The Effort Is Never Worth The Outcome - Northbound

Writing out letters that I’ll never even send

Drinking black coffee and chain smoking cigarettes

I’m a shade of off white

I’m not quite there yet

Sometimes I think I should sleep around

And collect all the towns spit in my mouth

Your words in my head

I’m blushing red at all you’ve said

And I’m such a clown

From making out to down and out

I don’t need this

Fuck it, I’m out

You pulled me in just to push me out

I can’t get your bottom lip out of my mouth

I’m a shade of dark blue

I’m bruising quickly over you

Sometimes I think we should just chill out

And spend every night glued to my couch

I don’t need more ammo to write another panic song about

And I’m such a clown

From hanging out to kissing now

I could use what you’re about

When you hurt, I hurt to too

And that probably sounds crazy because I just met you

But, when I looked straight at your eyes

Mine dilated twice their normal size

You smoke like you now what you’re doing

So, I’ll pretend I know too

I wish it would start raining

So I could walk and talk and get soaking wet with you

And I’m still in shock that we even talk

I’m still in shock
