Written as I wanted to explore the story writing element of music.
Woke up and wanted to stay in bed/the sun hurt my eyes/my mind was rehearsing lines/that my heart chose to ignore the night before/when the lights were off/trying to make sense of my emotions/why did I even wake up for another ax to grind/
I ain’t different I put my pants on one leg at a time/just like everyone else/but our stories take different courses/sometimes the paths split and will intertwine again/some people wonder what life must be after death/but they can’t focus on the present/
To bottle things up until things explode/is my natural tendency/trying to hold it all together/so others only see/what I choose to share/try to examine my heart/but I choose not to let you in/because I don’t want to hurt so deep again so soon/
I don’t want to be closed off any longer/I want to make my life an open book/every struggle real life/trying to make it through the day/trying to be real with myself/not always knowing how I feel/in the moments/that make me feel afraid/
