Pavement 03:05
Faded, lay on our backs Wide awake on the pavement So tell me what you need I could stay pull away Call a cab or relax in your room Yeah we could In a way we were safe To pretend that we both understood And so far so good Lately I’m tired of faking No hesitation when I’m with you And maybe I’ve been mistaken No medication could pull me through So why’s it like that A knife in my back the catch to my 22 A smile to take back a wasted Kodak A dream that keeps falling through And again Jaded Counting the cards In a game that we’re playing So tell me what you need I could stay pull away Call a cab or relax in your room Yeah we could In a way we were safe To pretend that we both understood And so far so good Lately I’m tired of faking No hesitation when I’m with you And maybe I’ve been mistaken No medication could pull me through Lately I’m tired of faking No hesitation when I’m with you And maybe I’ve been mistaken No medication could pull me through

Kwik Trip 4 in the morning Soft drink handed the guy a five You can keep the change now Cause things are kinda fine now I quit texting my toxic friends I quit wishing the world would end Would somebody explain it Read it like a warranty It’s me a Debbie Downer pessimist Out of my element New me but just a distant relative Oh I think that I can get with it Woah-oh Slam my hand in door And I don’t care anymore And it could really be worse Woah-oh Got my feet on the floor And it could really be worse Woah-oh Everything from before It doesn’t hurt anymore And it could really be worse Woah-oh It’s a big universe And it could really be worse Maybe I forgot about All my insecurities Maybe it’s my roommates I feel like they’re good for me I stopped skipping breakfast Started up a new routine Maybe I should give in Finally go to therapy It’s me a Debbie Downer pessimist Out of my element New me but just a distant relative Oh I think that I can get with it Woah-oh Slam my hand in door And I don’t care anymore And it could really be worse Woah-oh Got my feet on the floor And it could really be worse Woah-oh Everything from before It doesn’t hurt anymore And it could really be worse Woah-oh It’s a big universe And it could really be worse

Replay 02:30
Somebody asked me what I meant When I said that I can’t forget Always a replay in my head Since I met her, 19 was really a waste And it’s chemicals I know But I guess it’s just my flaw And you know I can’t pretend Cause this feels bad in the worst way no control And I’m stuck here on my phone Body in cruise control Everything is just such a mess I think it must be a test That I’m failing, frustrating I can tell that you’re at your best You know I’m really impressed now, now Alcohol and mental arrest When I saw you on the internet And overall I wish you the best But I’d love to see you losing it I think you know, that you looked way better on me Leave it alone, I guess I’ll always be a wannabe So do you think about me half as much as I do you On the ride to Malibu I had my doubts but I Always hoped it wasn’t true Thought that I would be with you Thought that I would be with you Cause I keep thumping my chest Don’t wanna hear what you said Got my feet at the edge of your driveway Let’s stop playing pretend Cause your stuck in my head now, now Alcohol and mental arrest When I saw you on the internet And overall I wish you the best But I’d love to see you losing it I think you know, that you looked way better on me Leave it alone, I guess I’ll always be a wannabe

Hollywood 02:30
A-frames and cottonwoods (Cottonwoods, cottonwoods) Float through the neighborhood (Neighborhood, neighborhood) Take me to Hollywood (Hollywood, Hollywood) Cause my life is a movie And every minute sucks It was moonlit grab my wrist yeah How’d it get like this? Your chapstick on my lips Tell me what I missed Cause you don’t mind I’m underneath your shoes most times 6 years of cruise control Yearbooks and centerfolds Take me to Tokyo Where I can ditch the feeling That I’m just not enough It was moonlit grab my wrist yeah How’d it get like this? Your chapstick on my lips Tell me what I missed Cause you don’t mind I’m underneath your shoes most times Put your cards out On the table You can leave me out if you say so Was it timing? Or a fable? Should’ve told you then back in April A-frames and cottonwoods Float through the neighborhood Take me to Hollywood Cause my life is a movie And every minute sucks

Overrated 02:51
Wasted, I’m driving home And I text my friends just to tell them what they already know Taste it You call me to waste time And you cracked your phone at the killers show but I’m hoping that you’re alright Make up your mind I’m so stuck here confined Got a knife in my spine you know Always looking for more Got me begging at your door All I want is for you to care, just care Cause I get embarrassed every time I’m wasting my life don’t catch your eye You don’t love me but at least you’re amused Honey I know what’s on your mind But you’re too polite Right then everything is a mess And I know I’m fading just a little I guess I’ll make it But you think I’m too overrated now I wish you knew that I feel like I’m no one in this town I’m no one in this town Feels like I’m going to war And I don’t even know what it’s for Lose myself in adoration Empty words and celebration now They’re moving past me now Cause I get embarrassed every time I’m wasting my life don’t catch your eye You don’t love me but at least you’re amused Honey I know what’s on your mind But you’re too polite Right then everything is a mess And I know I’m fading just a little I guess I’ll make it But you think I’m too overrated now I wish you knew that I feel like I’m no one in this town I’m no one in this town

I think I want you a little bit more I’m coming over, I’ll knock on your door Tell me you love me like you did before But I make a mess spill my heart on the floor I’m running away but you stay inside All of my problems you pay them no mind Tell me to fix em, and leave me behind You know that I can’t when you’re here by my side And I might’ve held on to something That I couldn’t replicate So blurry But I’ll just stay home alone I’ll cry through a megaphone I’m walking on fire, feeling the burn Over and over, but I never learn Giving my heart with nothing in return I know it ain’t right It’s just the way that I work I’m feeling stuck here, while you walk on by You’re still unfazed by the way that you lied Hold onto memories of you in my life Wish I could change em, and make em alright And I might’ve held on to something That I couldn’t replicate So blurry But I’ll just stay home alone I’ll cry through a megaphone I’m walking on fire, feeling the burn Over and over, but I never learn Giving my heart with nothing in return I know it ain’t right It’s just the way that I work
