Darkness

(album: Skylight - 2018)

Suddenly I find
I've got darkness on my mind
It's a question mark that keeps me looking
And it's never satisfied
And it's never what I thought
Saying I'm happy happy when I'm not
Oh I've got darkness on my mind

Leaning out the frame
When it's particulate and gray
I'm perpendicular to my whole being
When I lean a certain way

Saying I'm happy when I'm not
Finding roaches in the pot
I've got darkness on my mind

Some people spend their whole lives looking
For someone who could understand
While meanwhile the lilac's blooming
Are you strong enough to be my man?
I know it's been a long time coming
I'm angry and I know that's weak
I'm longing about open windows
For whatever it is I see

Some people spend their whole lives looking
For someone who could understand
While meanwhile the lilac's blooming
Are you strong enough to be my man?
And I know it's been a long time coming
And it's not like I thought it'd be
So I'm trying not to be so bitter
I'm just looking at it honestly

I know it's been a long time coming
I'm angry and I know that's weak
But I'm longing about open windows
For whatever it is I see
Some people spend their whole lives looking
For someone who could understand
While meanwhile the lilac's blooming
Are you strong enough to be my man?
