They Hate Our Freedom

You said "calm down honey and sit real still"
If it's that important, you don't have to yell
When I said "calm down honey and sit real still"
I can hear in your voice you're not feeling well
You said "I'm at the beach with a low flying plane"
Shape the shells beneath my feet

You woke up suddenly at 5 AM
On your mattress on the floor
You called your brother screaming about your taxes this year
And if you were going to jail
And he said "go back to sleep and talk about it in the morning"
You've made a life out of worry
You have trouble doing the right things the right way

I'm humbled when a friendship ends
When you're young everything's out of reach
And then everything falls short
I woke up dreaming about the [?]
Then I lay and thought that we haven't talked in a long time
Cause when I was with you
I mostly just felt alright

You just can't swear
Growing up
Now I'm a lost ball
In your tall grass

And when clean [?] dark side just like it should
This bag it felt sick

On 9/11
Your mom took you to see Legally Blonde

She covered her eyes

We just want to know
That it was alright
We just want to know
That it was alright
