Uninspired

I can’t think of any words
My mind is blank
I’ve got nothing new to say
What do you think
I’ve rewrote this so many times
Every time it’s still bad
So we’ll keep it like this
And we’re gonna have to live with it
Because
I’m so uninspired
Got nothing in my mind
All the time
Forgot to write a second verse
I’m not a man of many words
I’m not a man of anything really
I’m hardly a man at all
Tell me what to say, tell me what to do
Tell me how to write that perfect song for you
Because I know I can’t do it myself
Because
I’m so uninspired
Got nothing in my mind
All the time
All the time
Why did you have to go and hurt me, baby
You didn’t have to go and hurt me, baby, baby
I’m dying
To be noticed
But no one’s noticing me
So I just wanna die
But I don’t want people to notice me
Don’t think they’d like what they see
Don’t like anything I’ve done
I think that applies to everyone
Because
I’m so uninspired
Got nothing in my mind
All the time
All the time
Why did you have to go and hurt me, baby
You didn’t have to go and hurt me, baby, baby

Lost In The Dark
03:56
|
|||
|
You’re lost in the dark again
And so am I
I hear you so softly speak to me
And now I see
That it won’t be long
Until the fear is gone
There will come a day when we’ll know each other
And we’ll no longer feel lost
In the dark
I must speak
But I’m afraid I’ll say it wrong
So I say nothing at all
I still think
That you hate me even though you say you don’t
Because I’m so insecure
But it won’t be long
Until the fear is gone
There will come a day when we’ll know each other
And we’ll no longer feel lost
But you call me one day
Say we should go our separate ways
I’m not in the right state of mind anymore
And I say I understand
But do I really understand
We say we should be friends but I still can’t help feeling lost again
In the dark again
But I know it won’t be long
Until the fear is gone
There will come a day when we’ll know each other
And we’ll no longer feel lost

The Storm Has Gone Away
03:26
|

|
Darling, don't be afraid
The storm has gone away
And if you never go
I'll never be alone
The sunshine's peeking through
He says hello to you
And as the music plays
I'll never be the same
If it's alright
Alright
Alright
Alright with you
By my side
Watching our feet keep time
I pull your body close to mine
The sun always seems to shine
When I hold your hand in mine
But when the storm returns
The music slows, and now we've learned
Some things will stay in the past
But our love will always last
If it's alright
Alright
Alright
Alright with you
By my side
If it's alright with you
By my side

Everybody's Lying
04:37
|
|||
|
Everybody’s lying
Everyone’s faking and forcing their emotions
In order to express them
Or maybe it’s just me
I can’t connect to anyone
And no one can relate to me
I am a minor character manufactured by an amateur screenwriter who doesn’t know to develop characters
I wish that I could comprehend
What goes on inside your head
So I could understand you
And maybe you could understand me too
Why’d I think I could be a writer when I regret every word that I say?
Doesn’t matter if the days are dark or brighter
I’ll never have a productive day
I’m so uninspired
Nothing in my mind
So much so that I reuse the words from other things I wrote
Throw in another chord
Maybe it’ll cover up the fact
That you’re a shit songwriter
I never want to say another word to you again
But it’s nothing against you
I just don’t I should ever try to speak again
Only if you ask me to
Because i wanna be there for you
I want to be there for you
And I hope you’ll be there for me too
I want to be there for you
If only I knew how

The Walk Back Home
03:42
|
|||
|
Each night I walk alone
Throughout the cold and the snow
Can’t see where I go
I sit in my room
And feel the weight of impending doom
Constantly upon me
But I know
Someday I’ll see the sun
Don’t you want to see the sun too
So won’t you let me hold you
Will you hold me too?
Won’t you hold me tight and tell me everything’s alright?
Can’t you see that you and me
Were meant to be
So if it’s all okay
I just want you to stay
Once again I’m all alone
I’m back in the cold
And I just walk back home
I’m so misunderstood
And I never feel good
About myself
But I know I feel so much better
I feel like you understand me
So won’t you let me hold you
Will you hold me too?
Won’t you hold me tight and tell me everything’s alright?
Can’t you see that you and me
Were meant to be
So if it’s all okay
I just want you to stay

January
05:13
|

It’s the middle of January
It always seems like this month will never end
Time's been moving really slowly
It’s something that I still can’t comprehend
It’s been so long but I still can’t move on
I know the day will come and I don’t know when
I can’t find any coping mechanisms
To get me through the exact same day again
And now I want to go back to
When I felt okay
‘Cause everyday was better
When you were around
When you were right next to me
Woke up, and it’s still January
I’m still living alone in isolation
I feel like I’m in purgatory
What does it take to get me out of this two-by-four situation
Inside I only feel empty
And I’m feeling distant from all my friends
Waking up to a cup of coffee
I always feel like I’m doing the same again and again and again and then I’ll do it again
Oh I remember
When I felt okay
‘Cause everyday was better
When you were around
When you were right next to me
I feel a notion
That I’m devoid of emotion
When’s it gonna be February
If everything is moving in slow motion?
Oh lord, take my hand
Lead me to the promised land
I’ve been lost for so many years
Won’t you wash away these nonexistent tears
I want to go to a different city
Where I don’t wallow in self-pity
Doesn’t seem I have a place to go
And yet somehow I know
That I’ll be okay
Cause every day is gonna be better
Cause you’ll be around
Cause you’ll be right next to me

Company

It feels so strange to hear you say my name
Because I’ve rarely ever heard you say it
When I hear it, I ask myself
“is that really my name?”
I’m not so sure I’ve heard it before
Do you know really know anything about me?
Does my presence affect you at all?
All I know is that I really enjoy your company
And that’s good enough for me

Come Back
04:36
|

|
Come back my old friend
I don’t want this to be the end
Can I ask to see you again
Without coming off as desperate
I want to tell you how much I miss you
But I’m afraid that will continue to push you
Away from me until we never see each other again
Oh come back my friend
Haven’t seen you in so long
So why did I write a song
Instead of writing to you?
I know it seems I’m stuck in the past
But it can’t hurt to ask
Do you think about me too?
Come back, where have you gone?
Why don’t you reply?
Will i hear from you?
Or is this goodbye?
I want to tell you how much I miss you
But I’m afraid I went and pushed you
Away from me, it seems its something I’m an expert in
Oh come back old friend
You’re so far away
And it seems everyday
I just don’t know what to do
I know that I should probably move on
Sing a different song
And never write to you
But i know
You’ll tell me it’s just fine
I guess you’re out there somewhere
But I’m not going anywhere
No I’m not going anywhere
No I’m not going anywhere
No I’m not going anywhere
Because you’re three fucking hours away
I don’t know what to say
And I don’t think I ever will
I know that I’ll probably move on
And by the end of this song
I’ll never speak to you again
I’ll never speak to you again

It's You
02:31
|
|||
|
I used to know you so well
But I don’t anymore
One day I’m close to you
And the next you’re a stranger
Why did we think we’d be alright
We hardly speak
I have no idea what our dynamic is
Cause It’s you
You
It had to be you
It’s always been you
But it can’t be anymore
Oh it’s you
I can’t escape from you
As much as I’d like to
But it’s just not possible
You’re unavoidable
I just want you to go
Away from me

What Do You See?
06:39
|
|||
|
I’m so painfully hollow
I’m not sure that I’m a real person
I’m very fond of you
And it seems you’re fond of me too
But you shouldn’t be
What do you see in me?
I feel nervous because you’ll soon find
There’s nothing beneath the surface
I don’t know myself
Neither does anyone else
You see someone you think is funny
But I see someone who tries too hard
You see someone you find alluring
But I only see his many flaws
Every time I look into the mirror
Every time I look into the mirror
What does anyone see in me
I’ve never been able to see
Because I’ve always hated everything about myself
And so should everyone else
You say I’m too hard on myself but
I think you should stop pretending
And tell me that you hate me baby
Oh tell me that you hate me baby
You’re far too kind
And I can’t get you out of my mind
I just can’t fathom why someone like you
Would want me to stick around
Why do you want me around?
Do you see something good in me?
Tell me what you see
And maybe for once I’ll think more highly of myself
But I can’t promise
I think you’re perfect as you are
I can't say the same for myself
And I’m not sure if I can trust you yet
So won’t you tell me you love me baby
Tell me you love me baby
Would you be so kind
To keep me in mind
Because I want you baby baby
More than anything
More than anything

Magnets
04:40
|

|
I wish I got to know you better than I do now
I think we would’ve been really good together
But now I’m moving away and so are you
And I have to accept that I missed my chance
And I’ll forever regret it
The two of us are magnets and we’re facing the wrong way
We’re going in opposite directions
I always hoped we’d be closer one day
So turn around and I won’t let go
Have you managed to find your way in the city by the lake?
Do you still think about New Year’s Eve?
Because I know I do
Yes I know I do, darling
A lot’s gonna change
More than it already has
The two of us are magnets and we’re facing the wrong way
We’re going in opposite directions
I always hoped we’d be closer one day
So turn around and I won’t let go
Turn around cause I can’t let go
