Connecticut Steps

[Verse 1]

On a morning in Baton Rouge

I change position to some heartbreaking news

I remember the sobs in the call about you

And I'm detuned

To what rests on Connecticut steps

Total shock in an assortment of friends

In thoughts to go along with the rest in my head

It's what this meant

It's what you meant

To everyone you met

[Chorus]

Today I'm so unbelievably helpless

Against the pit in my stomach I couldn't begin to shake off

So in the back of my mind, my brain has rendered me silent

Which not a soul around me could understand

[Verse 2]

I slept in the sun all the way to Jackson

You'd agree, this is the worst goddamn place on Earth

Resolve to calm and conceal reactions

That I'm so hurt

That we're so hurt

It's a clever disguise I've made so sure

[Chorus]

Tonight I'm so unbelievably helpless

Against the pit in my stomach I couldn't begin to shake off

So in the back of my mind, by brain has rendered me silent

Which not a soul around me could ever understand

[Outro]

Not a soul around me could ever understand
