dress couture
making me uptight
on the floor
baby you know i

can’t buy you,
i won’t try 
why can’t I?

lately i can’t stop my visions
can’t stop crying
can’t stop these tears from falling
i’m falling for you

and that’s just what we do
i just play it cool
and you don’t got a clue
baby i’m into you

i just keep on failing forward
falling down
pick myself up i dont know how 
you’ve been patient but i keep running out
i know it gets hard to keep chasing me down
cause i know that
even if my heart wasn’t so dead, 
these roses 
won’t take away the pain that inside of me
maybe i’m broke and no love is the golden key

first i gotta figure out what’s wrong with me
blind or in the dark and i can’t see
with a backpack like i’m on kids TV, 
need to backtrack, dora said repeat after me
ven aqui, breath in deep
todo va a estar bien baby 
you know i’m better with you

grow me a garden of things that can fly
parsley, sage, rosemary, and time
stay with me till the end of the line
i’ll be yours and you’ll be mine

ain’t nothing you can do
i’ll stay falling for you

Blackbear - Try me

blackbear - Bodybetter (Solo Version)

what would it take for you
to love me as i am?
staring at those eyes
i'm scared that you never can

it's pulling me, pulling me, pulling
pulling me, pulling me down
[pulling my hair out, 
it's crazy to think how,
how much you care,
how much you care]

it's killing me, killing me, killing
giving me what no one else can
[pulling my hair out, 
it's crazy to think how,
how much you care,
how much you care]

Fences

it's almost like i forgot
and i don't think of you often
cause i'm barely back home
and it's been so long
i feel like i've grown

but it's summers like these
with the california breeze
and it's bringing me back
to the days when i had
you wrapped up in me

and all these party lights
got me acting like a freak
and i really want to touch your body
even if you've got somebody

and i'm so scared to fight 
these feelings stuck in me
cause what if everything keeps hurting
when i find you slipping out of my reach?

[rec: it's almost like i forgot. and it's like, i'm in a different space or something. i don't really know. and i still think about you sometimes, but it's not overwhelming or anything like it was in high school. those were such strange times. do you think about me? probably not, but i still wonder. in any case, i hope you're doing well and i wish you best of luck. that's for real.]

the funny thing (prod. Ben Beal)

the way you make moves,
it’s like san francisco baby
i remember when the wind used to blow there
and tell me why i wear my heart on my sleeve

a little bitterness
you a bitter type,
but kinda perfect

can i show you up?
can i take it off?
somewhere far away, 
my love

baby that’s all i want,
all i need

cause what’s a life if you’re scared of living 
there’s uncertainty unless you’re giving
as it is, i write back just to let you see 
that i’m feeling a little lost, you’re the best of me

i just want to be sure
