​my mom is worried about me

[Intro]
Play something good, Dan
Is it just a bunch of piano music?
What is it?
Is this a song you're recording for the album?
I’ll play like ten seconds and then stop it
Am I just supposed to react to this music

[Verse 1]
Maybe I'll go viral off my problems
I don't know
Maybe all my tears gon’ bring some dollar-signs
I don't know, hey
I'm scared to let you in on what I really think
Press pause on my twitter feed
One more time
And I just sit alone inside my bathroom
Too much to think about, I turn it off

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Thank God, my dad's really happy
He's been loving his brand new job
But my life's been a mess and I can't sleep
I'm searching for the purpose in it all
Yeah
Hello, you ’bout to know all my regrets
Let’s just skip the introductions 'cause it’s making me upset
Before you turn the volume up and play this for your friends
Just know that once you get to know me, there's no going back

[Chorus]
Don't you want to stay
In the place [?]
The only thing that makes you get away
Take a trip with me, you can drown in it
Don't you wanna stay?
In the place where my face is?
The reason everbody’s so afraid
Get a ticket at the gate, where it's all going gray like

[Verse 2]
Welcome to the thoughts inside my head, it's getting crazy
Hearing all these noises like it's Brooklyn in the '80s
I've been doing things that I'm not proud of
No one knows
If I could just be a little honest with one soul
Yeah
Way too many nights staring at the ceiling of a hotel
Trying to keep my thoughts together 'fore it all goes to hell
And I know, yeah, what I know

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I met a girl from Calabasas, yeah, she was kinda nice
She asked my why I'm quiet, why I'm anxious every night
I started to explain it, but she tried to run away
I swear this always happens when I say

[Chorus]
Don't you wanna stay
In the place [?]
The only thing that makes you get away
Take a trip with me, you can drown in it

[Bridge]
I'm supposed to tell kids how to live right
When I can barely sleep at night
My dreams are eating me alive
This pressure on myself
I'm swerving off the belt
I think need some help, oh
But they just wish me well, though
I went through two break-ups at the same time
So how could I keep my peace of mind
Started seeing therapists
And they tell me I need Jesus Christ
And I know that, but when they sit down with their notes out
And they look at me with those eyes when I say

[Chorus]
Don't you wanna stay
In the place [?]
The only thing that makes you get away
Take a trip with me, you can drown in it

[Outro]
Wow, this just got really real
I'm closing my eyes for this one
