Everything is Backwards

[Intro]

All the time I spent on this should have gone straight out to you

Why the hell I even try, why'd I fall in love with you

Fall in love with you

Fall in love

Fall in love

Fall in love with you


[Verse]

You'll never know me like I know myself

But then again I never knew myself

I stumbled onto banisters to drink from off a higher shelf

Cymbals ringing hit it with my head I think I need your help

I'm all alone eating off this three-piece chicken meal

High enough to think i'm in a weed leaf picking fields

If everything was backwards then maybe we'd be kicking still

If I roll this backwoods would I still even fucking feel

Who are you tell me what's been in my bones

You think you seeing through me, I'm just trynna hold my own

See the rain drops falling on my front porch poem

You ask if i'm really so happy what have my songs shown

And I think maybe you're right, I've been counting off the calendars

Measuring success and all your love with shitty calipers

The latter quantifiable like firing off calibers

No global isometric values measure up to having her

And sometimes it might seem I don't care too much

But i'm fighting inside with the feelings you brush

When your hair falls and lips part i'm lost in the rush

A will made of iron still broken by rust

Complacency my biggest fucking enemy

Like really what's the difference between happiness and entropy

Enveloping myself in all the chaos God has sent for me

I tried so hard to finish this but i'm lacking the energy
