Looks Like Hell

(album: You're Welcome - 2021)

Ya ask why I can't tell you things
What's been weighing on me lately
Something about this changed
Was it me, was it you?
Ya know I can't say
We're heading two different ways
The silence it tells me things
Like the truth

We rode a wave up 'n' down
Throwing me all around
Thinking we'd hit the ground
Well you will

On our way to nowhere fast
Off the overpass
Looks like hell
Making big mistakes
Led us to a place
Looks like hell
If I'm being honest
You're safe in the moment
But lost in the open
I know you too well
The only way out is through ourselves
And it looks like hell

How did it get this way?
On the surface it seems okay
But there's energy underneath
That I feel
Remember when we last spoke
Your eyes said what you don't
That whatever in this broke
We can't fix

Either under or over it
Something I'll never get
Where was the disconnect
We couldn't weld

On our way to nowhere fast
Off the overpass
Looks like hell
Making big mistakes
Led us to a place
Looks like hell
If I'm being honest
You're safe in the moment
But lost in the open
I know you too well
The only way out is through ourselves
And it looks like hell

The destination I saw clearly
Was farther than you planned
Just a means to an end

On our way to nowhere fast
Off the overpass
Looks like hell
Making big mistakes
Led us to a place
Looks like hell
If I'm being honest
You're safe in the moment
But lost in the open
I know you too well
The only way out is through ourselves
And it looks like hell
It looks like hell
