Hurts (LANY cover)

Tenenbaum (The Paper Kites cover)

seventeen by kimi carter

LYRICS:

do you keep my toothbrush
at your house
just in case i might wanna come back
are you afraid of fighting for me
my dear?
or just afraid that things just won’t last
and all this time
i don’t know what to do
i promise honey
i’m not asking much of you

(chorus)
it’s a give & take
it’s all or nothing, love
it’s real or fake
i swear i am not asking much
i just want you babe
but “i love you”s just not enough
to heal this hurt
to mend this pain
it’s more than words
it’s give & take

does my voice still 
follow you around
in that house you said i could call home
melodies 
that could haunt you to sleep
echoing the words
“where did you go?”
do you wake up in the middle the night
fighting for air cuz i’m nowhere in sight?
with my hand in a fist
i admit i’d still put up a fight

chorus

and was i still in the back of your head
saying, “maybe could you choose me instead?”
or was i gone, without any regret
without a word, did you completely forget?

chorus x2

do you keep my toothbrush
at your house
just in case i might wanna come back

give & take (rough recording)

dumb (demo)

LYRICS 

you’re such a comedian
you always made me the butt of your jokes
sweep me under the rug again
just hoping that nobody knows
you’re standing on tables in front of your friends
and so the story goes
i don’t think i can do this again
but no one even knows

my car won’t start
it’s getting dark
and i’m far from home
well they are out for blood 
and blood only i can give
it’s easy to put me at the end of everybody’s list
but i loosen a tight fist 
& resist 
the grudge i hold
towards the evangelist
who insists
he’s not fools gold

you’re such an extraordinaire
you always knew every right thing to say
i would’ve followed you anywhere
at anytime of any day
but even then, did you even care?
before the curtain was pulled away
but where you wanted me was right there
a manipulating me everyday 

chorus

thank God that those wedding bells
always sounded out of tune to me
pacing back & forth through hell
after you begged me not to leave
at seventeen it was hard to tell
all the tricks you hid up your sleeve
that was the hardest i ever fell
but that’s the worst it will ever be

chorus
