Don't Wanna Let You Down

Incalculably

We shift in our bones

At our seams

We’re not what we were

Nor are we what we’re going to be

So where does that leave us right now

Except gloriously unaware of how this will turn out

I’ll be careful with you

If you leave your light on for me

My wandering heart

Is freer in your proximity

And if you can’t rely on me

Then that makes me exactly half the man

That I’d like to be

And I don’t wanna let you down

No I don’t wanna let you down

So I’m gonna buy you a house and a dog

And I’ll try to stick around / we’re gonna settle down

Sometimes I fear

We are all but corks on the sea

Sinking by increments

Or pulled by invisible tides constantly

But, if our minds can be made up things

Then that’s what separates us

From that frightening entropy

And I’ve tried empathy

Some crows get the better of me

With my eyes to the sky

Sometimes I feel like flying from here

But I’d walk on broken glass

Just to hold onto some sense

Of my own certainty

Hold your moments

Keep them in your pockets now

When it’s the hours

That begin to feel like years
