lyrics

i act like i have you but i can feel you slipping away
i crossed rivers and borders and you stood still
maybe i'll rewrite this again in 6 months or maybe i'll grow out of it
i keep talking about what happened in Nebraska 
but i'm sure you only think of the snow in California
i still think about that night sometimes but those are the days i wish i never left town
should i talk about the way stars poured out of your eyes or the how my lungs collapsed when i heard your voice call my name
can i tell you about the way you brought me back to life three times
should i talk about the way i can turn my walls into nebulas or how i reach for you when i'm on the edge of sleep
the world spins fast for plans you've made months in advance
while i get dizzy looking at the bar floor
i asked god for a way out and a man handed me a bottle of pills and wished me luck
told me this isn't an escape it's only a distraction
my body is an empty shell now but
you won't hear the ocean in me
