about

I've been itching to write something for a few days and just got the time! I'm not motivated enough or enthusiastic enough for this particular song to give a full band arrangement right now, but everything in time I guess.

lyrics

Verse 1:
Sure, the words have flare
But purpose?
Eyes that ricochet
Make me nervous

Everyone's a poser and it doesn't rhyme
I'm running out of tombstones to hide behind

Chorus:
Tell me everything
Twenty words or less
Drop the ball early
So I won't confess

And when everything goes south
I have to say it flatly now
I can only fix it if I'm honest

Verse 2:
Sure, my heart is broke
But bleeding?
I exaggerate
My feelings

I'm the only poser and I just can't write
I'm doing handstands on steep inclines

Chorus:
Tell me everything
Twenty words or less
Drop the ball early
So I won't confess

And when everything goes south
I have to say it flatly now
I can only fix it if I'm honest

Bridge:
I don't know what to play
It just won't come
I don't know what to say
So I'll just run

The formula is failing
But it's all I've got
Let's give the chorus
One more shot

Chorus:
Tell me everything
Twenty words or less
Drop the ball early
So I won't confess

And when everything goes south
I have to say it flatly now
I can only fix it if I'm honest
