LYRICS:

I keep seeing you in my dreams
But I don’t wanna play hopscotch with my heartbeat just yet
Too drunk to let go
Too sober to forget your face
I’m tryna slow things down, but I’m running mach speed
But I can’t catch you now, my legs are killing me
I’m just not where you’re at in the race
And I’m not in the right mind to pick up the pace
But if you can just hear me out and wait for me

I think I could love you
But I can’t love you right now
I can’t keep kissing you through a chain-link fence
And keeping my distance holding your hand
So how
How can I love you right now?

Your giggle makes me bubble like a mimosa
But my heart’s not ready to dance like Ricky
Livin’ la vida loca
Too drunk to get home
Too sober to forget your name
I’m tryna slow things down, but I keep hitting the brakes
But I can’t catch you now, I’m in last place
If you can just hear me out and wait for me

I think I could love you
But I can’t love you right now
I can’t keep kissing you through a chain-link fence
And keeping my distance holding your hand
So how
How can I love you right

I don’t wanna play
I don’t wanna play
I don’t wanna
I don’t wanna play
I don’t wanna play hopscotch
I don’t wanna play
I don’t wanna play
I don’t wanna
I don’t wanna play hopscotch with my heartbeat
I don’t wanna play
I don’t wanna play
I don’t wanna
I don’t wanna play
I don’t wanna play hopscotch
I don’t wanna play
I don’t wanna play
I don’t wanna
I don’t wanna play hopscotch with my heartbeat

If you can just hear me out and wait for me

I think I could love you
No, I can’t love you right now
I can't love, I can’t love
I can’t keep kissing you through a chain-link fence
And keeping my distance holding your hand
So how
How can I love you right now?

Lyrics:

I brush my thumb across your knuckles 
While we’re watching a movie 
We head back to my place 
And you fall asleep on me
We wake up in our jeans
Count the constellations in my ceiling 
I don’t need a rocket scientist to tell me what I'm feeling
‘Cuz the hair on the back of my neck stands on end 
When you are close to me

We’re in orbit now
I’ll revolute around you forever if you’ll have me
We can be our own little galaxy
Oh oh
It can be just you and I 
Each other’s little satellites
I thank the stars you’re mine

We’re in orbit now
We’re in orbit now

I feel a spark that’s on your fingers 
And it started a fire
I’m burning in the face 
And I’m walking the wire
My mind is running like an Olympic athlete in their prime time 
I don’t need a doctor just to tell me I am doing fine
‘Cuz baby the fever you give me I can’t hide 
When you are next to me

We’re in orbit now
I’ll revolute around you forever if you’ll have me
We can be our own little galaxy
Oh oh
It can be just you and I 
Each other’s little satellites
I thank the stars you’re mine

We’re in orbit now
And I’m trying to keep myself together 
But gravity is losing its effect on me
So I’m drifting off into the great wherever
‘Cuz forever’s whenever you are next to me

We’re in orbit now
I’ll revolute around you forever if you’ll have me
We can be our own little galaxy
Oh oh
It can be just you and I 
Each other’s little satellites
I thank the stars you’re mine

We’re in orbit now
And I’m trying to keep myself together 
We’re in orbit now
But gravity is losing its effect on me
We’re in orbit now
So I’m drifting off into the great wherever
We’re in orbit now

Orbit

Lyrics:

She told me I should dance more
For me it’s hard to say, 
“I’m not sure”
“My two left feet are broken” 
I just don’t do this often
Dance until I fall in love 
And I, I’m sure 
I’ve never danced that way before 

Everybody on the floor 
With Capriccio in hand
And if not, 
They had some crazy looking boozy La Croix cans
She saw me from across the room 
With an idea in her head
She came up to me and asked: 
“Do you dance?”
I froze ‘cuz I thought she was waiting here for her man
I said “I can, but usually I’m one in the band.”
She took my hand
Said where I stand 
I need to abandon that

She told me I should dance more
For me it’s hard to say, 
“I’m not sure”
“My two left feet are broken” 
I just don’t do this often
Dance until I fall in love 
And I, I’m sure 
I’ve never danced that way before 

Everybody sweating and swaying to the beat of the drum
And our bodies gone electric because of the rum
And I’m just with her
Pull each other closer
Now I’m thinking about when I should do this again 
‘Cuz I’m dancing my ass off, I don’t want it to end
She pulls me in, then she kisses me on the neck
Then she runs off


She told me I should dance more
For me it’s hard to say, 
“I’m not sure”
“My two left feet are broken” 
I just don’t do this often
Dance until I fall in love 
And I, I’m sure 
I’ve never danced that way before 


I’ve never danced that way before 
I’ve never danced that way before 

And I’m thinking about all the nice things she said to me 
About the way I move
The way I move 

We should dance more
For me it’s hard to say (We should)
“I’m not sure” 
“My two left feet are broken” 
I just don’t do this often
Dance until I fall in love (We should)
And I, I’m sure 
I’ve never danced that way before

(We should)
I’ve never danced that way before
I’ve never danced that way before 
(We should)

We Should Dance More

Lyrics:

You got a dictionary on hand?
I wanna know what you meant by that 
I wanna know what you meant by that
Hmm, no
Translating everything to understand
The kind of love that you’re needing and 
The kind of love you can comprehend
Hmm

I’mma be a wordsmith of your body and mind and soul 
Gonna be nobody who can read you like the way I do 
And every day I’m learning something new

I’m learning your love language 
Read to me, speak to me, teach it to me
It’s your love language 
Show me yours and I can show you mine 
Your love language
Heaven lingering, Duolingo-ing 
Your love language 
Teach it to me so I can love you right

I scored a thesaurus, of course
‘Cuz I don’t wanna bore us with too many clichés 
But the poor kids are pouring up champagne 
Eat a home cooked meal off paper plates
I’ll trace little doodles into your back
And find many more words to gift wrap
Hide ‘em all round the house before you come back
No

I’mma be a wordsmith of your body and mind and soul 
Gonna be nobody who can read you like the way I do 
And every day I’m learning something new

Lyrics:
I moved back into my childhood bedroom
But I’m still living out my suitcase 
I got nostalgia as a roommate 
I think I’m in need of a new space
I moved back into my childhood bedroom
And all my stuff I wanna rearrange 
Don’t get too comfy as you sit and wait 
For the call
That leave no hesitation, we’re gonna change a nation call

And I can’t sit still
Maybe I got a death wish
And I bet this will
Make me wish I hadn’t left yet 
But I can’t sit still
I got a beautiful dream on the other side of the sea
And I am going to meet it while I’m breathing still
No I can’t sit still

I moved back into my childhood bedroom
And that’s not something I am proud of
I know that silence can be loud
But I’m still waiting on the call
That leave no hesitation, we’re gonna change a nation call

And I can’t sit still
Maybe I got a death wish
And I bet this will
Make me wish I hadn’t left yet 
But I can’t sit still
I got a beautiful dream on the other side of the sea
And I am going to meet it while I’m breathing still
No I can’t sit still

I’m still living out my childhood bedroom 
I’m gonna need another suitcase

The Great Wherever

Childhood Bedroom

Lyrics:
I’m feeling the burn out 
I can’t get anything down 
Please 
I feel like I’m writing with white out 
Like an invisible ink only I know how to read 

I’m not playing the game right
I’ve been twisting the rules all wrong 
One bad move and I’ll be gone 

I’m all out of options 
All out of cards to play 
Go fish, swimming, oh
Can’t get past your poker face 
Backhanded, backgammon, blackjack
You don’t know jack 
I won’t take that, but 
I’m all out of options, 
but I’m still not gonna show my hand

Been having too many days where I just stare at the ceiling and just go:
“Uhhhhh f*ck”
Harder to describe the weight and the way 
That these feelings are eating me up 
Oh, I’m in need of an epiphany
some kind of symphony, somebody listening 
My thoughts are getting way too loud
So does anyone in the crowd have a little bit of dumb luck? 

I’m all out of options 
All out of cards to play 
Go fish, swimming, oh
Can’t get past your poker face 
Backhanded, backgammon, blackjack
You don’t know jack 
I won’t take that, but 
I’m all out of options, 
but I’m still not gonna show my hand

I’m not playing the game right
I’ve been twisting the rules all wrong 
One bad move and I’ll be gone 

I’m all out of options 
All out of cards to play 
Go fish, swimming, oh
Can’t get past your poker face 
Backhanded, backgammon, blackjack
You don’t know jack 
I won’t take that, but 
I’m all out of options, 
but I’m still not gonna show my hand

Dumb Luck

Lyrics:
I still can’t drive 
But I’m still stuck at a red light
I abide by yellow stripes
I never go over the line
By and by, I never lied
But you never told the truth
Biding time, never trying 
But I’m alright with being used

You make me nervous and primal 
A silver lining, spiral down 
So suffocate my vitals 
With gentle hands and libel 
Drown me in my own sound
I’ll still come around 

I used to cry
But now it's just the sun in my eye
Fall to night, let me drive 
Alone while the wolves all whine
By and by, you’ll still lie
‘Cuz you could never handle the truth
Biding time, save your smiling
When your blood turns from red to blue

You make me nervous and primal 
A silver lining, spiral down 
So suffocate my vitals 
With gentle hands and libel 
Drown me in my own sound
I’ll still come around 

And I think I’m running low 
God forbid you show me a scratch
So just say “Please love me,
Please love me,
Please love me”
All you gotta do is ask
I’m there in a flash

Yellow Stripes

Across timelines and for you pages
I still feed the illusion 
That I am still in your life
Between spotlights and costume changes
Smile to keep the illusion 
But I am still in your life

And I’m so bad at keeping up
And so tragically in love 
And I, I am still in your life
At least I wish I was

You put a comment down asking when am I 
gonna come around like it was nothing 
like I was still in your life
Between homeschool and graduation 
societal confusion
Was I ever in your life?

And I’m so bad at keeping up
And so tragically in love 
And I, I am still in your life
At least I wish I was, was
I wish I was
I wish I was, was
I wish I was
I wish I was
Oh, I wish I was

Am I still in your life?
Am I?
Am I…

I Wish I Was

Every song I’ve ever heard 
About downtown New York was lying to me
So here’s a song you’ve never heard 
About the night New York confided in me uptown
Just under the heights and just under the lights
Leaping off of the roof, like the cow and the moon
But the wind still catches and carries us to an incredible view

Crazy colors I have never seen before in the sky
But that’s New York on the fourth of July
Sparklers on our fingertips, technicolor dynamite
Let’s paint New York our colors tonight 

Every time I even start to think of the word “adventure”, 
I start to cry 
Because that word didn’t mean a goddamn thing 
Until you came into my life
Hop, skipping and dancing on subway platforms until nightfall
I think I grew wings this week 
And you had yours, and you said 
“Come fly with me”

Crazy colors I have never seen before in the sky
But that’s New York on the Fourth of July
Sparklers on our fingertips, technicolor dynamite
Let’s paint New York our colors tonight 

I’m in the back of a cab
I’m texting you where I’m at 
I was supposed to head home 
But the sky is closed right now
You think I could spend one more night on your couch?

Crazy colors I have never seen before in the sky
But that’s New York on the fourth of July
Sparklers on our fingertips, technicolor dynamite
Let’s paint New York our colors tonight
Tonight

NY On The 4th Of July

Lyrics:
Is there love at the end of the world 
is there love at the end of the world 
Hanging off for the sidewalk ends 
Hanging on for silent men 
Screaming but don’t make a sound 

Is there love at the end of the world 
Is there love at the end of the world 
Another light in space gone red 
Another sky is raised again 
Solar flares burning us down 

Is there love at the end of the world 
Is there love at the end of the world 
Hold your head high 
Maybe ten more times 
Hoping love comes back around

I found love at the end of the world
I found love at the end of the world

Love At The End Of The World

Lyrics:
Sugar smiles taste of salt from the tears
This is not what we wanted, I fear
She’s getting on a plane
He’s driving back to town
He doesn’t wanna wait
And she’s gonna touch down any minute now
I don’t know when we’ll be back around 
But right now 

We’re just bittersweet drunk sitting in my living room
Bittersweet drunk singing in a joyful sorrow 
Bittersweet drunk living with the end of the world 
We are beautiful
But it hurts

Hang a ghost light just above your head
I’m headed home, I don’t know when I’ll see you again 
She’s getting on a plane
He’s driving back to town
He doesn’t wanna wait
And she’s gonna touch down any minute now
I don’t know when we’ll be back around 
But right now

We’re just bittersweet drunk sitting in my living room
Bittersweet drunk singing in a joyful sorrow 
Bittersweet drunk living with the end of the world 
We are beautiful
But it hurts

My friends we’ll keep moving on
Oh, my friends we’ll keep moving on
While we drag our feet and slump our shoulders
We’ll pave a new street, build homes out of boulders
We’ll find another way

But right now we’re all just bittersweet drunk sitting in my living room
Bittersweet drunk singing in a joyful sorrow 
Living with the end of the world 
We are beautiful

Bittersweet drunk sitting in my living room
Bittersweet drunk singing in a joyful sorrow 
Bittersweet drunk living with the end of the world 
We are beautiful

Bittersweet Drunk

Lyrics:

I might Icarus myself into irrelevance 
Would you catch me like the ocean if I did?
Would you carry me to shore where just the night before 
I was happy just to be my father‘s kid?
Not anymore
Was I too confident?
Am I fighting for my dream or is it his?
It’s buried in my body
Everything about me
But I hope you remember something they’ll forget

I’ll lose a little bit of my cool 
And I’ll lose a little bit of the wind 
And I’ll lose a little bit of my groove 
And I’ll lose a little bit of my grin 
And I’ll lose a little bit of my home 
So I try to build another within my soul
‘Cuz after everything, I’m still whole

I look at myself 
The way I would want my lover to look at me 
I laugh at myself
Even when the sun’s beating down on my waxen wings 
I’m still flying 
Bet you’re dying to know if I’ve flown off the handle or not 
Not yet, not yet

I might Icarus myself into irrelevance 
Forget to write me down, confuse my name 
With a dream they never had
Or a little bit of madness
Everybody’s getting closer to the flame

I’ll lose a little bit of my touch 
and I’ll lose a little bit of my grind 
and I’ll lose a little bit of the color I take into my eyes
and I’ll lose a little bit of my home 
so I try to build another within my mind
‘Cuz after everything, it’s my life

I look at myself 
The way I would want my lover to look at me 
I laugh at myself
Even when the sun’s beating down on my waxen wings 
I’m still flying 
Bet you’re dying to know if I’ve flown off the handle or not 
Not yet, not yet

I’ll lose a little bit of my cool 
And I’ll lose a little bit of the wind 
And I’ll lose a little bit of my groove 
And I’ll lose a little bit of my grin 
And I’ll lose a little bit of my home 
So I try to build another within my soul
‘Cuz after everything, I’m still whole

Icarus

LYRICS:

Spring’s around the corner 
And she’s calling my name 
She’s drinking in the sunlight 
I’ll just stick to the shade 
Reflection in the water needs somebody to blame
Pollen on my fingers 
And I’m itching my nose 
Another cycle stuffs me up 
With something nobody knows 
But everybody ‘round me is allergic to home

A history of violence
Too big for my body
I’ll carry the weight like Atlas did 
A legacy of silence 
I will not go quietly
I’ll ferry across the river Styx 
Take the soul of my dead life 
Make Persephone my wife
So something could grow down here with this 
History of violence 
Too big for my body

Spring’s across the country 
But she’s calling my name 
She says “Are you in it for love, 
Or are you here for the fame?” 
“Don’t take too long to answer
Imma need one today” 
Sunburn from the moonlight
And it’s stinging my soul 
The constellations sing their stories out like nobody knows
Maybe if I join them, I’ll forget all my woes

A history of violence
Too big for my body
I’ll carry the weight like Atlas did 
A legacy of silence 
I will not go quietly, 
I’ll ferry across the river Styx 
Take the soul of my dead life 
Make Persephone my wife
So something could grow down here with this 
History of violence 
Too big for my body

Someone took my lemonade 
And spiked it with a little shame 
That I haven’t grown up at all 
Little talks and bigger games 
There’s nothing wrong, I wanna play 
But I can’t seem to catch my fall 
And I’ll save another bite for my last plate
So when I’m passing over
I can savor the taste of something I made
Something I made
And it won’t taste like

A history of violence
Too big for my body
I’ll carry the weight like Atlas did 
A legacy of silence 
I will not go quietly
 
A history of violence
Too big for my body
I’ll carry the weight like Atlas did 
A legacy of silence 
I will not go quietly
I’ll ferry across the river Styx 
Take the soul of my dead life 
Make Persephone my wife
So something could grow down here with this 
History of violence 
That doesn’t define me
History of violence 
That doesn’t define me
A history of violence

History Of Violence

Lyrics:
I’ve only started to whiten my teeth
Not too late to start, age twenty three
‘Cuz my smile was something that nobody ‘round me believes
Merlot and whiskey, amber and red
Well, not respectively, but in my head 
I drank them together with Camembert and sourdough bread

But I thought egg white in a cocktail, it sounded gross
But it doesn’t taste funky, it just softens the blow
An alcoholic foam
For an agnostic soul

I’ve only started to clean out my closet
Not too late to start, age twenty seven
With monochromatic emotions and shoes that don’t fit 
But the colors don’t match if you look hard enough 
But I’ll say they’re the same, with no room for discussion
But some I will wash with the brights, and some with my bluff

And I found the wool lining on an old-timey business coat 
Does get a little itchy, but I am not cold 
Or maybe it’s the alcohol keeping me warm 

Lies continue to stain my life
I fully disdain my mind
Lies continue to stain my life
I fully disdain my mind

I find the fluoride in my toothpaste doesn’t stick out
I’m not mint condition, but I’m tasting it now I’m filling my shirts and the muscle is sound
I’m giving myself a reason to be loud
A reason to be proud
I’m starting to feel better now 
I believe I can be better now

Lyrics:
I wanted to be like you so bad 
But I spent all my anger like a child with cash 
Ashes in bottles, and wine in the urn 
You weren’t someone to follow, you were someone to burn 
I’ve been scraping by on reasons to laugh 
And the bank just called me, another overdraft
Action figures and my own opinions, I spent it all on that
But I earned it all, no need for paying you back
‘Cuz I did it on my own this time

I wanted to be like you so bad
You think I spend my energy on making you mad
Living the life you really wanted me to have
Just so you could say that you’re the reason for that
No, bet I did it on my own this time

Embarrassing myself to friends when I was younger
‘Cuz I took your fucking advice 
So trust your tongue if you think you’re tasting poison
Baby that’s my fucking advice

Child With Cash

Lyrics:

You thought nothing and everything of me
I dream of the softness of your skin between my teeth
You only came with questions and kindness
Oh I guess I’m learning now what it means to bleed
I’m learning now what it means to bleed

If you’re a witch for loving me 
Then call me an addict 
Because I can’t get enough of your science and magic
And all the shit they say isn’t true 
I’d burn Walachia for you
I’d burn Walachia for you

You brought fire and effervescently 
I fed on your body in desperate need of heat
You sought me out through cold fronts and blindness
Oh I guess I’m learning now what it means to breathe 
I’m learning now what it means to breathe 

If you’re a witch for loving me 
Then call me an addict 
Because I can’t get enough of your science and magic
And all the shit they say isn’t true 
I’d burn Walachia for you
If you’re a witch for loving me 
Then call me an acolyte 
Because I will bow to you 
And balance your dark and light 
But if I even see a bruise
I’ll burn Walachia for you 
I’ll burn Walachia for you

They called you a witch for loving me
They called me dramatic 
Because who could love a monster
It’s pomp and theatrics
But they wished they had everything I do
I burned Walachia for you
I burned Walachia for you

Wallachia

LYRICS:

I credit this one to Frankie
My little luck is a lady
I have been counting my pennies just for safety, baby
Now all my wishing has paid off
I found a woman who's made of the purest shit on earth
I can’t believe it

You’re my slice of paradise that treats me nicer than the sunshine
You make me a rich man (rich man)
There’s happiness to buy, but I’ve got heaven right by my side

It’s just the simple joys of sitting in fire escapes
Drinking the days away
With just a little champagne and you
Kissing away our names
Counting the stars till late 
I wanna wake up every day to you
Say
I tell all my friends I’ll send them a postcard from wherever I end up
'Cuz you make me feel like I’m dreaming of paradise 
Here I come
You’re my little Elysium
You’re my little Elysium 

Dance in the kitchen to JT
Baby, I can’t stop the feeling
That loving you is so easy
Don’t you tease me, baby
Where is this love gonna take us
It might get ough, it won’t break us
‘Cuz diamonds we find in the rough are much more precious 

You’re my slice of paradise that treats me nicer than the sunshine
You make me a rich man (rich man)
There’s happiness to buy but I’ve got heaven right by my side

It’s just the simple joys of sitting in fire escapes
Drinking the days away
With just a little champagne and you
Kissing away our names
Counting the stars till late 
I wanna wake up every day to you
Say
I tell all my friends I’ll send them a postcard from wherever I end up
'Cuz you make me feel like I’m dreaming of paradise 
Here I come
You’re my little Elysium
You’re my little Elysium 

You’re my slice of paradise that treats me nicer than the sunshine
I’ve got heaven on my side when I hold you, my angel, so tight

It’s just the simple joys of sitting in fire escapes
Drinking the days away
With just a little champagne and you
Kissing away our names
Counting the stars till late 
I wanna wake up every day to you
Say
I tell all my friends I’ll send them a postcard from wherever I end up
'Cuz you make me feel like I’m dreaming of paradise 
Here I come
You’re my little Elysium
You’re my little Elysium 

Slice of paradise that treats me nicer than the sunshine
You make me a rich man
There’s happiness to buy, but I got heaven right by my side
I tell all my friends I’ll send them a postcard from wherever I end up
'Cuz you make me feel like I’m dreaming of paradise 
Here I come
You’re my little Elysium
You’re my little Elysium
