I cannot run since I hurt my knee
I have been struggling
So most nights I have just stayed in

All of these rooms have worn 2-D
Vain & bored
Mind wandering

Pause & consider my position (Oh-Oh-Ohh)
A sponge of soundbites
Or some formed criticism

We are anxious I am going
I'm at my worst when they’re around
Not that you purposely bring me down
But you don't need me, so leave me
My sadness is my own

I took a pause from what you need
And walked for half a day in broken straight lines, blistering
This town looks best when its asleep
For now absolved from everything

We walked the same route out of school
Divisions left me dizzy
I used the bench to break my fall
We are anxious, I am going
I'm at my worst when they’re around
Not that you purposely bring me down
But you don't need me, so leave me
My sadness is my own

I have regrets, they are easy
Last bolt out the gate, the certainty relieves me
It seems honesty is the light
Cause at our age we all bring baggage

Why did you come here
We've forgotten all the days and all the pacts

We are anxious, I am going
I'm at my worst when they're around
Not that you purposely bring me down
But you don't need me, so leave me
My sadness is my own
