These Days

"Don't do that," you said, "love me instead," the apple rots inside
Baked into a lie, preserve the high, you found that smoking gun
These days it don't take so long, 'til you feel so low, til I feel so wrong
These days it don't take so long, 'til I feel so low, til I feel so wrong
"Won't do that," you said, bullet cherry red, my bloodshot valentine
Mama's recipe didn't call for me, go ahead, take aim, I'll run (bang!)
These days it don't take so long, 'til you feel so low, til I feel so wrong
These days it don't take so long, 'til I feel so low, til I feel so wrong
Getting out of here won't kill me, I'll do it again like I've done it before
These days nothing can touch me, with my heart wearing armor
And dragging that sword around this empty house
cross the floorboards you won't hear a sound, no
Getting out of here won't kill me, I've done harder things before
These days it don't take so long, 'til you feel so low, til I feel so wrong
These days it don't take so long, 'til I feel so low, til I feel so wrong

Why Can't I Call You?

Count how many times I want it bad, time don't exist inside my head
Why can't I call you?
Why can't I call you?
Why can't I call you?
My voice shakes up each time you're hear, never felt compelled to be sincere
Why can't I call you?
Why can't I call you?
Why can't I call you?
Each passing night, I'm losing sight, know it's not right, relentless compulsion
So wake me up, just to break me down, please I'll be your hound, just wanna hold ya
I lied about love when growing up, when someone gives me the time, I'm showing up
Why can't I call you?
Why can't I call you?
Why can't I call you?
Each passing night, I'm losing sight, know it's not right, relentless compulsion
So wake me up, just to break me down, please I'll be your hound, lost my composure
You occupy my mind and in your palm is where I land
When I'm held inside your gaze, is how an angel greets a man
As good as I could be, yeah I would throw it all away
For a fraction of your time, that's why I only called to say
I can't ignore you, though I should warn you, I can't afford to,
But I adore you wanna feel bad? Just touch my face,
You wanna feel bad? Just touch my face

When You Wake Up
03:40

Summer burning up the stairs to my place
heat wave, waking up flushed on my face
a simpler time
Put on a pop song, just watching ice melt
Your hand around the glass
I'd hate to be wrong, thinking 'bout how it felt
Say you want no one else, ah, ah,
Saw it on your face, tell me what you say, love
I don't wanna wait, call me when you wake up
Stop the world, mesh & lace, hand on my waist
I'm your girl, touch my face, can't be replaced
But you're smoking again
You don't wanna fuck up, you call a taxi
Tears on the sweatshirt, crying in the backseat
I don't wanna hurt you, tell me now, could it be?
Say that, for you, it's me, ah, ah,
Saw it on your face, tell me what you say, love
I don't wanna wait, call me when you wake up
I don't like believing that good things happen for no reason
But you do, you do, you do
I don't like believing that good things happen for no reason
But they do when I'm with you

Suit Uptight!

All this talk about ticking clocks, while all I've got is ticking bombs, so I'll wait
So suit up tight, pull up your socks, maybe take yourself to prom, yeah I'll wait
Yeah I wanna hear about it, tell me your greatest mistake
If you want peace of mind, stop being afraid to age
When we spoke last night, thought I'd lost you, thoughts replacing you
I can't feel much until I feel myself
Hopped up on this crutch, could really use some help
So what you do it for, what you do it for?
I can't feel much, could really use some help
When we spoke last night, thought I'd lost you, thoughts replacing you
When we spoke last night, thought I'd lost you, thoughts replacing you
Thought I'd lost you
Thought I'd lost you
Thought I'd lost you
Thought I'd

Carousel

Pull the veil off of my eyes stand alone in the room with you
Felt frail in this disguise the hardest thing is to tell the truth
There's nothing left to say the apple falls down bruised
No I'm not satisfied something's wrong nothing's new
Pulled off the highway
So take my hand
Just to cry "happy birthday"
For one last dance
I hated your worst days
I'll let you down for the last time
But I loved you
Just a touch of mayhem
Retrace my steps
Feeling more okay then
To what leads next
Staring at the ceiling
Soon enough you'll feel alright
No it's not alright no it's not alright no
As I scream inside the car suddenly I feel more control
Realizing how fucked you are can make you feel less alone
What's the point in prayer if wishes don't come true?
No I'm not satisfied nothing's wrong nothing's new
Pulled off the highway
So take my hand
Just to cry "happy birthday"
For one last dance
I hated your worst days
I'll let you down for the last time
But I loved you
Just a touch of mayhem
Retrace my steps
Feeling more okay then
To what leads next
Staring at the ceiling
Soon enough you'll feel alright
No it's not alright no it's not alright no
Dark nights I sit alone waiting for you for you for you
Here on this carousel waiting for you for you for you
Here on this carousel waiting for you for you for you
