the sun
peace
one love
remnants of last night still on your mind
but i wake up
the carpet is really uncomfortable
when you've been sitting on it for a long long time
someone please stop me from staying up so late
i think it's starting to effect how i think about you
(i can't stop thinking about you)
i get up and i walk across the lawn
i try to make sure i don't make eye contact with the neighbors
i never want to talk to, i never want to talk to them
i'm sure they think i'm a real asshole
but i push it out of my mind like a do a lot of other things
and i carry on
peace
one love
and i drive, and i drive
i make sure that the parking breaks not on this time
that caused a lot of trouble for everyone around you
last time, but it seems like that happens a lot
i'm at the gas station now
and there's a lot of people around
and it's makin me feel a bit uncomfortable to get out of my car
(i wish i could live my life in third person)
i'm self-conscious about every part of who i am
oh i don't needn't to feel this way when i've got nothin to hold me back
when has that ever been enough
(of who i am)
when has that ever been enough
(i am never happy with who i am)
when has that ever been enough
(i am never happy with who i am meant to be)
when has that ever been enough
(we are never happy with who we are meant to be)
peace
one love
i pull out in front of traffic
as my gps re-routes me across the town
it's gunna take 15 minutes if i don't slow down
this is kinda dangerous
driving when you're this tired
i think i daydreamed about half of the drive to get there
i can't remember a single thing
i don't think i thought about anythin
besides not having to pay money to get out of this town
why should i have to pay money to get away from everybody
oh baby
i have no baby
how'd i end up so off the road
can i help myself back to where i'm headed
i'm dreadin goin back to rome
when in rome i'm always afraid because
how'd i end up so off the road
can i help myself back to where i'm headed
i'm dreadin goin back to rome
when in rome i'm always afraid of love
