This is Where I Gave Up

You'd never know it to look at me here
But this is where I gave up
Surrounded by beige and succumbing to fear
This is where I gave up
Making excuses for watery eyes
This is where I gave up
Skipping the party and lengthy goodbyes
This is where I gave up
Tell my friends while
It may seem uncertain
I'm not in danger of hurting myself
I’ve just drained the last of this cup
Cause this is where I gave up
Wandered around til I finally found
This is where I gave up
Head to the storm clouds and starting to drown
This is where I gave up
Call to the bullpen, the starter is gassed
This is where I gave up
This chapter is over, the moment has passed
This is where I gave up
Tell my friends while
It may seem uncertain
I'm not in danger of hurting myself
I’ve just drained the last of this cup
Cause this is where I gave up
I gave up
Don't let it get you down
I gave up
Maybe I'll come around
I won't come around
Growing it in and just letting it go
This is where I gave up
Freeing to think I don't care if you know
This is where I gave up
Maybe a good time to drive off the road
This is where I gave up
Or keep it all in til I finally explode
Tell your friends while
I might draw the curtain
I'm not gone, maybe only flirting with something I could never hope to save up
Cause this is where I gave up

Get it Right

You want to be known but you don't want to be defined
To hear that you're pretty but really loved for your mind
I know cuz you told me again for the very last time
A feather floating to the ground is what you seek
A box tied up tall with a bow and no chance to peek
A couple more days to append to the following week
Did I
Get it right?
It's something to do with your childhood but you won't say
A hobby horse out on a playground on a fall day
A story you maybe told once but the memory strayed
Your mom and your dad and two sisters and then there was you
Alone toward the end when someone hadn't thought it through
You drifted off again; that's a thing you do
Did I
Get it right?
you think it's that simple but I think you're wrong
Why do you think we've been out here so long
Did I get it right?
You want to be known but you don't want to be defined
You're worried someone else might not like what they find
Go ahead and tell me I'm wrong one more time
Did I get it right?
