I'll Settle Down and Be Honest
This may not go the way you want it to
I'll settle down and be honest with you
my songs are my safe haven
so I wrote this one
to say this
you treated me the way I needed you to be
proved to me consistency is not a thief
and commitment can't be broken easily
you're gonna go away, several states
and I'm in no place to stick to that pace
the university, work and my degree
they're filling up my plate and
I'll be drowning
and I can't do one more thing
and I can't hurt your feelings
but this may not go the way you want it to,
I'll settle down and be honest with you
and I'll be making music
my whole life
and I pray to God
you'll always fly
and maybe someday
I will have seen some sign
and you'll have stopped trying
