Go back, give it moment to sink in you're so far removed.
Just relax, cause things never change or "get better" you'll learn to forget and move on.
You've been a version of me un-invested following golden rules.
If time is progress then with my feet in the sand I'll let you fall behind.
Every man is an island/ I'm stranded screaming/ I'm sick of being alone/ i know things will get much better but that doesn't make me feel whole now.
There's me from 5 years ago draped up like a canopy, hung up on the "love of my life" strange how i don't really remember getting over it...
There's me from 2 weeks sunbleached out on the dock again, thinking of my future wife. I wonder if she feels just as cast away as I do.
If every man is an island then we're stranded screaming "we're sick of being alone." We know things will get much better but that doesn't make us feel whole now.
To think that I was over it.
I probably should get over it.

Some summer night when you came around.
You were with him but it was just a matter of time.
Spending the month with you now you sleep in my bed.
Now every night you tell you're mine.
You want my attention babe say it's all in my head.
But don't let it mean something when you're home late again.
If you take forever I've got time
Take your time
I'll be fine
I want this to mean something, I want you to care.
That's why I looked after you when he wasn't there.
I watched your grandma die, jumped off a cliff for you.
You told me you loved me and I thought it was true.
I'll say I'm done with you cuz you're breaking my head.
But you know that I'll wait for you so you can fool me again.
If you take forever I've got time
Take your time
I'll be fine
I've said it once I'll it
Again and again
I just wanna be your
Boyfriend

Wrapped in sunshine and holding it close to feel the warmth on your skin.
Born on a bayou at tender age of zero. Little did I know.
After growing up in a kennel I found this little pug would turn my world around. He had a destiny; I saw it in his eye, to meet the sky!
That's when I found out he was a cosmonaut, no need for a degree. He came from Louisiana all to achieve his dream. There's nowhere to go from here but up! And That's Literally
Training daily, I'm making his suite; a k9 helmet and little pupper boots.
We're close to takeoff, his tail shaking with joy.
He's a good boy.
Look up there! a pug cosmonaut, there's no need to worry. He ran from Louisiana all to achieve his dream. There's nowhere to go from here but up!
Now he's holding on tight leaving the atmosphere. His heart inside his throat! His goal right within his sights now. Flying to were? Who knows!
There's nowhere to go from here but up and that's literally!
When you're looking around up there just know I'm down here waiting for your descent.
And when you touch ground back here you'll have a home, warm in my home!
Welcome home Puggy Jackson
It's such a pleasure to have you here again. You look so tired take a nap by the fire place, and dream of space.

Visiting Hours

If you're trying to reach me, visiting hours been over since noon.
I found a crack in the hull of our life boat, an out of sync pulse forcing our harmonies out of tune.
I'm gonna move far away and never write home again.
If i was inclined to be tied down.
I'd leave the front door open a third time.
We'd throw back a glass of nostalgia, cheers to starting over!
Domestic seeds drown by experience.
I hope you move far away and never write home again

Happy Ending

As I grow up I'm starting to find that these cascading accessories are cutting their need for me.
So I return the feeling in a desperate attempt to reach out or branch out!
Now every morning's a day dream I won't remember!
Tell me what it is that made us so separated!
Cause it escapes me, it escapes me... But you were a landslide, you were a gold mine. You were so frustrating; I... see how you grew into me.
When I grow up I'll need a prescription to remind me these four walls are not a home that keep me safe from the fact that my whole world is changing leaving me behind.
When you look back at me would you say we made it? Someday you'll learn it's all a cycle, a process and some times...
It escapes me, it escapes me... but
You were a landslide, you were a gold mine. You were so frustrating; I... see how you grew into me.
