ESCAPE ROUTES

i was far too sad to try and drink this much caffeine
i was in no shape to think about the things i need
i was making mistakes and i pushed you all away,
i was in no shape i could barely bring myself to eat

I was off looking for some bigger and better things
I was never really happy with what i got
i was busy finding ways to stay to busy to think
i was never really happy being alone with my thoughts.

And i, i just wanted to be there for you,
but i was too busy, planning escape routes

Nowadays i don't have much to offer
But something clicked and i'm ready to try again
Like i could stand to be out in public for once,
like all i really needed was a call, from some old friends

And i, I just wanted to be there for you,
But i was too busy planning escape routes.
And i'll try not to run, i'll try just to stay right here
oh, no promises, it's been a rough year.
