Almost Everything Lyrics

Something might happen but nothing will be never ending
Right from the start I told you I can't spend the night
Forget all the feelings
Remember the sessions
How we made a connection
With the lambs from my dreams looking up at your hands
And your hands pointing up at the lights


Yeah, there are nights I get terrified
I'm sure you get terrified too
So hey won't you show me a sign
If I'm getting through to you
I'm still pretty into you


The bus it rolled up into Franklin at dawn and everything seemed super slo-mo
The Waffle House waitress that asked us if we were Pink Floyd

Sat in the back of the theater just drinking and talking
About movies and Krishna and hardcore and Jesus and joy


Yeah there are nights I get terrified
I'm sure you get terrified too

So hey won't you show me a sign
If I'm getting through to you

When the lights come up
I can't see so much
I can hear you breathe
I can feel almost everything
We checked into Methodist
We met with some residents
They maxed out my medicine
And let me back loose again
Went to some movie. It was loud dumb and bloody
The third act took place in a wormhole
The hero ascended to heaven
Then we headed home
Got blocked at the exits by medics with stretchers
Finally they said just forget it
The kid that went down isn't dead
He just can't find his phone

Yeah there are nights I get terrified
I'm sure you get terrified too
So hey won't you show me a sign
If I'm getting through to you

I can hear you breathe
I can feel almost everything
Almost everything
