Everything Makes Sense

(album: This Time Next Year - 2022)

My voice is tired
From singing to myself
Tryna fall asleep
Tryna keep you close for now

My brain is wired
From thinking to myself
Nothing feels the same
Just wanna make a name somehow

But what's it really matter anyway?
Nothing ever stays
Every time I touch it, it just melts away
So tell me, sell me on the story I'm supposed to believe

It never mattered what I had to say
I was always wrong
Every question turned into another long lecture
Made me think that thinking wasn't good for me

But you
You make everything make sense
You make heaven feel like less
Less like a dream

And you
You make the stars feel like friends
You make mars feel like an end
That feels much safer to me

My hands are shaking
From holding onto you
For too long a time
You were never mine, were you?

My back is breaking
From carrying this weight
Of my flesh and bones
Help me unload
Won't you?

But what's it really matter anyway?
Nothing ever stays
Every time I touch it, it just melts away
So tell me, sell me on the story I'm supposed to believe

It never mattered what I had to say
I was always wrong
Every question turned into another long lecture
Made me think that thinking wasn't good for me

But you
You make everything make sense
You make heaven feel like less
Less like a dream

And you
You make the stars feel like friends
You make mars feel like an end
That feels much safer to me

But you
You make everything make sense
You make heaven feel like less
Less like a dream

And you
You make the stars feel like friends
You make mars feel like an end
That feels much safer to me
