Palm Readers

I talk to myself like you talk to a kid after they’ve done a bad, bad thing

Wish you would talk to me tender

Forgot and remembered when you told me to “Get yourself togetherm man”

Early hours of the morning

Tossing and turning

Everyone else in this house is asleep

Wish i could turn on the TV

Pretend like the host on the late show is talking to me

And I’m so damn lonely tonight

Talk to god in the parking lot

Killing my lunch break

I do my best work when I’m in the weeds

told you i’m getting better

I spent all of December in a room full of friends trying to learn how to breathe

81 back to Richmond

Drive all over virginia

I hate it, I love it, I don’t think I’ll ever leave

I’m alone in the attic

Going through Dads stuff

He looks a lot like me

And I’m so damn lonely tonight

So damn lonely tonight

So damn lonely

Palm readers and bad dives

Tracing the past lives

Told her, “You’re close but ain’t you tired, kid”

Spent all my money on dumb stuff

You called me a fuck-up

It’s funny

I’m laughing I think you cracked my ribs

Talked myself off a ledge last night

I hold my head in my hands when it spins

Paint me pretty my eyelids

Radio silence

You look so tired kid

And I’m so damn lonely tonight

 so damn lonely tonight

 so damn lonely tonight

 so damn lonely tonight

Pick me up don’t put me down

Pull my hair back and out of my mouth

I can’t breathe, not for lack of trying

Take me with you I could use a shower

Tell me where I’m gonna be in twenty some odd hours

I can’t breathe, not for lack of trying

Pick me up don’t put me down

Pull my hair back and out of my mouth

I can’t breathe, not for lack of trying

Take me with you I could use a shower

Tell me where I’m gonna be in twenty some odd hours

I can’t breathe, not for lack of trying

I’m trying

And I’m so damn lonely tonight

 so damn lonely tonight

 so damn lonely tonight

 so damn lonely tonight

And I’m so damn lonely tonight

so damn lonely

lonely tonight
