I simper in spades There's attack that I intake Do you just forget all the missteps that you make? Always late, planning delaying You're kind of a flake Well, alright. I let slip some slights But that's barely a bite of what I do. It's like you look right through And skip over all the good things I do for you Now tell me why don't you Give me what I want Yeah, I do in fact know That you think I should grow up Your modesty's too much Bad touch... Blow up Oh I never wear out my welcome Because I I I I don't tay thing twice I don't say things twice Like you do It's like I look right through And skip over all the good things you do for me too Now tell me why don't you Just take what you want when you want to You give me love But what I want more is someone to live for Someone to die for Wait, is something to live for something to die for? Give me a reason, something to fall for It's like you look right through And skip over all the good things I do for you Now don't let me need to be rescued Just give me what I want when I want you It's like I look right through And skip over all the good things you do for me too But don't you forget who you rescue Just give me what I want when I want you.

Note To Self 02:48
Stop saying you're over everyone And stop saying it's easy Your moods make a morsel of your fun Yeah, you're safe, but you're still sorry Stop thinking you're warm to anyone And stop taking it easy Your mouth makes a mockery Of some heartfelt thing you view bleakly Now, I'm drifting into doubt I'm never coming out You go from bitter, baseless pain To peace: sand in your fingers Stop letting confusion turn to rage Find the good kind that lingers Now, I'm drifting into doubt Purpose or without, I'm never coming out Oh If they make you choose, gun to your head Just say "hey, pull the trigger" You should go quiet as you search what's said For all the things unconsidered Stop shouting, you're deaf to your own sound Just like Beethoven's last bits Each friendship you somehow run aground Is a new lucid limit Now, I'm drifting into doubt With purpose or without I'm never coming out Oh.

Churchill 04:43
All life's fake lessons screw me 'Cause everything can't be fixed Like a minute long montage from a movie Over some cheesy synth-pop indie song All we take is the instant And disregard that the moment's truth belies So that Churchill named Winston Is halfway around the world with his pants in his eyes I know You're taking it so bad But I just never get it And when caught I say "So what..." "I lie..." I been caught in a lie In it's web I been wasting my northern time Cause I caught it alive My white whale is a wooden boy inside It's wooden inside My apology splatters Into some kind of overt funeral pyre 'Cause I mislead what matters 'Till you truly believe that I'm half on fire I been shot in the eye And while bleeding, been wasting my father's time 'Cause I don't even try To feel something while he just prays to the sky He prays to the sky

Way Too Soon 04:22
You say we can't do this when we're older Don't tell me that you're going sober Wait, don't tell me that we're going sober 'Cause I lied when I said I'd do anything for ya But that don't mean I don't adore ya Quit telling me I don't adore ya 'Cause you are more my world than anything You say it shouldn't be this hard to please me I never said it would be easy Did I ever say it would be easy? And I know, I won't go, you're a good man But the world is whatever it is And it doesn't matter what you've got planned But I know you, this is no preference This is a "fuck off if you can't get this" How like you, the subtle ruthless sea You're taking me out with the instant But soon all your hate will be distant And someday, way too soon You'll wake up, crack of noon And it's alright 'Cause I will swear to you That poison is no rescue And I'm alright No no no. You say you hate the cold of the clean way You know I'll be there with you each day Of course I'll be there with you each day And I know, it's one more weight to depress you But all of your burdens I take too To bear all your burdens it takes two 'Cause you are more my world than anything You say you feel like playing red rover Are you telling me you're coming over? Don't tell me that you're coming over 'Cause I lied when I told you I was sober Quit telling me that we are over Quit telling me that we're so over Yeah I knew it, this was no preference This was a "fuck off if you can't get this" How like you the subtle ruthless sea You've taken me out in a instant But soon all that hate will be distant And some night, way too soon You'll look up to see the moon and think "alright" I love him, yes I do But poison is his rescue But that's so much arrant god damn bullshit I am more than that.

Don't tell me I'm built for nothing But making jams in a jar That settle slowly as tar And don't sell me a spirit something I buy a paperback And give myself another smack Then pick up soe of my own slack I do lie on what I lack, ah My reach to you is overlarge I can preach to you but I have to charge I can get what's true As straight as a corkscrew That I use to drink up my own head And I can see clear ta The brand new era Of faceless heads on a web Y'know, I'm a bitter fellow Although, I lack any cause to be so. Callow, it's no easy to swallow High flow, but really I was going slow Don't tell me that I should go slow Don on me a brand new era Of faceless heads on a world wide web Speak up, I can barely hear ya I am a fucker, not a lover Don't wanna kiss under the covers In a sickly smother Like every amish other My reach to you is overlarge I can teach you, but I have to charge Y'know, I'm a bitter fellow Although, I lack any cause to be so. Callow, it's no easy to swallow High flow, but baby, I was going slow Don't tell me that I should go slow I can get what's true As straight as a corkscrew And I don't have the heart to look ahead But I can see clear ta The brand new era Of faceless heads on a world wide web
