lyrics:
[@daywxtch]
you stay in the backseat with your partners
don't know how to respond, this shits all new to me
pose with different faces like an actor
pretty as a bitch, but you're not her
thought it, journaled it, wrote it
in the shower, thought i knew you
rough draft, threw it
what the fuck is new to you?

is it bad that i still get scared with the lights out?
shrink and hide under my pillow until it's bright out
i escape to places that i've never been
sybau (bruh), badge up on my chest
i'm a veteran
better know that i keep it with me
dumb tricks that i keep up my sleeve
why does no one else say "please" but me?
put me behind
it's driving me insane, got no one else to blame
i stay the same, i stay the same

(gay sing moan)

i wish i could lay right next to you
you're not around and in all honesty that really sucks
look past, forget and feel numb
i wish i could be just like you
i'm on my own and in all honesty that really sucks
look past, forget, and feel numb

[@siahhenderson]
heard you wanna leave me in the past tense isnt what i want but i expected it
every shot you take it missed a veteran
lonesome hours in my skin

idk whats happenin brain got clipped
soft lips my coma screw it oh
ik my orders

yeah now you dont care bout what you say to me threw me to the side threw me to the fire she said baby can you prove to me
that im in the right
please dont keep it inside

why am i pleading
head screwed off
traumatic sequence man without a soul
fires burnin all i own

(VETERAN REFRAIN)

[@daywxtch]
i wish i could breathe life into you
i can't communicate, it really sucks
i people please and hope it sums to love
i wish i could meet in the middle with you
you don't respond and in all honesty that really sucks
i look past, forget, and feel numb!

YOU'RE NOT HER.

DIVE OFF.
IF YOU THINK WHAT I HOLD FOR YOU IS WRONG.
I'LL DRIVE OFF, YOU DON'T WANNA SEE ME ANYMORE.

patience, i love more than anyone
(i know that we don't talk)
ain't no erasing, you know more than anyone
(i know that we don't talk)
is it bad that i still get scared with the lights off?!
we're in the center and we don't talk!?
don't take initiative, so it's my fault

repeat repetition, but THERE'S NO DRAW!!!!

i wanna go to places i've never been
displaying wins on my chest like i'm a veteran
i'm saying i want to make them proud.

lyrics

can't stand you and all of them
don't trust you and your friends one bit
won't let my guard down im out of reach
love how you tried to get close to me

static surrounding your face
brushing off dirt trying to keep up my pace
talking towards me bitch i don't feel a thing
mixing shit harsh yea it's starting to sting
don't even got friends i only got me
repeating loops til my ears start to ring
sit in my room making shit it's my thing
dissociate can't tell what's real or fake

won't pick up the phone
don't got the time for it
don't need a whore
who couldn't care a bit
knocks at the door
couldn't be better man
seen you before
no i won't let them in

reach

lyrics:
yeah i been parked outside

spent all day at the salon
want every man to know

cuz she really know me
made her nails my favorite color
cuz she wears it like no other
she get pretty for me x2

bae call your friends and i'll hit the guys up
i bring the bottle we pop like a geyser
i'm tryna see you ride like godiva
you ridin pretty and i'll be the driver
spin around in the city lights
that shimmer back in your pretty eyes
before you i aint been alive
yeah only one thing can make my night
it's you
babe you're shining brighter than the moon
it's you

young money so sexy hard to breathe
she get pretty for me
cuz she really know me
made her nails my favorite color
cuz she wears it like no other
she get pretty for me x2
(baby drag me through your wildest fantasy)
she get pretty for me
cuz she knows what i mean
when i tell her
she got everything and better

PRETTY ft. swazy*

everything by me
out on all platforms

(intro)
I’ve made a fool of myself
And still I don’t notice anything else
Fly till the fuel all runs out
Then I’ll glide till I reach over the ground

(chorus)
I’ve been wasting mileage in
Places that you wouldn’t know
I’ve been bout a thousand things
Everything is breaking in the soul
Tell me how everything is
I guess I never got the way it goes
I don’t want anyone’s thanks
I just want you when I get home 

(verse)
Pass it over it’s not like I’m gonna die by this tonight 
When I’m sober I’ll try to feel better about my luck
Then I drag it too much yea
Now the words won’t get off my tongue
Gotta hold you as my crutch, gotta hold you as my-

(bridge)
I feel like I can not stay like this for long
I feel like i can not see straight I’m holding on 
Could you get me out (could you get me out)
Could you get me far and gone
Could you get me out (could you get me out)
Could you get me far out 

(chorus)
I’ve been wasting mileage in
Places that you wouldn’t know
I’ve been bout a thousand things
Everything is breaking in the soul
Tell me how everything is
I guess I never got the way it goes
I don’t want anyone’s thanks
I just want you when I get home

lyrics:
i've got albums of songs that i've made about you
it took so long to feel sane without you
i'm right back here again
sent, sit for hours, now im left on read
ruined my life just so you could pretend
that i don't exist, that we're not even friends
and i can't believe that i love you again
and i can't believe that i want you again

can't stop myself from looking at our texts
the ones you don't bother to send
ethan and avery think i don't make sense
for dealing with your shit instead
of finding someone that can give what i want
without me having to beg
i get that what you're going through is hard
but i should be part of the mend

and it should be easy for me to move on
but i can't keep myself in check
and i can't show myself respect
if it means that you're only there in my head
my shoes are wet, the sun is gone
the moon is cold again
the burns are back, the scars won't fade
i wish we just had stayed friends

a beautiful planet, my Mercury vanished
don't wanna depart you again
