Talkin' to Myself
Well I've been talkin' to myself
Got a lot that's on my mind
And who better to confide in
Even if we're misaligned
I'm not sure where I am going
But I'm 'fraid I must confess
I ain't runnin' with the devil
But I ain't doing my best
You know men like me can never seem
To sit too still for long
Even with a pretty girl
And a handful of my songs
So I've been talking to myself
Bout the way I wish I was
Tryna think of better reasons
Than just so and just because
I've been talkin' to myself
About the girls I used to know
Tryna relive those confusions
Wishin' I knew what I know
But I'm thankful for the one
Somehow wound up here with me
I like talkin' to her better
Than I do talkin' to me
You know I don't understand 'em
I never have kept one for long
But they've given me good learnin'
And a handful of my songs
So I've been talking to myself
'Bout the way I should've been
Better learn and better listen
Or get woken up again
Mmm
Well I've been talkin' to myself
Bout the home that I once knew
And every time I got to visit
Seems to grow a size or two
All the boys have moved away
And my clarity has too
You gotta get out of this city
Before it gets ahold of you
You know times are changin' fast boys
And I think I'm changing too
Nothing here was meant to last
But there's nothin' we can do
So I've been talking to myself
Bout the way things outta be
Better get the best of livin'
Before it gets the best of me
Well I've been talkin' to myself
Swearing I'll clean up my mess
Practicing my conversations
And inaugural address
Talk is cheap, or so I'm told
It hurts more than them sticks and stones
But talkin' to myself is better
Than accepting I'm alone
Ya talking to myself
Is better
Got a lot that's on my mind
And who better to confide in
Even if we're misaligned
I'm not sure where I am going
But I'm 'fraid I must confess
I ain't runnin' with the devil
But I ain't doing my best
You know men like me can never seem
To sit too still for long
Even with a pretty girl
And a handful of my songs
So I've been talking to myself
Bout the way I wish I was
Tryna think of better reasons
Than just so and just because
I've been talkin' to myself
About the girls I used to know
Tryna relive those confusions
Wishin' I knew what I know
But I'm thankful for the one
Somehow wound up here with me
I like talkin' to her better
Than I do talkin' to me
You know I don't understand 'em
I never have kept one for long
But they've given me good learnin'
And a handful of my songs
So I've been talking to myself
'Bout the way I should've been
Better learn and better listen
Or get woken up again
Mmm
Well I've been talkin' to myself
Bout the home that I once knew
And every time I got to visit

You know times are changin' fast boys
And I think I'm changing too

Before it gets the best of me

It hurts more than them sticks and stones
But talkin' to myself is better
Than accepting I'm alone
Ya talking to myself
Is better
