mavenyx – seashore lyrics
[chorus]
laying on the seashore
yeah, is he sure?
i can’t say if this’ll ever get me any reward
play another b chord
on the keyboard
switching my directions
yeah, i gotta take a detour
gotta take a detour
all my life, i never felt this anxious before
always said i wanted less
but now i need more
need more sp+ce and time
’cause that’s my greatest resource
fate’s a weak force (yeah)
[verse 1]
if actions speak louder than words
then silence speaks louder than actions
i’m running outta distractions
tryna keep balance intact, it’s
hard to be active in absence
not even having a tactic…
i’m tryna find a time to tap in like haptics
i hear the sound of the birds
and i feel the hours are passing
and every minute, i’m thinking about
this powerful passion
but having second thoughts
let the plot unfold, i repeat out of habit
yeah, i don’t know if there’s potential
if we could’ve had it
yeah, i don’t know if there’s potential
a week and a half in
struggle to reason the madness
tugging the seams in the fabric ’til it unravels
i’m going to sleep on a mattress
and dreaming of what could have been
if i tried to redeem all my past sins
need to appreciate the now
and stop fearing the after
just kinda stings, the only time we talk
is when it starts with me as an actor
that’s ironic, ain’t it? that is
i spent so long pretending
i became it out of practice (d+mn)
[chorus]
laying on the seashore
yeah, is he sure?
i can’t say if this’ll ever get me any reward
play another b chord
on the keyboard
switching my directions
yeah, i gotta take a detour
gotta take a detour
all my life, i never felt this anxious before
always said i wanted less
but now i need more
need more sp+ce and time
’cause that’s my greatest resource
fate’s a weak force (yeah)
[verse 2]
and all the things i texted you
were genuine and natural
but there were things i held onto
i couldn’t tell you, after all
i can’t ruin this now, i’d hate myself forever
going on a stealth endeavor
never been so tenuous, irrational
it’s strenuous to pass it off as
anything but delving into past involvements
prolly not the soundest call
hope that we’re compatible
’cause can’t you see
how bad i want to make this work
but lately words aren’t
good enough to capture love
fashioned up an image of myself
that i can’t replicate
patching up divisions
would’ve helped if i had never made
lemons i’ve been given
only good for sour lemonade
tryna make the most of now
but i still yearn for yesterdays (yeah)
i said i’d never date
hope that wasn’t prophecy
but probably, i estimate
long as i keep waiting
for the moment to present itself
the best thing and the only thing i can do
is to hesitate (yeah)
[chorus (x2)]
laying on the seashore
yeah, is he sure?
i can’t say if this’ll ever get me any reward
play another b chord
on the keyboard
switching my directions
yeah, i gotta take a detour
gotta take a detour
all my life, i never felt this anxious before
always said i wanted less
but now i need more
need more sp+ce and time
’cause that’s my greatest resource
fate’s a weak force (yeah)
