So I said I was going to post some song lyrics a while ago and I didn't. I guess I'm nervous about cause I don't really know what I'm doing. But here are some I wrote recently.

"Up in the Air".

My head is swimming in a sea of thoughts that don’t make sense
I’m not sure why I’m feeling so lost
I guess I thought that you and me were somehow in the present tense
Not something once attempted and now gone

The wild anticipation
breaks free to imagination
and I guess I just saw things not really there

Maybe I misunderstood
Maybe you miscommunicated
Maybe I didn’t say enough
Maybe you weren’t listenin’

Coffee till 3am from Thursday afternoon
Walks in the park in the fall
Letting go of fears held within me as a child
And trying so hard to let you in

I wasn’t loud enough
I guess I should’ve screamed it at the top of my lungs


Chorus:
And I don’t know where to go from here
Can’t you take the lead and show me how it’s s’pposed to go
I’ve confused myself with thoughts and dreams I didn’t wanna write
And now I’m asking you to just call
I know I’m far too fragile and sometimes too much to handle
And there’s a million reasons why I shouldn’t even care
But I do.


My mind is playing ping pong with the growing list of reasons
I can’t quite get a grip on finding truth
If emotions are supposed to pass through me like the seasons
Then why am I feeling stuck and now unglued

And there were witnesses to my disbelief when you walked in the door
I wanted to be an open book of answers
Instead I think I only showed the cover
And the truth of it is I have no idea what she came there for
And the only one I’ve really got to blame is me



I wanted to get to know you better
I wanted to move on slow
But now staring this right in the face I think that you should know

That I don’t know where to go from here
Can’t you take the lead and show me how it’s s’pposed to go
I’ve confused myself with thoughts and dreams I didn’t wanna write
And now I’m asking you to just call
I know I’m far too fragile and sometimes too much to handle
And there’s a million reasons why I shouldn’t even care
But I do.
