lirik lagu 241 – elephant jake
i worry about
old times
and
other people’s hard work
but matt says
“it was worth it in the moment”
and i take comfort in that
lying awake, i wait for motivation
body and mind disagree
on more than one occasion
i saw an old friend
he felt better again
or so he said
but he’s not home here
i saw the stories
and photographs agreeing
“it’s not alright” repeating
don’t believe it
falling in love with coffee girls after a black eye in philly
and i drove all the way back home
i saw an old friend
and he misses his life a year ago
and he misses his girl and he says
“everybody’s lonesome.”
and i agree
don’t believe it
don’t believe it
don’t believe myself, i’m falling in love
with sleeping on unfamiliar floors
what if i
sit aside
and defy
suicide?
you decide
what if i
sit aside
and defy
suicide?
you decide
don’t believe myself, i’m falling in love
with coffee girls after a black eye in philly
and matt says “it was worth it in the moment.”
and i suppose that i will choose to see the comfort in that
