lyrics

I drank three coffees and I went to sleep
In a bed full of farts and jealousy
I thought I'd hit my all-time low
Til I saw how far I'd left to go

I’m tired
Goes without saying
So why can’t I forgive myself for
Straying from
The straight and narrow
Like a sparrow
Flying into things

I sat up to write this song
And still every other little thing went wrong
My pencil fell into the guitar hole
And I broke a string trying to take control

I’m tired
Goes without saying
So why can’t I forgive myself for
Straying from
The straight and narrow
Like a sparrow
Flying into things

I banged my toe on the kitchen chair
As if I didn’t see it there
Then I stood up and I hit my head
Fuck this I’m going back to bed

I’m tired
Goes without saying
So why can’t I forgive myself for
Straying from
The straight and narrow
Like a sparrow
Flying into things

Like a sparrow
Flying into things

Like a sparrow
Flying into things
