Lyrics:
I kinda hope the billionaires
Will stay in space
And I hope that I will finish
My degree
I look so much like my father
It’s like he hit copy and paste
And I stole my mother’s
Personality

I’ve been reading romance of late
Hoping I can scrounge some faith
But all that I’ve found is I’m alone
I should’ve known
That I’m prone to feeling strange
Up and down and out of place
I just want one thing
To call my own
Call my own

My little brother is three inches 
Taller than me
And he just knocks
Whenever I sing too loud
I think high school might’ve been
A fever dream
I’m so much better
That it’s over now

I can feel my morals sink in
Dig their claws under my skin
Whenever I fall prey
To jealous doubts
I know all about
Being prone to feeling strange
Up and down and out of place
I just want one thing
To call my own
Call my own

I never claimed to be an old sold
My wisdom comes in turn
And I think I’ve overthought
Every lesson I’ve ever learned
I keep my chin up
And my head down
I hope karma comes around
And I hope that I’ve done good enough
To be happy with how things turn out

I’ve been reading romance of late
Hoping I can scrounge some faith
But all that I’ve found is I’m alone
I should’ve known
That I’m prone to feeling strange
Up and down and out of place
I just want one thing
To call my own
Call my own

call my own (demo)

Last night I dreamt that we were older Painting a living room white
You were dressed up for a funeral And trying to start a fight
I put flowers in the doorway
Hung up the photographs
Almost forgot that you’re a stranger And always hated wearing black
And I hate to bring it all back up again
I don’t believe you meant a word you said
I think that she was on your mind while you were on my neck And I think you might have ruined Radiohead
I think you might have ruined Radiohead
Back so soon to come and haunt me Drop your shoes and hang your coat Stay however long you want to
You will until you won’t
So I’m hiding in the bathroom Can’t imagine what I’d see
It’d be like looking in a mirror
How does it feel you’re just like me Don’t get mad
And I hate to bring it all back up again
I don’t believe you meant a word you said
I think that you like talking big and tucking into bed And I think you still like fucking with my head
And I think you might have ruined Radiohead

True + Honest

I should probably drink more water
I should probably fix my posture
And my two pills a night
Feel like too much and not enough
I'm just trying to be a good daughter
In Vermont I feel like I'm an imposter
My drawbridge is coming down
And this heatwave is burning me up

The right side of my bed
Feels better than the left
And I feel like the worst
If I'm not the best
I keep burning my own bridge
Whether I lose or win
I'll always wish
I had more to give

If only I wasn't such a flight risk
If only I could settle down and mean it
Is this emptiness what people call their twenties?
No I'm not afraid of bruising
But I'm a coward in the face of losing
"Fuck a quitter"
Says a wanna be winner
Who can't stop running

The right side of my head
Feels better than the left
And I should let this go
But I haven't yet
I keep burning my own bridge
Whether I lose or win
I'll always wish
I had more to give

Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh

More to Give

once again, this account is turning into a musical archive of sorts LOL i wrote this little ocean themed love song lullaby type thing last night...it is very cute and sad

lyrics:
on the lookout for a lover
he sets out on the tide
pulls the anchor out the bottom of the shore
the horizon sends its greetings
and he smiles in return
on the lookout for a lover
intent on sailing back with her

on the surface of the water
she catches just a glimpse
for a moment, he almost saw her
and her eyes nearly locked with his
never having seen another
one like him in all her years
on the surface of the water
she wished she could step on the pier

oh the misery, it was fated from the start
oh adversity, bound together just to break apart
oh how nice it would be if they could change so easily
but the siren and the sailor, they were never meant to be

no one else knows but the ocean
see how it billows close to dawn
he stepped in for just a moment 
into the depths she swam upon
he learned to breathe under the water
and taught her how to walk on the sand
but from the start their time was limited
after all, he lived on land

oh the misery, it was fated from the start
oh adversity, brought together just to come apart
oh, how lovely it would be if they could rewrite history
but the siren and the sailor, they were never meant to be
oh, the siren and the sailor, they were never meant to be

the siren & the sailor (voice memo)

this one is so special to meeeee!! hope you love it as much as i do <3

lyrics:

I kinda hope the billionaires will stay in space And I hope that I will finish my degree
I look so much like my father
It’s like he hit copy and paste
And I stole my mother’s personality

I’ve been reading romance of late Hoping I can scrounge some faith But all that I’ve found is I’m alone I should’ve known
That I’m prone to feeling strange Up and down and out of place
I just want one thing to call my own Call my own

My little brother is three inches taller than me And he just knocks whenever I sing too loud I think high school might’ve been
A fever dream
I’m so much better that it’s over now

I can feel my morals sink in
Dig their claws under my skin Whenever I fall prey to jealous doubts I know all about
Being prone to feeling strange
Up and down and out of place
I just want one thing to call my own Call my own

I never claimed to be an old soul
My wisdom comes in turn
And I think I’ve over thought
Every lesson I’ve ever learned
I keep my chin up and my head down
I hope karma comes around
And I hope that I’ve done good enough To be happy with how things turn out

I’ve been reading romance of late Hoping I can scrounge some faith But all that I’ve found is I’m alone I should’ve known
That I’m prone to feeling strange Up and down and out of place
I just want one thing to call my own
Call my own

Call My Own

Lyrics:
If I had the chance
To see the northern lights
I would book the next flight
And I’d buy
A jacket

If I had the chance
To see snow fall for the first time
I would stop and rewind
To re-find
The magic

But if there was ever a chance to tell you
That I think about you every single day
I don’t know if I could
Take that chance
Or take your hand
And say

You are on my mind
When I miss the snow
You show up when
I hear that song or I
Finally start watching that TV show
I don’t know why every time
That I think of home
I can picture you standing in the cold
But I
I’m scared
Cause I don’t know
If you and I are in the same boat

If I had the chance
If you asked out of the blue
How I really truly feel about you
I don’t have a clue how that would go

But if I had the chance
Would I really tell you?
Would I bare my soul and maybe end up crying in the bathroom?
Or would I ask you to kiss me slow?

Cause you are on my mind
When I miss the snow
You show up when
I hear that song or I
Finally start watching that TV show
I don’t know why every time
That I think of home
I can picture you standing in the cold
But I
I’m scared
Cause I don’t know
If you and I are in the same boat

Give Me A Minute

Same Boat

Lyrics:
—NOTHING—

I don’t wanna leave
So tell me why I’m going
I don’t wanna leave
But I’m gone
I don’t wanna leave
But I’m already running
And if you ask what’s wrong
“Nothing”

Oh I’m so sorry
I’m a fool
I’m so sorry
For what I’m about to do

Here’s your shirt I stole
Take back what you gave me to hold
I can wear my own coat when it’s cold
I don’t need yours
Cause I don’t think I can do this anymore

I’m not sorry
That I loved you til I couldn’t breathe
It was lovely
But I know that it’s not what I need
It was good
But it’s time for me to leave

—SAD N STUFF—
Something doesn’t feel right
Maybe it’s the time
Something doesn’t feel like it used to
And nothing really rhymes
Maybe it’s the changing of the seasons
Or maybe it’s a sign

Something doesn’t sit well
Maybe it’s the food
Something doesn’t fit, well I think I always knew
That it could be the way I don’t speak Spanish
Or it could be you

He feels good to come home to 
But not to stay
I’m afraid
That he feels good to hold on to
But it feels good to say
That I’d be okay
Without you, I’d feel the same

I’m alone, I’m alone, I’m alone
All at once
And I don’t know, I don’t know
How to get back what was
Is it something in the wind or the rain that makes me
Sad n stuff?
Or is it just you?

He feels good to come home to
But not to stay

Nothing/Sad N Stuff
