​tap Lyrics by Tomberlin

i don’t know who needs to hear this​.​.​.

2022

[Verse 1]
Tap the heart until I hate myself
Hit the square and rearrange myself
I don't like it, what it does to me
Never makes me wanna laugh or sing

[Verse 2]
Do you think about the trees in the breeze?
How they swing and scream and talk and breathe
I wish I was so tall and green
Swing my branches, only sing for me

[Verse 3]
Talk to strangers like we already met
Even though it hasn't happened yet
Will I be found if I'm never met?
Did the chicken come beforе the egg?

[Verse 4]
I love thе people playing songs in the park
Guitar for babies instead of people in the bars
Do you think they know how good they are?
I think they do, they got kids singing like larks
They go ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 5]
Stopped watching movies that make me feel
And you said, "trash tv is the best meal"
And I reply, "well none of it's real"
You said, "I know and I think that's ideal
But sometimes don't you wanna hit to the heart"
He said he only wondered who would play his part

[Verse 6]
Always wondering about my health
Always wondering if I'll go to Hell
Should take some vitamins
I don't know what to take
And I should sleep more
But I'm always wide awake

[Verse 7]
I'm not a tree
I'm in a forest of buildings
I'm not a singer
I'm just someone who's guilty
Remind me that I don't have to be anything
Remind me that I don't have to be anything
I look for signs on the faces of the buildings
I look for signs on your face of us ending
