Not Strong Enough

  • Black hole opened in the kitchen
    Every clock's a different time
    It would only take the energy to fix it
    I don't know why I am

    The way I am
    Not strong enough to be your man
    I tried, I can't
    Stop staring at the ceiling fan and
    Spinning out about things that haven't happened
    Breathing in and out

    Drag racing through the canyon
    Singing, "Boys Don't Cry"
    Do you see us getting scraped up off the pavement?
    I don't know why I am

    The way I am
    Not strong enough to be your man
    I lied, I am
    Just lowering your expectations
    Half a mind that keeps the other second guessing
    Close my eyes and count

    Always an angel, never a god
    Always an angel, never a god
    Always an angel, never a god
    Always an angel, never a god
    Always an angel, never a god
    Always an angel, never a god
    Always an angel, never a god
    Always an angel, never a god
    Always an angel, never a god
    Always an angel, never a god
    Always an angel, never a god
    Always an angel, never a god

    I don't know why I am the way I am
    There's something in the static
    I think I've been having revelations
    Coming to in the front seat, nearly empty
    Skip the exit to our old street and go home
    Go home alone Writer/s: Julien Rose Baker, Lucy Elizabeth Dacus, Phoebe Lucille Bridgers
