I come from a town named after a rock
A house with open windows and a two-car garage
We would go to sleep and leave the doors unlocked
And so I never learned to keep my guard up
Learned how to protect myself from threats
But there was nothing waiting
In the culdesac to get you walking home

Say anything, but what is on your mind
Say anything, but what is on your mind

I had this friend who never learned to share
He had a German Shepherd, closer than a sister
We would walk her to the store
And shoplift from the aisles
And even though I knew that it was wrong I went along with it
I never learned how to pronounce the word "no"
The path of least resistance

The day that it was over we were playing in the backyard
When his German Shepherd sank her teeth into my side
They had to put her down then
We were never friends again
He said I killed her
He said it was my fault that he had to live without her
Now everything is fucked
There was so much shame
I've never been the same

Say anything, but what is on your mind
Say anything, but what is on your mind

Everybody fell in love with your new album
And I have never fully forgiven you for that
I know that it's petty and I know that it's wrong
The friendly competition is starting to get personal
And I want you to listen up
Cuz I'm only gonna say this once, so you better listen up
You're my hero
I love you and your art

Say anything, but what is on your mind
Say anything, but what is on your mind

If we seal our mouths together
And pass air back and forth
Would we get high?
Would we get high?

If we seal our mouths together
And pass air back and forth
Would we get high?
Would we get high?

I wanted to include a voicememo in this part of the song of our voices
As a way to transport listeners to that period in my life
I've spent so much time thinking about childhood
And what it was like to be surrounded by those I love
So I found one--listened to it
Couldn't believe some of the things I was saying
I was so embarrassed by myself
So I decided not to include the recording on this song
But instead record something new as some sort of gesture of moving past that
So I decided to record this instead
As some sort gesture to myself that I've moved on or grown in some way
It scared me
I can't believe I sounded so fucking stupid
Maybe my childhood wasn't what I thought it was
Come out come out wherever you are
Maybe I wasn't the person I thought I was
Ready or not here I come
I doesn't matter if the picture's blurry
Maybe my friends weren't the people I thought they were
These recordings have been kinda my way of like processing that
Or some sort of romanticized version of that
