My little friend
On cloudy days like these
I close my eyes and remember when
You walked across my piano keys
I don't know why
I never did compare
Your gray coat and the somber sky
Now it feels like you're everywhere

Where did the years go?
I can't believe how they flew
I struggle to remember
When you were tiny and new
Did I do everything?
Did I do right by you?
I'll plant a lime tree
Where I will bury you
And when it blossoms
I'll think about the time we had
And I'll wonder
Did you love me too?

My little friend
You've been the constant
While these ever-changing winds
Took me where I did not expect
Now go to sleep
Sink into my lap
Where you go I can't follow yet
I'll stroke your fur 'til you breathe your last

Where did the years go?
I can't believe how they flew
I struggle to remember
When you were tiny and new
Did I do everything?
Did I do right by you?
I'll plant a lime tree
Where I will bury you
And when it blossoms
I'll think about the time we had
And I'll wonder
Did you love me too?

When I found you
I did not expect to live so many lives with you
And now we're out of time

Where did the years go?
I can't believe how they flew
I struggle to remember
When you were tiny and new
Did I do everything?
Did I do right by you?
I'll plant a lime tree
Where I will bury you
And when it blossoms
I'll think about the time we had
And I'll wonder
Did you love me too?

My Little Friend

The moment that you smiled at me, oh I knew I belonged to you
Tonight we're setting sail together, I can tell you feel it too
I never thought I'd meet someone who'd ever make me feel like this
I could stay right here forever hoping for one tender kiss

Oh, I apologize
With the moonlight in your hair and stars in your eyes
I’m sorry, I don't mean to stare
You've got me hypnotized
You've got me hypnotized

That night was many years ago—the clock-tick, dogged, chases youth
Oh, beauty, it might evanesce, but in its place we'll find our truth
So many plans we had to break, so many things we'll never get
But while you still lie next to me, there's nothing for me to regret

Oh, I apologize
With the moonlight in your hair and stars in your eyes
I’m sorry, I don't mean to stare
You've got me hypnotized
You've got me hypnotized

If you could see the way I see you
You would know how much I need you

Oh, I apologize
With the moonlight in your hair and stars in your eyes
I’m sorry, I don't mean to stare
You've got me hypnotized
You've got me hypnotized
You've got me hypnotized

Hypnotized

We Belong

I was a tender boy
I was confused
I didn't know the difference
Between being loved and being used
I thought I was safe
Walking home from school with you
You were just a little girl
A little taller, but still

You crushed me up against a fence
And put your mouth over mine
I wasn't ready for it
No, no, no, you shoved me across a line
And I fell on the other side
Of my first kiss
With the taste of blood and strawberry ChapStick

On my lips
My first kiss

I walked home in a daze
Into my room and locked the door
I felt a twitch, I moved an inch
But I didn't know what it was for
I felt like I'd beat up
I was afraid to go outside
You were just a little girl
A little taller, but still

You crushed me up against a fence
And put your mouth over mine
I wasn't ready for it
No, no, no, you shoved me across a line
And I fell on the other side
Of my first kiss
With the taste of blood and strawberry ChapStick

On my lips
My first kiss

My first kiss
I could not resist
My first kiss
Every boy's wish
My first kiss
My first kiss

The Law of Gravity

My First Kiss

"We deserve a safe future. And we demand a safe future."

Sea levels are on the rise
Tiny hands tweet deceit and lies
Youth rebellion is mobilized

Now I would do
Anything for Greta, Greta
Even though I never met her, met her
I gotta make the world better, better
I have to try
Anything for Greta, Greta
Even though I never met her, met her
I gotta leave the world better, better
Before I die

Science warned us for fifty years
Can't live outside the biosphere
Tipping points are already here

Now I would do
Anything for Greta, Greta
Even though I never met her, met her
I gotta make the world better, better
I have to try
Anything for Greta, Greta
Even though I never met her, met her
I gotta leave the world better, better
Before I die

"Do you think they hear us? We will make them hear us!"

Now I would do
Anything for Greta, Greta
Even though I never met her, met her
I gotta make the world better, better
I have to try
Anything for Greta, Greta
Even though I never met her, met her
I gotta leave the world better, better
Before I die

"And if you belong to that small group of people who feel threatened by us, then we have some very bad news for you, because this is only the beginning!"

Greta

You had me by a puppet string
Another jerk in your big show
You never met anybody you couldn't put to egoistic use
Oh, it never fails, they always end up dizzy, strung out from the same abuse

There's something wrong with you
There's something wrong with you

You think you will find happiness
By ripping it from someone else
It won't be a long time until everybody you spit out is replaced
And you won't have anybody left to swallow up and fill that empty space

Your saccharine smile is a cruel trick
So narcissistic, you cannot co-exist
You're caustic, salt in a slit wrist
You have cured me of my incipience

There's something wrong with you
There's something wrong with you
There's something wrong with you
There's something wrong with you

There's Something Wrong with You

How long, how long
Will you insist that you are wrong for me
And me for you
I know, I know
We're gonna happen anyway
No matter what we do

​It's the law of gravity
You'll be falling into me
It's the law of gravity
The law of gravity

You say the stars
Will never line up close enough
For this wish to come true
I disagree
If you and I aren't meant to be
Then why'd I fall for you?

It's the law of gravity
You'll be falling into me
It's the law of gravity
The law of gravity

Not believing in love is the same as not believing in gravity
You can try, but you will fall

​It's the law of gravity
You'll be falling into me
It's the law of gravity
The law of gravity

Born too late for vinyl, too early for Mars radio.
