you cut your hair
for the warm months coming up
you said you're going back
to where you were from once
you said
"i'll see ya when i see ya"
you got your number in my phone
i said
"yeah, see ya when i see ya"
we both know that means i won't
well it all seems
like the start of something new
stayed up all week
but it feels so strange to you
and you call me
just to tell me
that your hometown's not the same
all your first dates and your birthdays
have all been washed away
you miss those afternoons
sunday mornings
waking up to watch cartoons
there's always room for you
there's always space
i'll make sure
that you fit in too
i'll make sure that you fit in too
i'll make sure that you fit in too
i'll make sure that you always fit in too
half awake
with the moon laying by the stars
miles to say
on the long walk back to your car

Place to Start

loose tooth afternoon
colored drapes and little clues
wondering if everyone can see
climb into the car
you swear it's not too far
but it's relative, you don't have to agree
advice in little notes
carved in trees, side of the road
details in a static covered screen
power line and kitchen twine
birthday candle, kerosene
a lifeboat shaken by the waves
cause i am less
every day
in a parking lot
you told me your mistake
and that's a good place to start
cause where you go is where you are
gift shop memories
pictures to look to fondly on
blurry shapes and out of fashion clothes
everywhere you look, there's signs of what you took
and everyone's got someone that's moved on
the things i thought i knew
laid awake and thought of you
city stretched beneath the great beyond
hurry to and coming from
important things that never was
i wish i had the patience you deserved
cause i am less
every day
in a parking lot
you just laughed and drove away
and that's a good place to start
cause where you go is where you are
so right away
let's talk it out
the things you say
but not out loud
i wanna see through different eyes
i wanna know
i can't decide
and it's a long way back coming from

Looking Back

last place running
high school graduation
in a back seat conversation
now you're 10 years down the line
fast food drive thru
weekend in the city
when you stayed out all night with me
in the morning we were high
cause i don't know what the future holds
& i'm too afraid to ask
picked up your first college tee
but you never took a class
lookin' back
this next album
man they'll really all see
everyone's new envy
i'll be running town to town
fast in your lane
weekends in the golden gate
desert to a mountain scape
my little flower child
cause i don't know what the future holds
& i'm too afraid to ask
picked up your first college tee
but you never took a class
lookin' back

Easy Years

I got just got here way too soon
coffee cups and smelling old perfume
silence in an already quiet room
like they found out what they're up against
all at once
and so i'll make a mental note
everyone was moving nice and slow
coming down, the rain clings to your coat
like the details won't let go either
easy years got complicated
locked inside your room
finding bottles, labels ripped off
there's no signs of you
because you never go out
let your hair just grow out
difference of opinion
i won't get involved
it was never easy sitting in here thinking
that's not really what you want
well the weather's getting cold
and you don't laugh at any joke
i think it's time you said you're fine
tried to be a good man
fell into the quicksand
reaching out for your hand
but you just drag us down
easy years got complicated
locked inside your room
finding bottles, labels ripped off
there's no signs of you
always on the short term
sweetness in the soft burn
sink into the couch now
everyone was gone
it was never easy sitting in here thinking
that's not really what you want
