I don’t care whether I have what it takes (no)

Even if i don’t I still try again yeah

he waits he waits he waits and waits for me

7.10

[lettce]

I will go the distance with you

I won’t turn away when I don’t understand

this life is plenty big for us two

I promise I will do my all to love each new edition of you

6.07,

[lettce]

You’re not the first of your kind

You’re not the only one to have a bright idea

Don’t think the world will wait for you to [try/fail] to do

The things that only you can do

(Oh no)

You’ve got to take your time

You’ve got to build your life the way you want

Brick by tiny brick, step by tiny step

No way to make it overnight

Days and years will slip through your fingers if you let em

Wake up, remember why you’re here love go get em

ghost stories

Maybe if I have to ask then I already know the answer

But a part of me stays wishing we would never drift apart

Are we still friends?

Do you think of me and smile?

Do you wonder how I’ve been for a while?

If I’m just a ghost to you

may the stories you retell be true

Maybe I’m too sentimental

I don’t own the house, it’s a rental

I don’t know the how or the when, only that we don’t talk like we used to

Your number don’t mean I can call you

And if I did, well, would you want to?

Besides, I’d have nothing to say

My freeze frame gets in the way

years have passed by like a day

Not for you but for me anyway

Are we still friends?

Do you think of me and smile?

Do you wonder how I’ve—

I guess I’m just too sentimental

Everybody else moves on

Friends come and go

Empires fall, life goes on

Or maybe it’s just cuz I’m stuck

in the same old mind numbing muck

in the rain cold whining bout “luck”

Knowing damn well it’s anything but

“I can change” “I’m tired” wet sad fuck

Enough about me I’m sick of it

toughing out weeds, in the thick of it

Thick of what? loads of your own shit?

Bitch I said enough ruining the damn song

And you wonder why you can’t keep friends long

one tiny kernel of genuine curiosity goes a long way.

No one likes a pity party.

You don’t ask me how I’ve been,

And I don’t ask you for anything

yet I remember, still remember,

nights I dream of things that could never be

unwritten letter, always forever

future whatever, remember forever

fight to see the wings of a better me

remember whatever future forever

remember the future forever whatever

forever/whatever

forever/whatever

forever/whatever-er-er-er…

Could we be friends?

I don’t know you anymore

I’m not asking you to be like before

if our paths do cross again

I hope I’m doing better then

4.20x7.24

[lettce]

Will there come a day when I lose my hearing

Or my brain can’t remember the words I’ve yet to say

If my voice grows hoarse or my tune it starts to wander

I can’t read my unwritten ink more than see the light of day

all matter fades to grey

songs that we wrote meant for no one to hear

No records to spin for my own listening ear

Not one tangible artifact

Returning to earth as a pile of stardust

No legacy, no impact

Ashes to ashes…

5.23

[lettce]

can I sleep until my head stops spinning

(…) blood runs dry

(…) life worth living

(…) wonder why

12.20

[lettce]

Maybe I’ll never find the right words to say and that’s why they came out so wrong

Lately whenever I let nights hurt the day .. ..in so long

12.15

[lettce]

never really do what I really wanna do

Only what I feel like in the moment

Make a resolution baby what you tryna prove

You’re a gutless loser come on own it

Reset reset starting over over and again

Present is the past the time eludes me

Hoping praying fearing weeping counting back from ten

persevering when my gut deludes me

Maybe I’ve slid back but I’m still facing forward

I have goals I can remember racing toward
