I'm not in first, but baby I'm a nine ball
I’m going fast, it feels like a free fall
I’m not the worst, but I’m a little wrought
The time has past, but I’m still in thought
It’s how it goes
I feel a thirst, for a little mundane
I’m looking for the taste of coffee on Monday
This kind of hurt don’t feel the same
I’ll count my stars, hope it’s a growing pain
But maybe I’m just someone
Somebody some mind or some heart
Maybe I’m just someone
And maybe I’m just someone
Somebody some mind or some heart
But baby I’ll be someone, for you
I feel a burst, coming from inside of me
This dialogue, must be anatomy
You took a turn, found the diagonal
You musta found out, I’m just an optional
But maybe I’m just someone
Somebody some mind or some heart
Maybe I’m just someone
And maybe I’m just someone
Somebody some mind or some heart
But baby I’ll be someone, for you
But maybe I'm just someone
But maybe I'm just someone
Or maybe I'm just no one
But baby I'll be no one, for you

Petrichor

Now I always stop, when I’m in unfamiliar place
Cause I didn’t always know, how to taste
And I never knew that colors, could make a sound
But the leaves turned and I heard music, all around.
And I never knew the touch, of a stone placed long ago
But when I see you I feel the spring wind blow
And I never knew the smell of rain before
Now I look up and I feel, the petrichor
You came to me, in a dream
You showed me your homeland, sat me down by the stream
And you left me quite impressed, it was more than a meal
So I left your house wonderin’, was any of it real?
And if memories, are just senses decayed
If I had known, I woulda stayed
And I shoulda known, that what helps me survive
would be the thing that helps me feel alive
Now I always pause, when I’m in unfamiliar frame
I look around before, I take the blame
And I never felt the touch, of a stone placed long ago
Would you give me up for a chance, at a good throw?
And I never knew the smell, of rain before
Cause now all I see is you, when it pours
Cause now all I see is you, when it pours
But now I look up and I feel the petrichor
