Anthony

 

I see you there laying with your head in the clouds and your feet on the ground

you were never good at small talk but I like the way you walk away from everything that's troubling you

 

but I know that you're tired of playing by the rules of someone else

 

hey there's a lot I could say about you, but I'll keep it to myself, I'll keep it to myself

hey there's something that's cool about you, how you keep it to yourself, you keep it to yourself

but what are you hiding from?

hey there's a lot I could say about you, but I'll keep it to myself, I'll keep it to myself

 

A couple days out now tryna figure out how everything changes

you quietly sit back as time flies

 

but I know that you're tired of playing by the rules of someone else

 

hey there's a lot I could say about you, but I'll keep it to myself, I'll keep it to myself

hey there's something that's cool about you, how you keep it to yourself, you keep it to yourself,

 

just stop running there’s a whole world out there waiting for you

 

hey there's a lot I could say about you, but I'll keep it to myself, I'll keep it to myself

hey there's something that's cool about you, how you keep it to yourself, you keep it to yourself

but what are you hiding from?

hey there's a lot I could say about you, but I'll keep it to myself, I'll keep it to myself

Two Years Ago

 

your back’s bent on a park bench

humming songs stuck in your head

you forgot the name of them long ago

fix upon your eyes again

full of things you could’ve said

but the ice in them melted long ago

 

you say you’d take it all back

words showered in lilac

but you can’t even take me home

 

we’re drowning in two years ago

days locked in your shadow

and if you changed I think I’d know

but no, no, no

 

my legs crossed on a park bench

nose is filling with your scent

the same one I remember from long ago

Suddenly it feels like home

you rub your eyes and scratch your nose

there had to be a reason I let go

 

you say you’d take it all back

words showered in lilac

but you can’t even take me home

 

we’re drowning in two years ago

days locked in your shadow

and if you changed I think I’d know

but no, no, no

 

we’re drowning in two years ago

days locked in your shadow

and if you changed I think I’d know

but no, no, no

 

don’t say you regret it

don’t look so pathetic

I know you’re only here to ease your mind

and don’t say that you bet it’d get better if I let it

please, I gave you so much time

 

I’m drowning in two years ago

days hidden in my shadow

and if you changed

if you changed

if you changed

 

We’re drowning in two years ago

days locked in your shadow

and if you changed I think I’d know

 

We’re drowning in two years ago

days locked in your shadow

and if you changed I think I’d know

but no, no, no

no, no, no

no, no, no

Work This Out

 

when I left you I was over it

convinced myself that I was done

I never thought we’d be alone again

now I’m thinking I should run to you

 

If I’m being honest

I just can’t forget

 

late nights when you’d call me just to see what’s on my mind

dancing in the backyard watch the sun set in your eyes

and I know I was the one that left you to read between the lines

but we’re getting older now

maybe we could work this out

 

when we’re talking it’s so comfortable

like a daydream brought to life

it doesn’t seem like any time has passed at all

we should give this another try

 

come on be honest

how could you forget

 

late nights when you’d call me just to see what’s on my mind

dancing in the backyard watch the sun set in your eyes

and I know I was the one that left you to read between the lines

but we’re getting older now

maybe we could work this out

 

if I would’ve known back then that you’d still be around

I would’ve pulled you in instead of taking myself out

if I would’ve known back then that you’d still be around

I would’ve pulled you in instead of taking myself out

 

late nights when you’d call me just to see what’s on my mind

dancing in the backyard watch the sun set in your eyes

and I know I was the one that left you to read between the lines

but we’re getting older now

maybe we could work this out

 

late nights when you’d call me just to see what’s on my mind

maybe we could work this out
