foaly - we're gonna do less and we're gonna do worse

I’ve already made my exit  before I’ve even made my entrance.  wasn’t ready for any small talk  even to hang around at all.  I’ll catch my friends another time When I’m feeling more alive  I think I’m gonna just stay home  I think I’m gonna just stay home  I think I’m gonna just stay in  And try to not overthink again  (Ryan) Save me save me anxiety to chase these  thoughts that keep me up at night  I’m sorry I’ve been hazy lately lately  Even I started to hate me Even I started to hate me  (Eichlers) i already made my bed & lied in it and ive woke up like every single hour since i cant sleep in always thinking always tossing & turning always anxious & worried pull the covers off pillow talk kick my feet out its too hot pull the covers off ive had enough  kick my feet out ive had enough  I think I’m gonna just stay home  I think I’m gonna just stay home  I think I’m gonna just stay in  And try to not overthink again
2.
I can’t fall asleep on caffeine  Anymore  It keeps me up to think All about how I Feel uncomfortable  Around my old friends  I still can’t tell if I  I am stuck at twenty four.  An old voice sings  A song I know  Am I lost in things I used to mourn?  All the melodies and notes  That I sung  They have grown up with me They have changed like me What do they mean now? Should I be concerned? Or should I let them go? Am I stuck at twenty four? 
3.
I wanna be  like the flowers  In the field  Blooming. X2 Carving mountains through soft soil Now the fields are given life  Up and through the dirt and weeds The field it aches and wonders why.  Pathway beat below the trees The flowers choose to grow around  You never know the dirt beneath Until your hands they feel the ground.  (Roger) Seems there's always something Leading to this taste An absence of sensation A numbness, a waste Seems there's always something (Something) Leading to this taste (This taste) An absence of sensation A numbness, a waste Growing from something.  Turning into nothing. 
4.
I stand around to feel  Part of the conversation  Thank you for letting me  Exist around you.  Not everyone I know  Takes away my energy  I shouldn’t be alone  All of the time.  I need to get myself out of this bed My friends help me get me out of my head I need to get myself out of this mess My friends help me get me out of my head I have to keep in mind  I surround myself with People who are kind  And generous  I’m not unworthy of  The attention they give It’s not all by luck  they stick around  I need to get myself out of this bed My friends help me get me out of my head I need to get myself out of this mess My friends help me get me out of my head
5.
I will no longer know myself  In a sea of my belongings. Without them am I anything?  I don’t know how to let them go.  I feel like I have gathered everything.  I have no room for more cluttering  I can’t let new things take up old space.  I will no longer know myself  In a sea of my belongings. Without them am I anything?  I don’t know how to let them go. Have I put flawed importance in these things  If I don’t let them go am I progressing?  If I keep them around am I regressing?

Huge thanks to all of my talented musician friends who contributed to this crazy idea of a demo that I dreamt up. It certainly wouldn't be what it is without the help of Russ, Greg, Jade, Justin, Shelby, Ryan, Dan, Adam, Roger, and Matt. They all killed it. Everyone of them have a band that is incredible and worth checking out.
