Before I hit the water, suspended in the air Reflecting on that moment What was I doing there But I'm carefree and I'm happy, it's all I really want In the hazy light of summer I was jumping off the dock And all of that is mine to decide To choose the next way forward Yeah I've got every right If this is where I'm headed, I think it's kind of nice It's getting easier all the time At some point in the sauna I was on the bottom bench I would wake up with a headache, I just didn't know it yet But I made peace with those old songs They're coming to a close I'm looking far ahead, I'd like to see where this all goes

I spent the weekend sleeping in It's all that I had really wanted We grabbed the lawn chairs that my mom left in the closet And you always like to plan it out That's something that I love about you We cleared off all the counters and removed all things of value And I haven't done this in a couple months There's nothing wrong with doing something fun And I haven't done this in a couple months At some point the sun had set Hey man, could you move your car We ran out from the sauna and we stumbled through the dark And I'm down for it if you are Yeah I guess it seems alright I guess it was the entire time

I'll melt into the floorboards Turn to dust and float away I sunk down in the couch and I was trying to think straight My face began to tingle and Atlanta's on TV I blinked and tried to process what I was seeing on the screen I fidget absentmindedly, walk slowly up the stairs Yeah I've got work tomorrow but I find it hard to care We glance and laugh together but I don't know what I said I can't hold back a smile as I collapse down on your bed And when it's going good, it's great And when it's not it's still not bad I'm done with lashing out at nothing, I'm done with trying to be sad I'll sleep in until eleven, I might like that

It was just a house, those days are gone It’s high time that we move on It wouldn’t last forever, some things can’t be sustained I’ll never step foot in that place again Some days I miss it, some days I don’t Am I afraid of getting old Am I afraid the best years of my life have passed me by Am I running out of time So goodbye I hope whoever here is next treats it right I don’t know what I wrote that song for All I know is I won’t sing it anymore All we have left are the memories and maybe it’s just as well I don’t want to let the past define myself And when we die We will die

The weather’s getting nicer out I’m home alone in my parents’ house I’m taking care of these two dogs For what it’s worth I don’t mind the job They wake me up at 6 am I check my phone and roll out of bed I let them out and go back to sleep I’m in no rush, I have all week The ice melting away, the days are getting longer This could take a while, all that I can do it wait And I really can’t complain, I slow march to the summer I’m closer every day And four or five years ago I started spending those weeks alone I’ve learned to enjoy it more since then I know I changed, I just don’t know when I’m on the carpet in the morning light I’m half awake around 8 or 9 A weight was lifted, I feel free There’s nothing wrong with who I’m going to be
