    Lyrics:
    I really hope that you find happiness
    And that book you write’s magnificent
    And I won’t help but stare at every word
    It would burn holes in many mattresses
    After I place it down
    Read in full
    That lovely little book
    Titled “I Told You So”
    Yeah, you’re Thoreau-ly mad at the world
    And yeah it sucks, but this place will never change
    I think it will probably get way worse
    At best stay the same so
    You’ll be fucking world renown
    While I’m getting drunk at my house
    Thinking about the dumb words I said
    When I was a bit too high
    Those two pills I took felt very nice
    But made me break your lovely little heart
    And I said, “Ashley, that’s so fucking dumb
    To think that life just hands you some
    Book that you barely have to write.
    It’s gonna take like fuckin’ four or five
    Bad books nobody would ever like
    For you to live that wonderful life.”
    And she stopped and she cried
    That night, but she’s right
    She’s going to write that book
    That’s gonna make
    Me look like a fuckin’ fool
    And I know that she’ll find happiness
    And her book will be magnificent
    And I won’t help but stare at every word
    It would burn holes in all these mattresses
    After I place it down, read in full
    That lovely little book titled “I Told You So”
    Yea, you’re Thoreau-ly mad at me
    But so what, I’m never gonna change
    I’ll probably get way worse, at best, stay the same
    So I will sit and I will drink myself
    To either sleep or untimely death
    Either way, I hope that you don’t cry, ya know
    That’s just a part of life
    Derek’s father and my father know
    Cirrhosis is a tough way to go
    So when we drink a lot after our show
    Pretending that we’re not even scared at all
    Genetics are what make me go to bed
    Because there’s something that’s inside my head
    That will click and make me drink until I’m dead
    And Derek’s dad and my dad are done
    So I will sit and I'll think
    About this life
    And If I even like it
    But I know
    That I’m
    I’m gonna find
    A little bit of happiness
    It’s either in my house or somewhere else
    But I am turning over every stone
    And I will search the fuckin’ depths of this
    Stupid place, my kids will have to live
    In order just to smile a little bit
    But you know, I’m Thoreau-ly in love with you
    And ya I’m really scared that I may never change
    But I’m so fucking done being so afraid
    I really hope that you find happiness

      Haha. Damn it really re-creates that feeling of sitting in your room thinking over the shit you fucking said and shouldn't have and the slow descent into that like all consuming feeling where you end up feeling like you have a bowling ball in your throat and tears in your eyes, but also that determination of wanting to be better, but knowing you're a fucking idiot

    Honestly can’t compare this guy with any artist. The way he doesn’t rhyme stuff on purpose, is often off-beat in the best possible way and can bring across a message with so much feeling. This is so far from the music I like to listen, but still this shit hits me and I think it’s beautiful. Thank you.
