lyrics

Took a photo of my father in the kitchen,
while he's getting bad news
he's silhouetted by the light from the window,
as he turns away for a minute
my father lost of a lot of weight but I'll still never fit in his shoes
he tends to a garden
I tend to my Instagram

I want to be more than myself
these days I'm a bore to myself
I want to be the good guy, good guy
help me be the good guy, good guy
I want more from a song
than a bass heavy sing-a-long
I pretend to be the good guy, good guy
help me be the good guy, good guy

He's a good guy, what good guy,
he's the real deal, what a good guy

There's a moment when I'm falling asleep where
I don't know who I am
take a photo of myself to remind me
but I wish it'd last for a minute
can't scroll to the bottom of my heartache
gotta get me out of my hand
just give me a garden
I'm trying to give a damn

He's a good guy, what a good guy,
he's the real deal, what a good guy
good guy knows when he falls in love
good guy, he can't mess it up,
good guy, always does enough
he's a good guy

I want to be more than myself
these days I'm a bore to myself
I want to be the good guy, good guy
help me be the good guy, good guy
I want more from a song
than a bass heavy sing-a-long
I pretend to be the good guy, good guy
help me be the good guy, good guy
