One For Sorrow, Two For Joni Jones

(album: In The End It Always Does - 2023)

There's a magpie in my tree
Shouting like he's trying to warn me
I don't know what he's talking about
When I look upon myself, I don't see
The same thing I saw a year ago or two, which is new
You seem to love me more when other people are around

It feels something like I'm missing you
But also like I'm missing me
I wanna be free
Or maybe I don't, subconsciously

Maybe things will change
No, that's just how I get into the trap
No one's ever gonna love me
Like this dog lying on my lap
No one's ever made me feel so stable
No one has been able to

Sometimes I think without you
Life would lose its bones
But really, day to day
I'll still just be walking in the park with my little Joni Jones

Trailing off on a call
Hurting you just happens, it's never my intention, at all
Yes, I can still hear you
I just wasn't paying any attention
Baby, I, I can take a lot more of the blame
Did I mention
I've been thinking about other people
Going around in circles
It's probably not that deep but
I'm just playing the silly little game
