own ways

woke up feeling so psycho, it's just another day
couldn't sleep last night at all, i'll just sit here indefinitely
i tried everything i could to help me calm down
but nothing worked at all, it's always the same
i'm not sure what i'm supposed to do but i'll admit i'm overwhelmed
everyday is just another version of some kind of hell
and i'm trying, i promise, but it never feels like it will work
and deep down, i know, i'm just another insensitive jerk stuck in their own ways
couldn't talk to anyone, it's just another day
walking around in a daze just thinking of stupid me
ignoring the texts on my phone, i guess i'll just stay alone
but when i'm all alone, i feel like i'll explode
i'm not sure what i'm supposed to do but i'll admit i'm overwhelmed
everyday is just another version of some kind of hell
and i'm trying, i promise, but it never feels like it will work
and deep down, i know, i'm just another insensitive jerk stuck in their own ways

never escape

i've been obsessed with the concept of freedom since i was a little kid
and i've been trying my whole life to somehow achieve it
but it's abstract and seems impossible to ever truly grasp
i think i feel it for a minute and then it fades to the black
and i feel trapped when i'm stuck in the day to day
so i'm always tying up my shoes and moving from place to place
and i'm always looking for some kind of other friendly face
but often it feels like there's no one and i just keep on alone
and i'll get bored and i'll make war on everything i know
i quit my job spontaneously
i was working 60 hours a week and i felt too crazy
all i make are rash decisions and i hold to some vague dream
sometimes i feel i'm on the right path but nothing is as it seems
i don't want to grow old and regret everything i've done
but most of the time it's all a blur and nothing ever seems fun
anymore
and i;m wasting my life away
and i feel like i'll never escape

don't say it much

waitin for you to get off the bus
i can't wait to see you, the time is never enough
and i see you over in the station
and i can't believe that you're with me again
and i don't say it much
but i'm glad to be alive
tonight
driving up north to hike with my friend
it's been a couple long years but here we are again
we're back to the same jokes and it's nice to catch up
it blows my mind just how time flies but our friendship never stops
and i don't say it much
but i'm glad to be alive
tonight
a lot of days i wish i didn't exist at all
but there's sometimes that make it all worth it
if i could just get through those days, then i'll be okay
but sometimes i just can't fake it
waiting for a ride sticking my thumb out
it's not sustainable but it helps me get by
exploring places everywhere i never wanna stop
when i stay up late with folks i just met my heart it opens up
and i don't say it much
but i'm glad to be alive
tonight

stuck inside my head

how can i worry about climate change when i could barely leave my bed
and how can i worry about politics when i need to help out all my friends
and how can i worry about factory farms when i can barely remember to eat
and how can i worry about anything when i get so stuck in my head
and i wish i could do more in my life
but i can barely stand my own fight
and i wish i could do more in my life
but i can barely get my own problems right
how can i worry about nuclear war when i need to pay my medical bills
and how can i worry about acid rain when i need a car to get anywhere
and how can i worry about plastics in the ocean when i need the grocery store
and how can i worry about anything when i get so stuck in my head
and i wish i could do more in my life
but i can barely stand my own fight
and i wish i could do more in my life
but i can barely get my own problems right
but i dont wanna be selfish
i dont wanna be selfish
all my life

specks

looking out at the moon
reminds me of how insignificant my existence is in the grand scheme of things
and how i will be dead in the blink of an eye, we can question it all but there's no reasons why
we can cling to whatever it is that we need but we can never break the reality
that we are all just specks
and soon we'll all be dead
looking out at the moon
i think about how sad i can get but my feelings are essentially meaningless
and theres billions of others feeling sad too but i always feel like a lone fool
and how many more are looking at the moon and it feels relieving even though it's too soon
that we are all just specks
and soon we'll all be dead
so spend time with your friends and go follow your dreams and follow all of your curiosities
and try new things and do whatever you can and go to the places that you've never been
and set your goals and finish them too because time is short and soon you'll be through
and if you're not ever feeling very good then just be relieved you'll be gone really soon
because we are all just specks
and soon we'll all be dead

staring at my phone

30 minutes go by staring at my phone
45 minutes go by staring at my phone
an hour goes by staring at my phone
sitting in my room all alone
2 hours go by staring at my phone
2 and a half hours go by staring at my phone
4 hours go by looking at my phone
sitting in my room all alone
well is this what life is all about
staring at the phone inside my hand
i don't know how to talk to folks
but i've got a great instagram
5 hours go by staring at my phone
5 and a half hours go by staring at my phone
6 hours go by staring at my phone
sitting in my room all alone
10 years go by staring at my phone
15 years go by staring at my phone
20 years go by staring at my phone
my eyes go blind and i die alone
why go out and live my life
when i could sit here the entire day
why should i do anything at all
but sit and stare at internet pages
watching mindless videos
and staring at crap for hours
what more could i want in this world
please don't cut the power

reason for existence

what's your reason for existence?
do you have a good family?
do you love your job?
or make some kind of art or something?
what's your reason for existence?
do you strive for lots of money?
get social power and buy stuff that you like?
i know sometimes that's relieving
well i can't find a reason most days
but i guess that that could be okay
what's your reason for existence?
do you like to help out others?
or do you have a dog to take care of?
or some kind of lover?
what's your reason for existence?
do you go to church or look for love?
i guess they're kind of the same
but usually it seems so far away
i can't find a reason most days
but i guess that's what a lot of people say
so what's my reason for existence?
i guess i don't really have one
but i like to do new things
and spend time with my loved ones
i can't find a reason most days
but i guess that that could be okay

playing on the street
sometimes it really sucks
but sometimes in an hours time
i'll make a hundred bucks
sometimes i meet cool people
but mostly they don't care
they'll walk by and ignore more
or give me a judging stare
that's just how it goes in this world
most people will never really care
if you put your heart out in the open
or maybe my music's just annoying
a lady heckled at me one time
she said my music sucked
i laughed and she wouldn't leave me alone
til i walked on down the block77
i've gotten harassed
by police all the time
they say i need a permit
and threaten me with a fine
i've had guys yell in my face
telling me to leave
and sometimes the sun is so hot
i can barely breathe
that's just how it goes in this world
making art is hard just like everything
you've got to do it just for yourself
or it's gonna be real disappointing
sometimes i'll get a crowd
dancing all around
but usually it's just me
standing alone in the middle of town
sometimes i lose my voice
and play til my fingers bleed
i break all my harmonicas
and let me tell ya those things ain't free
i'll play for three hours straight
it's good for cardio
i collect all my dollar bills
and stumble on back home
it's a job just like everything
it can be fun but also frustrating
i'm just trying to practice all my songs
and i guess it all just helps me move on and on

you could never know

you could never know just who i am
yeah you could never know just who i am
everything we see is such a small view
and i don't actually know a thing about you
you could never know who i really am
you could never know who i really am
we're all just putting on masks everyday
and what we see's so limited in every way
and i wish i could know you
but i won't ever
and i try to really know you
but it's not true
you could never know just who i am
you could never know my thoughts behind everything
everything we see is such a limited view
and there's only so much time before we're through

sleep is my favorite time of day
because i don't have to deal with anything
sleep is my favorite time of day
because i don't have to deal with anything
laying in my bed
nothing in my head
laying in my bed
nothing in my head
sleep is my favorite time of day
because i don't have to deal with anything
sleep is my favorite time of day
because i don't have to deal with anything
