about

Not very psychedelic, but oh 🐳

lyrics

I’ve written it cryptically
I’ve written it plain
I’ve written it optimistically
But nothing has changed

I’ve written it happy, written it sad
Written it lonely, written it mad
And just when I think I’ve written it
Every way I can
I go and pick up the pen
And write it all over again (cause)

It’s so much easier to hide
My feelings in between the lines
Wearing my best disguise
Writing the song
that I’ve written a million times

I bury my intentions deep
Under my chords and melodies
Wonder if you can see
I’ve been writing the song
That I’ve written a million times

I’ve written you gracious
I’ve written you mean
I’ve made you the hero and the villain
And the gray that we’re all living in between

In metaphors and catchy phrases
Vocal runs, I run away from
All the words I still don’t have the nerve to say
I go and pick up the pen
And write it all over again
