What I Mean

from Be Well! by Gabriel Coleman

/

lyrics

i keep saying goodbye when i mean to say hello
i keep moving faster when i mean to take it slow
and i keep saying all the wrong words to you
but you know what i mean

i killed all my houseplants when i wanted them to grow
and i won't pretend that i never reap when i should sow
but i don't have to try so hard with you
because you know what i mean

but all the things that words don't say
the empty fullness of the day
and all that fills the silence when you go you go you go

all that these songs can't portray
the obstacles along the way
i go quiet and you say i know i know i know

i know i should stay here though i feel i need to go
and there are things i'm thinking that i should let you know
but i'll just think it through even though you
already know what i mean
