Nothing Gets Crossed Out

Well, the future's got me worried

Such awful thoughts

My head's a carousel of pictures

The spinning never stops

I just want someone to walk in front

And I'll follow the leader

Like when I fell under the weight

Of a schoolboy crush

Started carrying her books

And doing lots of drugs

I almost forgot who I was

But came to my senses

Now I'm trying to be assertive

I'm making plans

Wanna rise to the occasion

Yeah, meet all their demands

But all I do is just lay in bed

And hide under the covers

Yeah, I know I should be brave

But I'm just too afraid

Of all this change

And it's to hard to focus

Through all this doubt

I keep making this 'To Do' list

But nothing gets crossed out

Working on the record seems pointless now

When the world ends, who's gonna hear it?

Well, I'm trying to take some comfort

In written words

Yeah, Tim, I heard your album

It's better than good

When you get off tour, I think we should

Hang and blackout together

'Cause I've been feeling sentimental

For days gone by

All those summers singing, drinking

Laughing, wasting our time

Remember all those songs and the way we smiled

In those basements made of music

But now I've got to crawl

To get anywhere at all

I'm not as strong as I thought

So when I'm lost in a crowd

I hope that you'll pick me out

How I long to be found

The grass grew high, I laid down

Now I wait for a hand

To lift me up, help me stand

I've been laying so low

Don't wanna lay here no more

Don't wanna lay here no more

Don't wanna lay here no more

Don't wanna lay here no more

No more, more

But if everything that happens

Is supposed to be

And it's all predetermined

Can't change your destiny

I guess, I'll just keep moving, someday, maybe

I'll get to where I'm going
