josh bruce (singer-songwriter) - to whoever is listening lyrics

well, the ocean breathes and swallows
and fire can split into two
if there’s a checklist for what alive is
i ain’t got the cells for proof

i’m stone+cold and stubborn
lack a personality too
make me out to be your star
i’d fall flat and disappoint the room

roses are red, violets are blue
i lack all color and love bad news
sit me upright to see the stars but
i’m light pollution for a million yards

and you’d say i’d hide you from the lights, i’d hide you from the bars
if i was still around i’d be held up in your arms
no more silhouettes and no more whiskey shots before you go on
’cause i’m all love and i’m all you got
remember at the bar when you took a shot
there was ketchup on my top and you cleaned it off
‘fore you leaned in for the kiss that changed it all
and i was so happy but i was so sad
and there were things that i meant that were never said
and i know you know we spin in our heads
do you think in the future we can still be friends?
’cause we were nineteen and we were glowing green
and we were naive about what life could bring
so now you make songs about me and sing
to whoever is listening
well rivers tend to run wild
and the sky lies and cries
the wind dusts off the pollen
and car batteries die

does something make me human?
or does something make me different?
in the mirror, i don’t see a man i see his shadow that’s gone drifting

i’ve got common courtesy
and you’ve got empathy
and if there’s one thing to believe
it’s that i am worth nothing

and you’d say i’d keep you from your fears, i’d stop you shedding tears
i wouldn’t let your nights last longer than years
and i wouldn’t let you leave like you said you would be the last time you were here
and i’d make you fall all the way back in love
with my silly little notes that you love so much
’cause my passenger seat feels so empty and the sp+ce in my shower’s unbelievably clean
and now you’re a big shot and now your songs hot
silent treatment treated me like i was not sought after
and the cold work you’ve done has lasted
well i ain’t mad and i ain’t angry, just used to all the people, how typically treat me
and i didn’t mean any certain thing when i said it’d be best if we let it be
and if this was real and it was really me
i’d say i love you with everything
but now you make songs about me and sing
to whoever is listening
