Tell me what you want, and I will have it for you any chance I get
Type it out and send it off, pick it up and set it in my head
When you find out I’m steady, show me inside your boundary
Movies with the captions on, stitching something, sewing up in bed
Makeup mirror, good advice, window wine-drunk should suffice instead
When you find out I’m steady, show me inside your boundary

Wash my hands away from harm
Use your shoulder to rest my arm
Watch the bitter broken scene
Keeping smiles with Sertraline
Fold my hands beneath my shirt
The jumping starts beneath the dirt
Crack my knuckles, keep a stare
Crack me open so I don’t care

Waiting on the park bench
Wondering if I can fake it anymore
Toe a short line to be with you
Sneaking smiles across the bookstore
Glance for chances setting forth
Such a short time to be with you
Hold the phone, collect my thoughts
And catch my breath to walk to you
There’s an issue with telling you
Campus, clutching hands, pavilion
A million times to see it through
Said “I’ll miss you” to make it true

I can’t keep pandering my thoughts aside it
You gotta make it clear you’re not one-sided
There’s a no-frills zone I could show you around if I’m ever righteous
Live in social homes where the whole floor knows, gotta try not to mind it
And still, I fall too hard too fast inside this
You gotta make it clear you’re not one-sided
Let me split the scene apart, traffic slights get me so far out
So sussed out on a shadow’s doubt, let’s take off, let me shake around

Loan your letter to the dial tone
We can pass time, make time, sit in silence on the phone
Know you're better off skipping stones
If you scratch my back, then I'll scratch my name outside your home
I can't say enough about you
It all just surrounds you, the people around you
You wanna jam your fingernails beneath my skin
Concealed within, ask me where I've been
I’ll let you know
I’ll let you know
I'll let you know
I’ll let you know
When I'm coming into town
Home is calling me to you again
You're a fine, fine hostess, closest out of all my friends
Smokes are choking down to my head
Checking in on me, keep me settled down in your bed
I can't shake the city around you
I can't be me without you, it's a pity without you
We shared a free drink under the lights and talked our shit
The feelings within, as for where I've been
I’ll let you know
I’ll let you know
I'll let you know
I’ll let you know
When I'm coming into town

When the world puts a shine on your shin
And senators send your causes to the bin
You know I’m gonna get out and get down
From farmhouses around my town
And believe me, I’ll come for your scene
Like a day-drunk dad down a school zone street
I’ll do a lot to live in peace
Run my mind through requests that you’ve said
Pick out quotes from the books that you’ve read
Lend a hand, hold a hand, if I can
I’m on my way as fast as I can
And believe me, I’ll come for your scene
Like a day-drunk dad down a school zone street
I’ll do a lot to live in peace
Somewhere else, you’ve got your whole life through
Somewhere else, you’ve got your whole life through
Somewhere else, you’ve got your whole life through
Somewhere else, you’ve got your whole life through
