I'm a people pleaser
But I'd rather spend my time alone
I don't want you to feel unimportant
We should go for coffee when I get home
Starbucks is pricy
Anita's is closed
Does Blackwater even exist?
And I can only spread myself so thin
I'm a bucket without a bottom
What goes in always falls right back through
There's few things that fill me
And don't slowly kill me to do
Like my time at the water
A dead oak for a couch
As the seagulls sing nautical hymns
And I can only spread myself so thin
Monday's a visit
Tuesday's a show
Wednesday's a party but I don't want to go
I can't win
And I can only spread myself so thin
Thursday's a diner
Friday's booked through
I forget about my weekend
But it probably is too
Please forgive
Cause I can only spread myself so thin
