And I don’t know what’s been eating Gilbert
And I don’t know where all my socks ran off to
And If I did I’d have a matching pair on now
It might seem funny, but I’m not laughing
Perspective changes everything
See I’m not matching
You think that’s funny
But it’s one more thing I don’t have going right
My momma yelled at me for losing all my socks
But I don’t know when they went
And I don’t know why they did
Perspective changes everything
See I’m not matching
You think that’s funny
But it’s one more thing I don’t have going right
I really wish I didn’t always lose my socks
But I don’t know why they went
And I’m happy they didn’t tell me

Something Comfort

I always thought you were behind me
But I was in your way
I didn’t want to know your worries
They haunt me today
And Motion City said “everything’s alright”
Not that I need it
But all I want is time
Take me back
Back to when SoCo was just a band
Take me back
Back to when my dad would catch me when I’d land
Take me back
Back to when their was no fence between
My neighbors’ house and mine
And I’d be over all the time
You’re growing older
But it seems like I am staying the same age
It’s so damn hard to make a plan
When everyone around me seems to leave
Come back again
Just to leave me alone in the dark
That you always promised you’d follow me into
I miss semester one of college
In Ithaca
I couldn’t tell delicates from dry clean only
But lucky for me
My mom was on the line
Death Cab said you’d promise to be with me
To the bitter end
Into the dark
We thought we knew the words
But we didn’t know the meaning
And if we did, we wouldn’t have sang them
But would still today

I’m a mess
And you can’t help that
I sorta thought you’d be the one to
Despite the words that my friends run to
But their legs got tired
So they retired back to themselves
They wouldn’t sympathize
Until I saw your eyes
It was all my fault
And my own doing
It didn’t have to be
But we all know where the fuck it got me
When you weren’t there
I still felt your breath
Right behind me
Yelling in my ear
Some words I won’t forget
I spin summers in my head
On repeat hit stop instead
My VCR is telling me
That I should forget you
I thought you’d be more than something
For me to pass the time
And I’m just happy
You haven’t done this to anyone else
And if I played dead
You wouldn’t even notice
I’d be Joel
You are my Clem
And I don’t know why I still got it
This memories of
“I could die right now.
I’m just happy.
I’ve never felt the before.
I’m just exactly where I want to be.”
I’m just exactly where I want to be
I wasn’t where I need to be

Bad Knees

See I’m not disappointed
I’ve learned what to expect
From me, myself and others
It’s usually neglect
Because growing up
Doesn’t come with a manual
You’re just thrown out to the wolves
Til they tear you to shreds
And there’s nothing left
I always thought when I’d get old
I’d have bad knees not broken dreams
But I was wrong
And since I was seventeen
I’ve had bad luck
Never been good enough
But the texts from my family say otherwise
And growing up
Was never a fear to me
I always thought it meant
Watching The Price is Right
On a color TV
I always thought when I’d get old
I’d have bad knees not broken dreams
But I was wrong
And since I was seventeen
I’ve had been knees and broken dreams
They came so soon
I was wrong
I can’t reach these stars
With my head underground
But am I good for something else?
I thought that you were behind me
I guess that I was in your way
Twenty years of photographs
Twenty years in books we’ll never see
