Everything Changes

[Verse 1]
Wax-winged and white-robed
Singing I think I could love
Walking in a cloud of smoke
I was all caffeine and Lexapro
Burnt out and free to leave
Man I wish I could believe
I'd get my license, drive away
Flying down the 93
Mm
Mm
Midnight, I'm all alone
Seventeen on my bedroom floor
Sitting in a wedding dress
All the best for you and yours
Used to think someday we'd kiss
Well oh well I'd be remiss
If I ever told you to your face

[Chorus]
Oh why oh why doesn't anything
Ever feel like it's changing?
I find I've been forgetting things
About myself I once knew all the same

[Verse 2]
New love, talk me through
I don't feel like missing you
Thought that I would feel brand new
But it all goes back to messy rooms
I love your smile when you smile at me
Fuck I wish I could believe
Learner driver, seventeen
The middle of an empty street
When I saw the supermoon
I turned away to look at you
Anxious and it's nothing new
Something borrowed, always blue
My friend and I see the same stars
Twenty-one hours apart
Thought it would get easier to love but it's so fucking hard
Lost again, went off my meds
Imagining the consequence
It's just the way you've always been to me

[Chorus]
Oh why oh why doesn't anything
Ever feel like I'm growing now?
I just want to make peace with it
I'm not sure if I know how

[Verse 3]
My baby's dead and school is done
I don't feel like having fun
Laying here for days on end
Work and sleep and cry again
Stay afloat for nine more years
Till it's cool to disappear
All my friends and ghosts all here
Hold my hand and tell me something
I've known grief and I've known love
It's nothing like you thought it was
And I know that my head's fucked up
But you swear that you like me cause

[Outro]
You know everything changes but I hope it all stays the same
You know everything changes but it's all gonna stay the same
You know everything changes but you want it to stay the same
You know everything changes but you want it to stay the same
You know everything changes but you want it to stay the same
You know everything changes but it's all gonna stay the same
