Jake

Going as far as I can go
Away from here
Away from you Jake
And the hole you've sunk me into
I wish that I could belong here with you
And just be
But that's not all that I'm about

Your life is built on accidents
Like meeting me
You write everything down in your grocery list
People do this
Even insects buzz like airplanes
Why can't we
Fly away?
I'm going as far as I can go

Your dad died
'Cause his heart hurt
Arching away, his forty five years
Dragging your mom along
Well I don't want that
And neither do you, neither do you

If I am not fun
And I am not interesting
Perhaps I am not interested in you
Neither are you
You can't stand in front of an oven
If it's warm
If it's fumes are dangerous

Going as far as I can go
Away from here
Away from you Jake
And the hole you've sunk me into
I wish that I could belong here with you
And just be
But that's not all that I'm about
To do
