​by the creek Lyrics by kais ☥

2023

[Verse 1]
I wish I weren't so kind to people I don't know
They step all over me, got dirt all on my throat
And as the time flies by, I think that I might choke
This rope it follows me, it follows far from home
These bones have yet to see the depth of all these trees
This forest I will go, it's right beside the creek
I'll meet you here again when time passes you by
I'll wait for you instead of passing on my life
[Verse 2]
As I walked through the green of the spruce, I heard your laughter
Please tell me to stop, I'm afraid of the after
Every time I talk, it just feels like it don't matter
Every time I walk, I feel my bones slowly fracture
Why does everybody use me, then just push me aside?
Babe, is there a reason you can't look in my eyes?
I can't talk to anybody, not even my closest
So I had to ask myself, "Why do I even try?"
[Bridge]
If only you would focus (It gets hard)
Then you could see what matters most
It's not that hard to notice
That you've been talking to a ghost
[Chorus]
I'm losing my damn mind, man, everyone just acts the same
You can't tell me how to feel, please don't tell me it's okay
You ain't my friend, you ain't my bro, so I don't care 'bout what you say
I do this shit all by myself while you sit back and waste the day
My throat is getting tight, it's so hard for me to speak
These woods are dark 'til dawn, so how could I even see
In the morning when you come looking for me
Don't be surprised if you find my body hanging by the creek
[Outro: Brad Pitt & Edward Norton]
What would you wish you'd done before you die?
I-I don't know (Come on, get in the right lane)
This question, if you died right now, how would you feel about your life?
I don't know, I wouldn't feel anything good about my life
Is that what you want to hear me say?
