From The Album "Carrier Pigeon" (2024)
Verse 1
I Got One Shoe On My Feet
I Told My Friends I'd Go To The Parade But Waited Far Too Long To Leave
I Met A Boy Last Week
And Then I Told Him That I Liked Him, He Said That Was Pretty Bold Of Me, Now
Pre-Chorus 1
Isn't It, Isn't It The Way Things Always Go For Me?
Honesty, Gets Misconstrued And Met With Some Weird Apathy
Chorus
And Now I'm Sitting On The Couch With One Foot Stuck In My Mouth
And The Rest Of Me Is Stuck Inside My Head
And I'm Just Trying To Figure Out The Real Way Things All Went Down
And Not The Way I Wanted It Instead
Verse 2
And I Can't Comprehend
That When It Happens In The Movies All Thе Actors Get A Second Chance
And Thе Audience All Cheers
But In Real Life When You Show Your Cards, What You Thought Was Magic Disappears, Now
Pre-Chorus 2
Isn't It, Isn't It Exactly What Has Happened Here?
Transparency Got Confused
Viewed Like Some Narcissistic Party Trick But No One's Even Watching It
Chorus
And Now I'm Sitting On The Couch With One Foot Stuck In My Mouth
And The Rest Of Me Is Stuck Inside My Head
And I'm Just Trying To Figure Out The Real Way Things All Went Down
And Not The Way I Wanted It Instead
Instead
Bridge
I Wrote A Letter On A Plane
It Said, "I Miss You" And, "What's Your Middle Name?"
I Tore It Up And I Threw It Away
I Threw It Away
And I Took A Ferry The Very Next Day
To A Small Island Off The Coast Of L.a.
And Everyone There Knew Me By My Fake Name
By My Fake Name
(I Don't Know You But I'd Like To)
(I Don't Know You But I'd Like To)
'Cause I Don't Do Too Much Talking Anymore
That Doesn't Lead To Me Saying Sorry Or Getting Ignored
And Heaven Knows I'm Getting Pretty Bored, I'm Getting Pretty Bored
And I Don't Have Many Friends Anymore
Who Don't Seem To View Me Like Some Pawn On Chess Board
Heaven Knows I'm Getting Pretty Bored, I'm Getting Pretty Bored
Chorus
And Now I'm Sitting On The Couch With One Foot Stuck In My Mouth
And The Rest Of Me Is Stuck Inside My Head
And I'm Just Trying To Figure Out The Real Way Things All Went Down
And Not The Way I Wanted It Instead
