Garden Song 03:09
I don’t really want to start a garden I’m just tryna take my mind off everything You know I always run when I should let you in And I always ask for anything at all but listening I don’t really wanna do anything I just would like to see the look on your face if I did I don’t really wanna do anything I just would like to see the look on your face if I did I don’t really wanna watch the sunset I’m just tryna focus on one thing I don’t really wanna watch the sunset I’m just tryna focus on one thing And it’ll just break my heart If you are disappointed Or when you find out that this isn’t at all what you wanted And it’ll just break my heart If you are disappointed Or when you find out that this isn’t at all what you wanted I don’t really want to start a garden I don’t really want to watch the sunset I don’t really want to start a garden I don’t really want to watch the sunset But I’m just tryna focus on one thing I’m just tryna not waste my time Cause maybe this is something Or maybe it’s just nothing Maybe sometimes I should put up a fight When every single word’s just like a knife Maybe this is something Or maybe it’s just nothing Maybe this is something Or maybe it’s just nothing Maybe this is something Maybe it’s just nothing Maybe it’s just nothing Maybe it’s just nothing

I Can Do It 03:03
I'm turning out like my mother like you said I would Told you go walking find something u like in the woods But I never bother, Still give every person my word I never bother, I never bother Digging up holes til I find some sort of treasure I never know when to give up I keep asking you Sometime come over before I clean up my room And maybe you'll ask me again this time I won't sound dumb You make it seem so much harder than it is I can do it I can do it Get my name off your lips You make it seem so much harder than it is I can do it I can do it While you’re ahead you should quit I don't give good advice I go back on what I said And I keep on pushing for answers while you're still in bed When will you tell me everything I think's in your head I only buy all the books I already read You make it seem so much harder than it is I can do it I can do it Get my name off your lips You make it seem so much harder than it is I can do it i can do it While you're ahead you should quit You push your glasses up And you pull your chair right up you know If I wanted to I'd ask someone else for help It's always the same things I said from the very start do you want to just pull all my skin apart I can do it I can do it I can do it I can do it I can do it I can do it I can do it I can do it

I woke up before the sun this morning And tried to figure out exactly how to fix my hair As I twisted each strand together I remembered exactly how you looked and all your words I stood in my driveway all morning Trying to decide which way I should be running I try to hear your voice to tell me what to do And when I only hear the wind I try to think of some truth I wish I could be there for you I wish that I could know Exactly what to do I wish we could have had more time But all at once I’m tired I'm wearing out my lungs I packed all my things up so carefully Everything in its own place I see a car just like yours drive toward me Everything at once, I stand up tall, and clear my throat I wish I could be there for you I wish that I could know Exactly what to do I wish we could have had more time But all at once I’m tired I'm wearing out my lungs Maybe if I’m okay Everyone will be okay Maybe if I’m never late No one will be angry Maybe if I keep you close I’ll know just what to say Maybe when i find you I won’t run away Maybe I will dream about you Then I’ll know your face Or maybe it’s all up to me I choose where to stay I wish I could be there for you I wish that I could know Exactly what to do I wish we could have had more time But all at once I’m tired I'm wearing out my lungs I wish that I could know But I don't know And I wish I could be sure You're coming home

What if we lose everything What if there’s no way we can win Someone’s gotta change something It’s not really fair that this happened I don’t know what my job is here Do you want me to clean up While you sit back and cheer Me on my knees Can’t stand up or I can’t breathe There’s smoke in the leaves I just lay down, try to give myself some type of release But I feel no relief It’s the weight of the heat Pressing onto me And I know I’m not free And I can’t dream I can’t dream I can’t dream What if we lose everything (we lose) What if there’s no way we can win (there’s nowhere else) Someone’s gotta change something (we can’t go back) It’s not really fair that this happened (lose everything) (we lose, there’s nowhere else, we can’t go back, lose everything) When’s it all gonna collapse The walls fall in and everyone’s trapped The neighbours go by on a little life raft Everything’s gone, nobody can go back And you say life’s just like that But nobody gave us a road map And it’s night time, there’s no signs, and no one to ask There’s no way to go back What if we lose everything (we lose) What if there’s no way we can win (there’s nowhere else) Someone’s gotta change something (we can’t go back) It’s not really fair that this happened (lose everything) You tell me it’s perfectly normal It’s business as usual It’s perfectly normal You’re fine, your belly’s full If you don't fear the water Take my hand and I'll pull What if we lose everything What if we lose everything The sun in the morning The song the bird's singing The mud coating my skin The salt air on my lip Save me my favourite Save me my favourite

I never know expressions And I’m so embarrassing And I like to hold hands I never say the words how I want to But I want to talk to you And I think I’ll tell the truth I think I’ll tell the truth This is like reading a book when it’s worse than the movie I want to leave out the details Forget what I tell you This is like reading a book when it’s worse than the movie I want to leave out the details Forget what I tell you This is like This is like This is like this is like It took a lot of convincing still test if you love me And I wish I didn’t feel like I need to hide things Feels like there’s too much I never learned properly You always turn up Up there way ahead of me This is like This is like This is like this is like This is like this is like This is like reading a book when it’s worse than the movie I want to leave out the details Forget what I tell you This is like reading a book when it’s worse than the movie I want to leave out the details Forget what I tell you This is like when you’re afraid you won’t wake from a bad dream I know if there's something to run from there's a reason I should stay This is why I never speak up I knew you’d make fun of me It’s something I’m always good at Pretend I don’t need help This is like everything This is like everything This is like everything This is like everything This is like everything This is like everything This is like everything This is like everything This is like This is like This is like this is like

I'm always driving In somebody's blind spot Thinking I'm going to crash I never ask you To look at my bruises When I fall down in the Earth's cracks And I always get everything I wanted But I can't make it last Maybe if I sing along to my favourite song One more time I won't feel everything go wrong I always wanna be somewhere alone Maybe if I sing along to my favourite song One more time I won't feel everything go wrong I always wanna be somewhere alone I'm always looking For some kind of fairness The only thing I've found you're on your knees and fists I didn't notice I'm up on your back I can only reach the ripest fruit When you are holding me up Maybe if I sing along to my favourite song One more time I won't feel everything go wrong I always wanna be somewhere alone Maybe if I sing along to my favourite song One more time I won't feel everything go wrong I always wanna be somewhere alone If I could I think I'd die If it meant your mom could be alive How do you decide To take her life and I keep mine She was perfect all along I let everything go wrong I wish you didn't have to be alone Maybe if I sing along to my favourite song One more time I won't feel everything go wrong I always wanna be somewhere alone Maybe if I sing along to my favourite song One more time I won't feel everything go wrong I always wanna be somewhere alone

I don’t really know what I want But it’s covered head to toe In thank you and please and don’t go thank u and please and don’t go You’re not stupid I live in a make believe And I cry and cry at the news that I read I try and try to be someone you need I cry and cry at the news And the look on my dad’s face when I come home And the way that I walk through water when you’re gone I’m always walking through water when you’re gone Who will take care of me if I take care of you Who will take care of me if I take care of you When you finally took my advice It was too late and you couldn’t save anyone And now that you told me what you’re scared of Well I’m terrified I’m terrified I’m terrified I don’t really know what I want But it’s covered head to toe In thank u and please and don’t go I don’t want to ruin your night I don’t wanna ruin your night but do you even know me (I don’t wanna ruin your night) Remember that I never think that I’m right (I’d go anywhere to see anything you showed me) Remember that I never think that I’m right I don’t really know what I want But it’s covered head to toe In thank u and please and don’t go
