and I just fell in the deep end,
like a lush without her weekend
but I wrote this for you kid.
it's not what I wanted, I need it.
but man its a long trip,
from all the crazy things I've seen in this world
I'm blessed, I guess.
but what if I was a secret,
and you couldn't keep it?
and I swear I saw something good in your eyes
before.
and if I sang it in the right key
and I asked you politely for you to find a way home.
I find it difficult to sleep when all the walls, they just
seem to speak to me.
it's kind of funny that I laugh because my heart's so
f*cked up
I can barely stand the
sights and sounds of the cars outside,
the red and greens on the traffic lights
that the only thing I got is this,
the only thing I want is this...
memories that make me smile,
a girl to stand there so she can admire the way
I can never ever really keep my hands to myself.
but the alcohol it taste so sweet,
when its mixed with lies and defeat of
all the battles I lost and lost again.
but what if I was a secret,
and you couldn't keep it?
and I swear I saw something pretty in your eyes
before.
and if I sang it in the right key
and I asked you politely for you to find a way home.
but what if you were the secret,
and I didn't see it
and I swear to god, I wish these thoughts of mine
could create the sunshine
as beautiful as your eyes
I'd paint this night sky.
and it's not like you need this,
I just wanted you to see it
tonight.
