Sometimes I feel like a 40 year old in a teenage mind
I’m wise but act like a child
Sometimes I feel like I’m stuck in a world that I don’t like
either drifting apart or marching for my life
I’m trying to be somebody
in a sea of bodies treading water
I watch from underneath
I’m watching from a balcony
Taking pictures silently
Hoping that no one can see or hear me
I’m on the balcony
You cant see me
Sometimes I feel like I’m writing words that
Aren’t mine
They came from the sky or somebody else way up high
Sometimes I feel like I’m looking back on my life like I just died
Or like I’m telling my daughter it’ll all be alright
I’m trying to be somebody
in a sea of bodies treading water
I watch from underneath
I’m watching from the mezzanine
Taking pictures of what they can’t see
I’m a silent memory making machine
I try to light up the room
but my piano’s out of tune
And I’m far too shy to get up and make a move
saw it live when it came out and just remembered it today cause i had to yell "you can't maaaaake love staaaaayyyeeeyyaaayyyy do what you can to hold it in plaaaeeeeaaacee" sh3lby
