about

Recorded by Ben Morey at Submarine Sound Studio in Rochester, NY.

lyrics

anxiety
has got me living in a tide pool
and whether tide is high or low
i feel it all the time
somewhere in my mind

it's a thick mire
avoiding any tripwire
that could signal friendly fire
somewhere in my brain
so many times a day

what if i could
set it somewhere
on the kitchen table

and forget it
as i rush out
like i do
with my keys

what if i could
set it somewhere
on the kitchen table

and leave
and leave

as i stand here
i'm conquering my worst fear
i am smiling ear to ear
insisting that i'm well
and hoping you can't tell

that on the inside
there's nowhere that i can hide
though i've often tried and tried
i cannot make it right
it keeps me up at night

what if i could
set it somewhere
on the kitchen table

and forget it
as i rush out
like i do
with my keys

what if i could
set it somewhere
on the kitchen table

and leave
and leave
and leave

and leave.
