I Locked My Time Capsule

We were born night owls

The warm air makes our eyes glow

Summer makes our heads spin

And the smell of hot pavement

Making rain rise like spirits

Holy water still freezes come winter

We drink from the sprinklers

The neighborhood left on

And use them as metronomes

For our walk home

For our walk home

Just do what you can to do what you love

And be mindful when someone out there gives a shit

I don't where I'm going

But it's where I want to be

It's where I want to be

Passing by this school yard

There's a cavity you can't see

Down at least three feet deep

If it was our past inside of that box

I wouldn't just bury it beneath

I'd keep it locked

My Nativity scene would be the people sharing this floor

Instead of a care let's head through the downstairs door

Half renovated basements make great men

And they're great men

Just do what you can to do what you love

And be mindful when someone out there gives a shit

I don't where I'm going

But it's where I want to be

It's where I want to be

This place holds my attention like a presidential speech

But makes my stomach like the college campus

The first line was written on

Just do what you can to do what you love

And be mindful when someone out there gives a shit

I don't where I'm going

But it's where I want to be

It's where I want to be

It's where I want to be
