Ben’s Song

[Verse 1]
My brother has the hair I've always wanted
We fought about
When he cut it off
For a contest
He tells me I'm too serious
And I agree with him
From our lips to God's voicemail
Guess He must be out again

[Chorus]
I don't mean to sound indifferent
I just changed more than I ever wanted to
And if I retrace my steps
My knees hurt
And these new meds make me sad
Make my hands burn
And if I can't tell you I'm good
Then I feel worse
I used to sleep through the night

[Verse 2]
I met three girls named Claire
When I transferred colleges
We all hate what we write
When it's honest

[Verse 3]
And the lady across the street
Hands out pages of the bible
Says we're all going to hell
'Cause we watch American Idol
I told her I was already there
And it's no Apocalypse
From our lips to God's voicemail
Guess He hates when I'm like this

[Chorus]
I don't mean to sound indifferent
I just changed more than I ever wanted to
And if I retrace my steps
My knees hurt
And these new meds make me sad
Make my hands burn
And if I can't tell you I'm good
Then I feel worse
I used to sleep through the night

[Bridge]
I used to drive and go out
But it's snowing way too hard now
I'm back home
Ben lives somewhere else now
And I still don't wanna let myself down

[Chorus]
I don't mean to sound indifferent
I just changed more than I ever wanted to
And if I retrace my steps
My knees hurt
And these new meds make me sad
Make my hands burn
And if I tell you I'm bad
Then I feel worse
I used to sleep through the night
