I Think About You by Garrett Johnson Lyrics
[Intro]
Hey C it's me
[Verse 1]
That sliver of light gleaming through the dark abyss of the cave
That bouquet of flowers resting on top of the grave
That rush of energy when you feel you almost decay
That voice during distraught assuring it'll all be okay
That feeling of anxiety and not knowing what to say
Because they're too damn gorgeous and you don't want to scare them away
So you sit in silence and just stare day after day
Computing scenarios in your mind from times of activity to when you lay
They are the only spec of color in a world of grey
But you can't find the guts, will, or courage to tell them face to face
Trying to approach them but you're stuck marching in place
Wishing you could just say your feelings and vanish leaving no trace
How are you supposed to approach the perfect goddess in all of space
Introducing yourself is like acetone and fire trynna' relate
It's bound to either explode or catch on, it's a gamble of fate
The only way to really figure out is to commit and not hesitate
[Chorus]
I've been thinking about you
From when the sky's black to blue
We may be broken fragments, but together we bond like glue
I always feel shitty when I say something rude
Whenever we speak I end up emotionally nude
What's a love sick puppy to do, but pursue
The only person always there to help him through
Any situation no matter how gigantic or minute
[Verse 2]
She's the only glowing ember in a world of ash
She's the only pillow in a crevasse filled with shards of glass
She's the wind that's filling my mast
The only force that's pushing me past
To me she'll always be the opposite of last
The pressure holding me together, like a bone in a cast
To me her absence would be an unbearable fast
I always think about her and it must be daft
I'm still just a baby, I'm just a draft
In the future I'll probably look back and laugh
But right now I could easily chart a graph
Plotting the points in fields she exceeds the best
She's the only original entity left
One of the primary inspirations for me starting this craft
Couldn't ever be replaced even if the charting of endless cash
Without hesitation I'd bestow her my family crest
[Chorus]
I've been thinking about you
From when the sky's black to blue
We may be broken fragments, but together we bond like glue
I always feel shitty when I say something rude
Whenever we speak I end up emotionally nude
What's a love sick puppy to do, but pursue
The only person always there to help him through
Any situation no matter how gigantic or minute
[Verse 3]
Studies show the human brain has about 48 thoughts a minute
That's .8 per second or 70,000 each time the earth's spinning
And you're on my mind constantly so estimating
36 a minute and another 1 for actions related to sinning
That's 53,280 thoughts per rotation
That's 3 fourths of my day about you dedicated
And I wouldn't change a thing, I find you endlessly fascinating
Those eleven other thoughts are purely frustration
While I wait for another of you to arrive at the station
Some people get by anticipating a vacation
But I get by waiting for our next communication
In a utopia writing about you wouldn't just be a vocation
But for now it is, even in the freest of nations
If I lived 200 years prior my neurons would be indentured servants in your plantation
Not slaves because they would've taken the job for satisfaction
And they'd work until they died of sleep deprivation
[Chorus]
I've been thinking about you
From when the sky's black to blue
We may be broken fragments, but together we bond like glue
I always feel shitty when I say something rude
Whenever we speak I end up emotionally nude
What's a love sick puppy to do, but pursue
The only person always there to help him through
Any situation no matter how gigantic or minute
[Verse 4]
Pages in my journal filled about you
Verses the only place to reveal the truth
I can't even muster up the courage to mutter how I feel blue
Because when you're around anxiety quickly ensues
It's after you I will forever pursue
Since we were children there hasn't been a day you haven't made me swoon
Compared to you I'm a lowly pest, a raccoon
I need to, have to, expose these feelings soon
Your beauty is mind boggling, there's gonna' be a million fuckboys who just want your poon
That thought is nauseating, I just wanna' do the regular commune
Come home sit with you and blast some tunes
If we're feeling real childish, snuggle and watch cartoons
When you get sick wrap you in blankets, and feed you soup out a spoon
Try to be your light in the heavy gloom
Always in my mind you're a smile that looms
Thinking of you endlessly from noon till' noon
[Chorus]
I've been thinking about you
From when the sky's black to blue
We may be broken fragments, but together we bond like glue
I always feel shitty when I say something rude
Whenever we speak I end up emotionally nude
What's a love sick puppy to do, but pursue
The only person always there to help him through
Any situation no matter how gigantic or minute
[Verse 5]
For you my dearest, I'd move planets and stars
No path to hazardous, no trip to far
You're my best friend, dirt poor, or multi-million dollar cars
I'll be with you till' the end, like a fossil in tar
Endure any battle as partners, We'll share the same scars
Until we're branded king and queen like a class in cards
I could repeat your name in ink for a thousand yards
But not even words can express how intensely you I regard
[Outro]
"So why don't you just ask her out?" Alex
"I'm a pansy with bb sized nuts man" Garrett
"Oh... well that sucks" Alex
"Yeah. It does" Garrett
