Afternoons (emory remix)

The news that you told me is burning a hole in my skull
One I don't think I can cover up
I can't keep waiting through seasons for Christmas to come
And other annual occasions

Put anything that I can and I want to on pause
Cause actions in any capacity just feel like gauze on the wound

The root of the problem is everything I've ever done
The sum of all my interactions
Lately I've lost track of what I like doing for fun
With all of my conflicting motives

Maybe distraction is healthy, I'm taking back power
Truthfully I just feel lazy when I'm sitting still

Speak to me slowly and tell me that I'm doing fine
And that there's no need to tow the line
I'll feel whatever you want to just give me a sign
Then wait until I change my mind
Keeping you farther than I want to just cause I'm tired
But now arms length just isn't right anymore though I've tried

Cancel the plan or just keep it I'm easy and loose
Don't know what feeling for outcome I'm trying to induce
I'll still be working with updated hours for you
Closing up shop in the morning, night and afternoon
