I used to be golden
I used to be evergreen
Now I’m just tired
I’m quick to get over things
I’ve been so restless when I wake up
I fall right back into sleep
It’s like my mind controls my body
Pulls me back down into dreaming
Find myself inside the deep end
Of my parents’ pool
Floating on the surface
I can pick up every word
I used to be joyful
A childlike echo down a hallway
Thought I needed nothing
I need more than sunshine to get me up on my feet
I’ve been so restless when I wake up
I fall right back into sleep
It’s like my mind controls my body
Pulls me back down into dreaming
Find myself inside the deep end
Of my parents’ pool
Floating on the surface
I can pick up every word
Find myself inside the deep end
Of my parents’ pool
Floating on the surface
I can pick up every word

If You Get Lonely
Meet me somewhere between Marfa, Texas and Albuquerque If you’re down on your luck Buy a lottery ticket Then forget about it in your glove box I bet you’re …
Lasso
If I could lasso you I’d do it from the sky I’d wait till half past noon When the sun shines, sunshine If I could lasso you I’d do it from the clouds …
Michael
You said that you were getting better But we both know you’re skinnier than ever And we talked all through the dinner But not about how you’re getting sicker …
