lyrics

So I’m finally moving on
Marks and minds have been set
On curbing my daily inspection to no more than 16 regrets

19 years and a VHS
Tape my guts to my soul
So they won’t spill or spin out of remote control

And maybe I’m wasting my youth
Safe and sober and showered
With postcards and prescribed viewpoints as to how to best count the hours

I still just smile at girls I like
For once it’s easy to be genuine
But maybe I should start pulling pigtails or pushing in the lunch line

And I still listen to Titus
On the way home from reading from Philemon
An old testament to a perfectly balanced confusion

Still the unwilling scientist
Social milieux and observations
But maybe I should start talking to people again

So I’m finally out
I’m finally sailing
I’m fine, I really think I’m fine
At last

And the last thing I would ever do is lie to you.

Like a minivan it hit me that hardly anything ever hits me dead on
It’s a process, the way it’s processed takes time before you get to the horizon
If everyone is in on it, I’d have to be in on it too
So now I’m just hoping for something that looks vaguely like hope to break through.

And the last thing I would ever do is lie to you.
