LYRICS:
Am I losing my mind?
Am I losing my mind?
Maybe
Am I losing my mind?
Am I losing my mind?
Maybe

Once upon a time in the suburbs
The fog was thick and I was feeling twisted
I had a friend doing lines with a lover
And another was sick throwing up in the kitchen
We had Mac Dre on
We made a club out the living room, turn the bass up
We had Mac Dre on
Our sun was the moon, our day started at dusk

There was something about it that I think I loved, though
Something ‘bout the fights in the street made the blood flow
Something about the lights from police when the sun rose
Seeing red and blue lights hit the blunt smoke
There was some kinda home in it
Like in the moment, drunk and stoned, we were owning it
Like we sunk so low we painted hell gold
And we faked like our wings weren’t broken

Am I losing my mind?
Am I losing my mind?
Maybe
Am I losing my mind?
Am I losing my mind?
Maybe

Once upon a time in the suburbs
I found freedom in my cup of who gives a fuck
I was mending a mind full of gutters
With a dream I’d get inside through a doorway made of slime
We had Young Curt on
Get me fucked up, let’s burn one
We had Young Curt on
‘Till the sun’s up, I’m another person

It’s like I found suicide in the night
To grab another drink was to slide in the knife
To take another hit was a .9 to the mind
and I’d lie like - boy, this the time of my life
So gimme that shot, yeah, I’m trynna get fucked up
Gimme a broad, yeah, I’m trynna get sucked up
I wanna be gone like one drip to the sea
‘Till dawn, I’ll forget that I’m me

Am I losing my mind?
Am I losing my mind?
Maybe
Am I losing my mind?
Am I losing my mind?
Maybe

LYRICS:
Oh, I feel like I made it outa hell
Like I’d been living in somebody else’s shell
It was like no choice I made was my own
It was like my mind was a slave
to somebody else’s hopes
So this is me setting me free
This the scene where the sunshine - it covers me
And to anything or anyone who’s cut me deep
I’ll say this with a gun up to your cheek

I’ma press undo
On all you’ve said
On all this blood
I’ma reclaim what you took
With every breath
Left in these lungs
I’ma let myself live good
(Live good)
(Live good)
(Live good)
I’ma let myself live good

I’m not what you say
I’m a bouquet
I’m a soufflé with a fade
I’ve gone Dufresne through the mud
And yeah, I’m Bruce Wayne with the pain
but if you’re playin’
I can be a villain with a cape on - woo!
I don’t got a limit to my name
I’ma kill it like I’m living in a dream as I’m making it up
‘Till I’m in a villa with a maid sippin’ lemonade
I’ma turn pain into pay and a view

I’m feeling my light
I’m feeling awake
You can’t take what’s mine
I don’t think about you
I’m feeling my light
I’m feeling awake
You can’t take what’s mine

So I’ma press undo
On all you’ve said
On all this blood
I’ma reclaim what you took
With every breath
Left in these lungs
I’ma let myself live good
(Live good)
(Live good)
(Live good)
I’ma let myself live good

I’ma let myself live good
I’ma let myself live good
I let myself live good

Live Good

Lyrics:
This is all trouble, she says
You’re looking like a double of you, she says
Like those eyes looking at me are some other color she says
Like why you drink so much
I love you but crying’ to sleep so much, I’m done with it
I looked her in the eye
And I said you can’t get this from kissing’ your wife

See life is a dream now
I feel peaceful
I feel freedom otherwise I can’t reach
This ain’t a glass it’s a type of key
To where they keep the brighter me

It’s like I got a monster, I says
It gets quiet when I chug a mug of lager, I says
And let me tell you it’s a bit a hell living with him around, I says
So why I drink so much
I’ll tell you, my mind’s a hive of bees
they’re yelling that I got no worth in my life
Like somehow I’m best with worms in my eyes

See life is a dream now
I feel peaceful
I feel freedom otherwise I can’t reach
This ain’t a glass it’s a type of key
To where they keep the brighter me

Brighter Me

Lyrics:
Baby, we’re light speed
Don’t look back, look at me
We’ll be fine, baby
Make the jump and they’ll see
Baby, we’re light speed
Don’t look back, look at me
Let’s drive, baby
I’ll sleep beside you in the freezing cold

Everything’s mountains and suns, come with me I say
Let’s find a river that’s too much and dive in anyway
Let’s earn our living
Let’s scream ‘till our lungs are ribbons
Like we’re a punk band in a warehouse yelling, oh lord

Oh, I don’t wanna be like them  
I wanna live life like a runaway can
Oh, I don’t wanna be like them
I wanna live life illuminated

Baby, we’re light speed
Don’t look back, look at me
We’ll be fine, baby
Make the jump and they’ll see
Baby, we’re light speed
Don’t look back, look at me
Let’s drive, baby
I’ll sleep beside you in the freezing cold

Our home is out on the run, ride with me, I say
If you find a road and chase the sun, the horizon stays in place
We’ll be mud in a minute
We’re brief like a handgun killin’
And maybe it’s a dream or it’s pleading or it’s hope

Oh, I don’t wanna be like them  
I wanna live life like a runaway can
Oh, I don’t wanna be like them
I wanna live life illuminated

Baby, we’re light speed
Don’t look back, look at me
We’ll be fine, baby
Make the jump and they’ll see
Baby, we’re light speed
Don’t look back, look at me
Let’s drive, baby
I’ll sleep beside you in the freezing cold

Light Speed

I wrote this one after a pretty depressing breakup.  Regardless, I hope you love it.  It's available on all streaming services.  Lyrics below.

LYRICS:
I don’t regret it
That’s a weak emotion
But when I think of you
I weaken so much
It’s like every time I tried
You cut us up
Like you was made of cyanide, buttercup

When I tried to pull you up
You tried to tear me down
I stopped caring your were mad
‘Cause it would wear me out

You’re like a villain in a way
Like beneath you are a weapon
It’s like everything about you’s a rebellion
And I don’t think you know it but you’re - 
You’re like an enemy

I’ve got a grave of dead wishes in my head
About the sunrises we won’t rise beneath
I wanna save this fiction in my head
But I can’t shake this vision of ledge

When I tried to pull you up
You tried to tear me down
I stopped caring your were mad
‘Cause it would wear me out

You’re like a villain in a way
Like beneath you are a weapon
It’s like everything about you’s a rebellion
And I don’t think you know it but you’re - 
You’re like an enemy

Enemy

LYRICS:

All I want is to
Let all of this go
Call me up, it’s you
You say let’s hit the road
I got soda pop
And them chips you love
You got the motor mouth
Let’s talk our way into some
Weddings where we know no one
You know if you dare me, I’ma do it, so what
Talk me into anything I never woulda done
‘Cause I need my heart racing like I’m facing a gun

I need a thrill, oh life got me wishin’
To burn my bills, no one will miss ‘em
I need some hills faraway
I need refillin’ with some kinda escape
I’ve been feelin’ like I’m done with my audition
You can keep the role and the tuition
Give me something to shock me back
Give me skin and an arching back

All I want is to
Let all of this go
Call me up, it’s you
You say let’s hit the road
I got soda pop
And them chips you love
You got the motor mouth
Let’s talk our way into some
Weddings where we know no one
You know if you dare me, I’ma do it, so what
Talk me into anything I never woulda done
‘Cause I need my heart racing like I’m facing a gun

I need a thrill, oh life can be vicious
I’m done with spillin’ all I got in wishes
I wanna steal me back
I want the feelin’ that I’m real and made of magic
I want my heart to pump like it’s an engine
I want my morning with some where you beens
I want my coffee in some other kitchen
Give me a war to put my devils in

All I want is to
Let all of this go
Call me up, it’s you
You say let’s hit the road
I got soda pop
And them chips you love
You got the motor mouth
Let’s talk our way into some
Weddings where we know no one
You know if you dare me, I’ma do it, so what
Talk me into anything I never woulda done
‘Cause I need my heart racing like I’m facing a gun

Oh, I’m done feeling numb, I wanna feel electrical
Oh, I’m a love machine
Oh, let’s have some fun, I don’t need nothing technical
Just jump in the mud with me

I want some 
Ooh oooh ooh
I need to taste me a tongue
I need a waist to be swung
Gimme a bank and a gun
Ooh oooh ooh
Oh, I’m the bass in the drums
Oh, let me take you and run

We’ll talk our way into some
Weddings where we know no one
You know if you dare me, I’ma do it, so what
Talk me into anything I never woulda done
‘Cause I need my heart racing like I’m facing a gun

Motor Mouth

I Hope They Play This In Toronto

Every time I think of you
I feel a little fucked up
Every time I think of you
I feel a little fucked up
I don’t think you get it
You made me wicked

I don’t want anybody no more
Take me out my body oh lord
Take me out my way, shit
Take me far away from this
Like new car, better get in
New spot, new women
You know god don’t listen
I can be your villain

I think I want blood
You should be running
I’m not who you loved
I’ve become a stranger

Every time I think of you
I feel a little fucked up
Every time I think of you
I feel a little fucked up
I don’t think you get it
You made me wicked

I don’t like anybody I see
You’re lookin like something I’d eat
I’m here for the kill, yeah
Chasing a feeling
I’m brand new in a bad way
I’m embracing my bad taste
I’m impatient
I’m blooming like a frag grenade

I think I want blood
You should be running
I’m not who you loved
I’ve become a stranger

Every time I think of you
I feel a little fucked up
Every time I think of you
I feel a little fucked up
I don’t think you get it
You made me wicked

LYRICS:
She’s looking like sugar, sugar, sugar
Sugar, sugar, sugar
Looking like sugar, sugar, sugar
Sugar, sugar, sugar

Each step she took had a ‘oooh’ to it
In a dress, hot damn, I would chew through it
Each step she took had a ‘oooh’ to it
Undressed, hot damn, she’s a scoop of you can wish
She had this slit up her thigh
Made me weak, made me like, oooh god
I see a cookie, two o’clock 
She had this slit up her thigh
Made me weak, made me like, oooh god
Now she’s a scoop of ooh-la-la

Looking like sugar, sugar, sugar
Sugar, sugar, sugar
Looking like sugar, sugar, sugar
Sugar, sugar, sugar

She’s a cupcake with an attitude to it
Hear that? What’s that?  That’s trouble on the loose
She’s a cupcake with an attitude to it
You know what?  What’s that?
She a double scoop of ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
She had this slit up her thigh
Made me weak, made me like, oooh god
I see a cookie, two o’clock 
She had this slit up her thigh
Made me weak, made me like, oooh god
Now she’s a scoop of ooh-la-la

Looking like sugar, sugar, sugar
Sugar, sugar, sugar
Looking like sugar, sugar, sugar
Sugar, sugar, sugar

It’s like she’s candy coated
She’s a berry you could hand me a bowl of
It’s like she’s candy coated
It’s like I’m staring at a cherry coca-cola

She’s lookin’ like sugar, sugar, sugar
She’s lookin’ like sugar, sugar, sugar
She’s lookin’ like sugar, sugar, sugar
She’s lookin’ like sugar, sugar, sugar

Looking like sugar, sugar, sugar
Sugar, sugar, sugar
Looking like sugar, sugar, sugar
Sugar, sugar, sugar

Sugar
