Motions

When fall hits
I’ll shed my leaves
And everybody will see
My bones are barely carrying me
And I know
We don’t talk the way we used to
I think it has a lot to do
With me getting used to you
And all the motions of everything
I want to feel emotions the way I did when it was, “uck everything, I’m seventeen

Oh, oh
I found another bad side of myself
So I’ll wrestle it back down to hell
And oh, oh
I know it’s not polite to say how I feel
So I’ll bite my tongue and walk it off

And I’ll repeat
Whatever mantras I need
To stay alive
Try to make something
Of all the motions of you and me
I wanna be the ocean and make you think, fuck everything, you’re seventeen

And oh, oh
I found another bad side of myself
So I’ll wrestle it back down to hell
And oh, oh
I know it’s not polite to say how I feel
So I’ll bite my tongue and walk it off

And I could lay here
For the rest of my life
Alone on this couch, but would it be right?
Would I feel right?

And oh, oh
I found another bad side of myself
So I’ll wrestle it back down to hell
And oh, oh
I know it’s not polite to say how I feel
So I’ll bite my tongue and walk it off
Oh, I’ll bite my tongue and walk it off
