Sometimes I wanna go home
What if you had a good time?
Sometimes I feel a bit anxious
What if you are?
Sometimes I want a new body
What if you weren’t your body?
Sometimes I think you can hear me
Whoever you are

chrysalis

I suck on the flower like I’m Bradley
I float on the water like I’m baptized
New wings on my body like an F14
No I don’t play with the vampires in the night sky
I fly down south when I miss sunshine
Don’t bite on my ass, you are such a horsefly
Suck blood till you die
You’re a parasite
I hope you like it on that hill, you look good in a hive
I just stepped out the chrysalis
Give me something to put on
‘Cause I know what I, know what I want
Is this a Sisyphean dream I can’t wake up from?
I don’t know what I, know what I want
Let me go
You’re an eight-legged freak and I don’t wanna be your lunch
Goodbye and good luck, please try another bug
No I don’t give a fuck what gets stuck in your web
Y’all thought I would be dead
That’s a pupa, not an exoskeleton you knucklehead
No I can’t hear what you said, ‘cause the air’s so loud
No I don’t care what you think
I won’t come down
I don’t know where to go
I’m just following the moonlight
All the way to the poles
Did you see me in a new light?
It looks like you saw a ghost
Say my name in the mirror
One and two and three times
I am not a caterpillar
I just stepped out the chrysalis
Give me something to put on
‘Cause I know what I, know what I want
Is this a Sisyphean dream I can’t wake up from?
I don’t know what I, know what I want
I just stepped out the chrysalis
Give me something to put on
‘Cause I know what I, know what I want

I just crawled out of my cave to say hello
‘Cause there’s something to you
Did you fall from outer space? I have to know
‘Cause you feel familiar
And I wonder what you see in my toothy smile and bloodshot eyes
I’m not sure but I’m not asking if you’re not wondering why
‘Cause it’s one two step out my house and they’re running from me
Got your neck in my mouth and they’re gunning for me
So what
Maybe I’m a monster, I’m not sure
But you never mind
Three, four steps out my house and they’re coming for me
I got a hundred tentacles and the same amount of bullet holes in my body
Call the pentagon, 9-1-1, is anyone gonna stop her?
You just created a monster, there’s no going back anymore
‘Cause it’s one two step out my house and they’re running from me
Got your neck in my mouth and they’re gunning for me
So what
Maybe I’m a monster, I’m not sure
But you never mind
Three, four steps out my house and they’re coming for me

I wish I didn’t have to tell you
Now I’m like where’ve you been?
I think I wanna be your girlfriend
You don’t have to save me
You could say anything, tell me everything
I wanna be your girlfriend
Can we play dress up? I want you to wear me
We can abscond with each other
I’m reading Homestuck while you fight Artorias
Will you be my Estus?
And I’ll be your cornflower
You can protect me from the bad dreams
In the front seat, taste the sunshine when you kiss me
I didn’t wanna fall down
What was that about? That was someone else
Yeah you put another song in my head and it’s so loud
I’m not turning it down
I’m feeling you right now
I wish I didn’t have to tell you
Now I’m like where’ve you been?
I think I wanna be your girlfriend
You don’t have to save me
You could say anything, tell me everything
I wanna be your girlfriend
I wish I didn’t have to tell you
Now I’m like where’ve you been?
I think I wanna be your girlfriend
You don’t have to save me
You could say anything, tell me everything
I wanna be your girlfriend
Trust fall
There’s a crash pad down below
Just fall
I wanna be your girlfriend

It’s funny how we said that we were gonna go to sleep
Instead of staying up all night talking about silly things
And not so silly things, ‘cause now the bags under my eyes are at capacity
That’s okay, because you’re here with me
You smell nice and you’re awesome
I just wanna taste all of that sugar at the bottom of your cup you runneth over
Is this feeling in my chest like caffeination or no longer being depressed
‘Cause when you say something I just wanna hear it over and over
I think we’ve been here too long
I just wanna sing your favorite song
And sleep through the dawn
I think we’ve been here too long
I think we’ve been here too long
Baby we’ve been here too long
Just had a thought, it was here now it’s gone
It left through the door
Why don’t we sleep through the dawn?
Just for a little bit longer
I hear the birds outside
It’s only 6:45, why don’t we just stay right here
And waste some time
We’ll let it pass us by
Don’t worry, I’ll be here anytime you wanna spend the night
We’ll waste some time
[Gotta hit up Dende for his lyrics but insert unfathomable amounts of sauce here]
I hear the birds outside
It’s only 6:45, why don’t we just stay right here
And waste some time
We’ll let it pass us by
Don’t worry, I’ll be here anytime you wanna spend the night
We’ll waste some time
I hear the birds outside
It’s only 6:45, why don’t we just stay right here
And waste some time
We’ll let it pass us by
Don’t worry, I’ll be here anytime you wanna spend the night
We’ll waste some time

I’d like to see between the vines
I’d love to know
She’d like to be a tree sometime
That’s all she wrote
Now what?
Is it easier to know what?
And you know what?
She was better off with no one
Okay, I didn’t hear that but I appreciate it
Try your best to put your right hand between your shoulder blades
It’s kind of like being objective about the things you say
I’ll hold back everything until it festers and they say they’ve gotta amputate it
Now what?
Is it easier to know what?
And you know what?
She was better off with no one
Now what?
You love the bees until they sting
Because they die
Tell me what you don’t want
Hope you don’t shape shift when I take my clothes off
Hide out in a makeshift mud hut
I couldn’t tell you why
Why?
Now what?
Well fucking now what?
Now what?
Is it easier to know what?
And you know what?
She was better off with no one
Now what?

I don’t know what’s going on
Maybe that’s okay and it’s just for awhile
That’s how it goes
I didn’t listen, can you say that again one more time?
There’s something different in your voice but I cannot tell what
You don’t sound the same
No you don’t sound the same
So what if we can’t work it out?
I didn’t mean to wear you down
I’m sorry that I love you always sounds the same
I’m sorry that I love you always sounds the same
Feels like a centipede under my skin
Makes me wanna burn down everything
I’m sorry that I love you always sounds the same
I’m sorry that I love you always sounds the same
Memories of the green grass side
Have a little bit of sunshine
I cannot fathom any reason why I wouldn’t feel the same about it
Darling, don't you hate to cry?
I keep telling you I don’t know why
You keep telling me that you don’t mind
And I don’t know why
Are you at the end of your rope because if so you should tie a knot I’m afraid
Uh, tell me a joke you made up on the spot or an impression of a train
Just wait for me to hang up the phone
It’s okay if you wanna be alone
So what if we can’t work it out?
I didn’t mean to wear you down
I’m sorry that I love you always sounds the same
I’m sorry that I love you always sounds the same
Feels like a centipede under my skin
Makes me wanna burn down everything
I’m sorry that I love you always sounds the same
I’m sorry that I love you always sounds the same

There’s no way an angel could fit through a door with those wings
You’re coming over on Monday to pick up your things
You drew a hadrosaur for me, I hope she can stay
There’s still a bump in the curb when you back out the gate
Will you always be on my mind?
Put in the tape and rewind
To follow you into the tide
Underwater
How you swim, I know that you’ll always be on my mind
Flowers would grow where you shine
Now it’s always raining inside
Hope that I’m not on your mind
How you’ve been on mine
That was dramatic, but you haven’t seen anything
If you were a daffodil, I’d scour hell for the spring
Hell doesn’t have any seasons but I’d take the gamble if you’d be a meadow with me right now
But you’re not around
It’s over now
You’ll always be on my mind
Put in the tape and rewind
To follow you into the tide
Underwater
How you swim, I know that you’ll always be on my mind
Flowers would grow where you shine
Now it’s always raining inside
Hope that I’m not on your mind
How you’ve been on mine

I wanna live in New York
I wanna ride in a Porsche
I wanna forget about you when I think about you
‘Cause I don’t wanna cry anymore
Yeah I wanna sit on the porch
And hear you walk through the door
I wanna forget about you when I think about you
‘Cause I can’t take it anymore
When you pray you face the water
Friendly conversation
Just you and mother nature
‘Cause it ease your mind
When you pray you face the water
Half of god’s creation
But you won’t turn to face the rest of humankind
That’s right
Look at me
Tell me what you wanna see faster
Long black fur coat like a bastard, and I don’t even own it
That’s a real naughty word, you should back up
I was pissing on the floor, now I’m back up
I can’t hear you, shut the fuck up
Big dick for a girl, you better buck up
I wanna lay in your room
I want a coupe
I want a ferme le bouche
Wanna get high, get zoot
I want a boo
I want a Canada Goose
Colder
I want the loot
I want you telling the truth
I want you wanting me how I been wanting you boo
But it’s gone
Poof
I wanna live in New York
I wanna ride in a Porsche
I wanna forget about you when I think about you
‘Cause I don’t wanna cry anymore
Yeah I wanna sit on the porch
And hear you walk through the door
I wanna forget about you when I think about you
‘Cause I can’t take it anymore

I thought that I could handle it
There’s so much empty space here in my bed
If you think that you could manage it, send me another picture of a thunderhead
Instead of understanding it
Reach out and touch my back so that I know you’re there
‘Cause I’m not gonna wait for you
I swear I’m not gonna wait for you
[I needa sit down and transcribe voicemail which will take a sec but imagine cute girl talking ab her chainsaw not working and then I answer the phone and she goes “oh?” and then Jacob Blieu says “music”]
