Circuses or ghost towns

There's no in-betweens to know now

But I have always occupied the middle where it's cool to hide

If silence is an issue

I don't have a good defense

For overthinking everything I've ever almost said

I think I might need diagnoses

I know that's all man-made terms

But I've been looking for an act of God and I keep getting hurt

The good thing in all of this

Is staying anonymous

We're looking for monoliths

Hey, there's nothing in aisle six

And I've been something of an addict these days

But still an optimist

Saying this has got to be the worst it's gonna get, mm, mm

You're looking f

You're looking for hope, I don't know how

Watching you fortify yourself

Garner your books and pack your bags with the resistance

Tell me it couldn't be that bad

Tell me you'll call my mom and dad

If anything happens when we're out there

I'll be vigilant

The good thing in all of this

Is earning your callouses

Getting resilient

Studying consequence

I've been something of a scholar these days

I've been trying, but I get it wrong

I've been something of a revelation

I just don't know what I want

And I've been something of a loser these days

I've been nothing like my father these days

I've been something of a liar these days

I am okay

I am okay, okay, okay

The good thing in all of this

Is being irrelevant

Getting your tires checked

And going back out again

The good thing in all of this

Is having a friend in it

Come tell me how it is

And how it's been
