Jeannie and the Bottle

lyrics

You don’t need to pass a test
Already in a mild mess
I see that veil you hide behind
Cuz that’s a weight that’s also mine
My timing was a misfire
My deeds didn’t represent my desires

Cozy when I bite my tongue
Bundled up, won’t come undone
I forgot I locked my mouth
In a vacuum with no sound
Coulda woulda shoulda said
Lazy and brain-dead

Sorry Jeannie
Please believe me
Flaws and folly
Keep me falling

You trip a trap with every step
You’re quite the trooper, ain’t dead yet
But don’t remove those combat shoes
You’re playing games you always lose
Living in a lions den
Think about it now and then

Feel the weight of something big
When someone taught you how to dig
You found yourself down in a hole
Where the empty glass was full
You can dry those eyes
While I compose a couple verses to apologize

Sorry Jeannie
Please forgive me
Can you hear me?
Do you fear me?

All of these years have seen better days
So long, I’m gone, keep soldiering on
Though it all feels wrong
And isn’t it weird
What a person will say in a song?
Is it wrong? And will it bring on a change?

Why can’t I say this to your face?
Maybe it’s cuz I’m the same way
Caught in the maze

Sorry Jeannie
Please believe me
Can you hear me?
You’ve got to believe me
