Make Your Mark Songtext
Showed up at the back porch screen door
Shared a bottle of wine in the basement with my guitar
Mom and dad drunk upstairs like they did too many shots on New Years
Even grownups make mistakes when they can't deal
Have you used your time wisely? What does that mean?
Remember when I pierced my own nose? I suppose to feel seen
Weave through the side yard weeds in the dark
Make your mark, it almost tastes like eighteen
Can you feel the weight of nothing?
I'm so over waking up to these stress dreams
The longest breath I ever held
Been setting records I don't mean to
Would you sing me back to sleep
So I can dream of being near you?
The longest breath I ever held
Need something real to sink my teeth through
Would you sing me back to sleep
So I can dream of being near you?
Am I homesick or maybe sick of being home?
It feels like all or nothing, fish flopping, water hits the floor
I'm out of practice, didn't read the syllabus
Didn't know that I required it
To exist as myself, throw an "F" on the shelf
Serotonin on a budget, baby
In the midst of all of this
In the midst of all of this
A new bloom grows
I didn't ask for this
I didn't ask
But I'm not about to uproot the success for something else
Don't we all feel like a weed in a vase?
But who's to say we've haven't outgrown this place?
The longest breath I ever held
Been setting records I don't mean to
Would you sing me back to sleep
So I can dream of being near you?
The longest breath I ever held
Need something real to sink my teeth through
Would you sing me back to sleep
So I can dream of being near you?
