You strut around like its only you that matters
You’re so prolific yeah
And dipped in golden batter
That’s a pretty shell to hide what you can really be
So fake it till you make it man
Alright, whatever
And you won’t look at me
Wearing your fancy clothes
Think you’re too cool for me?
Guess I’ll just go
You bring me down and it’s you in

Alright, whatever
And you won’t look at me
Wearing your fancy clothes
Think you’re too cool for me?
Guess I’ll just go
You bring me down and it’s you in the spotlight
All while you suck me dry
Hope it makes you feel alright
You bring everybody down then it’s you in the spotlight
All while you suck me dry
Whatever helps you helps you sleep at night
You flirt with my best friend?
Said it don’t mean a thing
But next time I’ll take note that you’re a lying piece of shit
Yeah I can tell that’s somethings wrong, I can see what’s underneath
You don’t care what you take

And you won’t look at me
wearing your fancy clothes
Think you’re too cool for me?

Bring the lights down and that’s you in the spotlight All while you suck me dry
Whatever makes you feel better
Yeah man, cool feathers!
Another year.
same shit as yesterday
Another resolution,
yet, I’m still exactly the same
Somethings got to give
but I’m giving in.
What’s the point of me trying,
if I’m never gonna win?
Summer sucks,
And you just, make me sick
Thought by now
I would know better than this
I swear to god
Nothing changes
I’m just turning pages a

What’s the point of me trying,
if I’m never gonna win?
Summer sucks,
And you just, make me sick
Thought by now
I would know better than this
I swear to god
Nothing changes
I’m just turning pages around the sun
Make the same mistakes
And pretend I’m just having fun
Another 365 of regrets
And things I never said
Guess it’s better off that way then
Maybe I’ll go out tonight
Or stay home instead
Probably the latter,
so I don’t wake up from a night I’ll want to forget
Don’t want to be myself today
Don’t want to think about what you’re gonna say
Don’t know who I want to be today
Don’t want to care about what you’re gonna say
I hate this conversation
I’m sick of small talk
I’m tired of being here
But I don’t know how to leave
I don’t want to break your heart
But I don’t know what to say
Doesn’t matter what I come up with
It’s gonna hurt you anyway
I want your attention
Affection, connection, every piece of you
You’re finished knowing now that you’re done,
I’m

Doesn’t matter what I come up with
It’s gonna hurt you anyway
I want your attention
Affection, connection, every piece of you
You’re finished knowing now that you’re done,
I’m just something to do
Add me to your list of:
Conquests, subjects,
things that aren’t special at all
Just another tally on your board
Well, so are you
Don’t try and make me jealous
I’m trying not to care
Don’t give me those eyes
Don’t touch my
Feelings, my face, don’t tickle my back
I swear I hate it when you hold me like that
Why are you wasting your time here if
You’re not keeping me around?
Oxytocin,
Give me your touch
Feed me your kisses
Its all that I need
Oxytocin,
Tell me I’m just what you want
Feed me your fake love
Then, leave just like we agreed.
I count steps, and I’m counting on you.
It’s all I can think about.
Surely I have better things to do,
But you’re all I can think about.
Shouldn’t have to leave,
You can use me as you please.
I just want you to hear me out.
You don’t know anything about me,
but I’m all you can think about?
Say it to my face then
Tell me how you
I count steps, and I’m counting on you.
It’s all I can think about.
Surely I have better things to do,
But you’re all I can think about.
Shouldn’t have to leave,
You can use me as you please.
I just want you to hear me out.
You don’t know anything about me,
but I’m all you can think about?
Say it to my face then
Tell me how you really feel
Like do you really mean it when you say that you like me?
Lets talk about us babe
What do you mean? Alright.
When you’re fucking her, are you thinking of me?
How was your weekend?
How was your day?
Said you thought a lot about me while you were away.
If you just leave me so confused,
Why bother with you?
It’s just something to stress about.
Come over to my place then.
Are you gonna stay tonight?
I have to leave early,
hope that’s alright.
Would you like some water?
I saved dinner for you,
I made vegan curry, but I have baked beans too.
Do you wanna watch a movie?
Have you got a t-shirt?
Wanna play you this new song that I just wrote.
Drinking soy mochas,
Smoking all your cigarettes.
It’s all I can think about.
Get that taste out of my mouth.
Seems it’s just another battle that I’m losing
Who the fuck do you think you’re fooling?
Guess it’s just an offer I should be refusing
Because you think I’m stupid
I think I’ll lose it
Can’t we just hash it out?
Why can’t we just hash it out?
Better off clearing it out.
Well, that’s something to think about.
Sixteen, evergreen
Self-conscious
Drama queen
Denial
Displacement
Everything in between
Rationalized sublimation
But I can’t seem to see
Why you don’t love me
I will apologise
But it won’t change a thing
Swore I was justified
I think that I’m just mean
I’m stained
I’m dirty
I’m trying to get clean
Sorry you’re left with a mark

Sorry you’re left with a mark made of me
It comes back around
I get what I deserve
You called It love
But all you seem do is hurt
Hand you all my kind
But it’s never enough
Your push comes to shove
You never apologise
So it can’t change a thing
Swear that you’re justified
I think that you’re just mean
I’m stained
You’re dirty
Are you trying to get clean?
You’re just sorry I left,
not for marking me.
Thought about it a thousand times,
but that doesn’t mean a thing
If I change who I am,
does your opinion of me?
Forethought -
I’m still learning.
I swear that I’m clean.
Sorry you’re left with a stain of me.
Walk me through it
Please elaborate
Talk it out
Set things straight
I’m going crazy trying to read minds
I’m getting bored of doing what is right all the time
Drama free
but I’m lonely
Already trapped inside this brain of me so
Who cares?
In hindsight
What’s the point?
Turn around
What’s the afterthought?

Already trapped inside this brain of me so

In hindsight

Turn around
What’s the afterthought?
But don’t drag me in
To your stupid game of three
Out stretch yourself
Then say that you need space to breathe
What you show and
What you say
Just don’t corroborate
Competition of ego to compensate
Over defensive
Sitting on the fence of;
What is needed,
What is depleted.
Blind to it,
that’s kind of clear to I.
So do what you want,
Or just let it go.
Not a shot of mine to call,
If I don’t want to be involved anymore.
I’m missing what would surely turn to shit.
I’ll move along,
Just get over it.
Hypocritical
Judgemental
Under the impression of some potential How dumb of me
Overstepping my boundaries
You’re unusual
I feel frustrated
But up I’m putting up
Thought I could take it
But it’s not enough
Just set the tone
And I’ll say that’s fine
Thought I could fake it
Yet I forget my lines
Caught me – I seep through the cracks
Finally – backtrack, don’t react
I see – what you mean
Reality
You’ll get what you need
Step back there I’m warning
I feel frustrated
But up I’m putting up
Thought I could take it
But it’s not enough
Just set the tone
And I’ll say that’s fine
Thought I could fake it
Yet I forget my lines
Caught me – I seep through the cracks
Finally – backtrack, don’t react
I see – what you mean
Reality
You’ll get what you need
Step back there I’m warning please
You’ll get what you need
Stop there if you want me please
Shifting the blame
I’ll sleep under the rug
I feel insane
I’m overrun
Know I can’t say it
I insist I’m fine
Thought I could take it
I’m such a liar
I’m hated
Decayed
and, it’s over complicated
Wasted time on it
All along
Admit it
You played it
I underestimated
Seems that I got it
All wrong
I strained
Regained
Took back what was left degraded
Obeyed
And repaid
It all
Got paid
And I wasted
All of it on getting faded
I fucked it
Dealt with it
All wrong
(BONUS OUTRO YEEHAW)
You want it
You take it
Get down on your knees and fake it
Its strange to place all the place all the blame
Its hard to contemplate it
You want it
You need it
Just you wait there for a minute
You say I’m always, all wrong
