about

Half love song, half lamentation / ode to anxiety

lyrics

Of course I want you
After everything it makes perfect sense....

Why can’t love be like in my dream
Why don’t you show up when i want you to
Why can’t it always be June
Why can’t it be like that one time
Why do i
Why do i have to try
Love should be effortless shouldn’t it
Or was it ever as easy as i played it back in my mind
I talk about love like i felt it
Really it’s just a container for my thoughts
It’s something to throw my loneliness and fears into
And my thoughts of you and touching you

I worry there’s something i could do better
Or maybe i just worry

Worry is like water
Trying to get to the lowest point
Filling any container
Always drawn to the lowest point
Always drawn to the lowest point
And if displaced it takes the same weight
Elsewhere
Oh no no no
I can’t believe it doesn’t go away
Does it evaporate
Will it ever evaporate
Or is it mine forever
Of course, of course, of course
