Lyrics From Instagram LIVE, TikTok Video & Live Performance
[Verse 1]
I'm the tall glass of water you lost in your kitchen
I'm casually cruel like a senior prediction
Most likely to leave at the sign of a fork in the road
You looked just like your father as the news was delivered
Cut a hole in my heart that bled into my liver
I miss being alone when it didn't mean being alone
[Verse 2]
And if love was contagious, I might be immune to it
Pain's like cold water, your brain just gets used to it
I try to keep swimming and keep Dad's good word in my [heart/mouth]
[But/Wеll,] they're fighting like dogs in thе town across the river
Over a brand-new crosswalk that won't matter come winter
[Oh/Lord,/And] sometimes folks just need something to be angry about
What you angry about?
[Chorus]
I ain't bitter 'bout much these days
In some ways, I'm damn lucky to be here
Where the miners stayed in the good old days
Yes, real men used to sleep here
[By/And,] those roadside graves [where/that] my friends still lay in
I walk by just to weep here
They say killing time ain't a homicide
But a prayer for a leap year
[Post-Chorus]
Oh
[Instrumental Break: Acoustic Guitar]
[Verse 3]
I'm the roach in your drawer, I lived here long before you
I'm the rumble of war, it gets hard to ignore you
Well, love, sometimes folks just need something they can scream at
Scream at
I'm the hills in the distance, you see me, can't be me
You need me in half, Lord, I need you completely
Oh, sometimes folks just need something to scream at
[Chorus]
I ain't bitter 'bout much these days
In some ways, I'm damn lucky to be here
Where the miners stayed in the good old days
Yes, real men used to sleep here
[By/And,] those roadside graves [where/that] my friends still lay in
I walk by just to weep here
They say killing time ain't a homicide
But a prayer for a leap year
[Post-Chorus]
They say killing time ain't a homicide
But a prayer for a leap year
Ooh
[Instrumental Break: Acoustic Guitar]
[Outro]
I'm a college kid with my windows down
I'm an astronaut, you're the moon
I stare at you, I sing to you
I'm in [Bordertown?], I'm on [?] ground
I'm a college kid with my windows down
I'm an astronaut, you're the moon
I sing to you, I scream at you
I'll stare at you, I'll sting at you
