Absolutely

My fingers wanna touch you,

But my head wants to question,

If you wanna be touched,

Would I break the rules?

Cause I know we’re just friends

But I know we don’t act like friends sometimes

When we’re alone,

And we’re talking, like forever is tomorrow

I’m only one foot away from you,

But I wanna be so much closer, and I

Don’t know what to say

Don’t know what to do

I’m absolutely crazy

Don’t know what to say

Don’t know what to do

This teenage song about love

Plays in my head, all day long,

I’m absolutely crazy, about you.

I scribble and I backspace,

And I talk myself in circles,

But you listen and make eye contact

The same.

We’re almost the same person,

I swear it’s scary sometimes,

To hear the things I wanna hear

Would be a dream come true, cause I

Don’t know what to say

Don’t know what to do

I’m absolutely crazy

Don’t know what to say

Don’t know what to do

This teenage song about love

Plays in my head, all day long,

I’m absolutely crazy, about you.

Uh, huh, uh huh huh.

Take my hand, and we’ll run anywhere

I’m not sure what I am to you,

But you could be everything to me, but I

Don’t know what to say

Don’t know what to do

I’m absolutely crazy

Don’t know what to say

Don’t know what to do

This teenage song about love

Plays in my head, all day long,

I’m absolutely crazy, about you.

 

 

Uh, huh, huh.

I’m absolutely, positively,

Unobjectifically, irrevocably,

absolutely crazy,

about you.

My fingers wanna touch you,

But my head wants to question…

I’m only one foot away from you,

But I wanna be so much closer…

Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely crazy,

About you.

Breakable Bones

I know I’m scared of a shadow

That could be hiding in the light

And everyday I’m pretending

That I believe that I’ll survive.

But sometimes in the dark

I admit it to myself

That fear is my problem,

I’m just afraid of getting help.

 

Cross the street with my eyes closed,

The simple decision, what I want is worth being afraid of.

 

Fragile, and small,

I am, but this journey is long,

Breakable bones,

I have,

But safety shouldn’t be paralyzing.

Fragile, and small, I am,

But these breakable bones might not be

As weak as we may think.

 

Daylight gets wasted everyday

By skeletons standing in our place

And every night they are sleeping

Dreaming of being awake.

But sometimes even piles of people

Playing dead out of defaulted fear

Come out of the shells they make

And find themselves out there.

 

Cross the street with my eyes closed,

The simple decision, what I want is worth being afraid of.

 

Fragile, and small,

I am, but this journey is long,

Breakable bones,

I have,

But safety shouldn’t be paralyzing.

Fragile, and small, I am,

But these breakable bones might not be

As weak as we may think.

 

In through your nose, out through your mouth,

Breathing is facing your worst fears.

In through your nose, out through your mouth,

Calming your trembling, calming yourself.

 

Cross the street with my eyes closed,

The simple decision, what I want is worth being afraid of.

 

Fragile, and small,

I am, but this journey is long,

Breakable bones,

I have,

But safety shouldn’t be paralyzing.

Fragile, and small, I am,

But these breakable bones might not be

As weak as we may think.

Excuses, Excuses, Excuses

I’ve chewed my lips apart

So now they won’t hold back

Any words they want

Come stumbling out of them

You said you didn’t need to hear it

But I know you needed my goodbye

My goodbye.

You said you didn’t mean it

But I know you never lie,

Never lie.



You’ve taken your weaknesses and let them become home

A secret location to hide from the world

Excuses, excuses, excuses,

For being alone.



You’ve torn your head apart

So now it won’t hold anything real

Anything your heart wants

Doesn’t matter anymore

You said you never wanna hear it

But I know what you meant

I know what you meant

You said you’d never regret staying,

But you had already left,

Already left



You’ve taken your weaknesses and let them become home

A secret location to hide from the world

Excuses, excuses, excuses,

For being alone.



Woah, I know it’s hard to put your heart in your mouth

Forget what they said and trust

Woah, I know it’s hard to put your heart in your mouth

And act on what it wants, cause people hurt and wound you.

Woah, I know it’s hard to put your heart in your mouth,

But speaking’s much easier, once you’ve swallowed it down.



You’ve taken your weaknesses and let them become home

A secret location to hide from the world

Excuses, excuses, excuses,

For being alone.



I’ve chewed my lips apart..

So now they won’t hold back…

Any words they want,

Just come stumbling out of them.

I know, it’s hard,

Excuses, excuses,

I know, it’s hard,

Excuses, excuses, excuses,

I know, it’s hard.
