lyrics

Let me adjust the thermostat.
It's one or two degrees off I swear.
I got these spinning, restless fingers
that should calm down in temperate air.
I just can't wait here for
one minute more --
too many errands left to run
and monumental works left to be done.

Or maybe I've too much restraint,
and every step I take is in place.
Satisfied to dice up onions
and paint my kitchen cabinets gray.
Do I just keep waiting for
and open door
before I find the urge to move --
to slide along the groove?
Well, I don't know.

But in time,
I don't wanna overthink no more.
Yeah I'm trying.

Can't barely hear you on the phone.
I'm losing every third or fourth word,
but I can keep the conversation going
by echoing the things that I heard.
We could keep stalling 'till
the ocean stills,
just talking up a great big knot
and failing to convey
a single thought.

But in time,
I don't wanna overthink no more.
Yeah I'm trying.
