Who you are not

I know we all want to chase the sun
but I’m the only man who gets burnt for fun
God bless this heat & my cancerous tan
and I stand before you with these holes in my hands

Just so you know, instead of be held, I’d rather behold
And it shows - I’ve never been whole

We might be the same
but if we don’t notice we might be okay
Despite the cliché, I’m just out of focus
but you like it that way

Can I speak half-truths with my smart mouth?
May I feel your ears, with cheer full down
Extend my reach, but I won’t reach out
I’d rather watch you drown than admit my drought

So you know, instead of be held, I’d rather behold
And it shows - I’ve never been whole

We might be the same
but if we don’t notice we might be okay
Despite the cliché, I’m just out of focus
but you like it that way

You tell me I’m a bad man with your bad mouth
that’s how I know it’s meant to be
I know we all want to chase the sun
But I’m the only man who gets burnt for fun

We might be the same
but if we don’t notice we might be okay
Despite the cliché, I’m just out of focus
but you like it that way

We don’t know who you are not
