[ANTHONY and JOEY, in a bar that is really just their apartment. Younger and hungrier. ANTHONY perches by the edge of the stage, looking into the dance floor like he is going to fall off in a second. JOEY leans on the bar with affected casualness, but after he shifts a little to sip his drink, he carefully repositions himself exactly back to where he was. Neither of them are dancing.]

ANTHONY:
TRY NOT TO WISH THAT I’D JUST STAYED HOME IN BED
TRY TO IGNORE GUYS TALKING OVER MY HEAD
CHOKE DOWN A CHASER, PRETENDING TO TEXT
MAKE SURE MY LOCK SCREEN CROPS OUT MY EX

JOEY:
TRY NOT TO FREEZE AGAINST A FOREST OF EYES
PULL DOWN MY JEANS TO TRY AND BREAK UP MY THIGHS
TRY NOT TO SPEAK SO MY VOICE DOESN’T CRACK
IGNORE HOW THEY TITTER WHEN I TURN MY BACK

ANTHONY/JOEY:
BUT THIS WILL BE GOOD

JOEY:
DESIRE LIGHTS ME UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE

ANTHONY/JOEY:
THIS WILL BE GOOD

ANTHONY:
BUT EVERY HEATED GLANCE I CATCH AT MISSES ME

ANTHONY/JOEY:
THIS WILL BE GOOD, AS GOOD AS I CAN DO
'CAUSE BOTTOM-FEEDERS ARE STILL FISH IN THE SEA
JUST LOOK, I'LL BE GOOD
GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU

ANTHONY:
I SEE THIS ALL-AMERICAN BOY BY THE BAR
HIS SHIRT'S STILL ON, DOES HE KNOW WHERE WE ARE? 
LEANING LIKE HE'S LOOKING FOR HIS PICKET FENCE
HE'S NODDING TO THE MUSIC BUT HIS SHOULDERS ARE TENSE
I'M ALWAYS SOMEONE'S PORCELAIN DOLL
OR HIS BRITTLE DREAM OF BAMBOO
I CAN BE THE BOY YOU NEED 
IF YOU SNAP ME RIGHT IN TWO

AND WHO ARE YOU,
ALL CORN-SILK HAIR AND MAPLE TREE,
DON'T YOU KNOW
WHAT I THINK I KNOW YOU WANT FROM ME? 

I SWEAR I'M STILL GOOD
THE LAST BRUISED PEACH AT THE BOTTOM OF THE BIN
I’M STILL GOOD
SINCE WHEN IS NOT BEING CHOSEN A SIN?
I'M GOOD, AS GOOD AS ANY OF YOU
‘CAUSE THE RUNT OF THE LITTER TRIES HARDEST TO WIN
I SWEAR I'LL BE GOOD
GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU

JOEY:
DON'T SNIFF THE BAIT IF YOU'RE NOT GONNA BITE
IT'S GETTING LATE, IT'S BEEN A LONG NIGHT
I DON’T WANT TO BE YOUR “ONLY EXCEPTION”
OR TREATED LIKE A BACHELORETTE
I CAN REEL YOU IN WITH A PRIMED PERCEPTION
BUT I HAVEN'T MASTERED HOOK-AND-SINKER YET

AND WHO ARE YOU,
WITH PRETTY EYES, SOFT INGENUE, 
DON'T YOU KNOW
WHO I THINK YOU THINK YOU'RE TALKING TO? 

I SWEAR I'M STILL GOOD
THE CRUSHED UP CHIPS IN THE BOTTOM OF THE BAG
I'M STILL GOOD
I COULD HAVE A DATE, BUT I'M JUST GOING STAG
I'M GOOD, AS GOOD AS ANY OF YOU
THE KID WHO'S IT ALWAYS WANTS TO PLAY TAG
I SWEAR I’LL BE GOOD
GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU

JOEY:
GOD, YOU'RE FLAWLESS

ANTHONY:
GOD, YOU'RE STUNNING

JOEY/ANTHONY:
YOUR LOVE COULD MAKE ME PERFECT, TOO

ANTHONY:
MY HAIR WOULD BE BLONDER-

JOEY:
MY VOICE WOULD BE LOWER-

JOEY/ANTHONY:
I’LL WAKE UP JUST AS HOT AS YOU

AND I WON’T HAVE ANY REASON
NOT TO DANCE IN THE LIGHT

JOEY:
I KNOW YOU'LL REGRET THIS-

ANTHONY:
YOU'LL REGRET THIS

JOEY/ANTHONY:
BUT I'LL GET YOU FOR TONIGHT

BUT I SWEAR YOU'RE STILL GOOD
SO NO NEED TO LOOK FOR BRUISES THAT I COULDN'T SEE
YEAH, YOU'RE STILL GOOD
BECAUSE I MIGHT DISCOVER YOU'RE BETTER THAN ME
YOU'RE GOOD,
BUT MAYBE IF YOU ARE THEN YOU CAN TEACH ME TO BE
STILL GOOD
GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU

Good Enough (GHOST STORY demo by Mel Hornyak and Elliot Valentine)

The Ship of Theseus

Hollow Steps

Dirt Poor Robins - Behemoth (Don't Blame Us)

I'm dragging out a fight
And who's a coward?
It better never start
Just pass it forward
I thought you'd be alright
Without a someone

The chains are tightening
The car arrives on time
Ain't it funny how?
We live a different life
Ever since you wrote
That one line

We might be wrong
About all I know
And I'm sorry now
The pass will lead
Where the story will go on
As I disappear

I thought you'd be alright
Without a someone
The war never stops
Can't take this any longer
As I'm failing to love ya
