Walking outside labyrinthian over
Cracks along under the trees
I know this town grounded in a compass
Cardinal landing in the dogwood
I keep going over it, over and over
My steps iterate my shame
How come every outcome's such a comedown?
Lately afternoon with the shades drawn down
I kept saying I just wanted to see you
Saying, "What's wrong with that?"
Needle shaking outlines in a compass
Every outcome's such a comedown
I knew it when I saw it
Oh, but I did just what I wanted
So, I go through with this
I knew happiness when I saw it
I saw your boyfriend at the Port Authority
It's a sort of fucked up place
Well, I averted my stride on a quick one
He's coming back from going over your place, huh?
I feel like we could forget about it
I feel like I could mellow out
I don't feel undone in a big way
There's nothing really bad to be upset about
Just when I thought I was getting better I
Woke up on the ground
An appointment or a disappointment
A setback or another comedown
As if I needed a reminder
Oh, that I do only what I wanna
So, I go through with this
Walking out in the nighttime springtime
Needling my way home
I saw Leah on the bus a few months ago
I saw some old friends at her funeral
My steps keep splitting my grief through these solipsistic moods
I should call my parents when I think of them
I should tell my friends when I love them
Maybe I should've gone out a bit more
When you guys where still in town
But I got too caught up in my own shit
That's how every outcome's such a comedown
And I knew it when I saw it
Oh, I did just what I wanted
So, I go through with this
I knew happiness when I saw it
And I saw it
Yeah
Cracks along under the trees
I know this town grounded in a compass
Cardinal landing in the dogwood
I keep going over it, over and over
My steps iterate my shame
How come every outcome's such a comedown?
Lately afternoon with the shades drawn down
I kept saying I just wanted to see you
Saying, "What's wrong with that?"
Needle shaking outlines in a compass
Every outcome's such a comedown
I knew it when I saw it
Oh, but I did just what I wanted
So, I go through with this
I knew happiness when I saw it
I saw your boyfriend at the Port Authority
It's a sort of fucked up place
Well, I averted my stride on a quick one
He's coming back from going over your place, huh?
I feel like we could forget about it
I feel like I could mellow out
I don't feel undone in a big way
There's nothing really bad to be upset about
Just when I thought I was getting better I
Woke up on the ground
An appointment or a disappointment
A setback or another comedown
As if I needed a reminder
Oh, that I do only what I wanna
So, I go through with this
Walking out in the nighttime springtime
Needling my way home
I saw Leah on the bus a few months ago
I saw some old friends at her funeral
My steps keep splitting my grief through these solipsistic moods
I should call my parents when I think of them
I should tell my friends when I love them

But I got too caught up in my own shit
That's how every outcome's such a comedown
And I knew it when I saw it
Oh, I did just what I wanted
So, I go through with this
I knew happiness when I saw it
And I saw it
Yeah
