Local Man Ruins Everything (Nervous Energies)

[00:17.36] The fountain was off
[00:19.13] This is the first time I've been back to the city in months
[00:23.83] I'm trying to hold it together, but irony's found cracks in the foundation
[00:30.23] And you know
[00:32.81] I tried so hard to be some great white hope
[00:36.28] I can't shake the feeling that tonight I'm gonna end up shaking in bed alone
[00:43.12] I'm not a self-help book
[00:44.64] I'm just a fucked up kid
[00:46.33] I tried to take my own advice and I did
[00:50.48] Now I'm waiting for it to sink in
[00:56.46] Expect me standing tall
[00:58.29] Back against the wall
[01:00.44] 'Cause what I learned was
[01:02.10] It's not about forcing happiness
[01:05.47] It's about not letting sadness win
[01:10.98]
[01:21.28] I don't have roses in the closet
[01:24.69] But I've got pictures in a drawer
[01:28.20] It's everything left in me
[01:31.03] Not to stare at them anymore
[01:34.47] Oh, I walked upstairs and shaved my beard
[01:40.06] 'Cause I felt like I was holding sadness here
[01:44.87] (I was holding sadness here)
[01:48.18]
[02:01.32] I'm not a self-help book
[02:02.84] I'm just a fucked up kid
[02:04.53] I had to take my own advice and I did
[02:08.58] Now I'm waiting for it to sink in
[02:14.51] Expect me standing tall
[02:16.55] Back against the wall
[02:18.79] 'Cause what I learned was
[02:21.23] It's not about forcing happiness
[02:23.90] It's about not letting the sadness win
[02:26.65] I don't have roses in the closet
[02:29.96] But I've got pictures in a drawer
[02:33.41] It's everything left in me
[02:36.49] Not to stare at them anymore
[02:40.58] I'm not a self-help book
[02:42.50] I'm just a fucked up kid
[02:44.02] I'm not a self-help book
[02:45.71] I'm just a fucked up kid
[02:47.42] I'm not a self-help book
[02:49.19] I'm just a fucked up kid
