roller coaster Lyrics

I want to be romantic but we'll see when I get older

Hearts are cold as Minnesota and as deadly as a plague

But it is not the perfect metaphor

Cause plagues can't make you feel this type of way

I think I get lost in the moment

I think that I lose my cool

And at least I know I'm devoted

But I'm getting called the fool

At least a thousand times

And that's a thousand times too many

When I'm alone it's quite dangerous

Cause I overthink like a man who has nothing to do except think in a room

And speak up whenever he can

But it's become a pattern now

I should've read the signs

My feelings change like the tides

Through the ups and the downs

A roller coaster ride

Will it be different this time?

I want to be romantic but we'll see when I get older

We're like North and South Dakota and I don't want you to leave

But it is not the perfect metaphor

Cause you don't feel the same way about me

I wish that this didn't surprise me

But I know that look in your eyes

You have a familiar posture

I've seen it dozens of times

I know you're thinking now

How to say goodbye?

I guess that we can't be together

But somehow I thought that we would

I'm guessing there's somebody out there

Who's feeling as misunderstood

And guesses turn to knowledge

Within time

My feelings change like the tides

Through the ups and the downs

A roller coaster ride

Will it be different this time?
