Stock phrases start to sound the same.
I guess i'm just stressed,
I guess i'm getting too tired out.
And i couldn't have seen
what this became.
I'm not at my best,
but that's how my head's wired up.
but when the rest fires up, its...
I guess I never saw this coming.
I spent all of my time running.
Now people are saying things i'll never know.
And there's nothing i can do to stop them,
They left with issues i brought 'em.
I guess i'm really only good at causing problems.
And you were never good at solving those.
So if you think so, say so.
Why don't you just say so.
So if you think so, say so.
Why don't you just say so.
After second, more chances are a harder sell,
It's nothing i can't help,
nothing i can't fix myself,
if only i could tell,
if i'm the monster in your closet
the elephant in the room,
if i'm the dust under the rug
that's suffocating you.
I guess I never saw this coming.
I spent all of my time running.
Now people are saying things i'll never know.
And there's nothing i can do to stop them,
They left with issues i brought 'em.
I guess i'm really only good at causing problems.
And we were never good at solving those.
So if you think so, say so.
Why don't you just say so.
So if you think so, say so.
Why don't you just say so.
And the monster in your closet,
the elephant in the room,
and the dust under the rug,
you've been alluding to.
If i'm the monster in your closet,
with everything to lose,
i'm done coming up with
just another pained excuse.
I guess I never saw this coming.
I spent all of my time running.
Now people are saying things i'll never know.
And there's nothing i can do to stop them,
They left with issues i brought 'em.
I guess i'm really only good at causing problems.
And i was never good at solving those.
So if you think so, say so.
Why don't you just say so.
And i was never good at solving those.
So if you think so, say so.
Why don't you just say so.

Nearly a decade late to the Taz party, but I’m so glad to be aware of it now! I don’t know what elixir Griffin put into the album but I would like to drink a gallon of it. katiegreene137
Bouncy, jangly power pop with a slash of acidic shadow, as the very best twee always has. From Boston, they met at band camp (not Bandcamp). Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 2, 2019
