I Can't Think About It Now

I Can't Think About It Now - Dawes

If you're just asking for a reason

Reasons are everywhere you look

The only difference between them

Are which you gave and which you took

Every smile with some dark anticipation

And dreams of back before it settled in their brows

I don't remember when you first began to notice

But I can't think about it now

I can't think about it now

The latest singers latest singles got me listening

For the pact between the writer and the star

This is how mythology is written

This is where the lawless jungles are

She's just a singer living mostly after midnight

Pumping blood and money back into a town

And it all eventually betrays her

But I can't think about it now

I can't think about it now

So I guess it makes me wonder what I'm chasing

Like a dancer when she's breaking in her shoes

Like sending men up to the moon just for the landing

Displaying power we don't know how else to use

Sometimes it's more than I can handle

Sometimes it's all the joy I've found

A lot end up on one side or the other

But I can't think about it now

The decades that are hidden in the side walks

The narrative that naturally occurs

The everlasting wisdom of a sports bar

The poison that's mistaken for a cure

All these backward glances putting me in danger

Of forgetting how to turn myself around

Its just that time keeps on slipping through my fingers

But I can't think about it now oh

I can't think about it now

I can't think about it now

I can't think about it now
