I could sing a happy song
Make you feel good for a second
And you'd scroll on to the next
And the next, and I'd be forgotten
So I don't write for you
I don't sing for you
You wouldn't be there if I even
Needed you to
I could sing a happy song
But you don't need it do you
The ones I sing for stop when they hear
Someone who knows their fate
Their goal is not just to see the next thing
But to find something that relates
A stitch to the torn
Blood from the thorn
A mist on the flame
A person who wants them to be healed again
Not someone to urge them to seek for lost things
But to find something real inside
Even if it's a pain you can't hide
They judge me as doom centered
Sex crazed woman hater
Dope fiend and castrated
Stupid and fabricated
And christian or satanist
Terrorist frustrated
But they'll swipe to the right or the left
And forget the things
I say, no matter what effort I try with today
But my fans they need me
I need them they sustain
Any semblance of warmth in the world
Feel any reason to wake up again
And I'm weak and can't do this alone
You're not and you just scroll right on
And that's ok
Cause you won't remember me and I won't remember you
I'll just know I helped some folks like me through
And I know that they'll remember me too
Cause you don't forget dodging the bullet
And it don't really matter
It won't really matter
Cause time just swipes left
Time just swipes right
And the waves of the ocean cleanse all life's memory
The days come and go
We turn to ashes
And that's the way it's supposed to be
Might be something wrong with you and me
It doesn't matter to life
But it matters to me
It matters to me
Love matters to me
