Happy For You
03:07

I could tell you how I’d like to be wasted
Blowing up your phone though you aren’t answering
I would ask if I could stomach it
If its good, then I’m good and I’m happy for you
I’ve waited so long to be be happy for you
Thinking up an end for every conversation
I want to have but haven’t yet, so I’m still waiting
I would ask if I could stomach it
If its good, then I’m good and I’m happy for you
I’ve waited so long to be be happy for you
And I would ask if I could stomach it
If you’re good, then I’m good and I’m happy for you
I’ve waited so long to be be happy for you
Happy for you
I could tell you how I’d like to
I could tell you how I’d like to
I could tell you how I’d like to
I could tell you how I’d like to

Sleep It Off
03:11
|

Meaningless well I mean no offense
You know I forget you know I’m sweating it
Got the sense of the boot on your neck
You know how I get, its insignificant
It’s been days
Carry me back, tell me where I’m at
Let me lay down let me sleep it off
Not so tough never thought I was
Don’t you take off before I wake up
Something’s wrong why are all the lights on?
Try to be calm but everyone’s gone
Feel it slip through the cracks of your lips
Like lines in a song or lines in your palm
It’s been days
Carry me back, tell me where I’m at
Let me lay down let me sleep it off
Not so tough never thought I was
Don’t you take off before I wake up
Carry me back, tell me where I’m at
Let me lay down let me sleep it off
Not so tough never thought I was
Don’t you take off before I wake up
Carry me back, tell me where I’m at
Let me lay down let me sleep it off
Not so tough never thought I was
Don’t you take off before I wake up

Must Mean Something
04:08
|

I can miss anything even if it’s in front of me
I’m outta my mind, I’m losing sleep
Hot blooded and arrogant, hail popping luminescence
Again again I’m born again
Reading through the window not saying anything
Scrolling bits of notes that aren’t saying anything
It must mean something
Must mean something
It must mean something
Must mean something
To me
(To me)
She moves in a certain way, turns certain and silently
Biding her time, she’ll make you stay
Watching her shadow play, morning coffee and diner raids
I don’t mind I’m born again
Reading through the window not saying anything
Scrolling bits of notes that aren’t saying anything
It must mean something
Must mean something
(Isn’t this what you’re waiting for?)
It must mean something
Must mean something
(Isn’t this what you’re waiting for?)
It must mean something
Must mean something
(Isn’t this what you’re waiting for?)
It must mean something
Must mean something
(Isn’t this what you’re waiting for?)
Reading through the window not saying anything
Scrolling bits of notes that aren’t saying anything
Reading through the window not saying anything
Scrolling bits of notes that aren’t saying anything

High School
03:03
|

Take your time I don’t mind
If you take it slow, is it possible?
You see it from the other side, or
The corner of your eye?
Trace a line in your skin
while its setting in, you can cover it
The itching is a splitting of time
Don’t it feel nice?
Oh oh, you’re back in high school
Oh oh, you’re back in high school
Take the night to yourself
Do it for your health, if you need the help
I’ll stay til its done and i wont tell anyone
Send a sign, any time,
Are you picking sides? Are you satisfied?
I’m like a beating heart
If you start me up
Oh oh you’re back in high school
Oh oh, you’re back in high school
Oh oh, you’re back in high school

Battle Pose
03:48
|

I swear to god I’ll let you down
so I won’t say anything at all
but I, I’m not built for that
its fine if you make it last
I swear to god that I’m no good
I’m self absorbed and self assured
So why, is your aching heart
Aligned so we beat apart
But I’ve been thinking about you constantly
Off guard and mouthing words to me
Leave me if you’re leaving
I want the reason, Want to get even
I’ve got this thing about control
Falling through cracks from a tighter hold
So size up your battle pose
Polite with a bloody nose
But I’ve been thinking about you constantly
Off guard and mouthing words to me
Leave me if you’re leaving
I want the reason, Want to get even

Figure It Out
03:21
|
|||
Out with your friends I was in too deep
I guess it depends what you really mean
Say what you want, I’m a little drunk
A slip of the lip, and a slip of the tongue
Tell me that I’m getting better,
I don’t wanna live forever
I don’t wanna leave but I don’t think I’m making it out
Tell me what you’re thinking, honey
Tell me is it worth the money?
Tell me what everything, cause I don’t think I’ll figure it out
Long in the tooth, guess I’m into you
Pretend that you care like I want you to
The farthest from fair, did you think I knew?
Tell me the truth, am I a fucking fool?
Tell me that I’m getting better,
I don’t wanna live forever
I don’t wanna leave but I don’t think I’m making it out
Tell me what you’re thinking, honey
Tell me is it worth the money?
Tell me what everything, cause I don’t think I’ll figure it out
I’ll close my eyes if you let me stay
Say something nice, say it anyway
Tell me that I’m getting better,
I don’t wanna live forever
I don’t wanna leave but I don’t think I’m making it out
Tell me what you’re thinking, honey
Tell me is it worth the money?
Tell me what everything, cause I don’t think I’ll figure it out

Make Me Move
02:42
|
|||
And I, I’m taut like human instinct
As American as cheating
That’s right, like college exhibition
All gut and no precision
So if your bored, then check your phone and hair
And if you want to meet me, I’ll be there
Are you gonna make me move?
Are you gonna make me move?
I’m back, like a tinsel prima donna
All wrapped in do ya wanna?
So so so so its like that, taking vitamins with vodka
While she’s talking to her momma
So color me like Magdalene, be fair
And if you want to tease me I’m not scared
Are you gonna make me move?
Are you gonna make me move?
Are you gonna make me move?
Are you gonna make me move?

Side of the Shoulder
03:04
|
|||
Wanted nothing but to hear it sing so I
Turned the dial til our bodies were ringing
Now I’m sitting on the side of the shoulder
Thinking if she’s thinking of me
Face down on the kitchen floor spent a
Year drunk as the day I was born
I wanna burn it down and start over
It comes easier now that I’m older
Maybe we let it get too far gone
Gave too much, resisted too long
Sleeping it off, maybe thats enough
Wanted nothing and nothings free, I think
You and I got the same disease
You were sitting at the top of the stairwell
I was fumbling around for my keys
Funny how it only lasts for a minute, but it
matters more than all that other shit
I will meet you somewhere after its over
It comes easier now that I’m older
Maybe we let it get too far gone
Gave too much, resisted too long
Sleeping it off, maybe thats enough
Maybe its different, Maybe thats good
Took too much, maybe I’m hooked
Taking it off, maybe I misunderstood
Maybe it’s different
Maybe that’s good
Or maybe not

Hard Enough
02:57
|

Well shit, it tastes like cotton candy
The dissonance is amazing
I think its nicotine i’m craving
Its funny, isn’t it? I guess i do it to myself
Catch me drinking too your health
Till I feel like someone else
As if it wasn’t hard enough
I’ll take it out on you, my love
There’s only so much to lose
As if it wasn’t hard enough
I’ll burn enough for both us
And I’m not ready to let you
I, I’m really feeling it tonight
I guess its just a state of mind
I’m not well but give me time
Its funny isn’t it? Well if everything’s an act
Tell me, where’s the fun in that?
Tell me, why’s it go so fast?
As if it wasn’t hard enough
I’ll take it out on you, my love
There’s only so much to lose
As if it wasn’t hard enough
I’ll burn enough for both us
And I’m not ready to let you
As if it wasn’t hard enough
I’ll take it out on you, my love
There’s only so much to lose
As if it wasn’t hard enough
I’ll burn enough for both us
And I’m not ready to let you

Try Me
04:13
|

The importance of being important
Ain't it such a trip? And a little bit obvious
It takes all that you've got to wake up
A slow and steady drip, the twitching of your lips
Every day, it gets harder
Like colors, mixed with all the others
You tried to make it right, but you tried to hard tonight
You’re patient, kicking at the pavement
Feeling calcified, with thoughts of qualified
Every day, we get farther
Baby why you trying to change me?
We want the same things, I wont let it go
Right, do you really wanna try me?
Try and stop me, you got me by the throat
One thing leads into the next thing
Ain’t it such a shame, you’re waiting on a change
Well if you explain it, I might understand shit
Its basically the same, and I’m basically to blame
Every day, we get farther
Baby why you trying to change me?
We want the same things, I wont let it go
Right, do you really wanna try me?
Try and stop me, you got me by the throat
Baby why you trying to change me?
We want the same things, I wont let it go
Right, do you really wanna try me?
Try and stop me, you got me by the throat
