coffee tables - su ha bu wa lyrics

[verse 1]
my mind’s been buzzing like a bumblebee
the thoughts that i’ve been having recently
have really humbled me
now, this coffee ain’t really my cup of tea
but man… i could really use your company
see? the devil’s sitting on my shoulder like a parrot
i’m 60 years old and d-mn, i miss my parents
when i was 8, i was scolded and embarr-ssed
at 13 i was carefree, at 30 i was careless
looking up at the big screen, at big things
got the whole world ahead of me, i’m only 16
i’m almost 6-feet, in the streets and i’m amped
sitting on the beach with my feet in the sand
simpler times, feeling like i know exactly who i am
then i lost it. 22 and i’m lit as a lamp
a send off – like i’m l!cking a stamp
and if you lifted my lid you would see i live in the past
a little kid with a b-tterfly effect in my stomach
which is grumbling from the fact that we stick to a budget
at 17 i’m like f-ck it, 18 i can’t function
19 was the funnest, 21 i’m on that fungus
and it’s crazy, four dimensions of thought
looking up at the canopy and feeling closer to god
an alter boy at m-ss, staring off at the clock
i was swallowed by the earth, i remain in a box
when i was 43, my first wife left me
she said she wished it was the way it was when we were twenty
to give and take, but i couldn’t reciprocate
the wound that she left cut me deep like a machete
a self fulfilling prophecy – it happened in the summer
i know because i wrote it in a song when i was younger
spent my life feeling like a shadow in the shade
if i got a second chance i’d prolly make the same mistakes

[bridge]
you know
in looking back on my life
i’ve realized that i’ve held onto a great deal of pain
and that i haven’t been truthful enough with myself to see it for what it is
more importantly
i’ve realized that i just need to learn to forgive myself
and learn to let go
honestly, visiting today wasn’t easy for me
and just so you know…

[verse 2]
brother, i want to thank you for being here for me
i’m sorry for speaking so incoherently
it was a burden so heavy i couldn’t bear it
i’m embarr-ssed, but i feel like i needed to share it
you know? it’s like, we just need to be open
grown men drown in the tears they hold in
how can we heal others if we smother our own?
stone cold, but this stone is crushing my soul
and so, i’m supposed to be a pillar of strength
for others but i can’t because i’m filled with this pain
it has taken its toll. i have nowhere to go
and if you felt the same as me, would you please let it show?
do you remember when we sat up on the rooftop
september night and high enough to see the boondocks?
all the conversations that populated our youth
well we’ve climbed ever since, and this is the view…
