Float

It was sunny
On my porch and
All around me
I saw my flowerbeds were dry

What a surprise

I tend to plant seeds
And then neglect them
They'd be so pretty
If my ideas could stay alive

Well I might thrive

They say some things
Happen for a reason I guess?

I'm the reason for my distress
Broken battered by my own fist
I attest, no I don't miss
Consistency, that's my business
Civil war raging in my own mind
Am I sweet? Tell me, am I unkind?
Oh gravity, silly landline
Why won't you let me float
Up, up, and away?

He was charming
And vindictive
How could I resist
This perfect fairytale of mine?

What a great guy

I tend to start things
That I can't finish
I cut the wrong strings
And end up falling from the sky

To save my own life

They say some things
Are too good to be true I guess?

I'm the reason for my distress
Broken battered by my own fist
I attest, no I don't miss
Consistency, that's my business
Civil war raging in my own mind
Am I sweet? Tell me, am I unkind?
Oh gravity, silly landline
Why won't you let me float
Up, up, and away?

Oh yeah

Oh I just wanna float
Up, up and away

Now I'm lyin'
In my bed and
Equivocating
I must convince myself I'm fine
To get some shut eye

Well I'm trying
But I admit
I'd rather submit
To my neurosis for the night

It's not such a bad time
Oh no

They say some things
Never change oh yeah

I guess I'll always be the same
Oh no
But I just wanna float

Up Up Up Up Up Up...
