2.
i saw you driving your car home i didn't know where i should go hanging talking with my friends about how it used to be you know the boys have got my back you know they're always up for that smoke a swisher, maybe 2 stay up late i've got nothing to do
3.
i haven’t felt like myself simply put i’m looking for another way out simply put. it’s not the same as i recall this anxiousness pervades it all a slice of peace amidst the dark i’m afraid i’ve missed the mark i've played the cards i've been dealt simply put now they have called my bluff, no doubt simply put it’s not the same as i recall this anxiousness pervades it all a slice of peace amidst the dark i’m afraid i’ve missed the mark
4.
i filled an ashtray thinking of you now that its over tell me what to do what was i thinking, overwhelmed within my skull what we were doing, why on earth did that go on so long so long so long i took the long way thinking about you plug in the aux cord - turn on my tunes and i don’t care what they say about me sometimes in life, you gotta be a bit silly silly silly to be honest i can’t tell what’s real to be honest i don’t know what to feel we’ll never be again it feels so surreal i wish i felt sentimental about this whole ordeal
5.
let’s get together before you’re married just me you and the boys, we’ll have a little fun bet on the horses and play the slots have a cigarette and laugh a lot let’s get together before you’re married sit by the fire and have a nice chat look at each other and remember what’s changing fast what’s changing fast what’s changing fast let’s get together before you’re married jump in my whip , we’ll figure something out drive to the country and run around crack a bad joke while we lay on the ground let’s get together before you’re married sit by the fire and have a nice chat look at at each other and remember what’s changing fast what’s changing fast what’s changing fast

Bruised Rib 02:52
i’m looking for somehow but i want you to know i bruised my rib while waiting for this dense fog to go i’m sure it’s up hill can’t i change my mind? i’m dealing with these feelings and i don’t think i’m fine no i don’t think i’m fine a whole summer of no idea i forgot how to pray endless scrolling and giving in waiting for the end of the day friend’s face to friend’s face please come by i need help maybe what i don’t understand really what i need is myself really what i need is myself
7.
do you ever change your mind? after you have thought about it? if we could, i’m sure we would make things a little different than they were before did i really know you? to be honest i doubt it did i really know you to be honest i kind of doubt it hey i thought that we were something like we were more than a thing i guess that we were thinking different i turned around and you were missing only think about yourself like i'm right and you need all the attention like limelight i'm confused because you caught me for my type but you proved me wrong now i'm like do we ever really talk about it do we ever really talk about it do we ever really talk about it do we ever really talk about it did we ever really talk about it did we ever really talk about it did we ever really talk about it did we ever really talk about it do we ever really talk about it do we ever really talk about it do we ever really talk about it do we ever really talk about it did we ever really talk about it did we ever really talk about it did we ever really talk about it did we ever really talk about it
8.
as clear as the bright night sky all alone on a highway drive to find you in the front of my car, us together for a time and even as the night flies by we’ll talk about our tiny lives and dream up all the ways to find an empty spot to rest our minds it’s early yeah i know it is my heats broken just give it 5 you tell me the powers out hope it stays that way lets buy some time its early, i guess ill drive its a standard, you’ll have to try but i guess its not so bad i am just glad that - it’s going well
9.
i knew i could trust you after all that you did but i still don’t trust you it’s hard to submit 24 years of calling your name i want to continue am i’m drifting away wasn't quite enough of my better self can you tell me what it's gonna cost? what it's gonna cost never been enough of my better self can you tell me what it's gonna cost? what it's gonna cost

will you welcome me back home? did you promise to make me whole? you are the one i trust with my soul trust with my soul trust with my soul pull me from corners i can forgo is this a fortune, losing control? you are the one i trust with my soul trust with my soul trust with my soul maybe i'm the one with the foggy mind maybe it's me who's changing i should turn around, and walk right back admit that i'm weak and failing

about

this album was made during the most anxious/depressing season of my whole life. i wrote a lot about mental illness and dealing that kind of sickness.

many of the songs are about a hard break-up, adjusting to friends getting married, trying to understand my faith in Christ and to truly trust in him. these songs are just about messing around with friends, taking things lightly and experiencing God's love
