Lyrics

Is this room getting hotter?
I'm in open whitewater
I don't feel as I should
I'd change it if I could
I dance in windows with my fingers on the frame
I write whatever I want 'cause no one's listening
Been in whitewater rapids, don't know why bad things happen
But turbulent times can cause heat lightning
I think back to a time with a hand around mine
There I stood three foot, nine, catching all of these eyes
Looking up and down me, that is when I noticed
That I'm not what I should be
Is this room getting hotter?
I'm in open whitewater
I don't feel as I should
I'd change it if I could
Am I stuck on repeat?
Snow I hate falls around me
But the thing about me
Is I move on easy
I'm in New Hampshire, driving to the beach
There's a truck in front of me from Tennessee
I can't change the way you think or the way he will perceive
I'm trying my best to not let it get to me
In the hospital room, there I broke down in two
When I realized that you might be taken from me
That is when I noticed everything in this world could be temporary
Is this room getting hotter?
I'm in open whitewater
I don't feel as I should
I'd change it if I could
Am I stuck on repeat?
Snow I hate falls around me
But the thing about me
Is I move on easy
Yeah, I move on easy, I move on as I please
I push it under the rug, it changed my chemistry
Yeah I move on easy, I ignore to please me
Then I project that to whoever comes to me
Is this room getting hotter?
I'm in open whitewater
And this is why I'm avoidant like I breathe
I try to change everything, force myself to love something
That I'll just end up resenting 'cause I can't lie to me
Yeah I move on easy, I move on as I please
I push it under the rug, it changed my chemistry
Is this room getting hotter? (Yeah I move on easy)
I'm in open whitewater (I move on to please me)
I don't feel as I should (Then I project that to)
I'd change it if I could (Whoever comes to me)
Am I stuck on repeat? (In the hospital room, there I broke down in two)
Snow I hate falls around me (When I realized that you might be taken from me)
But the thing about me (That is when I noticed everything in this world)
Is I move on easy (Could be temporary)
