Lyrics

It hit me soft enough I didn't stop Or plan to change my course When all I needed was a little shove To help me out the door Oh mine's a hopeless home that never seems To let me know I've shuttered out the view But that's what we need sunlight for To creep below the cracks and to Remind me there's a window And that window has a latch But I'm holding up a stone so please step back Because this rock is coming through And I'm swallowing gum Lodged in my throat Spit out my words or damnit I'll choke I'm swallowing Gum I'm swallowing gum Lodged in my throat Spit out my words or damnit I'll choke I'm swallowing Gum So maybe I will move away and Load up all my things so I can Drive along the coast and see What rainy weather brings If you told me it would dry out all my papers Maybe I wouldn't have gone But that the thing about me You just have to understand I'm still sure as hell short-sighted And my vision's going bad I'd have told you it's too tough for me And wouldn't have been more wrong And I'm swallowing gum Lodged in my throat Spit out my words or damnit I'll choke I'm swallowing Gum I'm swallowing gum Lodged in my throat Spit out my words or damnit I'll choke I'm swallowing Gum So I might be missing out on what's Expected of my youth But rites of passage all seem average From my passive point of view Sometimes a sacrifice is needed if You want to be remembered when you're gone And my balance needs to calibrate Before I hit it big But I'll be battling the best of 'em Much sooner than you think Oh my ambitions might beat both my best Intentions but I'll tell you when I'm done And I'm swallowing gum Lodged in my throat Spit out my words or damnit I'll choke I'm swallowing Gum I'm swallowing gum Lodged in my throat Spit out my words or damnit I'll choke to death I know I'm swallowing gum Lodged in my trachea Who'd have thought it'd take that much To wake me up I know I'm blessed but so stubborn when it counts I'm swallowing gum Lodged in my throat Spit out my words or damnit I'll choke I'm swallowing Gum I'm swallowing Gum
