i don't miss aramingo
or the 15 bus
i don't miss my sister's futon
or where i grew up
everyday i wake up
i survive
i don't miss new york
though, i miss alison
i miss the calm before the wake up call
just before coughing up the ocean
just before sarah said she liked me broken
fate grabbed my hair by the roots and tugged
i would pull his back if i could
fate grabbed my hair by the roots and tugged
i would pull his back if i could
it sucks to be soft
i want to be an igneous rock
i want, i want my temper to cool
i want, i want my temper to cool

oh, honey

innocent again?
perhaps not
i don't think so
no, we are not friends
you know why
pretend that you don't
oh, honey, i could ruin you
but i only miss your affection
there's still a shitty beach i gotta take you to
you could deflate my lungs and i still wouldn't hate you
i feel guilty for something beyond my control
you will get lost in the mountains
and i will just stay home

happy birthday im sorry

i liked it better when we weren't in competition with each other
we've been embittered by the brine
we grew distant over time
you live a different life
and i've lived nine
i'll love you my whole life
but i won't say happy birthday
i'm sorry
i don't know what i'd say to you
probably the truth
would you know what to say to me?
i no longer relate to you
you'd like me better now
back then i was a cowardly pretender
that's why i don't hold it against you
for moving like the rest do
i'll love you my whole life
but i won't say happy birthday
i'm sorry
i don't know what i'd say to you
probably the truth
would you know what to say to me?
i no longer relate to you

get embarrassed!
01:55

i wanna feel the way a blue nile song sounds
i wanna walk across the rooftops
i wanna write a love song for someone
for once
when i met you i thought we were onto something
but you were a lesson
put comfort and shame in a blender
it won't meld together
i said too much
got embarrassed
wouldn't recommend it
hated your guts in the morning
missy said to end it
i need a reframe
regeneration
and a bit of understanding
a cut cord between two candles
baby, that's a happy ending
i wanted you to see me
i wanted you to want to walk me home
i didn't make it easy, but i
don't have to tell you why i'm worth the time
so, baby, if you see me
pretend you didn't see me

the good part
01:14
|
|||
i don't know where the water goes
but i wanna flow with it
and i got so used to being no one
that ocean foam replaced my bones
how do you wait for the good part?
how do you keep faith in one man
who scares you?
my heart weighs less in the sea
(i don't mind dissolving)

"boys decide whether you're girly or not"
tactile distraction
pomelo pith peeled with precision
babe, it's not gonna
babe, it's not gonna happen
get away while you still can
protect yourself from the modern man
babe, he's not gonna
babe, he's not gonna get you
i kicked a fucking ball for four years
never scored a goal
and i tried to be academic
but it sucked out my soul
i'm coming into myself cause i have to
running home to the shelf where i kept you
to fill it up with my books and my seashells
coming into myself

lucy's scowling over her tangerine juice
oh, great, it's raining
now she cannot go skating
lucy looks at me with venom
then ignores me
she knows i know her secret
she hates me greatly cause i keep it
lucy, you kissed me
in the bathroom
seventh story
what does that mean?
lucy, i'd climb through any window to get to you
if the building's burning
baby, i'm coming through
lucy is a creature of habit
and well
i'm not part of the plan
i'm not part of the plan

missed connections

wherever you are
it's not where i am
so i'll have an attitude until i fall asleep again
whatever the weather
i hope you stay dry
i lean on the pillar wishing you would saunter by
did you like what i was wearing?
could you tell that i was high then?
i guess fuck your opinion
i am my own boyfriend
but it is so fun to feel so bad about someone
it is so fun to feel so bad about someone
it is so fun to feel so bad about someone
it is so fun

chin scratch
red and rashy
apply pressure
release
observe in mirror
am i too eager?
am i too fragile?
you pierce the fabric
i pull the needle
god bless
goddamn the northeast
where folks would rather die than say excuse me
where drivers try to kill you while you're crossing
punishment for walking out
well, lately i'm just sorry i let you touch me roughly
walked home and cried
how dare you change my life
without me

i belong on the surface
01:49
|

you weren't grinning
you were baring your teeth
you were preparing to eat me
just doing what dogs do
my skull in your jaw
you were happy to lay there
wag your tail and gnaw
how could i be mad at you?
it's a piss poor excuse
glad to be in the room
loathe it all because i don't recall what i saw in you
i write songs in my bed
and you don't listen to them
but you'd pretend to if you thought it meant i'd invite you in
don't come back to philadelphia
i'm livid now and i have a weapon
you're not clever
you're overconfident
and good as dead, friend
i have awakened
i learned a valuable lesson i won't forget
if the answer is no
surely you'll ignore it
to you i'm just a bone
but i'm a treasure chest
you tried to bury me
i belong on the surface

swimming song
01:32

i cracked open my jar of teeth
i said something kind of silly
i don't break rules
i just follow my own
no, sorry, sir
i can't hear you
i'm too busy having a breakthrough
coasting sideways
just to have a hard fall
i'm not a girl
i'm a pearl
mystic rock
tough outer shell
to the touch i am soft as water
and maybe you'll find me
on the beach
swimming
one day i will quit my job
and one day i will run away
and maybe
just maybe
maybe you'll find me
swimming
