lyrics

I didn't heed my own advice.
My mistake.

These ghosts keep biting their thumbs
and turning unseen noses up at you, love,
when you waste an hour or two or three
deciding what takeout to eat: Greek or Chinese.
Well, you slept in past ten,
and now the afternoon's dead,
and the evening's ahead.
So go put on some pants,
'cus you've got plans.

I didn't heed my own advice.
My mistake.

This house has mostly good bones.
In all my work, I try to leave them alone.
But I've found there's a room in every home
you steer your guests away from, keeping it unknown
from family and friends,
because it's not finished yet,
and it's best in your head.

It's hard enough just to stay
all the way awake all day.
If mindfulness takes you
all the left steps,
then failures walk you the rest of the way.
When I fuck up like hell,
it's just as well.

I didn't heed my own advice.
My mistake.
