----------- NOTE ------------ Been a while since I made a stand-alone track, and I wanted to do something involving the xylophone, so here we are. Just a little barely veiled allegory about feeling like you're sticking out in a small pond. -------------- LYRICS -------------- let me burn the bridges down, for a moment, let me rest for a while, on the stone and, let all your voices pass me by, let me light a fire alone, for a moment, and get the stars to align, on the slope and, not a soul around to tell me why, i felt all cramped up, and shut in, mingling with your blabber, now i'm amped up, and laughing, cause i decided that I'd rather, build a door and crawl to the light, left on my own and out of sight, smile for once, and th-th-th-th-thrive, on, the, outside, l-l-l, let me throw the manual to the trenches, and let me strip myself of all my defenses, let me go diagonal when everyone else goes right, let me strategize instead of preparing for a fight, and, got tired of carrying your world on my shoulders, so i threw it away, (i threw it away,) so i threw it away, and i won't help you look for it, okay? i felt all cramped up, and shut in, mingling with your blabber, now i'm amped up, and laughing, cause i decided that I'd rather, build a door and crawl to the light, left on my own and out of sight, smile for once, and th-th-th-th-thrive, on, the, outside, (yeah, i built a door and crawled to the light) (so i could smile for once) and be alright on the outside! kept tapping the glass for so long, that it shattered into a billion pieces, sticking around yeah felt wrong, had to sprint away from all the speeches! yeeeeah, i felt all cramped up, and shut in, mingling with your blabber, now i'm amped up, and laughing, cause i decided that I'd rather, build a door and crawl to the light, left on my own and out of sight, smile for once, and th-th-th-th-thrive, on, the, outside, s-s-s-s-survive, on, the, outside!
