lyrics

it's good to see you, where've you been so long?
time isn't a thing, i knew it all along
your body is rotting, what are you gonna do?
you're actually nothing as long as i am too 

i give up on you, oh no
i give up on you, oh

i surpass you in spite and innocence 
i feel stupid, something i never missed

i give up on you, oh no
i give up on you, oh

i give up on you

lyrics

i've been traveling down the wrong road babe
you don't give a fuck about me and i feel the same
i seem to second guess myself it's all i ever do

so it seems
you've gone away
you went out east back in may
it seems you came back a different person than before
i miss you, where'd you go?

i don't know why it seems that all i do is make you cry
you keep saying that you love me and i don't know why
you've been pretty happy it seems with another man

so it seems
i've gone away
to some place that's not the same
it seems that i might be a different person than before
i miss us, where'd we go?

it seems

lyrics

in her room i feel whole
but you can't die if you're not living
i don't see what i mean
you can't die if you're not living

cover my bed with lots of roses
like that movie with Kevin Spacey
lift me up and bring me back down
to the ground now

i don't care what you mean to me
you can't die if you're not living
might as well be on my own again
you can't die if you're not living

fill up my head with lots of wishes
like that sad song by Elton John
lift me up and bring me back down
to the ground now

you can't die if you're not living

"selfish"

guitars, bass, vocals, harmonica, programmed drums

lyrics

you remind me of nothing i've felt

crashing, crushed
feels like a hurricane tearing through my guts
selfish

you remind me of nothing i've felt
you remind me of nothing i've dealt

endless, dark
feels like a fault line ruptured right through my fucking heart
selfish

selfish

lyrics

i wasted time, wrote you a stupid letter
cut it to pieces, got no paper shredder
i don't know what i'm going to do

i wrote it down but it's a bunch of bullshit
you don't want me and i think that we both know it
i don't know if i'm trying too hard	
i shouldn't be trying at all

lately they say i just need to be myself
but these paragraphs are only half done
maybe someday i will still let you read it

i wasted mine got you a stupid present
you treat me fine like i'm a stupid peasant 
i don't know what i am to you
you don't know what i am to you 

lately they say i just need to be myself
but these paragraphs are only half done
maybe someday i will still let you read it

lyrics

i want it all but you don't got it
and if i fall back to the bottom
at least i'll know that you don't have it
at least i'll know that i never had it

now you're just at work

i want it all but you don't got it
and if i fall out of love with you
at least i'll know that i never had it
at least you'll know you almost had heaven

now you're just at work

work

"gulo"

guitars, bass, vocals, sampled/programmed drums

lyrics

you stood me up on your birthday 
even though i was there the whole time
i made you cupcakes
i don't know why i would mean anything
overwhelmed by everything

suddenly i feel like i'm erased 
suddenly i feel like i'm a waste

until you are moved in, married and far away

suddenly i feel like giving in
suddenly i feel like caving in

you have someone else that you live for
i don't have anyone in this world
you don't know what you want

gulo

"green eyes"
.
guitars, bass, vocals, harmonica, sampled/programmed drums
.
lyrics

blonde hair and green eyes that turn grey when they hit the right light
soft skin and long hair and such a body that you know it's not fair
i want you so bad but i can't have you
you know i want you but you know i'll never have you
it feels like i'm running in a fucking marathon and
i'll never get to what i want and i don't give a fuck now

in bed i want more
the way you feel, it's just what i can't afford
the way you hold me makes me so full
and i don't know if i can get it in the morning
we've stalled now and i don't know why
i'm just going to wake up in the middle of the night
don't give a fuck anymore so whenever you want to hold me 
just know that i ain't that sorry

"you don't know"

lyrics

you don't know what you mean to me
i'll go lay down in the road and get hit by a car
suddenly i feel it in my bones
rearrange them all and i'd still be alone

you're in Italy with someone else

you don't know what you'd have with me
i'll go lay down on the tracks and get hit by a train
stuck in neutral and i can't get ahead
every day's a fucking disaster
i don't know what you're after

you're somewhere else with him

you don't know
