Corroded Battery

LYRICS
I’m sorry I didn’t have time to read
How you went on and on about my face symmetry
Could you just summarize 
Or put the cliff notes online

This love letter’s kind of long
This love letter’s kind of long
I’d read it but
You’d fall out of love
Before I’m done

I L Y
X O X
But is there any meaning
To this text

I L Y
You’re the best
Thing since 
Sliced bread

But I know how to use a knife
And I doubt you thought twice
Never-ending line
From the tip of your pen
I’m patient, as in I don’t mind
If I never get to read it
You should’ve just gone online
Random word generator’s got better lines
Than the way you're trying to squeeze and fit wrong definitions
Here I’ll give it a try
14 words
You could call it a poem

Pull 
multiply
Vague
Cattle
Sport
Tolerant
Lend
Sex
Fill
Residence
Guess
Demonstrate
Costume
Cope

Now let’s see what you wrote

This love letter’s kind of long
This love letter’s kind of long
I’d read it but
You’d fall out of love
Before I’m done

Where’s the Cliff Notes?
Where’s the after-show?
Where’s the part
Where’s your heart
Paraphrased
In the margins
On my apartment wall
With crayons
Hired preschoolers
Don’t have enough hands
To write all those words
I’m sure their parents
Wouldn’t mind
Them writing how you want your hands
On my body
But instead they’re stuck to pencils
Every writing utensil
Your mind never stops moving
There’s never something you’re not doing
If you’d just take a breath
If you’d just reminisce 
Maybe you could paraphrase
So I'd know what the hell you’re trying to say

This love letter’s kind of long
This love letter’s kind of long
I’d read it but
You’d fall out of love
Before I’m done

This Love Letter's Kind Of Long

LYRICS
Chorus
—----
Don’t overthink
Just come out
The yellow blueprint

We’ll see what it means
After you do it

Don’t overthink
But I think you’re from a blueprint

Think you’re from a
Think you’re from a
Yellow blueprint

Don’t care what you do
Or where you come from

Step out of the moon
If it’s closer than the sun

Both are yellow circles
Spinning round a record player

Step out
Like you’re from the wallpaper

Verse 1
—-----
Yellow and black plaid skirt
The wallpaper saw me first
But you made up the pattern
Repeating through my head
Turns round when you walk in
Paper peeling, caving in
I recognize the structure 
Designed it, there’s no other

Chorus
—----
Don’t overthink
Just come out
The yellow blueprint

We’ll see what it means
After you do it

Don’t overthink
But I think you’re from a blueprint

Think you’re from a
Think you’re from a
Yellow blueprint

Don’t care what you do
Or where you come from

Step out of the moon
If it’s closer than the sun

Both are yellow circles
Spinning round a record player

Step out
Like you’re from the wallpaper

Verse 2
—-----
Yellow and black plaid skirt
The wallpaper goes mad first
But you were in the pattern
Repeated through my head
Turns round when you walk in
Come closer, walls caving in
I recognize the structure
Designed it, who’s your mother 

Bridge
—-----
The wallpaper’s peeling, these feelings don’t like to hide
They ask to see it, behind, but the walls are shy
Etched out plans into the wood
Like questions answered with I would
I would
If I could
But I
Can only look 

Chorus
—----
Don’t overthink
Just come out
The yellow blueprint

We’ll see what it means
After you do it

Don’t overthink
But I think you’re from a blueprint

Think you’re from a
Think you’re from a
Yellow blueprint

Don’t care what you do
Or where you come from

Step out of the moon
If it’s closer than the sun

Both are yellow circles
Spinning round a record player

Step out
Like you’re from the wallpaper

Yellow Blueprint

LYRICS
Hit it, boys

I’ve been watching you all night 
And it’s been quite a horrible sight
Under the lights, you try to blend in
Changing hues like a chameleon

You just like it when the sparks come from my eyes
You just like looking down the barrel of my lips 
Shooting out lies, telling you business
And yes you’re just in it for the fight
Hands tied, tongues tied, the place is clearing 
Hand me your gun in hand, I believe you saved me this dance 

Where are the chorus boys
When I need backup? And then
The dance floor is not the place
But cinderella's shoe kicks ass at 10

Come with me to a crime in progress
Your blood could decorate the dance hall
‘Cause I think the jukebox is going to blow 
If you keep pressing against every girl in this damn place

Just tell me when the crossfire starts
I’ll be dancing till then
The lights shimmer ‘til 12
But Cinderella’s shoe kicks ass at 10
Just tell me when the crossfire starts
I’ll be dancing till then
The lights shimmer ‘til 12
But Cinderella’s shoe kicks ass at 10

Cinderella's Shoe Kicks Ass At 10

LYRICS

Woke up this morning - Sun smashing in my face
Hope’s an awful toy, keeps getting in the way
Things were looking up, but she didn't have to squint
Overcast of her boyfriend, the weather’s coming in

Turn off the radio
Don't want to know if it snows
Don't want to know if he shows
Know when I see his shadow

6 more weeks of winter
6 more weeks ‘til you can kiss her
6 more weeks of listening
To lips you cannot be kissing

6 more weeks of shivers
Not caused by her fingers
6 more weeks of winter
6 more weeks ‘til you can kiss her

She keeps popping up, everywhere I’m about to step
I keep tripping over what others can't see yet
‘Cause I’m tuned to the future
There’s not much you can do, sir
I keep telling myself just gotta wait until the new year

I saw her shadow
Like a meteor cast above
Not listening to the news
World ending when she comes

6 more weeks of winter
6 more weeks 'til you can kiss her
6 more weeks of listening
To lips you cannot be kissing

6 more weeks of shivers
Not caused by her fingers
6 more weeks of winter
6 more weeks ‘til you can kiss her

Struck me down
Right into the ground
Don’t look up
Don’t look down

Turn off the radio
Don't want to know if it snows
Don't want to know if he shows
Know when I see his shadow

6 more weeks of winter
6 more weeks 'til you can kiss her
6 more weeks of listening
To lips you cannot be kissing

6 more weeks of shivers
Not caused by her fingers
6 more weeks of winter
6 more weeks ‘til you can kiss her

6 More Weeks ’Til You Can Kiss Her

LYRICS

TV screen hidden under last year’s clothes
With a black wig beside it in case I decided to crawl in through yours
Leave the wardrobe open, I’ll come in from the back
With the lion and the – wish it was as easy as that

Say you don’t dare peek over that bed, who knows what’s under
I’m one step ahead, I’ve always had my mattress on the floor
Scared of the dark? I think the dark is what’s safe, the issue comes when the moonlight comes in through the window and your silhouette is traced
There’s a slight hint of light
In the memories
And that’s what hurts

TV screen hidden under last year’s clothes
With a black wig beside it in case I decided to crawl in through yours
Leave the wardrobe open, I’ll come in from the back
With the lion and the – wish it was as easy as that

Say you don’t dare peek over that bed, who knows what’s under
I’m one step ahead, I’ve always had my mattress on the ceiling
There’s a slight hint of light
In the memories
And that’s what hurts
Slight hint of light
From the closet door
Don't know what’s worse
Shut or open
Quiet knocking or lock broken

TV screen hidden under last year’s clothes
With a black wig beside it in case I decided to crawl in through yours
Leave the wardrobe open, I’ll come in from the back
With the lion and the – wish it was as easy as that

Say you don’t dare peek over that bed, who knows what’s under
I’m one step ahead, I’ve always had my mattress on the floor
Scared of the dark? I think the dark is what’s safe, the issue comes when the moonlight comes in through the window and your silhouette is traced
There’s a slight hint of light
In the memories
And that’s what hurts
If it was dark I wouldn’t know the words to curse
If I forgot I wouldn’t know the words to curse
If I forgot 
But blurry shapes around my bed
Is it you or the boogeyman?
Wouldn’t mind if you crawled right in
Wouldn’t mind if you crawled right in
Wouldn’t mind if you crawled right in
Wouldn’t mind if you crawled right in

Stop Sneaking Up Behind Me

LYRICS

SoOoOoOo you think that
You can rip my heart out
Then ask for it on a tray
For the pink holiday?

See how unrequited tastes
Passion fruit in a microwave
Heated palms, so soft
Last thing I felt before she pushed me off

She was asking when we can meet up
But then she begged to bring her boyfriend
Like play pretend
That he’s not watching

Sooooo
Many girls
Sooooo
I should go
Sooooo
Many girls
Sooooo
I should stop waiting on
Sooooo
Many girls
Sooooo
I should've just stayed home
Sooooo
Many girls
Sooooo
Many times to get hurt (oh!)

So many times I’ve read your message
Trying to reply, but nothing sounds great like
Can't he stay home, can’t he just get stuck in traffic
Can’t you come alone, forget that you’ve got attachments

See how unrequited tastes
Passion fruit in a microwave
Heated palms, so soft
Last thing I felt before she pushed me off

Sooooo
Many girls
Sooooo
I should go
Sooooo
Many girls
Sooooo
I should stop waiting on
Sooooo
Many girls
Sooooo
I should've just stayed home
Sooooo
Many girls
Sooooo
Many times to get hurt (oh!)

Tell me when the girls stop coming
Out from every corner, I’m running and running and running 
But round every corner is a dead end
Don't know where they come from, but there’s nowhere this is heading

Tell me when the curfew’s landing
They're out here eating hearts like it’s candy
Tell me when I can open my eyes
I’m out here swinging blind

They're out here eating hearts
Like it's candy 
They’re breaking hearts
Like there's candy in ‘em

Soooooo
You think that we can kiss then tell me
Ohhhhhh
Is it okay if he comes with
Like ohhhhh
I didn't realize he existed
New thing added to my wish list
But there's a long list of girls on his

Sooooo
Many girls
Sooooo
I should go
Sooooo
Many girls
Sooooo
I should stop waiting on
Sooooo
Many girls
Sooooo
I should've just stayed home
Sooooo
Many girls
Sooooo
Many times to get hurt (woah!)

You know I’m a hypocrite
But I don't think that's relevant 
You know I’m a hypocrite
But I don't think that's relevant

Sooo (Many Girls)

LYRICS

Sofie on the sofa's
Got me holding her
Can of coca cola
I tried to sit down

She stopped me with a look
Said I nearly squashed him
I got right back up
I don't know what I’m missing

Maybe I’m seeing things
Maybe I’m not seeing him 
Maybe he’s so lean
My vision’s kinda blurry now

But drink enough from the can
And he'll turn from invisible to kissable
I don't think I drank enough

Sofie on the sofa
With all the imaginary people
Won't let me sit down
So I’m just standing here like a steeple

S-s-sofie on the sofa
Why aren’t you c-c-coming over?
Got me holding pop like it’s a balloon
And it’s over, yeah it’s over

Sofie on the sofa’s
Got me holding her 
Can of coca cola

She stopped me with a look
But I didn't dare
Get back up

Searching through the cushions
For a conversation
She screamed bloody murder
Unless I was mistaken

Found loose change
But that didn't change her mind
She pushed me right through
The cushion’s cracks of light

Sofie on the sofa
With all the imaginary people
Won't let me sit down
So I’m just standing here like a steeple

S-s-sofie on the sofa
Why aren’t you c-c-coming over?
Got me holding pop like it’s a balloon
And it’s over, yeah it’s over

Sofie on the sofa’s
Got me falling through
The cotton, springs and things
Didn't stop until the basement

The people down there didn't ask if I’m okay
But they asked what I was drinking

Sofie on the sofa’s 
Got me holding her
Can of coca cola

Sofie on the sofa’s 
Got me holding her
Can of coca cola

Sofie On The Sofa

LYRICS

Gory, gory
Rushing for me
Red wave crashing in
Like an Edward Gorey Story
Black lines sketching in

I can't find the kill switch
I can't find the kill switch 
I can't find the kill switch
Kill switch

Program running
Countdown coming
Nuclear codes were reset
Old address, first pet she picked
Her maiden name, I forget

Recursion
I’ve got an internal loop of
No purpose
Computing numbers made up 
It’s hurting
No way to turn on the fan
It’s burning
Don’t put a hand to my forehead

Wait, I can't find the kill switch
Wait, I can't find the kill switch 
Wait, I can't find the kill switch
Kill switch

Gory, gory
Genre determine
The way this is going to end
Like an Edward Gorey Story
Need only one line description 

My throat feels cut up
Like it swallowed all the words I thought
My stomach hurts - I know
Aftertaste of aforethought

Wait, I can't find the kill switch
Wait, I can't find the kill switch 
Wait, I can't find the kill switch
Kill switch

What were you gonna do with all this time?
10 9 8 7 6 4 5
What were you gonna do with all this time? 
8 7 6 3 2 1 AHHHHHH

Wait, I can't find the kill switch
Wait, I can't find the kill switch 
Wait, I can't find the kill switch
Kill switch

Kill Switch

LYRICS

Don't know if you're awake or it's all a scheme
To see him looking live, 3D
New scene, catch them setting props in between
No reel, it’s playing live 3D

I keep on waking in the cat’s cradle
Cut the strings, unstable
I’m drifting
I keep on waking in the cat’s cradle
Don't let them cut the cable
I’m dithering

Cat’s claws get me when I sleep
Awake, I don't feel a thing
Rock me in a cradle
Woven, sky must be a blanket
Are you real, think you're shouting
Like the alarm clock that I’m pounding
Are you real, think you're shouting
Like the alarm clock that I’m pounding

I keep on waking in the cat’s cradle
Cut the strings, unstable
I’m drifting
I keep on waking in the cat’s cradle
Don't let them cut the cable
I’m dithering

Never know when I’m awake or sleep
But you are the biggest hint
We get along, we sing a song, you’re leaning in
Now I’m just waiting for that riiinging
You walk away, don't know my name, and I just wait
I better hear that riiinging

I keep on waking in the cat’s cradle
Cut the strings, unstable
I’m drifting
I keep on waking in the cat’s cradle
Don't let them cut the cable
I’m dithering

Don't know if you're awake or it's all a scheme
To see him looking live, 3D
Don't know if you're awake or it's all a scheme
To see him looking live, 3D
Don't know if you're awake or it's all a scheme
To see him looking live, 3D
Don't know if you're awake or it's all a scheme
To see him looking live, 3D

Cat's Cradle

LYRICS

I’m walking through thin halls
But they're cloudy walls
Don't know if I’m in the right lane
But I keep looking over
To the car next to me
That girl looking forward

She never looks over
I never looked up
Sunroof blocked
Think it’s stuck
Pry the roof off 
Didn't need it much 
Never needed it much

You stick to the status
But I’ve got my planning
A court-approved demanding
That you stop right now
Stick to the status
Stop with your hands up
Your arms-length atlas
World standing still for a

High five, didn't know you were holding all of my
Present moments, from all time
Your fingers glowing, fingerprinted right into my life
Like a molded figure, ball of clay
Thrown out the window, for them to play
It’s never hitting the floor now anyway

You stick to the status
But I’ve got my planning
A court-approved demanding
That you stop right now
Stick to the status
Stop with your hands up
Your arms-length atlas
World standing still for a

Just for a moment, if you could stop turning 
Just for a second, I could see, I could learn
If the waves crash from intertia, or is it your wind,
blowing out the cake
Like forest fires to count the age, fireworks, it’s our meteor rage
My fireplace is a speck of light
But can you see me looking up at night
I see stars, but maybe it's just glitter in your hair
Drove to the antarctic, to see your underwear
Are the aliens crashing in just from your nostrils
No kleenex big enough, but you, you’re big enough
You are big enough
I could hold your hand just by standing on the ground
I could jump up and rocket to your mouth for a kiss
Fly through your hair’s moon clips
But I see saturn rings ‘round your finger
Are you engaged to some mister?
Don't drop the marbles in your palm I beg
I’ve got a couple marbles in my room 
I’ll hold them in my hand to feel like you

Arms-Length Atlas

LYRICS 

She doesn't let any lens witness
Detective I swear, something you're missing
Pencils they sketch a monochrome memory
Jailbait Van Gogh’s locked up in history

Your indigo eyes going wild
My mind going wilder, you mindreader
Pretend you don’t see the camera out mine
Pointed at you and your indigo eyes

Lie detector - but you're not true or false
Signing contracts that burn right at your touch 
The endless canvas, inescapable 
Evidence like that, it's not erasable

Your indigo eyes going wild
My mind going wilder, you mindreader
Pretend you don’t see the camera out mine
Pointed at you and your indigo eyes

Dunk my head in
A white paint can
Whiteout all these thoughts you’re in
Dunk my head in
A brain scan
See all the places that she’s been

It’s not crazy now
To help my ring out
My hair, your fingers combing
It’s not crazy now
To help me find out
If these theories
Are more than theoretical 

Your indigo eyes going wild
My mind going wilder, you mindreader
Pretend you don’t see the camera out mine
Pointed at you and your indigo eyes

It’s not crazy now
To help me find out
If you’re even
Possible

Indigo Eyes

No time to rest
You better reset
No time for sex
You better just rest
No time rest
When you don't have a bed
Just a tax table 
Full of books you haven’t read

No time for thinking

That’s when it
When it really sinks in
No time to be a human
When you’re automated
No time to tell them that
Your parts need replacing

LYRICS

Why work on myself
When I could work on the road
Why pay for therapy
When I could start by filling holes

I’ve got my
Best friend
It’s called
Cement

Road closed to through traffic
Because I’m done with seeing people
They just want to talk
You can talk to my

Road closed to through traffic
Because I’m done with seeing people
They just want to talk
You can talk to my windshield

Self-Construction

LYRICS
I’m dumb, I’m scared
I’m crawling to the basement
I heard a noise
but I thought I was all alone
The dreams I had
they are slowly fading
Should have known better than
to let you into my home *heart home *heart *heart heart heart heart heart

You’re a robber, you’re a killer- 
killing what you’re scared of
falling down the trap
too mysterious to handle
No instructions for this game,
you’re still searching in the box
No instructions you’re afraid
return me to the nearest shop and watch my pulse drop

This silhouette's familiar
but I haven’t cooked dinner
Should’ve checked the locks twice
Santa Claus won’t save me tonight
it’s halloween
I gave you the key
now i'm in between
dead silence or a scream 

I’m no longer hungry, I’m no longer breathing
My minds secure, but my heart’s shattered in pieces
the faucet’s dripping
but nobody’s listening
nobody’s listening 
to me
scream



This Love's A Killer

LYRICS
Once upon a time
In a world before Modest Management dictated the world
2 young, very attractive and very gay boys ran around... and unicorns existed.
This is a true story.

When you were 16
& he was 18
Sitting on the stairs 
For the world to see
Among five
But you ignored three
There's only one
That you wait for patiently

Step by step
Closer and closer
Wait for your chonce
Only getting older

It's so simple but effective
Its so stupidly repetitive 
You’ve always had your mind set
Do you want to pay rent on a closet?
It's so dark you need a flashlight
You don't need to join the dark side
It's so simple but effective
Propose your objective 
No one will blame
You but yourself
For not asking a question
That's so simple but effective

Simple But Effective

Wait till you're alone 
the feeling will rise
circumstances fall
in your mind
you don’t even know 
if its real or a joke
like the day before
with your arm around the girls
but you kissed it goodbye
turn back, you could try
there’s no left turn
and still no right
but a stranded road
and no where to go
I’ll fly a kite
raise my hopes tonight
So you better think twice

Think Twice

Spreading the word 
Like frosting on cake 
You've been working so hard
Why don't you celebrate 

The gnomes outside are your guardian angels
I've been watching you close, and know your life's unstable

The fire is tempting
But I got to keep you guessing 
The candles are melting 
But you're still second guessing

Unwanted mistakes 
No time to take a break
I'm just here to say
Shut up & celebrate

Hey, don't you know
They're all animals
On the prowl
For someone to knock down
Late at night
With glowing eyes
They make their mark
So you're scared of the dark 

The cake is only a flame now
Just Watch your tower fall down
Ashes only remain, scattered on the ground
Just pick them up
Just collect the dust
Fire away
You can still celebrate

Knife In The Cake

You look at me
You think of her
I give you gifts
You're still unsure
The girl has won
My time is done
That's what you say
But you don't know my way
At quarter to five
She'll be risking her life
For the boy who cried
Wolf ain't got nine lives
Fall on ur paws or you will die
Thrown off the cliff for another guy

He said
I want ur head on a platter
Just one kiss, your heart will shatter


You know what they'd say
If i loved they'd arrest
Got me breaking the chain
Claustrophobic with cardiac arrest
Ignore the warning signs
Caution: only got one life
I'll carry the weight
When you're falling behind
I didn't run
Not scared of a gun
All the things I've done 
I get carried away
All fun and games
Until somebody dies
Or loses a head
Better go to bed
And kiss this love goodbye


You made my day
You made my bed
You tucked me in
And a story you read
My dreams were filled
With guns and spears
I woke up shaking
And you were there

You're Next

LYRICS
Deception
In a mini lesson
Blurred out the faces of mine
Walking on a thin line

in the smoke
Shattered glass
The answers unfold
Behind my back

You’ll ask the questions
Because you’re out of luck
I keep you guessing
My mouth’s taped shut

Broken windows
Foggy glasses
Only clues that he left
Her heart's the only theft
Doesn’t matter who was right
Only matters that you’re wrong
Time is changing
But the words stay on your tongue

Under his breath
In restless relent
He told me the story
Again and again
But the ending was different
At the ending he said
Take a look all around you
I'm sorry, you’re dead

Riding on a late flight 
Trainwreck fills my dreams all night
I’ve gotta hunch it’s not going to be alright
……..Who turned off the light?



Deception

LYRICS:
You're not the only one leaving me
My surroundings are dying as we speak
Silence follows, I'm out in the open
But the trees are all taking their clothes off
Used to be color, now the world's grey
Thinking is painful- I'm in an ominous state 

The garbage is flowing
Flooding the river
Nothing of value,
It only gets steeper
Higher up
I keep climbing a hill
My grasp is weakening
My hope is killed

Make up your mind
Winter then summer
I was your obsession
But you moved on to another
Once you have possession 
You change your mind
Only the fight’s appealing
Peace is silence
You turn up the volume
To hear the screaming
I’m begging you
Oh I’m pleading
Don’t cut me off
With razor sharp
Glances at the exit
You make your mark
Get set, cold
We’re back to winter
I had my swimsuit
But now the sun is dimmer
What glows
Past the fire in your eyes
Who knows
If your intentions are good, are right


Destructive Seasons

LYRICS:
She's not afraid of the dark.
She's afraid of the stars.
x100000000

With a murder movie past
Can't blame want for last
Standing, living
Metaphorically killing

Can't start the car
Jump start my heart
I'm in the dark
But I'm not scared

She's afraid of your heart

Not Afraid Of The Dark

I asked what's the score
I wasn't keeping count
With you standing across the court
Words wouldn't leave me mouth
I was tripping over cracks
As the earth tried to help
Me get out of a situation
That seemed to go on for months
But the sun stayed out
Sending sweat to my skin
Shaking in the breeze
As you serve the ball in
I run for it as it bounced
Off the white line
Balance is important
When you are the focus of all eyes

I just want to be on your team
You're the winner of all types of things
You get a girl, trophy, name on a plaque
I get my face bruised from tripping over a backpack

I just want to be on your team
You're the winner of all types of things
Seven years of being the quarterback
I get put on the bench even though the team doesn't have enough players yet

On the off chance that you aren't in the game
I can count on you to root
For the other team
You shout out a name
You flirt with the girls
They twirl their hair in the sunlight
While mine is dripping from the rain
Ignoring me, what's in store for me?
I can count on you
To cause the pain

And then you glance at me
And walk away from me
And leave me standing beneath
A rain cloud that only I can see
Everyone else smiles
They frolic through the leaves
I try to smile
But no one will let me

I just want to be on your team
You're the winner of all types of things
You get a girl, trophy, name on a plaque
I get my face bruised from a rabid bunny attack

I just want to be on your team
You're the winner of all types of things
As I lay face down in the dirt I can hear you laugh
But you know what? I’m okay with that.

Maybe sports just aren't my thing
I always end up throwing it to the wrong team
Or scoring it in the wrong goal
Or rooting for the enemy
But i can't help it when
the enemy’s looks hypnotize
With a sideways glance that no one else can see
Tell me, Was the intended receptor me?
Or is this an interception?
At least I just scored my team a point.

The Other Team

LYRICS
They say I'm indecisive 
But there's really no choices

You want ice cream?
The stores are closed
It's winter
Have to settle for eating snow
You like two guys? But they're dating each other.
You think it's a blue sky? But it really has no color.

Uh-oh on no 


I say I'm indecisive 
But there's no decisions
To be made
So I'm Making it up
Make my own problems
If I made them myself
You'd think I'd be able to solve them

There's Marc 
There's Jake
There's lots of guys
But it turns out they're all gay
No one needs a bride
They're out playing football
I'm just a cheerleader
Tripping while trying to do a cartwheel



Uh oh
what were you thinking 
Uh oh
regretting all decisions




Indecisive Antics

Magic infiltrating my cleansed blood
Filling me up with its fantasy drugs
Masking emotions with a secret identity
Never runs out- electric eternity

It was all a miscalculation
Asked for your blood type- you wanted an explanation
No, it isn’t a problem
But still, you know that I’ll solve it

Even my horoscope can’t predict your moves
My magic 8 ball says that it has no clue

Can we just wash
off this face paint
It’s not even halloween
for another 3 months
How come your mood changes with the moon
Your emotions wake up when the sun goes down

I think you need to set an alarm
Your sleep schedule is getting out of hand
At night your eyes are glued to the stars
But during the day I can see you can barely stand

My horoscope says it’s fate
No, wait
I got the signs all wrong
Your facebook page is out of date
Your relationship status is still wrong

Face Paint

I can remember the day you said
You found a victim for your love
Or did I hear the whole thing wrong?
Or was it me you were speaking of?

You bought the arrows off of ebay
Started a business in giving  help
If you ask, no, i’m not okay 
I’d do anything for one touch

I can remember when I first heard your name
I knew your name but not your face
I had just discovered how
They planned to lock you 40 miles away

Your aunt, the jailor, holding the keys
I was broke and had no car 
But with my sense of misdirection
40 miles didn’t seem that far


I took it on myself to find
Who you were dead or alive

I took it on myself to find
If you were just passing by

With the puzzle still incomplete
I was crawling on my hands and knees
Didn’t have a picture of your face
I only had a sketch I made

Then down the tunnel I had went
desperation had overswept
You fell right out of a rain cloud
I tried to catch you before you drowned

Nonexistant Car

Here, I’m guilty again
I tried to turn neutral into mutual
But I can’t expect
You to feel the same way that I did

Oh x4

It’s just scientific
If I push you’ll pull
I took a step backward
Waited for the space to fill
But you didn’t chase after
My pathetic bait
And now I’m being avoided 
By all the fish again

Oh x4

Here, I did it again
I planned out things that are never going to happen
I just thought there was a chance
But you proved me wrong again

Oh x4

When you said friends 
I thought you meant more
I thought relationship
Was what you were looking for
But the water’s too deep
And I was thrown off the dock
I’m at the bottom of the sea
The lifeguard already drowned

Oh x8

There Are No Fish In The Sea

You’re telling me to face my fears.
But what if my fears are for a reason?
My fears are the things
that keep my body breathing.

New roller coaster in town
With a permanent drop off
Put my name and number on that list
I guess it’s time for take off

Reserve me a spot
In the audience
Watching a show
A narrative of everyday life
Jam packed jump scares
But fight the flinch
I’m pleading to end it
But the view is magnetic

My fear was healthy
Just an everyday habit
Keeping me from harm
Until the harm was prescribed as my medication

Inhale the smoke
Until the wolf blows
Down the house
You’ll have to join him out front

Strapped in at the dinner table
My mom tells me the chicken is a train
Choo-chew, doesn’t she remember?
I’m a vegetarian

At the latest party
And I’m surrounded by addicts
But they’re a good influence
Got me to try new things

Tell me to face my fear 
And now I’m face-to-face with fear
Tell me to face my fear 
And now I’m face-to-face with fear

Face-To-Face With Fear

Leave A Mark

Cherry vanilla calories
The label stated poison but I doubted credibility 
My friends, my aunt, my dad they warned 
But I'm my own person 
And I'm getting kind of thirsty


Cherry vanilla lemonade
I guess it’s an acquired taste

It begged for me to drink it
I didn't want to be rude
I was sober for a month 
But now I crave the taste of love 

And I went on drinking
Osmosis in the blood 
Cherry vanilla seeping through me
I kind of crave the taste of love

So, life handed out lemons
But I forgot to ask for sugar
One sip this lemonade sucks
I prefer your blood, it’s not as bitter

Acquired Taste

LYRICS
I'm really sick of being ignored 
You think I’m satisfied with just one word

Turn your back and write a novel with* her
She begs for a sequel, but I’m your publisher 

I hear you get rewarded every time you're bad 
I guess the devil tempts before he attacks

When reading her lines, 
She mispronounced your name
You blamed the font size
And set the script aflame

One second it’s fine
But then, oh, you brought her
Now I’m casted as the coach
And you’re yourself, the player*

x2
*about
*I'd audition as the coach if I knew you were the player

Now Who's Your Publisher

Now I got you where I want you
Let me take you for a ride
Just a hand in my back pocket
You say it’s not yours but it’s not mine…

Now I’ve gotten where I want to
How long, did we specify?
Just a hand in my back pocket
You say it’s not yours but it’s not mine...

It’s just a joyride, baby, without the joy
The oval track made  me dizzy
Straight line see how far we’ll go
Before I see someone better on the side of the road

Now it’s getting darker
I know you’re not a fool
You’d get there faster 
If you go by foot

Now it’s getting colder
You ask for my jacket
I turn the AC up
And say it’s my ex’s, but you can have it

Now I got you where I want you
Let me take you for a ride
Just a hand in my back pocket
You say it’s not yours but it’s not mine…

It’s just a joyride, baby, without the joy
The oval track makes me dizzy
Straight line see how far we’ll go
I see someone better on the side of the road
 
The tank’s empty but still 100 speed,
Why are the brakes out? Why won’t you leave? 
Careful jumping out, dear
There’s the police, you can ask them for a lift

Side Of The Road

Camouflaged into the stairs,
You stay on the first floor,
Say you’re scared of what’s in the basement
It’s just decorated in hallucinations

Camouflaged into the couch
Wouldn’t mind if you sat down
Now you’re leaving, what’s the rush 
Camouflaged with the exit
    
Camouflaged tires under the car
Don’t leave me on a hit and run
What you’ve done, whatever you are
I know I’d like to get to know this one

Camouflaged the voice in the call,
Someone else’s voicemail 
Numbers are alike, numbers I typed
Camouflaged into the save data

Shifting into another being
Don’t remember this person in the mirror
Mouth tacked up, forever stuck
Overdosed on prescribed optimism

Shifting into a chair
Waiting in a waiting room
Ever return? A call or your presence?
Future? Only know the present tenses

Think it’s shapeshifting
But I’m still the same
Person I was just yesterday
Just a facelift, facelift away 
From looking as happy as before you came

Then Left.

Camouflage

You think you’re in a good place
I’m gonna put you in THE good place
You think you saw an angel
Don’t get your hopes up, you devil
No, you are headed to the lowest level

I will follow you into the black of night
Or until you admit that I’m right
Have a near death experience
And come right back for more
 
You think you know what’s best for you
But it’d be best to let Grim make his debut
Just bones, he can’t sign the papers
I’m stuck with you til the phone calls taper off

You’re lookin’ to jailbreak out of this hell
Keep lookin’ but there’s no key for your cell
Think you’re gonna jailbreak out of my heart
You’re stuck here, that’s the best part
 
Follow you to a dead end
Keep up, your mind’s wandering
I will press you up against the wall
Feeling up, it’s just protocol

So you better keep your mouth shut
Unless my lips are on it
I want your hands where I can’t see them
I’ll let lips arrest, they’re the best at talking

You are looking to jailbreak out of this hell
Keep on looking but there’s no key for your cell
Think you’re going to jailbreak out of my heart
You’re stuck here, that’s the best part

What’s the crime, just a shattered ego
So you think I don’t have the credentials
Take it to the man in the castle
Better yet the woman in front of you

Turn around, and turns out there were several
Everyone’s breaking and entering--
my heart-- doesn’t have an exit
There’s no key for their cell

You’re lookin’ to jailbreak out of this hell
Keep lookin’ but there’s no key for your cell
Think you’re gonna jailbreak out of my heart
You’re stuck here, that’s the best part

Put you in, you think I could get you out
But once you said it once, all I can think about
I know you want to break up
But can you break out of jail

My heart
In hell
My heart

Jailbreak

No need to walk around me, you can’t 
Might want to invest in a chair or just stand
Because the money’s out, I’m broke, it’s gone  
I spent it all on this couch
  
It’s red, flammable
It’s soft, tangible
You’re hot, dangerous
A little scared of us
It’s red, flammable
It’s soft, tangible 
You’re hot, dangerous
A little scared of us

We aren’t scared of the couch
It was so damn expensive
Now we can’t afford any fear
Why are you sitting on the floor

Television, I deleted
What’s there to do in the dark
There’s plenty of space to sit 
Or even you know what

You can take up the whole couch
I’ll just sit on your back
So you can’t get up
When the graphics fail again

It’s red, flammable
It’s soft, tangible
You’re hot, dangerous
A little scared of us
It’s red, flammable
It’s soft, tangible
You’re soft, tangible
You’re hot, flammable

We aren’t scared of the couch
It was so damn expensive
Now we can’t afford any fear
Why are you sitting on the floor

Burned my corn flakes again
These roommates won’t stop screaming
Accidentally deleted the phone 
Couldn't remember the number for 911

But we can’t leave now
I just bought this couch
And if it can’t fit through the door
Delete the door so you can’t leave too

Television, I deleted
What’s there to do in the dark
There’s plenty of space to sit 
Or even you know what

You can take up the whole couch
I’ll just sit on your back
So you can’t get up
When the graphics fail again
 
We aren’t scared of the couch
It was so damn expensive
Now we can’t afford any fear
Why are you sitting on the floor

I Spent $900 On A Couch For My Sims

LYRICS
You are maybe a bit of a control freak
Push the captain off the ship - but not your fault if we both sink

Tossed and turned and turned and turned inside the ship
Inertia won’t get me closer to your lips

Eyes, fog, you’re looking down
Up here, you’ve made your rounds
Looking everywhere but
My eyes are red like a flag sailing

In Ca na na na na na na na na da
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh 
In luh uh uh uh uh’ve with everyone
Because compared to you, anyone’s The One

One, two, three’s a crowd
Captain, bye bye
Romantic turned into
Steel eyes

We’re going to break so many things
Break this up is the first on the list
Break your heart is just a special effect
Pixar’s best work, I admit

And maybe maybe maybe I’m a bit selfish
Jumping off the ship, and checking out the captain
Swimming to land, and calling the ambulance
Not my fault the cops showed up too
Not my fault that I can’t hurt you
Not my fault that I’ve moved on from you

To Ca na na na na na na na na da
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh 
In luh uh uh uh uh’ve with everyone
Because compared to you, anyone’s The One

Have to have to have to get getaway
From your oh so AH and your mysterious hey
WanderwanderLUST, over the border
But we all know that it still isn’t over

Of course I know you love to talk
You love to run your mouth
It needs its exercise

Here they are, a pro at judging-prose
But now they’re looking, where did she go
If you’re desperate I’m in

Ca na na na na na na na na da
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh 
In luh uh uh uh uh’ve with everyone
Because compared to you, anyone’s The One

CaNaNaDa

LYRICS

Straight chartreuse 
Why can’t I just tell the truth
She’s looking up 
Like she can see through the roof

Two shadows
From one spotlight
What happens in the second
When they turn off the light

I bet the glassy eyes wouldn’t notice if
My lips turned indigo all within a minute
I bet the glassy eyes wouldn’t notice if
Straight chartreuse changed shades to your lipstick

Straight chartreuse 
Why can’t I just tell the truth
She was looking up 
Now she’s already on the roof

Two stories high
And I’m scared of heights 
What happens when the roof
Can’t support your lie

I bet the glassy eyes wouldn’t notice if
My lips turned indigo all within a minute
I bet the glassy eyes wouldn’t notice if
Straight chartreuse changed shades to you lipstick

Straight chartreuse 
Why can’t I just tell the truth
She’s looking up 
Like she can see through the roof

Two shadows
From one spotlight
What happens in the second
When they turn off the light
