Alphabet

Late at night

Cloudy white

Will creep

Over my old house

And the chair

Where i once sat

Someone new is there

And he'll stare

At the wall

And we're all parts

Of an alphabet

We spell new words

At new spots we're at

And the big, round

Blue boat drifts

Around in the dark

When you feel like a jerk

Does it make you confused

Like how

You could you become

As awesome as you are

And still feel like a loser

When you feel ugly and petty

Awkward and unsteady

Please try not to forget

There's so many people

That liked you

And i hope

That the art school

Enjoys your big

Drawing of ruin

We've all got

Good things to do

And it's good

When we do them

From austin to brooklyn

They're all smart

And good-lookin'

They're all parts

Of an alphabet

Spell new words

With new folks we met

And the big, round

Blue boat drifts

Around in the dark

And the big, round

Blue boat drifts

Around in the dark

And they say

That we'll drift

For awhile 'til we die

And the sun hits a spiral

It's a combination lock

And i'm just hopin'

That i'll get it open

And these joys

And frustrations

Are just turns

In the combination
