about

A song about wanting to be there for someone even in the face of the most turbulent situations.

lyrics

Hey dear are you listening
I know that words are so blasé
but if you think that I’m messing around
Then I am lost at what to say

The line I walk is straight for sure
I have no route to detour
with all the searching, hard lines carved in the face
I swear this is no mistake.

Umbrella’s open, and everything’s okay
Just brace yourself for the levy when it breaks
I won’t give up, but would you let me slip away
If I can't stay awake.

Hey dear are you listening
I know you think you’re so cliché
and I know that you’re not messing around
still I am lost at what to say

I’ve never been through this before—
have it all but wanting more
with all this searching it seems i’ve lost my place
don’t want to be your mistake

I’m drenched in sadness, lost out in the rain
still questioning if everything will be okay
please don’t give up, would you let me slip away
if I became deranged

Oh therapy could you weave the way
umbrella’s open, we’ll be okay
please don’t give up, would you let me slip away
if i can’t stay awake

Corolla red says you need stay
stop questioning if we’ll be okay
i won’t give up, but would you let me slip away
if i became, if i became, if i became, if i became
deranged
