lyrics

I’ve become a coffee person
I take my trash out each day at five
And it feels weightless every time
I turn to embers at the dime
And it’s enough to stay alive
I used to pack my lunches
Now I choose which things I leave behind
And it’s enough to stay alive

I’ve become a coffee person
I take it with almond milk and cry
And it feels farther every time
I want back everything that’s mine
Why’d they take everything that’s mine

My old CDs are far away
Wonder if they were played today
Wonder if I’ll ever feel right
Please tuck my CDs in at night
And I still miss my childhood dog
And go for lonely adult walks
And watch the families at bay
I don’t quite know what I would say
If I saw my past self in em

I’ve become a coffee person
I go to the gym five times a week
But I’m still tired I’m still weak
Maybe if I just got more sleep
And I send thank you cards
But these days I don’t reazlly get much mail
I’ve been withered without fail
And I will grow wings and a tail
Before I’m anything but frail

I’ve become a coffee person
I feel weird emotions at the mall
Or other times nothing at all
It’s still so much, I still feel small
When is the part you get it
When does it all finally connect
Nobody ever, ever said
It really wouldn’t in the end
