I was headed for Glenn St.
Engine running beneath my feet
You could take one look at me
You could see me try to breathe
Just out the window
Roll it down a crack
Let the smells fill up my nose
Let the sounds consume me
And I owe it all to you,
Every time I step inside head to toe, covered in glue
Every time I know I'll find that you'll know just what to do
Every time I step inside head to toe covered in glue

Sour Strawberries

I was approached by a man one time
He said that I need to get out of town
I don't know if I'm courageous or foolish
If I should run or if I should stand my ground
The way his words carried through the air
I watched 'em all as they flew on by
Over the heads of all the people
Up into the big blue sky
Don't cry when the strawberries sour
It doesn't always have to be this way
When you're struggling to feel empowered
'Cause all your colors have turned to gray
Don't cry when the strawberries sour
It doesn't always have to be this way
If you find yourself feeling empowered
Don't hang your head when you walk away
Counting lines in a parking lot
Always losing track before I reach the end
I watched every single thought I thought
Dance around and get swept up by the wind
You could have sworn it was the Fourth of July
Today the sky had so much to say
In the midst of the storm of colors
I found myself only seeing the gray
Don't cry when the strawberries sour
It doesn't always have to be this way
When you're struggling to feel empowered
'Cause all your colors have turned to gray
Don't cry when the strawberries sour
It doesn't always have to be this way
If you find yourself feeling empowered
Don't hang your head when you walk away

Motivation tends to elude me
Its a thunderstorm in the desert
But I bought these shiny presents
Went against my better judgment
Been feeling so lazy lately
Like a walking talking piece of shit
"But that's okay," she said
She said that's just the way it is
Boredom got the best of me again
Overstayed its welcome in my head
I don't wanna do anything at all
Smoke some weed and play my guitar
Are you gonna catch me if I fall?
A little man stood 10 feet tall
Lackadaisically he said to me, "you're in too deep"
Yeah, I'm in too deep
Boredom got the best of me again
Satisfaction is purely subjective
Success is a mystery
Staring blankly in a mirror
Another puzzle piece out of reach
So don't ask me any questions
I am only just a sheep
Boredom got the best of me again

So Complicated

A pair of earbuds in my ear despite no music playing
I was walking home at night doing some contemplating
Oh when and where did it get so complicated?
Oh how the hell did it get so complicated?
In my teenage years a few too many beers
Was too reliable a source of motivation
Oh when and where did it get so complicated?
Oh how the hell did it get so complicated?
Stars shine down on me but I don't know the constellations
Its like lighting from the sky when I'm struck with inspiration
Oh when and where did it get so complicated?
I thought to myself, maybe its not so complicated
