lyrics

Despondency followed me to Indianapolis
I thought that I could shake it but it just got worse
Beautiful girls always wreck my nerves
And you're beautiful, for what it's worth
Maybe I should keep this to myself
Or write it in between the lines
But I don't have time for subtlety
Because tomorrow we could die

I've been caring less for longer than I can count
But for once I think that I have outdone myself
And now I'm eating all the words I said
I should've never gotten out of bed

Well maybe you're not wrong, maybe it's all chemical
But it's all relative so who cares anyway
I'm still subject to the same rush as you
So please don't blame me for a word I say
I'm sorry that every time we speak
It's like a bad version of a Saves the Day line
But I Can't Slow Down and I'm Through Being Cool
So just Stay What You Are and I'll be fine

I've been caring less for longer than I can count
But for once I think that I have outdone myself
And now I'm eating all the words I said
I should've never gotten out of bed
I should've hit the snooze and slept instead
I should've kept this shit inside my head
