Bright Eyes "Nothing Gets Crossed Out" lyrics

Nothing Gets Crossed Out

Well the future's got me worriedSuch awful thoughtsMy head's a carousel of picturesThe spinning never stopsI just want someone to walk in frontAnd I'll follow the leaderLike when I fell under the weight of a schoolboy crushStarted carrying her books and doing lots of drugsI almost forgot who I wasBut I came to my sensesNow I'm trying to be assertiveI'm making plansGonna rise to the occasion yeahMeet all their demandsBut all I do is just lay in bedAnd hide under the coversYeah I know I should be braveBut i'm just too afraid of all this changeAnd it's too hard to focus through all this doubtI keep making these to-do lists but nothing gets crossed outWorking on the record seems pointless nowWhen the world ends who's gonna hear it?But I'm trying to take some comfort in written wordsYeah, Tim, I heard your album and it's better than goodWhen we get off tour I think we shouldHang and black out together'Cause I been feeling sentimental for days gone byAll the summers singing, drinking, laughinWasting our timeRemember all the songs and the way we smiledIn those basements made of musicBut now I've got to crawl to get anywhere at allI'm not as strong as I thought

So when I'm lost in a crowdI hope that you'll pick me outHow I long to be foundThe grass grew high, I laid downNow I'm waiting for a handTo lift me up, help me standI've been laying so lowDon't wanna lay here no moreDon't wanna lay here no more

Everything that happens is supposed to beAnd it's all predetermined can't change your destinyGuess I'll just keep movingSomeday maybe I'll get to where I'm going
