Better Fool 02:01
Nothings gonna change Just cause you blew the candles out on your birthday cake I don’t think my friends like me I think I have ADHD I think I’ll set some boundaries And keep you far away from me You taught me there would be no one else for me And that's a lesson that I'm currently unlearning I am a fool right now I was a fool back then But I’m a better fool than I ever have been Gone our separate ways Until I bump into you and you tell me how much you've changed I'm not ready to let go But I can't keep holding out hope That when you're sad you’ll talk to me Instead of coming for my throat And it sure feels real to me now It’s as clear as it’s ever been I wish I could go back in time and show myself what I couldn’t see then

Drain 03:25
I wanna learn to be patient like you I never stop to take the rocks out of my shoes You see the sunny side of every situation I'm stuck in my imagination I’m a lost cause, I got a dark heart I like to stay sad cause it’s a lost art If you saw me lying dead in the street would you stop your car to take a picture of me? I’ll be your roadkill, promise to stay still We’re going downhill from here Hey, hey I’m learning how to drain All of this hate out from my heart and from my brain I’m learning not to pick up when you call me because the way I act with you is alarming And you don’t want my company or conversation I’m junk food, instant gratification I want true love, like in the movies Standing ovation at the ending I try my hardest just to look on the bright side But everyday I just can’t make up my mind Am I confident?Or a dumb bitch? So what fuck it who gives a shit!!!!!!!!! Hey, hey I’m learning how to drain All of this hate out from my heart and from my brain Hey, hey I just wanna feel okay I’m taking everything I know, I’m gonna throw it all away Hey give me a break, at least I got out of bed today Changed my clothes and tried to hydrate Did all the stupid shit my self help books say I won’t speak negativity because my words become reality But oh my god I fucking hate myself I hate you because you remind me of myself And I don't understand how anyone could be so fucking stupid!!!! >:( Fuck.

I think you’d like it in los angeles You could move in, my roommates would be fine with it We’ll paint the walls green, your favorite color And we’ll drink vodka slushies all summer I could dog sit while you’re on tour Send me postcards from every liquor store in every city Write on them that you miss me Kiss it with your favorite lipstick and spray it with perfume before you send it Maybe it’s just a stupid dream I know you’d never change your life to be with me 6 hours north in a city by the sea I want you here right now, I want you here with me You stopped sending pictures of your day Your view from the bus stop, your pretty face You said you’d call me when you get home I stayed up all night waiting by my phone If i were closer, would you remember the way I made you feel in september? You said it’s too cold in san francisco, but i keep you warm so you’ll take me where you go!! Let’s keep in touch, maybe one day we’ll fall in love I just wanna be touched, this distance is too much I think of you all day and it fucks me up!!!

Dumb 01:36
I know you don’t think that I’m cool, and it’s not like i need you to But when you walk into the room I’m trying to impress you And no I’m not a kid, but i still think about the stupid things i did Sewing patches on my jacket cause i thought that you would like it and you didn't!!! You said, "Nobody’s gonna care about the sad little songs you share And nobody's gonna know how your dumb little songs go" OH OH OH OH OH OH OOOHH WOAAAHHHH They said, "Nobody’s gonna care about the cute little songs you share And nobody's gonna know how your dumb little songs go"

You said of all your friends that you like me the best Made me stay up with you all night, fell asleep with your head on my chest at 9 am Is this how you treat all of your friends? Why won’t you hold me close when it’s cold outside? If you don’t have a conscience, that’s alright, I’ll lend you mine I said ā€œI’m not gonna fuck things up this timeā€ Woke up in your car, you were grinding your teeth, and there’s blood on my thighs I just wanna be alone without being lonely I don’t wanna be touched, but I want somebody to hold me I love your crooked teeth more than I love you Just cause you say to my face doesn’t mean that it’s true You and I can be friends at best if this is how you treat all of your friends I’ve got my friends, I’ve got my dog, I’ve got my bed I’ve been working all week and I’m gonna go out dancing this weekend And I don’t need you!!! Lie to myself and say that we are through This year has been weird and I’m just trying to stay alive I don’t really know you but yeah, you can come inside This year has been weird and I’m just trying to stay alive I don’t really like you but yeah, you can cum inside me I just wanna be alone without being lonely I said "don’t fucking touch me" but I want somebody to hold me I love your stupid laugh more than I love you Just cause you say to my face doesn’t mean that it’s true You and I can be friends at best if this is how you treat all of your friends

I’m 25, only getting older Lost all my friends when I got sober Lost the only man I loved when I got self esteem No one likes you when you’re in your mid 20s still chasing a teenage dream It’s okay if I’m blooming just a little bit late I used to be young and dumb, now I’m just dumb Hang around my old town like I’m sentimental scum So what, who cares!! Suck it up kid, life’s not fair!! Promise that I'll go nowhere Honesty?? Sincerity?? Oh my god you’re scaring me!! I think too much, act like I’m tough But cry when you touch me I just wanna be myself but I still don't know how I was raised by MTV so you know that I'm a fuck up now It’s okay to wish it were still yesterday It’s okay, promise I’ll grow up by my 26th birthday

Honeybear 02:16
You know it’s wrong to treat me like you do And I know it’s pointless, but I believed in you I kept the light on, I kept the bed warm You never came home, you said I’d been warned Bubblegum in your hair, you used to call me honeybear Sticky sweet, stuck on you, fixated on your every move I used to say, ā€œIt’s all okay, it’ll work out in the endā€ Now I’m not sure, it’s all a blur I used to be so self assured I can hear it in your voice when you’re lying through your teeth And I don’t feel like myself or the girl I wanna be Ignore the things you say, make myself small You'll watch me fade away until I’m nothing at all I used to be so self assured

Tell me, do you think I’m pretty?? When you fuck me why don't you kiss me?? I need constant validation just to feel worthy of your conversation I got post-it notes all over my mirror that say stupid shit like, ā€œI’m beautiful, I love myselfā€ You said it best I’m the worst fucking liar I’d try a little harder but I’m just so tired You said I must have lost my self respect along the way Because how could you take from me what I never had in the first place? You said I have no self respect and that’s okay Because then I need you around to make me feel like I’m something Tell me do you think I’m someone?? The someone you want me to be?? I’ll cut my hair or grow it out, whatever you wanna see I don’t even know myself, I’m always pretending I’m somebody else And I’ll do whatever to keep you here forever cause I hate being alone more than I hate being together!! You said I must have lost my self respect along the way Because how could you take from me what I never had in the first place? You said I have no self respect and that’s just fine Because then it’s all my fault when I feel like I want to die Oh I lost it Abandon all your self respect, you don’t need where we’re going You said abandon all your self respect, you don’t need it when you have me You said abandon all your self respect, you don't need it where we're going You said abandon all your self respect because we’re getting in the car and we’re never coming back, no!!!!

WHAT DID YOU THINK WAS GONNA HAPPEN??? In the morning he drinks whiskey in his coffee I brush it off because i want him to want me No sugar or cream, he says I’m all the sweet he needs Sends me off with a shot and a kiss on the cheek Oh my god, I think he might be an aries He’s so sweet but he kind of scares me Stays out all night getting drunk and picking fights And i want to make him mine but i know it’s just a waste of time He says he wants to Live fast die fun Cause i'm the only in love And i know it’s sounds dumb But i wanna self destruct Live fast, die fun!! When i saw you i thought i’d never seen something so lovely You thought ā€œi think she could take care of meā€ Let’s drink rum and coke, give each other stick and pokes Every time i try to tell you to fuck off, I can't, I choke Live fast, die fun!!

Wallflower 03:24
Falling in love with you is just asking to get my heart broken Sharing another cigarette even though we both quit smoking I’ll love you if you let me, I don’t know what I’m expecting You said you don’t want love, just human connection You just wanna fuck with no self reflection I don't care if no one knows I’ll be the wallflower at the back of your shows I’ll only come around if you ask me to And I’ll wait forever to fall in love with you Everyone can see it, everybody knows You’re just gonna leave me, you’re just gonna go Because I can’t keep my promises I can’t keep you around I can’t get my shit together, I’m always the rebound Still.... I don't care if no one knows I’ll be the wallflower at the back of your shows I’ll only come around if you ask me to And I’ll wait forever To fall in love with you Being sad isn’t romantic, it just fucking sucks And I’ll never find love cause I’m shit of luck Being heartbroken is no fucking fun And I’ll never love again because you were the one

Wine Stains 03:44
In the car I fell asleep, dreamt of you in the passenger seat Woke up to your text messages like it was a bad omen Stole the things that you gave to me If I asked you’d give me anything I touched your arm too much, I let you drive home drunk I just keep fucking up You got wine stains on your teeth and your t-shirt The night you broke my heart, it still hurts Friends don’t say ā€œI love youā€ as much as you and I do So say there’s nowhere else you’d rather be than ruining your life with me You say we’re too similar, keep our emotions prisoner We wear black to blend in shyly Conscious clean but thoughts so grimy Shrug and act like you don’t care, tonight you’ll have your fingers in my hair I don’t believe you when you’re sweet Your nice guy act is killing me So say there’s nowhere else you’d rather be You're ruining your life with me right?? So say there's nowhere else you'd rather be It's only me, it's only me right?? So say there’s nowhere else you’d rather be than ruining your life with me
