The Sciences

All my life I’ve been a scientist
At least in the simplest sense of the word
I spend my days conducting experiments
trying to make sense of this world
As a babe I started with Geology
Crawling around & feeling the Earth
To this day it’s still one of my favorites
But so many forget its worth
Then one day I discovered biology
Found all of the parts & wondered their roles
I became quite fixated on physiology
& it gave me some new goals
So I met a boy who taught me 'bout chemistry
He started a spark & I burst into flames
Turned out only I was combustible
He just didn’t burn the same
I started digging up old feelings of rejection
An emotional archaeologist who just couldn’t let go
I found some bones in everyone else's closets
& they told me there’s room to grow
So I did a stint in modern psychology
Took all of my friends & I put them on shelves
Wasted time practicing psychoanalysis
When I should’ve been looking, I should've been looking at myself
I had climbed to the top of my ego
Certain that I was going to soar
But physics never fails to take the wind right from your sails
And bring you plummeting to the floor
Now I try to be much more logical
I don’t mess with the fallacies, I focus on truth
I like to nullify all the old hypotheses
That I made in my ignorant youth
All my life I’ve been a scientist
At least in the simplest sense of the word
I spend my days conducting experiments
& trying to make sense of this crazy world
All my life I’ve been a scientist
At least in the simplest sense of the word
I spend my days conducting experiments
& trying to make sense of this world

Stick Around

Some days you’ll feel the pain
Like never ending rain
Some days youth dart will break
Until you think it’s all you can take
But little sister can’t you see
That’s not how it has to be
Little brother don’t look down
Just take a breath and turn around
Cause it gets better
As we get older
Some loves grow warmer
Some friends grow colder
And there may always be a handful of fools
Trying to bring you down
Oh, but stick around.
When everyday’s a fight
Just to wake up and survive
You know you don’t need to hide
Just find the strength you have inside
We don’t always know the way
But I promise that’s okay
Just brush the hate right off your skin
and don’t you ever let them win
Cause it gets better
As we get older
Some loves grow warmer
Some friends grow colder
And there may always be a handful of fools
Trying to bring you down
Oh, but stick around.
Cause it gets better if you let it.
This life's worth living
Don't you forget it
Although sometimes it may seem
That all of your dreams
Are crumbling to the ground
Oh, stick around.

Comfortable

I put in
8 hours at work
before I come home
Oh, I wanna clear my head
of everything I know
All the trials & tribulations of the day
I wanna wash them all away.
Let me slip into something more comfortable
Let my hair down low
More comfortable
I just let it all go
Cause it’s just you and me
and into your arms is where I’ll be slipping.
You work hard
Everyday
& it wears you down
But you only let it show
When nobody’s around
When you’re tired of being strong, I’ll set you free
Baby, just come come home to me
& you can slip into something more comfortable
Let your hair down low
More comfortable
Just let it all go
Cause it’s just you & me
& into my arms is where you’ll be slipping
But when the weekend comes
we go wild
We lock the doors, & don’t let anyone inside
Soon enough we know our fun will end
But Monday night we start it all again
When we slip into something more comfortable
Let Our hair down low
More comfortable
We just let it all go
Cause it’s just you & me
& into your arms is where I'll be slipping
We can slip into something more comfortable
Let Our hair down low
More comfortable
Moving nice and slow
Cause it’s just you & me
& into my arms is where you’ll be slipping
