myrlin - i know lyrics

[verse one]

she says “myrlin, sometimes your certain
other times your afraid of everything.”
commitment is what she means, especially
cuz the future is such a scary thing to me
i can barley see
how we gonna pay rent next week
let alone far enough down to road to see a family

but i dream
and she’s there beside me
watchin’ laughin’ while little babies bounce on my knee
sayin, “daddy! daddy!”

oh, my-my, i think i’m afraid of being lonely
the other night i called my homie, he told me
that he’s with his fam and he can’t break free

i listen to phone ring, all alone, all by myself
look at these empty bottles of beers in front of me and no one else

how many streets i crossed? battles i fought and lost?
how many vagrant thoughts
do i drift upon until i’m stuck untying these knots?
like i’m sure that i love you more than me
but if i really loved you best i’d love the most of me
that needs the most flourishing
free of addictive rhythms it’s a vicious
self imposed prison i break down to rebuild it
i break it down to rebuild it
i break it down to rebuild it
i break it down to rebuild it

[bridge]

he be runnin’ a runnin’ a numbin’ a numbin’ ah whoa whoa whoa
she be runnin’ a numbin’ a numbin’ a numbin’ ah whoa whoa whoa

[chorus]

i know we got these problems
i know i want to solve em’
i know we must grow old
but i want our love to blossom

one argument turns into everything
old wounds open and we start to bleed
trading blame like—you! you! you!
and what about me?

[verse two]

she is taurus
stubborn and grounded like a tree in the forest
rooted in pride, she shut me out, i get my hand stuck in the door hinge

humans are self absorbed and walking contradictions
swimming in quicksand using their toes to make decisions

listen
she say, “some days i’m afraid i’m just a muse, just a part of your myth
i see you less and less the more famous you get

i fear one day you’ll return from one of your trips
and you’re someone else and i’m different and that will be it

write me a love song, a love song, that’s fine by me
i love your love songs, your love songs, they remind me
that you love me and you want the world to see
but sometimes i feel like talk is cheap

i hate your love songs, your love songs, for shackling me
i hate your love songs your love songs that are all about me
i hate your love songs, your love songs, they won’t let me breath
i love you but hate to watch you leave

[bridge]

he be runnin’ a runnin’ a numbin’ a numbin’ ah whoa whoa whoa
she be runnin’ a numbin’ a numbin’ a numbin’ ah whoa whoa whoa
he be runnin’ a runnin’ a numbin’ a numbin’ ah whoa whoa whoa

[chorus]

i know we got these problems
i know i want to solve em’
i know we must grow old
but i want our love to blossom

one argument turns into everything
old wounds open and we start to bleed
trading blame like—you! you! you!
and what about me?
