A New Side Of Things

(album: We Make Characters That Look Like Us To Feel Less Alone - 2019)

You know I'm tryna see the new side of things
And I need you to go with me
Scared and I can't do this alone right now
Oh no, am I going backwards?
Falling into my emotions that I'll never understand
Oh, well, I think I need to stay up, above my own head
Oh my god, why can't we be friends?
I guess I'll never understand
But yeah that's how life goes
Dark thoughts they come and go
So we make characters that look like us to feel less alone

I'm sorry and I wish that I could be there right now
But you can always reach out
I swear that I'll come running
I'm half way across the world
But you can feel my heart beat to your drum
To me you're not just anyone
You're not just anyone

Maybe it's meant to be that I can be happy
In Southern California, writing these songs about us
And when I'm all alone my mind plays tricks on me
I don't know if I'm happy, I just know

I'm sorry and I wish that I could be there right now
But you can always reach out
I swear that I'll come running
I'm half way across the world
But you can feel my heart beat to your drum
To me you're not just anyone
I'm sorry and I wish that I could be there right now
But you can always reach out
I swear that I'll come running
I'm half way across the world
But you can feel my heart beat to your drum
To me you're not just anyone
You're not just anyone
