lyrics

I thought from the get-go
That if I grew up I'd be an old soul
I'd figure out the crazy way the world goes
wrap it up and put it in a song
though I’m singing in a coffee shop
I’ll be serving rhymes till the last drop
cause In my head a stadium yells “don’t stop”

every word I say they sing along


Hey, Everybody look at me!
I'm in the corner singing all my insecurities Maybe one day read about them in a magazine Hey, In my head I know everybody's screaming They can't help what my song has them feeling They'll be here when they finished quarantining Stage lights, sunscreening
Wide awake
I keep dreaming

I don't think I'll get far
By losing sleep wishing on a lucky star
That I could pay my rent with an old guitar
a couple words and calling it a song
I know that I should get some sleep
Cause I'll be making money when I'm counting sheep
Swimming in tequila, hanging with Bo-peep
Floating as the melody goes on 


Chorus

I'm a drop the lake
Looking for the ocean
Waiting on a break
That's already been broken
I'm an honest fake
working on the notion
I could spend all-day
thinking cause


anything you can dream I can dream better
Cause all of my lyrics are changing the weather
I float like a butterfly sting like as a feather

If you want more you can read my newsletter
The papers will write of my mental declining
I'll plan a comeback while the ink is still drying
won't enter a room if I don't like that lighting
I'll pay someone else to do all of my writing

Chorus
