Better Fool
02:01

Nothings gonna change
Just cause you blew the candles out on your birthday cake
I donāt think my friends like me
I think I have ADHD
I think Iāll 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 Iām 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 youāll talk to me
Instead of coming for my throat
And it sure feels real to me now
Itās as clear as itās ever been
I wish I could go back in time and show myself what I couldnāt see then

Drain

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
Iām a lost cause, I got a dark heart
I like to stay sad cause itās a lost art
If you saw me lying dead in the street would you stop your car to take a picture of me?
Iāll be your roadkill, promise to stay still
Weāre going downhill from here
Hey, hey
Iām learning how to drain
All of this hate out from my heart and from my brain
Iām learning not to pick up when you call me because the way I act with you is alarming
And you donāt want my company or conversation
Iām 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 canāt make up my mind
Am I confident?Or a dumb bitch?
So what fuck it who gives a shit!!!!!!!!!
Hey, hey
Iām learning how to drain
All of this hate out from my heart and from my brain
Hey, hey
I just wanna feel okay
Iām taking everything I know, Iām 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 wonāt 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 youād like it in los angeles
You could move in, my roommates would be fine with it
Weāll paint the walls green, your favorite color
And weāll drink vodka slushies all summer
I could dog sit while youāre 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 itās just a stupid dream
I know youād 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 youād 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 itās too cold in san francisco, but i keep you warm so youāll take me where you go!!
Letās keep in touch, maybe one day weāll fall in love
I just wanna be touched, this distance is too much
I think of you all day and it fucks me up!!!

I know you donāt think that Iām cool, and itās not like i need you to
But when you walk into the room Iām trying to impress you
And no Iām 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,
"Nobodyās 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,
"Nobodyās gonna care about the cute little songs you share
And nobody's gonna know how your dumb little songs go"

Friends at Best
02:54

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 wonāt you hold me close when itās cold outside?
If you donāt have a conscience, thatās alright, Iāll lend you mine
I said āIām not gonna fuck things up this timeā
Woke up in your car, you were grinding your teeth, and thereās blood on my thighs
I just wanna be alone without being lonely
I donāt 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 doesnāt mean that itās true
You and I can be friends at best if this is how you treat all of your friends
Iāve got my friends, Iāve got my dog, Iāve got my bed
Iāve been working all week and Iām gonna go out dancing this weekend
And I donāt need you!!!
Lie to myself and say that we are through
This year has been weird and Iām just trying to stay alive
I donāt really know you but yeah, you can come inside
This year has been weird and Iām just trying to stay alive
I donāt really like you but yeah, you can cum inside me
I just wanna be alone without being lonely
I said "donāt 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 doesnāt mean that itās true
You and I can be friends at best if this is how you treat all of your friends

Iām 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 youāre in your mid 20s still chasing a teenage dream
Itās okay if Iām blooming just a little bit late
I used to be young and dumb, now Iām just dumb
Hang around my old town like Iām sentimental scum
So what, who cares!!
Suck it up kid, lifeās not fair!!
Promise that I'll go nowhere
Honesty?? Sincerity??
Oh my god youāre scaring me!!
I think too much, act like Iām 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
Itās okay to wish it were still yesterday
Itās okay, promise Iāll grow up by my 26th birthday

You know itās wrong to treat me like you do
And I know itās pointless, but I believed in you
I kept the light on, I kept the bed warm
You never came home, you said Iād 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, āItās all okay, itāll work out in the endā
Now Iām not sure, itās all a blur
I used to be so self assured
I can hear it in your voice when youāre lying through your teeth
And I donāt feel like myself or the girl I wanna be
Ignore the things you say, make myself small
You'll watch me fade away until Iām nothing at all
I used to be so self assured

I Lost It (Self Respect)
02:11
|
|||
|
Tell me, do you think Iām 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, āIām beautiful, I love myselfā
You said it best Iām the worst fucking liar
Iād try a little harder but Iām 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 thatās okay
Because then I need you around to make me feel like Iām something
Tell me do you think Iām someone??
The someone you want me to be??
Iāll cut my hair or grow it out, whatever you wanna see
I donāt even know myself, Iām always pretending Iām somebody else
And Iāll 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 thatās just fine
Because then itās all my fault when I feel like I want to die
Oh I lost it
Abandon all your self respect, you donāt need where weāre going
You said abandon all your self respect, you donāt 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 weāre getting in the car and weāre 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 Iām 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
Heās 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 itās just a waste of time
He says he wants to
Live fast die fun
Cause i'm the only in love
And i know itās sounds dumb
But i wanna self destruct
Live fast, die fun!!
When i saw you i thought iād never seen something so lovely
You thought āi think she could take care of meā
Letās 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!!

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

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 youād 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 donāt say āI love youā as much as you and I do
So say thereās nowhere else youād rather be than ruining your life with me
You say weāre too similar, keep our emotions prisoner
We wear black to blend in shyly
Conscious clean but thoughts so grimy
Shrug and act like you donāt care, tonight youāll have your fingers in my hair
I donāt believe you when youāre sweet
Your nice guy act is killing me
So say thereās nowhere else youād 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 thereās nowhere else youād rather be than ruining your life with me

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche.
