lyrics

[Talls]

God damn, you know how to make a man
Feel like a motherfucking man
Even though I've never fired a gun
Let alone even held one in the palm of my hand
Here I stand, on the edge of the Grand Canyon
Ready to jump, with two packs attached to my back
Pull that parachute latch and float up
Then cut the strap of the bag that's closed shut
And filled to the max with my past
And watch it crash below
The old me know is just a cloud of smoke
Who really knows where this might go
But it would be that cosmic joke
If we both just dipped our big toes in the ocean
Cause it's way to cold to go and jump in
Together we could swim good, swim good, swim good
I'm hoping this can of Sculpin
Will help me open up enough
To let you know where I'm at and where I plan on going
Our overhead compartments have been stashed with
Nothing but baggage
And all my friends think that I think too much but
The last thing I want is to give out my time
Get too invested then damaged
Never stray from myself to get closer to someone else

[Chorus]

It's that feel good moment (Sunshine)
It feels good don't it (All right)
I just want to take it and own it, then clone it
And save it for a rainy day (Hey)

It's that feel good moment (Ok)
It feels good don't it (Today)

[Talls]

You know the type right
The one who trips over their own luggage so often
They're always in the middle of some kind of problem (problem)
Drama always haunts em'
Beautiful as a blossom in autumn
As much as you relay that they're awesome
The same constant to play possum
But that energy kept attracting these new boys
Who seem to enjoy, saving her from those old boys
But oh boy, these dudes got issues too
The pattern ensues cause she believes that
Emotional baggage she carries around
Can't be left behind and you need that
Weighing you down like a salty bag of chips
Or a ton of bricks
Even on a gorgeous summers day
Most men might be chased away
Maybe they're to weak to hold that weight
You've been mistreated
Which distracted you from what you needed
To feel loved and appreciated
But geez for Pete's sake
Let go of those worn handles made of leather
And find someone to unpack it with together

[Chorus]

It's that feel good moment (Sunshine)
It feels good don't it (All right)
I just want to take it and own it, then clone it
And save it for a rainy day (Hey)

It's that feel good moment (Ok)
It feels good don't it (Today)

[Outro]

Sunshine
All right
Rainy day (Hey)
Ok
Today
