Quills

(Okay, are we ready? 1, 2, 3, uh)
I don't want to know you
I don't wanna be your friend
'Cause girl it's hard out here
You gotta look out for yourself
So take the hint, baby
Let me drown in my misery
Don't throw me the life ring
I've gotten used to treading water
Open up, get shut back
Get sincere, get laughed at
Try to reach out, that's a no-no
'Cause baby I don't owe no one
'Cause I don't feel safe when the walls come down
I wanna hide my heart where it'll never be found
I don't like the way that I look through your eyes
'Cause I know you can see through all of my lies
強がりばっかり言っちゃって
一人ではなんとかなるって
この調子で続いてたら
気づいたら誰もかもが
離れてゆくのさ
Crabs in a bucket
Every crustacean for himself
Lone wolf wounded
Biting at the hand that heals
Don't get too close baby
'Cause these quills were made for hurting
and they're sharper everyday
Open up, get shut back
Get sincere, get laughed at
Try to reach out, that's a no no
'Cause honey I won't ever ever owe no one
'Cause I don't feel safe when the walls come down
I wanna hide my heart where it'll never be found
I don't like the way that I look through your eyes
'Cause I know you can see through all of my lies
強がりばっかり言っちゃって
一人ではなんとかなるって
この調子で続いてたら
気づいたら誰もかもが
離れてゆくのさ
'Cause I don't feel safe when the walls come down
I wanna hide my heart where it'll never be found
I don't like the way that I look through your eyes
'Cause I know you can see through all of my lies
強がりばっかり言っちゃって
一人ではなんとかなるって
この調子で続いてたら
気づいたら誰もかもが
Safe when the walls come down
I wanna hide my heart where it'll never be found
I don't like the way that I look through your eyes
'Cause I know you can see through all of my lies
強がりばっかり言っちゃって
一人ではなんとかなるって
この調子で続いてたら
気づいたら誰もかもが

常夏 (Summer Forever)
03:57
|

Did you hear about the late great music man?
Died at 27 but now they can make him sing again
Don't it take you back to when we were kids?
Like you never had to say goodbye to him
Deep Dreams of half-imagined lands
Blue skies, pretty girls and warm sands
Grasping at the sunshine with six-fingered hands
Like you've been there before but no one ever has
But as the music lazily drifts in my ears
Eyes flutter open, I feel kinda weird
How long have I been laying here?
Couple hours, or a week, or a year?
I don't know
Oh, no, no, no, I don't know!
Oh no, no, no, no
常夏 baby 終わらないわ
You'll be here forever, you'll never wanna leave
Nothing ever changes, so no need to be afraid
Just turn your brain off and be free for me
Twenty years or eighty, it don't matter anymore
Never have to grow up, we won't ask a thing of you
I don't wanna watch another star burn out
So I'll never let it get dark out
Long-dead ghosts on the silver screen
Appearin' in scenes that they've never seen
Playlists full of artists that don't exist
A robot is my boss's therapist
"It sounds like you had a bad day
I'm sorry they couldn't see it your way
They just couldn't handle you at maximum slay
The union had it coming anyway"
常夏 baby 終わらないわ
You'll be here forever, you'll never wanna leave
Nothing ever changes, so no need to be afraid
Just turn your brain off and be free for me
Twenty years or eighty, it don't matter anymore
Never have to grow up, we won't ask a thing of you
I don't wanna watch another star burn out
So I'll never let it get dark out
Take a photograph, get that インスタ映え
then I post it up with a caption like
"This is a call for help, don't know how long it's been
but I can't wake up from this dream I'm in
If anybody can help please reply to this
'Cause I'm trapped in a never-ending summer abyss"
1 reply: "what prompt did u use for this"
God, I can't take no more of this!
常夏 baby, I want out of here!
Permanence is prison, beauty in the transient
Every star has gotta burn out some day
So baby burn bright with me, with me
I need something different, tell me how you really feel
Tell me all your stories, sing me all your melodies
Give me something I don't even understand
'Cause life ain't worth living when everything makes sense

Time Out
03:56
|

Can I get a time out? My mind don't work so well a hundred miles an hour
Give me like an hour and a dictionary and I'll try to get back to you
But I can't guarantee that what I say will mean a thing to anyone but me
If I ain't making sense then by all means feel free to ignore me
I hate it when I disappoint my friends 'cause I find all the wrong words to say
I hate it when my mouth moves faster than the neurons firing in my brain
Overheating, overthinking, overcompensating, now you're over me
'Cause it ain't cute, it's irritating
Scatterbrain, oh here we go again
Can I get a time out? My mind don't work so well a hundred miles an hour
Bear with me I'm tryin' girl, I've got the words but I can't seem to put 'em in a line
So I can't guarantee that what I say will mean a thing to anyone but me
If I'm just talking shit then by all means feel free to ignore me
I hate it when I pick a stupid fight 'bout stupid shit, regret it all night
I hate it when I run my stupid mouth 'bout something that I shouldn't care about
I'm double checking triple checking one more time
Quadruple check and now you're checked out
I'm sorry for the wall of text and in advance for when it happens next

You Said

You said that you never really cared
That you just liked to play pretend
I felt safe with you
Ran away with you
But now I never wanna show my face again
Not after the things you said
Wish I could leave you in the rearview
明日に向かって走る
足を引っ張ってる
引っかかってる
「今度こそ違うのかもね」
全然進まなくて
君がいなくてあんなに辛かった
今思うとなんだかアホらしい
勝手な片思いだと言わせないよ
君もなかなかな一芝居を

Baby
I don't know what you want me to be
Anything that you want, tell me
I'm putty in your hands, honey
Tell me I'm enough, baby
I could be what you want me to be
If only you would look at me
Just tell me what's wrong with me
Is something wrong with me? Oh baby
Do you think I'm pretty?
Do you think I look better on my knees?
How's the view from the top? Oh honey
Oh, girl, is it true?
Should I make up real nice for you?
Should I hide the scars around you?
Can't let the real me seep through
君の前でやらかして怒られるたびに
君のその目で見られるのが一番嬉しい
Baby
I don't know what you want me to be
Anything that you want, tell me
I'm putty in your hands, honey
Tell me I'm enough, baby
I could be what you want me to be
If only you would look at me
Just tell me what's wrong with me
Is something wrong with me? Oh baby
Do I belong in here?
Odd one out everywhere?
Black sheep or ugly duckling, same thing
And I know 虫が良すぎるだろう
But I just want you to know...
Well, I just want you to know me
Baby
I don't know what you want me to be
Anything that you want, tell me
I'm putty in your hands, honey
Tell me I'm enough, baby
I could be what you want me to be
If only you would look at me
Just tell me what's wrong with me
Is something wrong with me? Oh baby
Oh no, don't come too close
Too close to me, my baby
Baby
I don't know what you want me to be
Anything that you want, tell me
I'm putty in your hands, honey
Tell me I'm enough, baby
I could be what you want me to be
If only you would look at me
Just tell me what's wrong with me
Is something wrong with me? Oh baby

Pick up all of my little pieces
Paint over all of my little defects
I know that I'm just one of the rejects
But you could fix me up and put me up on display
Tie a little bow for my hairdo
Knit me something for me to wear too
I know I've got a couple of screws loose
But you could fix me up and put me up on display
Pick up all of my little pieces
Paint over all of my little defects
I know that I'm just one of the rejects
But you could fix me up and put me up on display
Tie a little bow for my hairdo
Knit me something for me to wear too
I know I've got a couple of screws loose
But you could fix me up and put me up on display
I know I could be more than this body
Won't somebody just take pity on me
Free me from the curse that's upon me
And fix me up and put me up on display

Let's do a magic trick, you put on the hat
Cut me open on stage and everybody will clap
Make me disappear, I'll vanish into the night
but didn't I look good in those tights?
(Don't look at me) I wanna be a star
(Don't look at me) Steal the people's hearts
(Don't look at me) Catch me on TV
(Don't look at me) All eyes on me
How much do I have to show to make you love me?
How far do I have to go to be the girl of your dreams?
If there's a step or a beat that'll make you see
Then I'll dance till I'm weak in the knees, oh baby
How much more can I give when the camera's on?
Spotlight in my eyes, I get the words all wrong
If there's a song I can sing that'll turn you on
Then I'll sing it till my voice is gone, oh girl
Ignore the ache in my heart and the tears in my eyes
If the eyeliner runs I'll just slap on a smile
I spill my soul out to you, you say TMI
Oh, baby baby tell me why, oh why
(Don't look at me) I could change my hair
(Don't look at me) if it'd make you care
(Don't look at me) I could change my voice
(Don't look at me) Lemme hear you make some noise
How much do I have to show to make you love me?
How far do I have to go to be the girl of your dreams?
If there's a step or a beat that'll make you see
Then I'll dance till I'm weak in the knees, oh baby
How much more can I give when the camera's on?
Spotlight in my eyes, I get the words all wrong
If there's a song I can sing that'll turn you on
Then I'll sing it till my voice is gone, oh girl
Throwing up butterflies backstage
I don't wanna go out there but it's far too late
Then you step in the room and take one look at my face
I need you to see me but god I hate to be seen
Tell me I'm beautiful without perceiving me
I wanna have it both ways but I know I can't
God, this shit is such a pain in the ass, I know
I wanna stand out in the crowd and cut through the noise
I wanna sing my heart out but I hate my voice
The most introverted extrovert in the world
Wallflower dressed like a showgirl

It won't always be that way
You'll be the one on that stage
You'll feel the wind on your face
You'll find the words to say
Pick up your guitar and play
Your own little melody
その日を目的にして
前へ進んで
Spent like a year and a half locked up in my own head
Stared at the mirror til I saw my eyes turn red
I just fix my makeup and try to bounce back
There's no time for wishing I could get the time back
葉も紅葉になって落ちてくる
もうすぐ秋風が吹いてくれる
その風に乗って彷徨えば
Trust the wind, you might like where you end up
It won't always be that way
You'll be the one on that stage
You'll feel the wind on your face
You'll find the words to say
Pick up your guitar and play
Your own little melody
その日を目的にして
前へ進んで
It's gonna be okay
If not now then one day
You won't have to be afraid
They'll hear your voice see your face
So sing your soliloquy
Your sweet little melody
Hang in there for me
I know you're gonna be great
前へ進んで

I won't let you go
How many times have I told you so?
凍りつくほど冷たい肌
Won't you hold me close
ほととぎす
鳴かぬなら待つ
穴の開くほど見つめる目には
恐怖が映る
Caged bird, keep the faith
Don't give them anything
No matter what happens I'll be right by your side
Cracks in my carapace
I won't let you go
How many times have I told you so?
目くらむほど美しい羽
Won't you hold me close
舞い踊れ
空を飛べ
囚われるばかりの鳳凰よ
羽伸ばせ
I won't let you go
How many times have I told you so?
燃え尽きるほどあったかい笑顔
Won't you hold me close
I won't let you go
I won't let you go
I won't let you go
I won't let you go
I won't let you go, baby no no
I won't let you go
I won't let you go, you know I'd never ever ever ever
I won't let you go
