In Betweeners

Cherry Blossom

Needless to say I took too many hits
It's another type of high when you can't move your lips
And you're staring at the skyline
Wondering if you might never come down

We walk down the hill while I screech out Rihanna
Please wait at the corner, I just reached nirvana
And I'm trying to save it
Cause once it's gone I'll crave it
But I'll let the serotonin come down

The streetlights hum a song of eerie sadness
A perfect time to descend into madness
When it's four a.m. and I'm walking the streets of my neighborhood
Turn the TV on just to watch the commercials
The 24 hour diners feel like churches
When it's four a.m. and the end of the world feels so good

I breathe in the cool air and breathe out the hours
Cause I can't think straight, but I swear I got powers
And i'm drowning in kalopsia
Hanging onto what's been left behind
I recall old memories I lost long ago
I can't grasp onto em but I can't let go
So I light myself on fire
Just to get a little higher
And let my childhood unwind

The streetlights hum a song of eerie sadness
A perfect time to descend into madness
Cause it's four a.m. and I'm walking the streets of my neighborhood
Turn the TV on just to watch the commercials
The 24 hour diners feel like churches
When it's four a.m. and the end of the world feels so good
Mmmh mh mmmmh

Woah oh oh woah
Oh oh
Ooh ooh oooooh

four a.m.

Found a subway card buried in my wallet
If I was cooler I wouldn't need it
But it expires at the end of the month
And I haven't been to New York in so long

With or without you
I'm gonna find it
I'm gonna find what makes me whole
Cause I have to
Cause I can't keep walking around with missing pieces I don't know yet

So I take the red line down to Union Station
I drive past embassies and office buildings
I go as far as I can without getting lost
Through the worst heat waves and bitter icy frost
Knowing home could never last forever
Knowing how much time I've had to get my shit together

And I miss the museum hours of pure discovery
I miss thinking by now I'd be somebody
And the subway card we'd smile and swipe
Is expiring tomorrow night

With or without you
I'm gonna find it
I'm gonna find what makes me whole
Cause I have to
Cause I can't keep walking around with missing pieces I don't know yet

Liminality

Subway Card

16 years of listening
Of speaking out, of bickering
I never thought my worst fears could ruin your best intentions
You always said you couldn't care
But I knew that wasn't fair
How I miss the days when you could answer all my questions

But I've spent so long with everything thought out for me
I've spent too long in the passenger's seat

So
Get out, get out, get out
And shout, shout, shout it out
Play that old Drake song on repeat
Get out, get out, get out
And scream and yell
Shout it all out
Cause I got the keys
Now I'm in the driver's seat

10 months since the world's demise
It's crazy how the time flies
I learned history don't repeat itself but it sure rhymes
I wouldn't say I'm happy
That simplifies it too much for me
All I can tell myself is I'm still somewhere on the journey

But every now and then I think of how it was
Before I lost my mind and then lost your trust
I'm still waiting on you
I got my license but I got nowhere to go

So
Get out, get out, get out
Fucked up again but you didn't shout
Play that Taylor song on repeat
Get out, get out, get out
And scream and yell
Shout it all out
Cause I got the keys
Now I'm in the driver's seat
In the driver's seat

So now I live the life you wanted for me
Hear my daily thoughts through Instagram stories
Ruin myself three or four days in a row
After my highest high comes my lowest low
Go till I crash and burn into your arms
I never saw the signs or heard alarms
But the headlines dig our past a deeper hole
I swear I don't hate you, I just want control

Oh

Get out, get out, get out
Fucked up again but you didn't shout
Play that Taylor song on repeat
Get out, get out, get out
And scream and yell
Shout it all out
Cause I had no clue what to do in the driver's seat
Oh, in the driver's seat

Driver's Seat

I'd do anything to stay here in this moment
And I'll do everything

Saturday, your place
Mom's car and someone else's fake
We take the lowest stakes and
Raise them together
Top down, headlights on
Dancing to the same three songs
We held the hottest days and burned em' up

If I could just bottle this up and keep it forever
That would be all I ever need
How I feel when we're together
Keeps the grass eternally green
The nights we ran around Reno
That's my immortal July
Nothing and everything, we know
While we stare up to the sky

And I've always felt so alone
But now I swear you can read my thoughts
And I've never felt so grown
But now we're driving, avoiding the cops
And I'd do anything to stay here in this moment
And I'll do everything to keep us frozen

Friday night, our weekly rite
No haves, an endless world of mights
Our growing list of oversights we laugh away
How dare you want more?
Our tripod's growing less secure
Cause what else are these two years for
If not mistakes

If I bottled this up and kept it forever
Would you be all I ever need?
An endless summer together
Won't keep me eternally green
The nights we ran around Reno
And made a deal with our gods
Nobody else know what we know
Even if we end up at odds

And I've always felt so alone
But now I swear you can read my thoughts
And I've never felt so grown
But now we're driving, avoiding the cops
And I'd do anything to stay here in this moment
And I'll do everything to keep us frozen

Woah
Woah
Woah
Is this how you'll remember me?

For my worst mistakes
My blacked out nights
Or your childish need to start a fight
When you're bored because you miss real life
And you just wanna go back to that first night
November, my basement
Back before the whole world went to shit
Back when your eyes gleamed in innocence
Think we lost it right when we took that first sip

And I've always felt so alone
But now I swear you can read my thoughts
And I've never felt so grown
But now we're driving, avoiding the cops
And I'd do anything to stay here in this moment
And I'll do everything to keep us frozen

And I've always felt so alone
But now I swear you can read my thoughts
And I've never felt so grown
But now we're driving, avoiding the cops
And I'd do anything to stay here in this moment
And I'll do everything to keep us frozen

Frozen

I could go months without hearing your name
And the day I forget it, you call me back
I find you drenched in the pouring rain
Saying you hate the highs and the platinum plaques

I'm tired of being open and honest to boys who'd rather hide me
You're a-ok lying to the world if you'd still get to confide in me
I'm scared to be, scared to be left alone but you didn't know that
There's a part of me being your secret brought out but I won't show that

You were the weed in my garden
I should have just cut you loose
But I thought we could be a flower
Oh
The crime that I'd pardon
Tragic flaw that I'd excuse
Cause you knew you had all the power
Oh ooh woah oh
The scared boy they don't see
Chewed me up and swallowed me
Then laughed it all off as some cruel joke
Oh
The skeptics and hell nos
Laid on their "I told you so"s
Cause they knew you're just a mosquito that's bugging on me

Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh woah oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh

We'd stay up until the sun pours through my windows
And then go about our days like acquaintances
I don't know how much more I can handle
Of this daily dose of your endless mess

I'm tired of thinking bout you when it's clear I don't cross your mind
Try your wayward ways on anyone else, they won't be so kind
Then see how it feels to be left all alone like you did to me
You claim you've been misunderstood, but I think you just don't wanna see

You were the weed in my garden
I should have just cut you loose
But I thought we could be a flower
Oh
The crime that I'd pardon
Tragic flaw that I'd excuse
Cause you knew you had all the power
Oh ooh woah oh
The scared boy they don't see
Chewed me up and swallowed me
Then laughed it all off as some cruel joke
Oh
The skeptics and hell nos
Laid on their "I told you so"s
Cause they knew you're just a mosquito that's bugging on me
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh woah oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh
You know you're just a mosquito

Mosquito

I've been dreaming bout a type of isolation
Not by judgement or disease or separation
Just a packed bag with no destination
Somewhere far away from all my revelations
I've been manifesting, doing affirmations
Felt a new current in the earth's vibration
I've been longing for a kind of isolation
Exile's my new favorite vacation

No, don't you cry
You're wasting my time
Cause I got to catch my flight
I'm leaving soon
Headed to the moon
Where I always said I loved you to

And I got tired of the fighting
This failing but still trying
And I can't be the bigger person
Cause it just leaves me worse every time

I've been dreaming bout a type of isolation
Not by judgement or disease or separation
Just a packed bag with no destination
Somewhere far away from all my revelations
I've been manifesting, doing affirmations
Felt a new current in the earth's vibration
I've been longing for a kind of isolation
Exile's my new favorite vacation

Someday I hope
This will all be some cruel joke
The winds of change will finally subside
Though I still see
The twinkle in your eyes
I know what we had is dead inside

Cause I would rather be silent
Than start another conflict
But my thoughts start getting violent
So I got to go
Goodbye

And I hope you know the worst things you heard are all true
I set everything I had on fire for something new
And I know how bad this all looks from your point of view
All the gunfights and the limelights
They brought me back to you
Now I'm standing on the tarmac thinking it's my time
Time to face the music cause nothing seems to rhyme
Time to say I'm sorry
Please don't say it's fine
Cause I lost my path and I can't go back
So I got to say goodbye
I got to say goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye

Isolation

Best Friend

I love your face, attitude, and style
Can’t stand your brown eyes and your smile
Crying for you and I ain’t no crocodile
Lost track of my time, I’m with you meanwhile

But you touch me, you shake me
You could make me go insane, what goes on in my brain
Pink, I like the way you think
Let’s go get a drink, we’re on brink of a lip sync

Let’s be honest, let’s be honest
You’re so flawless, you are flawless
You know I want it, know I want it
Since I guess we’re just trying to be honest

I could sit and write about you all day long
Poem, story, biography, or a song
You and I together, we could be so strong
But baby I don’t want you feeling like it’s wrong

But with me, we could be so free
Like la da da di, you are all I need
High, we could feel so high
It’s just you and I, never gonna die, gonna fly

Let’s be honest, let’s be honest
You’re so flawless, you are flawless
You know I want it, know I want it
Cause I’m trying so hard but I just can’t stop it
Let’s be honest, let’s be honest
I know you want it, know you want it
Just like you promised, like you promised
Since I guess we’re just trying to be honest

Oh baby I’m in a state of mind
No maybes, a yes or no is fine
We’re so close and I won’t lose this time
And I’m gonna discover

Why don’t we just talk and be honest with each other
Do you see me as a friend, do you see me as a

please

Let’s be honest, let’s be honest
You’re so flawless, you are flawless
You know I want it, know I want it
Cause I’m trying so hard but I just can’t stop it
Let’s be honest, let’s be honest
I know you want it, know you want it
Just like you promised, like you promised
Since I guess we’re just trying to be honest
