Verse 1 Summer's gone, the winter’s long, I’m trying to write another song, But every time I try my best, Words leave me in obscene haste. Coffee's cold, my phone is dead, All these thoughts stuck in my head, Dreams feel louder late at night, When nothing ever comes out right. Chorus I’m chasing words that just won't stay, Every rhyme that I want to say, Maybe I’m just scared to fail, So I pretend I’m doing so well. Verse 2 Everyone’s a star online, Posting wins I can’t call mine, I smile back but deep inside, I’m still waiting for my time. Got me a notebook full of plans, Empty pockets, shaking hands, Saying “soon” like it’s a prayer, I’m not sure when and where. Chorus I’m chasing words that just won't stay, Every rhyme that I want to say, Maybe I’m just scared to fail, So I pretend I’m doing so well. Verse 3 Friends are moving out of town, I’m still stuck on same ground, Same old room, different year, Same old doubts that I never clear. Mom says “you’ll be fine somehow”, Guess I’m learning when and how, To believe the things I like to say, When I look myself in my own face. Bridge Maybe I don’t need a crowd, Maybe quiet’s not so loud, Maybe all these broken lines, Are just proof I’m still alive. Final Chorus I’m chasing words that just won't stay, But I’ll write them all any which way, Even if they never would sell, At least I know myself this well. Outro Summer's gone, the winter’s long, Maybe this is the other song.
