Filling my head with things I don't need to For you Plenty of other things that I should do That's true I'm investing too much time and energy I'm thinking about you more than you're thinking about me But the pawn only moves forward Captures diagonally The queen can do what she wants I'm doing what I want If love's a game like chess It's unwise to guess I'm trying to be patient Trying to trade even Filling my head with things I don't need to because I like you Plenty of other things that I could do That's true

I kinda wanna cry But I don't wanna sing a sad song I'll just lay my head on my pillow Stare at the bugs on my window And sink into my bed

There's a pain in my shoulder from driving too much And I know I shouldn't keep driving Take and Advil And I'm on the go It's a problem for tomorrow There are things in my car that I've got to get fixed It's a hassle, it's driving me crazy But she works for now I know she's trying But she's old I know she's dying There's an ache in my heart and there's no one to blame But myself for getting my hopes up I do it all the time I never learn I'm fond of heartache I love the burn

Given the chance x3 Given the chance x3 I need to say this aloud, I don't mean to alarm But given the chance, I'd love the chance to cause myself harm Driving by the street lights, by the trees, by the deer Maybe if I'm lucky they'll obstruct the street I'm driving on and kill me Being honest, I've got a secret I want to die I'm overwhelmed by the overactivity In my mind The days are bad, then they're good, then they're bad again Save me from this cyclical demise Given the chance x3 There are no happy endings, and you can't change your fate Your guess is as good as mine if I'll make it to tomorrow anyway The impermanence of us and everyone around us I'm not okay with it I'd rather lose myself, than everyone that I have ever loved (It's selfish to say, but I mean it) Being honest, I've got a secret I want to die I'm overwhelmed by the overactivity In my mind The days are bad, then they're good, then they're bad again Save me from this cyclical demise Given the chance x3 Don't worry, If you're reading this, I'm alright Don't fear the disappearance of the sun in the night The days are bad then they're good then they're bad again So I know that good days aren't too far behind Given the chance x3 Given the chance x3

Plasticity of the neuros, change the way your brain folds You don't wanna die, stop saying you do One joke turns to two to three, then it's your mentality And you wonder why you're sad all the time I'll give you a reason I'll give you a reason I'll give you a reason Since you need a reason To be sarcastic means you don't mean it But when you say it all the time, say it all the time Your brain perceives it as something you want Something you crave To misbehave in the worst of ways So instead of saying kill me, replace it with a yeet Rewiring your brain s not a simple feat But just like your 123s, your ABCs, your neuroplasticities Your 123s, your ABCs, your neuroplasticities Plasticity of the brain norm, change the way your thoughts form Give your self a chance to think a positive thought One joke turns to two to three, then it's your mentality Go back in time to how you used to be lalalalalalala To be sarcastic means you don't mean it But when you say it all the time, say it all the time Your brain perceives it As something you want Something you crave So make it something positive Be kind to your brain

Close your eyes, and picture the wrinkles you'll have When you're 45 and tired You'll have seen it all Been to more weddings than you can count And funerals too Your body's changed, It does things it never used to But your mind's the same, It always will be And you'll look back on today And laugh at how little you knew But you turned out okay I hope Breath in and breath out Catalog all these happy moments Incredible fountains of joyous days past Your laugh-lines are crazy, crows feet deep and here to say Incredible stories you'll tell your children someday You'll try to lose weight, change your diet on New Years But you'll feel great, aging peacefully And you'll look back on today And laugh at how little you knew But you turned out okay I hope That in 2042 In 2042 In 2042, you'll have what you always wanted In 2042, you're a stranger to regret In 2042, you'll be stressed but you'll be carefree In 2042
