Norman Rockwell

(album: American Feelings - 2019)

I don't talk about my feelings much
Sit around with all my secrets tucked
Under the table with my family
Staring off a little distantly
Stuck in the middle of America
Drawing Xs on my calendar
We get bored and drink our dreams away
Cause that's what everybody does these days

Laying here underneath the big sky
Stars blinking at me like they're strobe lights
Suddenly it hits me like a snake bite
Everything is clear and I realize

I'm stuck in the paint on the wall in a picture frame
White little house but there's nobody home
Stuck in a life that I didn't want anyway
But I don't even know
Where would I go
If I ever got out of here
Paint a new world with the colors I stole
One of these days yeah I might just disappear
And you won't even know

We sit around and let the TV fill
Up all the quiet, on the window sill
Are all the flowers we tried to save
But no one's getting any sun today
We talk and talk forever but
We never end up anywhere
Get bored and give our love away
Cause that's what everybody does these days

Laying here underneath the big sky
Stars are blinking at me like they're strobe lights
Suddenly it hits me like a snake bite
Everything is clear and I realize

I'm stuck in the paint on the wall in a picture frame
White little house but there's nobody home
Stuck in a life that I didn't want anyway
But I don't even know
Where would I go
If I ever got out of here
Paint a new world with the colors I stole
One of these days yeah I might just disappear
And you won't even know

Oh
You won't even know
Oh
You won't even know

I'm stuck in the paint on the wall in a picture frame
Some people look for a second but go
They're seeing themselves but they just have to look away
Cause they don't even know

I'm stuck in the paint on the wall in a picture frame
White little house but there's nobody home
Stuck in a life that I didn't want anyway
But I don't even know
Where would I go
If I ever got out of here
Paint a new world with the colors I stole
One of these days yeah I might just disappear
And you won't even know

Oh
You won't even know
Oh
You won't even know
