Forest

Sometimes I'm a forest
Sometimes I'm a lake
Sometimes when you bend things too far back enough
They've got nothing to do but break

Sometimes it is sunny
Others dusted in fog
Sometimes when the pegs too square and the hearts too bare
It's hard to feel like you belong

I get nervous on the phone
(The phone, the the phone)
I get nervous while alone

I'm supposed to be practicing
'Cuz I wanna get better
But being actively bad at something
Makes it hard to be a go-getter

I get nervous on the phone
(The phone, the the phone)
Often nervous while alone

Maybe we can go halfsies in the backseat
Maybe hold hands inside the taxi
You don't have to tell me what you're feeling
Actually I find it more appealing
When we play a game of cat and mouse
Let's buy a house
Let's just knit sweaters till we die
Let's be young and let's be right
I'll be your day you be my

(Night, Night, Night)

I can be doubtful
No doubt can be cruel
But seeing the world through loving eyes
Is the only thing I want to do

I'd like to be forgiving
Honest and complete
I'd like to give the world my heart
Or at least to start, publish some of my poetry

I get nervous on the phone
(The phone, the the phone)
Often nervous while alone

I'm an idealist
Or so they say
When I let my mind take the backseat
My songs get better everyday

I try to deduce you
My feelings are muddled and it's senseless
My body's a temple and it's rentless
I don't break I'm made of bent bricks

I get nervous on the phone
(The phone, the the phone)
Often nervous while alone

Maybe we can go halfsies in the backseat
Maybe hold hands inside the taxi
You don't have to tell me what you're feeling
Actually I find it more appealing
When we play a game of cat and mouse
Let's buy a house
Let's just knit sweaters till we die
Let's be young and let's be right
I'll be your day you be my

(Night, Night, Night)

I'm in college
(Community)
Avoiding conflict
(Impunity)
Fascination
(Excuse me)
Your motivation is to see through me

Sometimes I'm a mountain
Sometimes I'm the valley
But in the cracks beneath the peaks
