Sideways

(album: Nobody Likes A Quitter - 2016)

Stay, plan the escape, manage your fate
Nobody really loves that taste
Get on the phone, get off the phone
If anybody asks you, tell them nobody's home here
I'm not here, we're not here, you're not here
No one at all

Wait, I never say, I never played
I only sit until it's paid
I'm writing "help" Did somebody sell?
Now I don't want to feel like I can actually stand here
I'm faking, I faked it, I'm faking all of it

I need something
You're amazing
I'm the reason
You can't see it
I'm your savior
You don't know it
I'm so nervous, but
I won't show it

You do what you do, who moves you
Pack up the van and let's be true
I got the room, two by two
I can name the friends that I miss here on one hand
Two hands, one hands, I don't know

I need something
You're amazing
I'm the reason
You can't see it
I'm your savior
You don't know it
I'm so nervous, but
I won't show it

On one hand, two hands, one hand, I don't know
One hand, two hands, one hand, I don't know
(I need something, you don't know it)
One hand, two hands, one hand, I don't know
(I'm the reason, I won't show it)

I'm trying to get right, saying goodnight
Closing the bar, but you've got fight
Smoking outside, ruin your insides
I remember spilling all my drinks in the city
In the city, in the city, in my city

I need something
You're amazing
I'm the reason
You can't see it
I'm your savior
You don't know it
I'm so nervous, but
I won't show it
