for me

Lay down and say what's on your mind Taking notes on what I said I want everyone to think I'm fine A pensive stare and an arm of lead I keep writing songs I wouldn't listen to Who writes songs they don't believe A motive etched in carbon steel I wish someone would carry me 'Cause my knees are caving in And my shoes are glued to the concrete And I see a scar forming on my shin Leave a kiss on my chin I'd stay in on a Friday night But water doesn't do the trick I'll take a walk to clear my mind But too much air can make me sick I've never lost my voice before I guess I'll pick a new career My grandpa went to this school too I think about him when I'm here She filled a quarter of her page Forgive yourself for fighting change For me nothing ever goes as planned Leave a kiss on my hand Come and visit when you can I keep writing songs I wouldn't listen to Who writes songs they don't believe A motive etched in carbon steel I wish someone would carry me
