Out There

Speaking softly to a mad clock Trying to figure if I'm really feeling bad or not 'Cause we prefer to keep the back locked Walk out the front while I'm wearing my mismatching socks Back of my head just screaming "tick-tock" Soundtrack of the day just ripping through my thoughts And what a lovely day it is out there Storm has gone away Guess I forgot what it felt like (But I) Suppose the roses really smelled nice (Felt right) Now I guess I'll find my way back up the stairs Residue out on a laptop Smoky haze painting pictures for the backdrop Treading water while we're land-locked Drink a hundred cups of coffee til I have to stop Water the back and break a flip-flop Now the sunlight's got me reeling like a spinning top And what a lovely day it is out there Storm has gone away Guess I forgot what it felt like (But I) Suppose the roses really smelled nice (Felt right) Now I guess I'll find my way back up the stairs Tomorrow, yesterday, today I can't remember Along the way the spring began to fade Now it's December Wad of cash stuffed in a matchbox Don't turn on the news because it's just too sad to watch Walk in the kitchen take my mask off Throw some frozen hash browns on the flat top Tune in my head sounds like a jackpot But I'm too tangled up in sky feel like an astronaut And what a lovely day it is out there Storm has gone away Guess I forgot what it felt like (But I) Suppose the roses really smelled nice (Felt right) Now I guess I'll find my way back up the stairs
