Let’s sing until our throats get numb and I don’t think this party is dumb,
but if I were to host it I’d pick something better than 
Listening to pop hits of last weeks that sound the same as last years
But let’s raise our glasses, to the birthday kid and say
“It’s alright, it’s okay, happy birthday”
 
Am I getting cocky? I should enjoy this fucking party
But things are looking grim, and someone just passed out in the backyard
I just want to leave and take you with me, 
If we leave early we can catch the train out of the city
“You can touch on, and touch off, with my myki
If I get a fine, that’s fine, that’s fine by/with me”

Another Party Song

try and try again
you bring me up and break me down
life is bland
i'm tired of playing around
new faces i don't know the voices of
yours is not the one i long for
anymore

i fell in love with a temporary tattoo
i risked a lot to ink my skin
but it fell through
and every day i miss the old you
i'm not saying that you gotta stay the same
but i didn't think you'd change

remember now and then
the way we used to feel, in love
now i'm spent
from hours of thinking i'm alone
how should i feel
now that you say the past few months
have not been real
you used me

i fell in love with a temporary tattoo
i risked a lot to ink my skin
but it fell through
and every day i miss the old you
i'm not saying that you gotta stay the same
but i didn't think you'd change
i'm not saying that you gotta stay the same
but i didn't think you'd change
yeah you changed
i wish you hadn't changed
but you changed

try and try again
you bring me up and break me down
life is bland

Song for the Sleepless

i've been keeping my bedroom door unlocked
just in case i need to escape my thoughts
they're never ending
they're never ending
i got a lot of ideas but no drive to achieve
all the things that i know i could probably be
so i'll keep pretending
i'll keep pretending

but you know me
and you see right through me

i know i haven't been the easiest to care for
it's hard to be myself
when i don't know who i am
even know who i am
i'm up waiting for you to text back you love me
it's hard to know what you'll say
when i don't know who i am
even know who i am

i've been faking my way through class every day
looks like [all] the problems i've made won't just go away
they're never ending
they're never ending
call it seasonal depression or whatever you want
but i feel like shit and i put up a front
i'll keep pretending
i'll keep pretending

but i know you
and i can't lie to you
i wish i could lie to you
but you make me face the truth

i know i haven't been the easiest to care for
it's hard to be myself
when i don't know who i am
even know who i am
i'm up waiting for you to text back you love me
it's hard to know what you'll say
when i don't know who i am
even know who i am
yeah I don't even know who i am
even know who i am
