Quills 04:18
(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

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 03:12
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

Showgirl 04:08
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
