i don't want it, i don't need it, baby
don't let it happen again
i'm done reading into your bullshit, baby
i'm a better man (x2)
and when we're walking down the street
you say that you want it
and you will give it all to me
you say it, you spray it
i don't want it, i don't need it, baby
don't let it happen again
i'm done reading into your bullshit, baby
i'm a better man
I see them walking, talking in circles, baby
spewing news again
no offense but I could care less about it
I'll be the better man
and when you're lying next to me
you say that you need it
but you are lying through your teeth
you say it, but that's bullshit
i don't want it, i don't need it, baby
don't let it happen again
i'm done reading into your bullshit, baby
i'm a better man
i don't want it, i don't need it, but I'm letting it happen again...

ennui
04:58

I’ll go where you wanna go just call me, call me and I’ll take you there
You always say you don’t need me, you seem to think I don’t care
But I’ll go where you wanna go just call me baby call me and I’ll take you there
I imagine your eyes before me, a symptom of my ennui
But people they start to get freaky when they’re confronted with me

ghost
03:51

I am the ghost in your house
Ur the voice showing me out
Politely leave
I am the dirt in your floor
Clear out the cracks but there's more
Energy release
I hear the ghost moving around
Haunting you until you breakdown
Empty hollow out of control
I am the ghost in your house
Haunting you until you break down
Empty hollow out of control

isn't that what you wanted?
isn't that why you came?
isn't that what you wanted, a claim to the fame?
isn't that what you wanted?
isn't that why you came?
isn't that what you wanted?
(isn't that what you wanted?)

lemon love
02:45

Forget the stupid nasty songs
i’ll sing them when we get along
just Find someone to love that you grew up with
It’s nothing physical I miss
But when you lose her in your kiss
You’re bending over backwards just to kill it
All the ways you said you bled
I’ll speak to you when I am dead
You’re not the girl i knew and fell in love with
the taste of lemon in your mouth
It’s Nasty sharp it’s sweet and sour
It’s bitter but it’s what you fell in love with
I would do it all again
Look at my vomit in the pan
Uneasy but the pain releases with it with it
Forget considerate today
I Need you as you walk away
I’m not the girl you knew and fell in love with love with

stay until it hurts
02:24
|

|
i used to walk along
these narrow streets of cobblestone
in the rain
till you ran out my life and made a fool of me,
but you stay, stay until it hurts
i used to run away
from anything that caused me pain
now i wait
for the light of my love to linger in your eyes
so i’ll stay, stay until it hurts
now that i’m sure you’re right
there’s not a chance in hell tonight
for embrace
if you close your eyes you’ll never have to see me again
but please stay, stay until it hurts
stay until it hurts
stay until it hurts

midnight air

in my dreams
you were there
putting braids
in my hair
i keep looking for the answers,
i swear in my heart i know there's something there
in my arms
you weren't there
on the phone
you were scared
i didn't mean to bring you down love
i swear it's a dream in salty midnight air

rainy day song
02:57
|

|
It was a rainy day
But when I thought of you
Looked up at the sky
It was blue
We could stand in line
Help fill a crowded room
Or we could stay inside
Make some food
Pour you some coffee
Yes, I'll hold the cream
i’ll do anything that
you ask of me
I don't wanna go out tonight
I don't wanna stay inside
walking home from class
hope to find you there
watch you play the drums
In your underwear
Pour you some coffee
Yes, I'll hold the cream
i’ll do anything that
you ask of me
I don't wanna go out tonight
I don't wanna stay inside

finally alone
02:53
|
|||
|
i am alone for the very first time in seven years
how can you live without the ones you hold so dear
i hear your voice like a megaphone ringing in my ear
it's like a sound i've heard before, just harsh enough
just a little nothing to get me through the something
it's real, it's real
i'm old enough to be alone in the ugly places
why do i feel just like a child in the open spaces
remember the time you spent away from the others
it's real, it's real

beach house 2
05:38

A quiet night
Alone in my bedroom
A ceiling of stars
That glow in the dark
I'm ok
To do what I have to
Fade into the light
And come out at night
I feel like I’m screaming and calling your name
But you stare silent
come to the salt water come watch the rain
forming circles
i can feel all of me slipping away
beneath the surface
but i know that one day we’ll all be ok
and live in a beach house
A quiet drive
Alone in the mountains
The gold fireflies and stars they are mine
Gravity
Depression cherry
A hole that looks blue
And a knob that is red from a heart-shaped bruise
Tonight I'll sit
And watch conversation
Phone in my hand
I'll Smoke second hand

doing you wrong
03:57
|
|||
|
i only cried a little
when i left home the first time
and looking in the mirror
i thought that time was a straight line
i didn't mean to hurt you
but i should have talked it out and done right
and looking in the mirror
i tell myself that it's alright
well i don't wanna talk about it
till i know what's going on
i don't wanna hear about it
how i'm doing you wrong
you think i don't know that i'm doing you wrong?
it makes for easy listening
when you're wide awake in the night
you call me up past midnight
we still make up after the fight
well i don't wanna talk about it
till i know what's going on
i don't wanna hear about it
how i'm doing you wrong
you think i don't know that i'm doing you wrong?
and i will think of you in the morning
that's when the loneliness starts dawning
you were someone i thought i could spend my life with
but we still fuck around regardless
it happens every time
it happens every time
it happens every fucking time
it happens every time
it happens every time
it happens every gd time

do you like this band i ask you
floating down the avenue
to find a place to sit in silence
gaze up at the stars for once
you were waiting you were watching
you were so damn condescending
you approached me shaking, crying
altogether terrifying me
i was wrong about you
i was wrong
i was wrong

haircut
04:29
|

|
I don't want this to be over
I can't lose this when I'm older
I cut my hair but I still feel the same
I can't tell them they don't deserve the pain
I can't help it I'm just a piece of shit
I can't tell u how much I'm over it
I can't miss him cuz it won't be the same
I can't hold you but you drive me insane
Why do I hate myself
My thoughts are humbling
The only thing I want
Is to mean something
it’s something in my head
It's more than I can take
How is it 4am
How am I still awake
just like the tiny splinter
that’s now a part of me
the only thing i want
is to mean something
so i lie on the floor
imagine bleeding out
and my insides soak into
this 100 year old house

27 blend

my warmth falls
heavy on
his body
wraps around him like a blanket
his firm
calloused fingers
Follow paths
written deep in my expression
i know his
brown eyes so
close now they’re
stacked like a Picasso painting
forty-eight
hours since
i left you,
eyes glued firmly to the ceiling
(chorus)
you look in
the mirror
blue hair dye
wraps around your feet like seaweed
warm skin from
hot shower
cold black hair
wraps around his face like feathers
his words hang
in the air
smoke exhaled
wraps around the awkward silence
i watch your
silent math
your memories
wrap around the edge of knowing
Broke down in the basement
i wonder how your day went
Your pack of 27s
All torn up on the pavement
Dumbstruck bent and broken
Pretending u don’t know him
I’m fire on your lips
from a broken cigarette

rio vista
04:31
|

|
stoned and driving home
i still see the glow
dancing on the river underneath
suddenly i froze
standing there i know
i have all the emptiness you need
sailing, down rio vista
under the notion that redefines me
it’s so bad, the way you move slowly
and kiss me so softly down rio vista lane
so take me by the hand
let me be your man
i have all the emptiness you need
rosy cheeks and wine
head up in the sky
you know how to keep me at your feet
sailing, down rio vista
across the ocean, and into the sea (under the notion that redefines me)
and somehow we’ll keep it together
though waves still roll through me and sweep me off my feet
you always get what you want

i am tired
04:03
|
|||
|
wait around the house tonight, i wait around and make you cry
i can’t be myself tonight i need you here right by my side
eat a snack and make it work, i go to work i go to work
even in my deepest sleep i cannot rest i cannot dream
( i am tired, i am tired)
think about you everyday i’m wasting the whole world away
i can still be 22 if i am not a part of you
from my body trees will grow return again until they don’t
so (still?) i watch your curvature against a piece of furniture
(i am tired, i am tired)
you’ll never get it
