Why Even Try Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When I forgot you, you came to mind
Every trouble, back in your eyes and
It's all cyclical, so why even try?
Why even try to change?

[Verse 2]
You're yourself way more than I am
Being friends was in the palm of my hand
But I let it fall and break, so why even try?
Why even try to mend?

[Chorus]
On and on
The feelings burst and then they fall
'Till later on
We walk it back and patch things up
On and on
The feelings burst and then they fall
'Till later on
We walk it back and patch things up

[Verse 3]
Soon it will all disappear
Maybe I will miss your voice in my ear
But I can't go back now, so why even try?
Why even try to hear?

[Bridge]
No more us
No more we
No more you
No more me

[Chorus]
On and on (no more us)
The feelings burst and then they fall (no more we)
'Till later on (no more you)
We walk it back and patch things up (no more me)
On and on (no more us)
The feelings burst and then they fall(no more we)
'Till later on (no more you)
We walk it back and patch things up (no more me)
On and on (no more us)
The feelings burst and then they fall(no more we)
'Till later on (no more you)
We walk it back and patch things up (no more me)

[Outro]
When I forgot you, you came to mind
Every trouble, back in your eyes and
I can't go back now, so why even try?
You can't go back now, so why even try?
No, we can't go back now, so why even try?
Why even try to change?

Bambi Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I swear to God, I wasn't born to fight
Maybe just a little bit, enough to make me sick of it
But I-I-I-I can read between the lines
I want to run from everything
But my legs won't work, it's clear to me

[Chorus]
I-I-I-I haven't been much myself
And I feel like my friends are being put through this hell I'm feeling
I think that I'm living, if you could call it living
So brash and unforgiving
Ruled by the vibe I'm bringing
Serving myself
Serving myself

[Verse 2]
The timing's poor I know it's never right
It's hard to see this time of night
Hard to know the reasons why I fucked it up again
Still I breathe a sigh
It doesn't seem so lucky now
Maybe I can figure out why-y-y-y

[Chorus]
I haven't been much myself
And I feel like my friends are being put through this hell I'm feeling
I think that I'm living, if you could call it living
So brash and unforgiving
Ruled by the vibe I'm bringing
Serving myself
Serving myself

[Interlude]

[Outro]
Wait and see, I'll be making my own way now
I'll be making my own way now, to where I got to be
Wait and see, I'll be making my own way now
I'll be making my own way now, to where I got to be
(I-I-I-I haven't been much myself)
Wait and see, I'll be making my own way now
(And I feel like my friends are being put through this hell I'm feeling)
I'll be making my own way now to where I got to be
(I think that I'm living, if you could call it living)
Wait and see, I'll be making my own way now
(So brash and unforgiving)
I'll be making my own way now to where I got to be
(Ruled by the vibe I'm bringing)
Serving myself
Serving myself

Golden Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Living for the past cause the future's gone
Praying in the dark that you won't go home
I should have said it better
I should have set fire to a letter
Forayed by our own
Playing in the dark, where we bore it all
It all makes sense in the center
All makes sense where I sent her

[Pre-Chorus]
But I could
Run to your apartment
Hope to get it started better than before
I could write it in a poem
Pretend I used to know you
Better than before

[Chorus]
Why is it I want to change for you?
Why is it I want to see this through?
Maybe I'm sick of sleeping longer nights with lesser feelings
Maybe I'm better off that way
Maybe I don't want to see you stay
But I'm sick of sleeping longer nights with lesser feelings
Sick of sleeping longer nights with lesser feelings

[Bridge]
Love from the west
Grinning mad, light blue and golden
Found at my best
I'm a sucker for your glowing
Love from the west
Grinning mad, light blue and golden
Found at my best
I'm a sucker for your glowing

[Chorus]
Why is it I want to change for you?
Why is it I want to see this through?
Maybe I'm sick of sleeping longer nights with lesser feelings
Maybe I'm better off that way
Maybe I don't want to see you stay
But I'm sick of sleeping longer nights with lesser feelings
Why is it I want to change for you?
(Love from the west)
Why is it I want to see this through?
Maybe I'm sick of sleeping longer nights with lesser feelings
(Grinning mad, light blue and golden)
Maybe I'm better off that way
(Found at my best)
Maybe I don't want to see you stay
But I'm sick of sleeping longer nights with lesser feelings
(I'm a sucker for your glowing)
Sick of sleeping longer nights with lesser feelings

Bashful Creatures (Instrumental) Lyrics

Chorus:

Bashful creatures, kids don't care at all
Bashful creatures, ratchet face and all
Oh bashful creatures, I don't give a shit
Oh bashful creatures, drown yourselves in it

I do not care who you are or the company you keep
Overall lack of concern with who sleeps on your sheets

Drink up to save mind of who you can be
Tucked-in tank top so you look more like me

You crawl in at dawn
Yes you crawl in to mourn
Yes you crawl

Chorus:

Oh bashful creatures, I don't give a fuck
Oh bashful creatures, running out of luck

I do not care who you are, I don't care what you wear
I don't care who you are, I don't care who you scare

[Outro]
Don't try to fight it anymore
Don't try to fight it anymore
Don't try to fight it anymore
Don't try to fight it anymore
Don't try to fight it anymore
Don't try to fight it anymore
Don't try to fight it anymore
Don't try to fight it anymore

Little Grace (Instrumental) Lyrics

I cannot tell what you claim to see
That your heart is black, and mine is so green
Jealousy is men, someday you'll see
Oh you know, you know, you know

You cry out, Eliza, you scream, and you moan
You're sick of this joyride you want to find home
Adulthood has found you scared and alone
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, doll
Art school girl with ignorant bliss
Peace, weed, cocaine, and mushrooms, and shit
Will bring peace on earth, someday we'll see it
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, doll

They're just pictures trapped inside of your head
They're just pictures trapped inside of your head
(2x)

Chorus:
Save a little grace for...
Save a little, save a little
(8x - continued in background after)

Art school girl with ignorant bliss
Peace, weed, cocaine, and mushrooms, and shit
Will bring peace on earth, someday we'll see it
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, doll

Epitaph Lyrics

I'm blind and afraid
The colors of this sound like a shape
The feast of words you never could say
And I'm torn apart
In the sun, there is red
The epitaph of an old record player
The sweetness in the salt of her hair
And there's no decision

I knew a girl once
There were splinters from her thoughts
Unless you knew a god
With kindness in her heart
You're a dark one
With a knack for pushing boys off a cliff
And the messy eyes of ink-splattered fits
And it's all found in a page

I need nothing more than my problems
Just let me know when you've found them
You've got mirth and I've got snow hands
Eyes fell and haven't come up since

Mary
Dare me, scare me
Oh Mary

I know a place out beyond these pines
Where the sky falls down with the cumulus cries
A winter song for a January type
I could tame my heart
I could blind my eyes
The river is an organ
And the meadow is a church
For a strange inclination
That fortune is a curse
I'm a cryptic writer
I'm an ignorant fool
I'm a poor excuse for poetry
Trying to play it cool
I'm just trying to play it cool

I need nothing more than my problems
Just let me know when you've found them
You've got tact and I've got bravado
I'm a ghost and you are a shadow

I need nothing more than my problems
Just let me know when you've found them
You've got mirth and I've got snow hands
Eyes fell and haven't come up since

Mary
Dare me, scare me
Oh, Mary

Sun Veins Lyrics

Say my name
With your sunlight veins
I saw you there, and I swear you haven't changed
With your sunlight veins

With your sunlight veins...

Tuesday Lyrics

Sometimes I call it Tuesday
Sometimes I call it the best day of my life
Maybe that was a Friday
Making conversation with box of wine

Oh love
I'll only call you when I'm drunk
On Tuesday
On Tuesday

Sometimes I think I'm mundane
Sometimes I think I'm better off like my dad
Maybe that's progressive
Maybe that's the working class

Oh love
I'll only call you when I'm drunk
On Tuesday
On Tuesday

My friends say we are the lucky ones
In terms of our relationship
Alcoholic tendencies underneath our fingertips
I think I love you
I think I know you
Or is it only liquor speak?
I want to love you
I wanna know you

Sometimes I call it a Tuesday
Sometimes I think I am doing fine
Sometimes I call it a Tuesday
Sometimes it's the best day of my life
Sometimes it's the best day of my life
Sometimes it's the best day of my life
Sometimes it's the best day of my life
Sometimes it's the best day of my life
Sometimes it's the best day of my life
Sometimes it's the best day of my life
Sometimes it's the best day of my life
Sometimes it's the best day of my life

South Lyrics

Three leagues down the soft side of where you left my
Gold rose crown, you broke down and left me with a
Chest hum, a black gun, and forty dollars
Chest hum, a black gun, and forty dollars
Three weeks down I drown myself in whiskey
Came back round, and drowned out, you left me with a
Chest hum, a black gun, and forty dollars
Chest hum, a black gun, and forty dollars

Streetlights talk the same way my mother told me
I walk the same way my father told me
Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier
Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier
Wise men talk the same way my mother told me
I walk the same way my father told me
Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier
Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier

You go down south, south
Streetlights talk the same way my mother told me
I walk the same way my father told me
Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier
Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier
Wise men talk the same way my mother told me
I walk the same way my father told me
Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier
Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier

Buttercup Lyrics

I'll be fine on my own, she said, I don't need you inside my head
(She'll be fine on her own)
I'll be fine on my own, she said, all my love's wrapped in shades of red
(She'll be fine on her own)

No holds barred in the ring so you'll fight me
Give 'em hell, give 'em teeth like you taught me
Tireless mess, seeking thrills getting bitey
When I'm in doubt

Pudgy face kissing lace in the backseat
Wrinkle toss of the coin that I can't see
Punch forget out of you to be like me
Where around is enough for a family

I'll be fine on my own, she said, I don't need you inside my head
(She'll be fine on her own)
I'll be fine on my own, she said, all my love's wrapped in shades of red
(She'll be fine on her own)

Growing pains splaying rain on the high sea
Scale a tree, snap a branch so you can't leave
On the ground, lost and found, understand me
Putting words in my mouth, trying to get free

Solid punch kind of eyes make 'em wobbly
Gothic vine growing fire in the lobby
Lighten up, buttercup, get a hobby
Yeah, swing, sucker, swing, finish sobbing

She'll be fine on her own, she said

I'll be fine, I'm alright, it's my body
Gonna stick to my guns, like you taught me
Holy hell, I can tell that you hate me
Dying moon, keep me up, keep me waiting

Vacation Lyrics

My thoughts are a battlefield of sub-surreal and unfamiliar
Dropping hallucinogens to find serene with oak and cedar
With all that fell in our laps
You'd think that peace would come and find us
I struggle to see a point of searching for the walls beside us

There's fickle roads that fade
To paths of safe and signs delivered
Smoking grass to find our facts while hopes decay and wither
I'll take out my lighter to see in dull and dark juniper evenings
I'll burn the field to yield a sign of biblical proportions

Your friends are all waiting
Your friends are all waiting for you, love
Your friends are all waiting
Your friends are all waiting for you, love

I'm not standing anymore
I'm two steps in and two steps over it
I've had my time in the present tense
I'm taking vacation where vacancy's permanent
I'll find the inner tranquil there
I hear you've seen her over the mountain
But I'm not standing anymore
I'll vacate my body and find a direction
I'll vacate my body and find a direction
You said you wanted to you're finally coming to

Your friends are all waiting
Your friends are all waiting for you, love
Your friends are all waiting
Your friends are all waiting for you, love

Ba-bah you said you wanted to
Ba-bah you're finally coming to
Ba-bah you said you wanted to
Ba-bah you're finally coming to
Ba-bah you said you wanted to
Ba-bah you're finally coming to
Ba-bah you said you wanted to
Ba-bah you're finally coming to
Ba-bah you said you wanted to
Ba-bah you're finally coming to
Ba-bah you said you wanted to
Ba-bah you're finally coming to

[Outro]
Don't try to fight it anymore
Don't try to fight it anymore
Don't try to fight it anymore
Don't try to fight it anymore
Don't try to fight it anymore
Don't try to fight it anymore
Don't try to fight it anymore
Don't try to fight it anymore

Monsoon Lyrics

Just two days after the first of June
A pine with arms brushing off the dew
Unlike a sky copious with death
Precipitation of heart and head
Should wash the rest of her youth away
And carry on with it as she may
But something's pending curvaceously
'Cuz sunburned skin won't agree with me

It should've been me...

The pleasure's good as the pleasure's sound
My chin held shut so my heart can talk louder
I was a mess just like the pool
Our days spent crossed out of Sunday school
July has always been shy of June
Some monsoon, monsoon, monsoon
Come heavy of a golden hue
My monsoon, monsoon, monsoon
Monsoon, monsoon...

It should've been me...

Suicide Saturday Lyrics

I heard it told by her mother
Oh, she could try, she could try it
With the power of tin and a bottle of gin,
She was wise, she was wise to it
Cocked her father's gun, like the oldest son,
She could try, she could try it
Blessed by the bed where she laid her head and it calmed to a dull roar

Chorus:

Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
It was a suicide saturday
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
In a summertime kind of way

She fell to the streets till she heard the screams,
She could drive, she could drive it
That was where she'd buy her time, yup
Her friends were crazed in the solemn rains, She could try, she could try it
I met her once, she was tight, she was tight, she was tight, she was tight,
She was tight as hell

Chorus:

Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
It was a suicide saturday
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
In a summertime kind of way

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

Oh, don't you wait now,
Oh, don't you wait now,
Oh, don't you wait now for me.

Oh, don't you wait now,
Oh, don't you wait now,
Oh, don't you wait now for me, for me, for me, yeah

Oh, don't you wait now,
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, it was a suicide Saturday)
Oh, don't you wait now,
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, in a summertime kind of way)
Oh, don't you wait now for me, for me, for me, yeah

Oh, don't you wait now,
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, it was a suicide Saturday)
Oh, don't you wait now,
(Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
Oh, don't you wait now for me, for me, for me, yeah

Oh, don't you wait now,
Oh, don't you wait now,
Oh, don't you wait now for me.

A suicide Saturday
A suicide Saturday

The Halocline Lyrics

I scream your name, as blood bursts from my veins.
In our darkest days, the blood bursts from my veins.
Crawling out of the sewer, crimson red.
Im calling out to the walking dead.

chorus:

This is my home.
This is my only way.
x3 This is my home.

This is my only way HOME.
Oh the sun has died.
Face toward the halocline.
We all have died.
We are all the halocline.
SIng it now.
This is our home.
This is our only way.
x8 THIS IS OUR HOME.
THIS IS OUR ONLY WAY HOME.

Sophie So (Instrumental) Lyrics

You came back, you wanted a piece of my heart or my love
You said you were clever but clever is never enough

A tremble, a shiver; no patience is something you lack
Disastrous and matchless; the shivers that drip off your back

Try to repair what you never quite see
The reasons you spoke of but never had given to me

Chorus:

All gone, are you ever really here
All gone, are you
Got, got, got you, Sophie So
Got, got, got you

You came back you wanted to see through my two-colored eyes
You left me at home with a down-trodden handful of sighs

Chorus:

All gone, are you ever really here
All gone, are you ever really here
All gone, are you
All gone, are you
All gone, are you

You came back, you wanted
You came back, you wanted
You came back, you wanted
You came back, you wanted
You came back, you wanted
You came back, you wanted
You came back you

South (Instrumental) Lyrics

Three leagues down the soft side of where you left my
Gold rose crown, you broke down and left me with a
Chest hum, a black gun, and forty dollars
Chest hum, a black gun, and forty dollars
Three weeks down I drown myself in whiskey
Came back round, and drowned out, you left me with a
Chest hum, a black gun, and forty dollars
Chest hum, a black gun, and forty dollars

Streetlights talk the same way my mother told me
I walk the same way my father told me
Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier
Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier
Wise men talk the same way my mother told me
I walk the same way my father told me
Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier
Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier

You go down south, south
Streetlights talk the same way my mother told me
I walk the same way my father told me
Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier
Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier
Wise men talk the same way my mother told me
I walk the same way my father told me
Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier
Back straight and chest out, just like a soldier

traveler Lyrics

Lost to these linens
My hasteless affections
Are married in the night
Feelings so fleeting
Yet never completing
The thoughts I quit last

It's up to you
It's up to it Anna
It's up to you
It's up to it Anna

I caught a line, caught a line
Clinging to my own devices

Pray to sleep when evening comes
Screaming down to a heart [?] lungs
I always sang about ya
Terrified of what looking life was
Fight a brain with a serpent tongue (?)
[?] about ya
Steadfast in nature
The scenes on my pages
Were on the rise now
Everything's vexing
I'm bored of convincing
Both my parents now
ADVERTISING

Oh, oh, oh, I'm waiting up for you
Oh, oh, oh, say that you want me to be too
Oh, oh, oh, I waited up for you
Oh, oh, oh, twenty-one years for you
Twenty-one years for you

I woke with a headache
My bones in my body
Screamed, "Son, where the hell is your head?"
I reached for some water
To quench the fire
That's burning up in my bed
Haze like a fever
I feel like a dreamer
For sweet tea and lemonade
It clings to my T-shirt
As loud as it lingers
Designed to suffocate

I light up to find
What I've known all this time
There's some beauty here, yeah
The folks in town
Have the kindest eyes
"But you'll drown in the ways," you said
I feel like a fever
Lost to that dreamer
Oh pale face, please believe in me
The futures are coming
But my heart is humming
For a girl that I can't see

Lost to these [?]
On my horizon
[?]

[?] I'm certain
That my heart's hurting
For a girl that I can't see

For a girl that I can't see
For a girl that I can't see
For a girl that I can't see
For a girl that I can't see

Sophie So Lyrics

You came back, you wanted a piece of my heart or my love
You said you were clever but clever is never enough

Disastrous and matchless; the shivers that drip off your back

The reasons you spoke of but never had given to me

Chorus:

All gone, are you ever really here
All gone, are you
Got, got, got you, Sophie So
Got, got, got you

You came back you wanted to see through my two-colored eyes
You left me at home with a down-trodden handful of sighs

All gone, are you ever really here
All gone, are you ever really here
All gone, are you
All gone, are you
All gone, are you

You came back, you wanted
You came back, you wanted
You came back, you wanted
You came back, you wanted
You came back, you wanted
You came back, you wanted
You came back you

Souls Lyrics

back to the streets were the kids are new
love was around the corner from you
you played it well like an old time jive
and girl, i swear, i've never seen you look so alive

back the trail, now upon the path
rolling off the tracks, no you'll never see it again
wrote the song that you dug so much
livin' it up with the boys and such

chorus:

oh, oh we won't go, back to the room where we sold our souls
oh, oh, we won't go
oh, oh, boots and bros, down with the shrine of american gold
oh, oh boots and bros

we moved in packs together
bounded by our oldest brothers, oh, oh, oh
we sung our songs of making
rolling cigarettes and sneaking out, oh, oh, oh
we sung our songs of youth and promised that we'd never lose it, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

chorus:

oh, oh, we won't go
back to the roon where we sold our souls
oh, oh we won't go
oh, oh boots and bros, down with the shrine of american gold
oh, oh, we won't go

Western Kids Lyrics

See how the western kids
Have silicon inside their lips
A mask or an artifice
For the love that their parents give
The northern girls they play the part
With painted face, they're works of art
I swear to god I felt it then
The perfumed aura of wine and gin

I just love this I swear I'll go viral
From the burbs' to the streets now, it's a revival
The spirit is found in the idealistically idle
The age of excess

I just love it, la la la la la la
I just love it, la la la la la la
I just love it, la la la la la la

The midwestern plains recall
Firearms and alcohol
The proxy-server kind of men
The socialites they're brooding hens
The silhouettes they play the part
Their east coast digs are works of art
But the sickness sleeps inside our bones
With solipsistic overtones

I just love this I swear I'll go viral
From the burbs' to the streets now, it's a revival
The spirit is found in the idealistically idle
The age of excess

I just love it, la la la la la la
I just love it, la la la la la la
I just love it, la la la la la la

Boyish Lyrics

Our stucco arms are forever tied loose
Your velvet touch sends me back to the moon
Daddy's coming home but mamma's looking guilty
Brothers in the basement 'til he's thirty
Wolf child's heavy with the weight of the world
Storing all his love in an adolescent girl

There's sunlight dripping off the apricot tree
Lost to the night tide growing in me
Singing to the drunks like they're mom and dad
All we ever knew is what we didn't have

Never really knew if I did something wrong
All I ever heard was "it wasn't my fault"
But what good is truth if you don't understand
Nothing but a pair of calloused hands?

There's sunlight dripping off the apricot tree
Lost to the night tide growing in me
I've been saying to ya
I've been saying to ya
I've been saying to ya
I've been saying to ya
Singing to the drunks like our momma did
All we ever knew is what we didn't have
I've been saying to ya
I've been saying to ya
I've been saying to ya
I've been saying to ya

There's sunlight dripping off the apricot tree
Lost to the night tide growing in me
I've been saying to ya
I've been saying to ya
I've been saying to ya
I've been saying to ya

There's sunlight dripping off the apricot tree
Lost to the night tide growing in me
I've been saying to ya
I've been saying to ya
I've been saying to ya
I've been saying to ya
Singing to the drunks like our momma did
All we ever knew is what we didn't have
I've been saying to ya
I've been saying to ya
I've been saying to ya
I've been saying to ya

warm glow Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Smoke-swell haze on the hill over Tennessee
Leaky churches
Honey-burned tobacco leaves
Girl, teal-eyed, do occupy this tree with me
Summer peelings

[Verse 2]
The rose-set road will bend around
The earth you knew is waiting for you, dear
Some wave-swept gold drips from your mouth
The hazel hounds move south
To meet you here
Sky gone a certain shade of blue
The kind that heaven's fixin' up for you
Boy, that sure-fire desire is true
Raw hands heart-beating to the smoky view

[Verse 3]
Warm glow morning soaked in pastel tea
Soulful, soulful kids stamped to the concrete
Tryna be a paintbrush
Searching for a better seat
Summer peelings

[Chorus]
Arm's length, shoulders wide
Looking for a fight
Peace sign, getting by
People, we'll be alright
Arm's length, shoulders wide
Looking for a fight
Peace sign, getting by
People, we'll be alright
Arm's length, shoulders wide
Looking for a fight
Peace sign, getting by
People, we'll be alright
Arm's length, shoulders wide
Looking for a fight
Peace sign, getting by
People, we'll be alright
Arm's length, shoulders wide
Looking for a fight
Peace sign, getting by
People, we'll be alright
Arm's length, shoulders wide
Looking for a fight
Peace sign, getting by
People, we'll be alright

[Outro]
(Smoke-swell haze on the hill over Tennessee)
Arm's length, shoulders wide
Looking for a fight
Peace sign, getting by
People, we'll be alright
(Leaky churches, honey-burnt tobacco leaves)
Arm's length, shoulders wide
(Girl, teal-eyed, do occupy this tree with me)
Looking for a fight
Peace sign, getting by
People, we'll be alright
Arm's length, shoulders wide
Looking for a fight
(Summer peelings)
Peace sign, getting by
People, we'll be alright

baseball Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I saw a cigarette contend
It was the smell of death that kept strolling in
Maybe that henna'd back of yours
That held me back, back from keeping score

[Chorus]
There goes that moonboy
Looking jungly
With all his leaves a-growing
Split down that long back
He would’ve thought that
If you got to know his
True blue with your fists up
You little kiss up
Wishin' things were heavy
That's fine in the end though
Where'd all our friends go
We can dip if you're ready

[Verse 2]
I bet you take me for a fool
Nothing like, like rules the cool sensation of Pollock and Jules
Some weird abandon in sheets
Though the tongue tastes good
My grammar's falling from the cheeks

[Chorus]
There goes that moonboy
Looking jungly
With all his leaves a-growing
Split down that long back
He would’ve thought that
If you got to know his
True blue with your fists up
You little kiss up
Wishin' things were heavy
That's fine in the end though
Where'd all our friends go
We can dip if you're ready

[Refrain]
I was wrong
You were a friendly kid
I was wrong
You were a friendly kid

[Bridge]
Fill the rafters
Right field dances
Baseball diamonds
Take our chances out

[Pre-Chorus]
There's somethin' fiction 'bout the way that reality's going
Seems like the chakra's playing hopscotch
Anxiety growing
Some cordial framework of the sunset
A yellow made out of gray
My bones are tired of the body
That woke me up today

[Chorus]
There goes that moonboy
Looking jungly
With all his leaves a-growing
Split down that long back
He would’ve thought that
If you got to know his
True blue with your fists up
You little kiss up
Wishin' things were heavy
That's fine in the end though
Where'd all our friends go
We can dip if you're ready

[Outro]
I was wrong
You were a friendly kid
I was wrong
You were a friendly kid
I was wrong
I was wrong
I was wrong

Way It Goes Lyrics

wisconsin pines collaborating with the
day glow vibes an altruistic breed of
Travel guide, you’re chill, but lord knows you’re trying

zombie kids love to hear that easygoing
grab a guitar and just moaning
It’s cool but lord knows they’re trying

that’s the way it goes
that’s the way it goes
It’s so satisfying

you put your records on
exclusively the old pavement ones
a 90s soul with doc martens on
a step away from crying

degenerate-counter culture
crying-socialists
hip-to-lazed-crazed abstractionists
we’re weird, but lord knows we’re trying

that’s the way it goes
that’s the way it goes
It’s so satisfying

Poems Lyrics

Mary packed her bags and left home on a Christmas Eve
For sea soaked skies and dashing lads with cars
An actress orphaned by the social constructs of her art school
A victim of their esoteric rule
So pretentious that she almost thought it cool
But all you'd hear is

La, la la la la...

Purpose was a vague ideal that she would always talk on
Till she fell in love with the salesman from TV
Yeah, she fell in love with a salesman from TV
While all of Hollywood sang

La, la la la la...

Pearly, pretty prize, and a ribbon box of sighs
In a collared shirt
She thought it wouldn't hurt
Certain love of mine with the palest blue eyes
In a collared shirt
I thought it couldn't hurt
Wood flavored kiss taste the concrete of this
It really fucked with me, it really fucked with me
California eyes are a death witch from design
You really fucked with me

La, la la la la...

Vines Lyrics

I see meaning where you don't, where you don't
I see waves of pastel orange and yellow paintings fire
I see futures that you won't, that you won't
I see futures where our nights are lost to condensation

Night time in the basement, screaming about our feelings Running through the cold air
Searching for a meaning
Passed out on the concrete
Dizzy from the spinning
Wake up to the feeling that everybody's leaving

I'm sick of your come downs
Sick of your truce
Sick of your way
I'm sick of your tragedy that's living in our status
I'm sick of your echoes
Sick of these ghosts that haunt our place
I get a feeling that I'll never leave this house again

Night time in the basement, screaming about our feelings Running through the cold air
Searching for a meaning
Passed out on the concrete
Dizzy from the spinning
Wake up to the feeling that everybody's leaving
Everybody's leaving
Everybody's leaving

Failed by design, slow your pace down to mine
Watch my back, heave a sigh
Keep it safe, make it right
[& Stitches, Beans]
Failed by design, slow your pace down to mine
Watch my back, heave a sigh
Keep it safe, make it right

Night time in the basement, screaming about our feelings Running through the cold air
Searching for a meaning
Passed out on the concrete
Dizzy from the spinning
Wake up to the feeling that everybody's leaving
Everybody's leaving
Everybody's leaving

Passenger Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Calico, you'll always chase a pedigree
A better half, so contrary
Why are you so jealous?
Why are you so jealous?

[Verse 2:]
Say you won't
Say you will attend to me
Space is all the light we need
Why are you so jealous?
Why are you so jealous?

[Chorus]
We ran like fools
To chase our blues down
It seemed reminiscent
Patience growing thin
I'll sing for you again in the morning
In the morning baby

[Bridge:]
Passenger, I'm clinging to the driver's seat
But you've got all the fight we need
In your room, so selfish
In your room, so selfish
Ahh

[Chorus]
We laughed like fools
To chase our blues down
I thought it familiar
Patience growing thin
I'll sing for you again in the morning
In the morning baby

[Interlude]
(I was always awake)

[Outro]
I was always awake
Spry to your feels
Keen on the way we were
But I fell ill like our friends
Corrupted by youth
And those who wanted more
If we ever became
The things we lost
The things we left behind
I would wish for the past
When we were pure
Suffering intertwined

Simple Season Lyrics

Posted up, fours got stained from everything
Sippy cups, here's to us and no one else
You're like me, piece by piece you fall apart
Island home, ain't a terrible start

Half moon, hey to the daytime
Blueberry knees feeling just fine, yeah
Break up, down in the backyard
This simple season is all ours, yeah

Friendly storms seem to pull us back
Still lukewarm ashtray heart attacks
Daffodils, happy pills and harriet strikes

Half moon, hey to the daytime
Blueberry knees feeling just fine, yeah
Break up, down in the backyard
This simple season is all ours, yeah
Lake scene, knee deep in the stars
This simple season is all ours, yeah

Sweet love, kiss on the eyelid
Bruised up, chasing the sky, did
You say something about her
My legs brush up beside her

Too young looking for trouble
New god, lost in the struggle
One more night in the backyard
This simple season

This simple season is all ours

Little Grace Lyrics

I cannot tell what you claim to see
That your heart is black, and mine is so green
Jealousy is men, someday you'll see
Oh you know, you know, you know

You cry out, Eliza, you scream, and you moan
You're sick of this joyride you want to find home
Adulthood has found you scared and alone
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, doll
Art school girl with ignorant bliss
Peace, weed, cocaine, and mushrooms, and shit
Will bring peace on earth, someday we'll see it
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, doll

They're just pictures trapped inside of your head
They're just pictures trapped inside of your head
(2x)

Chorus:
Save a little grace for...
Save a little, save a little
(8x - continued in background after)

Art school girl with ignorant bliss
Peace, weed, cocaine, and mushrooms, and shit
Will bring peace on earth, someday we'll see it
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, doll

Doubt Lyrics

[Verse 1:]
Good god, it's a toss up
So sweet but she's a little fucked up
I stopped to think about the future
Seems so clear, never want to lose her

[Pre-Chorus:]
I know, I-I know dear
I think that it's copacetic
Told me that, that I look pathetic
Drinks it up like a kind of fetish now

[Chorus:]
She'll go on and tell me so
She'll go on and tell me

[Verse 2:]
Her friends, all her friends say
She needs something
Like some time away
They say "tell me all your secrets"
Blast that up, up on some dramatic shit

[Pre-Chorus:]
I laugh, I-I-I laugh still
I think that you're just excited
Got my heart up and undivided
Got our love feeling like an island now

[Chorus:]
Love, is it love?
We got trouble keeping up
Who can say you're the one
And never doubt it
(Go on and tell me)
Love, is it love?
We got trouble keeping up
Who can say you're the one
And never doubt it
(Go on and tell me)

[Bridge:]
The way it seems, so quiet now
Subtlety, there's never any need to hide it
I feel it still
We'll never be alone again

[Chorus/Outro]
Love, is it love?
We got trouble keeping up
Who can say you're the one
And never doubt it
(She'll go on and tell me so)
Love, is it love?
We got trouble keeping up
Who can say you're the one
And never doubt it
(She'll go on and tell me)
Love, is it love?
We got trouble keeping up
Who can say you're the one
And never doubt it
(She'll go on and tell me so)
Love, is it love?
We got trouble keeping up
Who can say you're the one
And never doubt it
(She'll go on and tell me)

Anxious Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I could say it right now
But it's not the time
I see those friendly faces but they only make me anxious
I could shout it out loud
In the crowded space
People have been hoping but never been that open

[Pre-Chorus]
There's not much left to do
Even less to say
But glued together moments
Just to throw them all away
Am I looking for a change?
A way to mend?
Something tells me different
But I know it never ends

[Chorus]
I've been here before
Don't you know it's all the same
I've been here before
Don't you know you're not to blame
For feeling
(Anxious, anxious)

[Verse 2]
This head won't quiet down
For a single thought
I’m all circle psychopathic
Belly up, I just forgot
That I could say it right now
I could make the time
People have been hoping and I'm finally breaking open

[Bridge]
Tried screaming but I won't believe it
I'll tell them what they want to hear then
Just give me a week or two to find it
Then maybe we'll get back to the place we started

[Chorus]
I've been here before
Don't you know it's all the same
Don't you know you're not to blame
I'm thinking that
I've been here before
Don't you know it's all the same
Don't you know you're not to blame
For feeling

[Outro]
Tried screaming but I won't believe it
(I've been here before)
I'll tell them what they want to hear then
(Don't you know it's all the same)
Just give me a week or two to find it
(Don't you know you're not to blame)
Then maybe we'll get back to the place we started
(For feeling)

Mistakes Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I know you see the light upon my face
A warning from the gods to stay away
Forbidden like the fruit and I’m the snake
Just a bite, I wanna know the taste
All the things I've seen beyond the frame
I'll steal them like, I'll steal your heart
I'm not that bad, I make

[Chorus:]
Mistakes
Sometimes, mistakes
Sometimes, mistakes

[Outro]
Don't be afraid of the way you feel, yeah
Don't be afraid of the way you feel
It's true love
Right, that's right

Think It Over Lyrics

[Chorus:]
You've got time to think it over
You've got time to think it through
It's a circumstantial outcry
It's a failure to pursue
It’s a sentimental mindset
It's a thoughtless way to love
It’s a blossom in midwinter
It’s a poor man’s cure for touch

[Bridge]
So far in
You could feel it (so far in you could feel it)
So far in
You could feel it (so far in you could feel it)
Ah-ah
Ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
So far in
You could feel it (so far in you could feel it)
So far in
You could feel it (so far in, so far in you could feel it)

[Chorus:]
You've got time to think it over
You've got time to think it through
It's a circumstantial outcry
It's a failure to pursue
It's a sentimental mindset
It's a thoughtless way to love
It's a blossom in mid-winter
It's a poor man's cure for touch

[Outro]
You've got time to think it over
You've got time to think it through
You've got time to think it over
You've got time to think it over
You've got time to think it through

Bubbles Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You could call me irregular
I'm a basic fix for a better man
Seasons change I'm a maniac
For a better known with a bitter end
If you say you're a chicken now you can live it down
We can light the whole thing up

[Refrain]
All the parts that you're fucking with like a tourniquet
I can light the whole thing up

[Verse 2:]
You can say I'm a stranger now
With some falling down we can get it straight
Hazy days in suburbia
At your father's house we self medicate
Intertwined in my urgency
It's so new to me
I can light the whole thing up

[Refrain]
Nothing else been impressing me but I gotta see
I can light the whole thing up

[Chorus]
Burn the room
Oh, I hear it so well
Over soon
Oh, I hear it now

[Bridge]
Honest to god
I really couldn't lie to your face
I look away and feel like a mess
Because what I can't accept
Is the truth that I don't love you
Wish I could say I was a better friend to you then
I'm fucking sorry
I wish I could say I was a better friend to you then
I'm fucking sorry
Once in a while
I will remember everything good
Once in a while

[Chorus]
Burn the room
Feel the gloom now
Over soon
I feel the gloom now

Honestly Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tomorrow seems to seep into the edge of nothing
(A blueish tint and faded vision, hey!)
Aimless eyes are searching for a better something
(But it’s okay, it’s indecision)

[Verse 2]
Pockets full of lilacs that I picked, so pointless
(The violet-scented clouded visions)
Creeping up, the feelings that it’s all for nothing
(It’s okay, it’s indecision)

[Chorus:]
Honestly it's
Hard to know what you’re thinking
Goddamn, give up
It's no fun when you're leaving

[Bridge]
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, but repetitive
Uncertainty, we chase ghosts, indifferent

[Chorus:]
Honestly, it’s
Hard to know what you’re thinking
Goddamn, give up
It's no fun when you're leaving
