[Verse 1]
It's almost like it’s glowing, it's an analog TV
Chiming in and glitching out
Then sending images to me
It's the future - feel it coming
Feel it tapping on my shoulder
I feel good, then I feel great, then I feel low, then I feel lower
Then I found blessings, hidden messages in older treasure chests when I’d been storing them away for one cold winter in the desert
Words are pouring from my fingers
I can feel you in the weather
I fall in, then I fall out
I'd like to stay here until I'm better
[Pre-Chorus]
(Just search your feelings to the sky
There's still more there than meets your eye)
[Chorus]
No oh, no oh, no oh, no oh, now it is just me who thinks I'm overthinking every breath that I breathe?
Am I just overloading?
Am I short circuiting?
I don't know, but I know it's the tension of the in-between
(I guess the compression's a metaphor for my stressing)
[Verse 2]
Sugar and gold
I’m on the road, now I’m in Cali
On a tour - Am I in Cali?
Or in bed, or in the valley of my soul?
I watched them war, then burst into a thousand pixels
I collected every one and wished to never again feel so artificial
Watched them sparkle into crystals
So when the stress calls for my chest
Well, I will know not to feel little
I'll know to watch for your signals
There’s a trickle in the creek
It's washing all of my past clean
It's the future, feel it coming
Help me navigate with ease, lord please
[Chorus]
No oh, no oh, no oh, no oh, now it is just me who thinks I'm overthinking every breath that I breathe?
Am I just overloading?
Am I short circuiting?
I don’t know, but I know it's the tension of the in-between
(I guess the compression's a metaphor for my stressing)
[Bridge]
(I breathe in and hold it in for 3-5 seconds
With every alarm set, with all of my checklists
Trade all my best plans for promised redemption
The wolves of the forest, they've snarled, they're threatened)
I'll trade my possessions for new roots and stems, aw yeah
[Chorus]
No oh, no oh, no oh, no oh, now it is just me who thinks I'm overthinking every breath that I breathe?
Am I just overloading?
Am I short circuiting?
I don't know, but I know it's the tension of the in-between
