Headstone
[Verse 1]
I miss November, I'm getting sick of hearing about the weather you say it’s too damn cold out so I've sewn together
A group of songs that I think can make it better
We don't need a blanket
[Chorus]
I wish I could lay in the yard all night
That just feels like home to me
I wish the woods were a viable place to sleep
I keep thinking about my headstone
I keep thinking ’bout what I want it to say
I'm thinking about everything
And I can't get away, no I just can't get away
[Verse 2]
By God I love you, but I'm sorry to say that these songs aren't for you
No everything I say is for myself
But if they're for anyone, it's for the people who are just like me that I’ll never meet
It’s out of the question, oh I really mean this
Just catch a break 'cause I know you need it
[Chorus]
I wish I could lay in the yard all night
That just feels like home to me
I wish the woods were a viable place to sleep
I keep thinking about my headstone
I keep thinking ’bout what I want it to say
I'm thinking about everything
And I can't get away, no I just can't get away no
So I’ll drop this
[Verse 3]
Empty medication bottles filling up my room
Some say it's too late to start, but I say it's too soon
One by one, I count the dead whose lives were took for fodder
I hope these words, a beacon shines
So can I be the martyr?
I can hear them singing
They say:
[Chorus]
I wish I could lay in the yard all night
That just feels like home to me
I wish the woods were a viable place to sleep
I keep thinking about my headstone
I keep thinking 'bout what I want it to say
I'm thinking about everything
And I can't get away, no I just can't get away no
[Outro]
I keep thinking about the weight of the world
And how I'm putting every single ounce of it on me
I'm overthinking everything
And I just can't get to sleep
You think you've got it all figured out
Like you've got a headstone coated in gold
Mine's cracking at the edges but I love it that way
Like at least I'm happy
So I'll drop this
