Minnow by Tiny Moving Parts Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Darker shades
Never looked so bright
I can’t describe this feeling in my stomach
My eyelids have a solid lock
To see exactly what is going on
Around me, around us
And that’s okay
Problems that I tend to face
What gets me out makes me want to stay
And that’s okay
That's okay

[Chorus]
It’s safe to say
It’s all ironic
(It’s safe to say)
I am building a coffin for a living

[Verse 2]
I know you’ve pushed me to keep my head held high
But it only feels right when I look down, 'cause the clouds confuse me
I want to believe that I’m okay on my two feet
I’ve made mistakes and now I’m making my own bed
[Chorus]
Please let me sleep
It's safe to say
Please let me sleep
It's safe to say
I will feel better in the morning

[Bridge]
(I don’t want to)
(I don’t want to)
I don’t want to let you know that
(I don’t want to)
I tend to slip at moments where
(I don’t want to)
I need a grip and have to focus
(I don’t want to let you know that)
Maybe it’s meant to be

[Verse 3]
I just want to have you
Slow down, slow down
Slow down for me
I just want to have you
Slow down
Listen to the message
I’m trying to tell you that
Maybe everything is meant to be
Maybe everything is meant to be
Volumes must lower since silence is gold
Importance like marrow inside of your bones
Swimming in circles is all that I know
I’m a lost minnow with nowhere to go
[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Maybe everything is meant to be
Maybe everything is meant to be
I’m a lost minnow with nowhere to go
The water, the loneliness is my home
