lyrics

they could see you waiting
they could see you in the car
only for a moment
picking light from different starts
I could feel your disappointment
nobody can see the fun but you
party to annoying couples
deep into the night we ditch the group

and the world is part of it
and your friends are part of it
and your brother is part of it
and the kids you love are lost at sea but I'm not
but i'm not

almost at the bus stop
skipping ink in your tattoo
tick a little box for something
something you've been meaning to do
get me when the river is frozen
nobody can see the sun but you
look at where the footprints started,
trace it back to your youth

and the world is part of it
and your friends are part of it
and the dude you like it part of it
and your enemies are building legacies but I'm not
but i'm not

I was in the park last weekend
you would not believe
the way the ground had sussed out
tired and wet and stretched out
made of everything
but we don't gotta do this right now
nobody can be the sun but you
i'm calling from a different orbit
but all I wanna do is to fall into you

and the world is part of it
and your friends are part of it
and your therapist is part of it
and the truth I know is hard to see but I'm not
but i'm not
