Maybe 03:40
I tried so hard And I tried for so long To make you who I thought you should be Afraid to let go Afraid to move on I held too tight and you couldn’t breathe If you tried half as hard to love me As I tried to change you Maybe you’d still be around But you only see my mess And I only see your second best I tried so hard And I tried for so long To make you see the world that I see But you wouldn’t listen You couldn’t see it You closed your eyes to the things that I grieve If you tried half as hard to love me As I tried to change you Maybe you’d still be around But you only see my mess And I only see your second best Ooh I wish all the best for you Ooh It only took a mile high view Ooh I hope all your wildest dreams come true If you tried half as hard to love me As I tried to change you Maybe you’d still be around But you only see my mess And I only see your second best And maybe we were meant to run into the ground

December rolls around again And I feel everything and nothing I spend the whole year dreading it But it hits me like the coldest wind It’s winter in Ohio and the snow is coming down And the sun is disappearing behind the clouds The world is dark and cold and gray I think my soul is too It’s winter in Ohio I hope the spring is coming soon I used to love the icy cold That changed about ten years ago My heart grew too heavy to hold The weight of it comes with the snow It’s winter in Ohio and the snow is coming down And the sun is disappearing behind the clouds I’m frozen where I stand and I don’t think I have a chance It’s winter in Ohio Will these dark clouds ever pass And the darkness in the sky is reflected in my eyes I don’t think I’m gonna make it through this six-month-night Stuck in snow I’m paralyzed Avalanches in my mind I don’t think I’m gonna make it through this six-month-night It’s winter in Ohio and the snow is coming down And the sun is disappearing behind the clouds I know it in my head that spring will come around again It’s winter in Ohio and this feels like it’s the end

Pathetic 03:31
I’d offer you my love Without a single string attached But I’ve got sticky fingers And there’ll always be a catch I’m higher strung than you’d believe Don’t know how to relax Imagination’s dangerous In mine we’re the best match Is it romantic Whatever I do you’re always on my mind Or is it pathetic I just can’t forget you I try and I try I’d beg for your attention And I’d kneel down at your feet An ounce of your affection Traded for my dignity Is it romantic Whatever I do you’re always on my mind Or is it pathetic I just can’t forget you I try and I try I see it all with you Tell me you see those things too Having visions that we’re in love Convince myself that it’s enough I’ll tell myself it’s good enough Is it romantic Whatever I do you’re always on my mind Or is it pathetic I just can’t forget you I try and I try Is it romantic Whatever I do you’re always on my mind Or is it pathetic I just can’t forget you I try and I try

Mothers 03:32
I’m grieving the loss of my mother And she hasn’t left the earth yet She’s everything I’d call familiar But it feels like we still haven’t met I’m scared that I’ll end up just like her Spend my life carrying my own secrets I know that I won’t live up to her So I’ll keep her at arm’s length instead I’m wondering who she used​ to be Before title outweighed her name Her childhood ended at twenty Buried in an early grave They tell me that motherhood breaks you You hold the weight of the world all alone And all your sins are remembered forever No matter how hard you try to atone I’m wondering when she looks at me What the thoughts are that flood through her mind Does she see all the good that she gave me Or does she wish we weren’t so much alike If I try to love only the good parts And to leave all the rest on the side It’ll leave us shredded into pieces And it’ll leave all my heart far behind Someday I’ll be mourning my mother And more than anything I’ll want more time I’ll pore over her childhood photos And think we’d be friends in some other life I’ll wish that I’d been much more like her And look for ways she’s mirrored in my eyes But until then I’ll maintain our distance And spend the rest of her life wasting time

My friends are having babies and I'm wondering what do I do now Still living in my parents' house And my brother's getting married but I'm still stuck on the one who never called me back I couldn't have prepared for that I'm falling behind Am I running out of time The years are flying by But I'm frozen in time I'm looking at my life and I feel paralyzed There's nowhere left to go But I feel far from home Oh have I burned the only bridge to take me back where I belong My best friend's starting college Twenty five and finally finding her own path But I don't think my life's on track I see the same street names and same streetlights I ask myself Will I make it out alive or am I gonna lose my mind I'm falling behind Am I running out of time The years are flying by But I'm frozen in time I'm looking at my life and I feel paralyzed There's nowhere left to go But I feel far from home Oh have I burned the only bridge to take me back where I belong I don't want you to go in front of me 'Cause my wasted potential is all you'll see I don't want you to leave me behind 'Cause all you'll remember is my troubled mind I don't want you to go in front of me 'Cause my wasted potential is all you'll see I don't want you to leave me behind 'Cause all you'll remember is my troubled mind
