Jinxed

(album: Keepsakes & Reminders - 2021)

Looks like I hit the wall
I guess I'm jinxed from birth but aren't we all
I couldn't give you everything you possibly could need
So I guess I'll pack my things and old photographs
For once I felt lucky

We had to climb to walk this line
All the work we put into but I'm still paying your dues

If you give me the opportunity
No more excuses, it's all misleading (we've been dying)
Stay close, and please stay near
Let's start again from here, let's start again from here

Old wounds now open too
I was done with being lonely in a crowded room
I started out with a blank slate that went null and cheap
It was never up to me to admit defeat

We had to climb to walk this line
All the work we put into, but I'm still paying your dues

If you give me the opportunity
No more excuses, it's all misleading (we've been dying)
Stay close, and please stay near
Let's start again from here, let's start again from here
Let's bring on uncertainty, so carelessly
They always leave, we've been dying

I'm at it again, like a crime we commit
These old promises were a means to an end
You're no longer a friend, but I'll embrace what we had
These old promises, a past life we'll regret what we had

We had to climb to walk this line
All the work we put into but I'm still paying your dues
The fear that you'd go, it was all I could show
Just don't let me down, just don't let me down

If you give me the opportunity
No more excuses, it's all misleading (we've been dying)
Stay close, and please stay near
Let's start again from here, let's start again from here
Let's bring on uncertainty, so carelessly
They always leave, we've been dying

Stay close, and please stay near
Let's start again from here, let's start again from here
