live at eddie's attic in decatur ga
recorded 6/8/15
lyrics
did i give you everything you needed?
did i shield you from the cold?
did i take the time to listen
to all the things i wasn’t supposed to know?
yeah, i know about your childhood
and what your cousin did to you
i don’t have time for your excuses
i don’t make time to play the fool
well, did nobody treat you right back home?
did somebody let you down?
well did nobody treat you right back home?
put your shoebox back in the ground
i don’t have time for your memories now
yeah i know what i’ve been missing,
yeah i know it isn’t you
i’m trying to find something that’s easy,
not fake the love you’re trying to prove
you think i like to be your counselor?
you think i love it when i’m right?
i don’t like knowing all the answers
takes all the learning out of my life
well, did nobody treat you right back home?
did somebody let you down?
well did nobody treat you right back home?
put your shoebox back in the ground
i don’t have time for your memories now
i’m not your doctor, i’ll never be
so don’t set your sights on marrying me
sure i understand you, yeah i know you best
but i’ve yet to find a girl who can handle my head
i don’t have time for all your problems
i’ve got heartache of my own
at least I found a way of dealing
outside of running or going back home
you found a place for all your feelings
in your shoebox in the dirt
well you try to express and get it all off your chest
every day takes a little more work
well, did nobody treat you right back home?
did somebody let you down?
well did nobody treat you right back home?
put your shoebox back in the ground
i don’t have time for your memories now
