[Verse 1]
Sit on the porch
Hear the birds speak
Greet me
I’m the gatekeeper
Just a wave to the neighbors
Extra on the street
I’m the deadbeat
Watch me like a bad movie
You already know the ending

I put your letters to the side
Just out of sight
I keep a screen on
Only friend of mine
Behind closed doors
I implode
Another episode

I’m playing possum till I die
I could waste two lives
My fingers slipping through my mind
Oh no what a way to go
Oh well
And time won't ever tell
[Chorus 1]
Wеll so it goes
So it goes
We triеd but we’re still alone
They lied in your horoscope
It’s all a joke
So no, the stars don’t know what the future holds
Well so it goes
I’ll find a new weight to put on my shoulders

[Verse 2]
It doesn’t matter how hard the walls try
When every nights another party right outside my door
I’m alone!
And I’m a microphone

I’ll live forever; petrified
Under big blue sky
I don’t have much to hide behind
My lies are true bout half the time
So who knows?
Maybe it’s all for show
(Baby I’ll turn to stone)

I finally got all my space
Can’t keep a smile on my face
I brace for lies like they’re punches
Can’t help but go over budget
Me and my white knuckle grudges
Won’t budge or buckle from weight
I fell in love and I’m stuck in this headspace
I’m giving up couldn’t stand another first date
Stay in your lane we don’t need another hero
A rattlesnake I shoulda known from the get go
This is not petco
I am not jesus christ
I don’t have the holes
And I’m not as nice
I can’t make you whole
I’m empty inside
I’m no miracle worker
I’m a 9-5
I’m no miracle worker
I am bad advice
So idolize me

[Chorus 2]
Well so it goes
Yeah so it goes
We tried but we’re still alone
They lied in your horoscope
It’s all a joke
So no, the stars don’t know what the future holds
Well so it goes
I’ll find a new weight to put on my shoulders
