lyrics

Boredom sings it’s spring again
When the things that I don’t understand
Always prove more important than I thought
But when my latest good intention fails
I’ll trace snail trails and comet tails
Across a long-outdated treasure map where repeated erasures mark the spot

And if I ever did come back
I’d stand beside you, but not with you
Start but not continue
To tell you only what I won’t retract

I’ll drive away this summer day
Maybe the things I never meant to say
Can rest safely at the bottom of the lake
But still I leave a paper trail
Of heavy-handed fairy tales
About a prince who was himself the curse some princess sent him on a quest to break

And if I ever did come back
(I won’t be there to catch you)
I’d stand beside you, but not with you
(The arrow points outside the heart)
I’ll bolt even if you
Give me all the breathing room I ask

And if I ever did come back
I’d stand beside you, but not with you
No excuse to give you
Just my half-assed disappearing act
