lyrics

maybe when i wrote that song, i was calling for it wrong
tripping all along
i was longing for to rhyme
trying to fake it, wanting to make it mine
but i was trying half the time, maybe
find me when the grass grows long
or only when the wind blows strong over the day
i will be lousy then with bright rhyme
gotta fake it till you make it
but i was crying half the time, maybe
and i earned every burn i own
i was standing in a fireplace while looking for
stones to throw
falling in and out of sleep
though time it may travel, we won’t unravel
but i was trying half the time, maybe
not a leaf from the seeds i sow
i threw salt on heavy meadows so nothing
would ever grow
but i was crying half the time, maybe
maybe if the chords sound wrong
you’re thinking of another song
one about sun
one about sleeping in, not about weeping
i will try jumping sets of stairs with broken feet and something bleeding
but i was crying half the time, maybe
sabotage is an arrow, i am a bow
i have woken up in crowds of people looking past friends, i know
but i was crying half the time
gotta fake until i make it mine
now i will try in double time
