t forgetOooh, Oooh, Oooh
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh

Refuse
Forget
The long Torment
The bigger man
Won’t understandYou said I’d come around
I did
But just kept walking
With a limp
I could have just saidNow my back’s a little stiff
From lying in our bed
Trying not to hold your hand
Would it have been so badOh if I could open up
And tell you why I’m stuck
Would you take advantage
Or listen inOh now I don’t want to talk
But you’ll listen if I walk
So I’m running
I’m still runningDid I win when I won
The fight against the stubborn kid
Who won’t give in
This could happen again
Mmmm
Mmmm
Mmmm
Mmmm
Mmmm
Mmmm
