Josie Lyrics by Brutalligators

This House Is Too Big, This House Is Too Small

2021

Yellow ribbons pierce the windowpane and oh my god
I think I've gone and finally found my feet again
Can't help but fall
I just want to feel at home when I’m with you and be myself
Oh hey, I've gone and shown the not quite perfect version
The air is starting to smell fresh again, is that your fault?
Or am I opening myself up to pain
Will I fall short?
I want to find a whole new soundtrack to my life
I'm working hard to figure out if side A starts with you
Let's not call it love right now
Let's just call it hope and somehow
Keep on riding straight and true
And I don't need to make you happy
But I want to
The stereo is writing out the script for us and these old words
For twenty years I thought I knew them well and now they turn
And twist and wind into new shapes and stories and it rings true
So glad I didn’t die before I met you
Let's not call it love right now
Let's just call it hope and somehow
Keep on riding straight and true
And I don't need to make you happy
But I want to
I think I'm doing ok
I figured out how I can do this
I think I'm doing ok
And I’m done with all the fighting
I think I'm doing ok
Break it off and wait for new growth
I think I'm doing ok
And I’m feeling strength from trying
I think I'm doing ok
Give myself time to work on new dreams
I think I'm doing ok
And now there's no need for defending
I think I'm doing ok
And my eyes are facing forwards
I think I'm doing ok
Build a new house up from nothing
