lyrics

I step into the scene, that's when it begins
they hype me up, they say, "look, it's him"
it may not seem like something I need
but it makes me feel a little bit more like me

Just do your best to understand
that I won't be your perfect man
and I'll do my best with what I've been dealt
Just live everyday trying to love myself

All of my favorite people, all of my favorite folks gave me
Their old keepsakes that seldom steer me wrong, all my favorite
faces and places I've saved some amazement
you gave me, I share all of it where I go with
All of my favorite people, and my favorite folks

First she gives me a look, that's when it begins
I take her to the door, she says, "Thanks again"
I don't wanna end up just another friend
I hope she lets me in. Please won't you let me in

Just do your best to understand
that I won't be your perfect man
and I'll do my best with what I've been dealt
Your love teaches me how to love myself

All of my favorite people, all of my favorite folks gave me
Their old keepsakes that seldom steer me wrong, all my favorite
faces and places I've saved some amazement
you gave me, I share all of it where I go with
All of my favorite people, and my favorite folks

pt. II
by darn it.

Respectable alt rock tracks. Some dulcet and sweet, some heavy and complex. Ending with a vocal arrangement, Ryley Crowe introduces more of his producing prowess in his second installment of darn it. Cousin Arthur
