how can you leave me if I'm not here
how can you leave me if I'm not here
you make the rules but the rules don't seem that clear
what are you thinking?
how can you right me, when I'm not wrong
how can you right me, when I'm not wrong
seems like you've been hiding something from me all along
what are you thinking?
how can you love me, and not be sure
how can you love me, and not be sure
sounds like you've got the disease as well as the cure
what are you thinking?

driving around at night, feels like and advertisement for something else
can I not get this right, or will I just fall asleep and dream of you
and everything else I can not have, or control
you don't want what's right
you just want what shines the most
can I be the spark in your
your eye that twinkles oh so bright
can I be that light
I'm managing to feel half on and half off
people say I'm like a new creature but all I think about is loss
can you help me take this mask off?
can I be that spark in your
your eye that twinkles oh so bright
and thinks about what is so planned
you know this town is quicksand
and I'm sinking
I don't expect you to save me
I just prefer that you claim me

I saw you at the park
you made me feel like dying
I like the way you are
you know the way without trying
and when you said to me
I hate the way you laugh
I felt so alive then
I saw you in the dark
the light was barely showing
you slept out on the beach
your eyes were still wide open
and when you said to me
I hate the way you look
let's trade hearts you should feel this
I left you at the park
to go and start my dying
I like the way you move
a variation on flying
and when you said to me
I'll see you when I do

jumped the shark (live)
03:23
|

I make a list, it goes, on and on and on
of all the things I did wrong
so don't you start, telling me when I jumped the shark
just know I was the happiest I'd ever been when I was in your heart
get drunk, over eat, the self destructiveness goes on and on
walk the streets so desperately write a bunch of shitty songs
one day when the thought of you and I is long gone
I hope you keep the best of us and carry on
and you won't start, wondering bout when we jumped the shark, just know I was the happiest I'd ever been when I was in your heart
in your heart
in your heart

encore
02:34

I like your head on my shoulder
I like your hand in my hand
I like how we fall down on the floor
and I want an encore
I like the feel of your soft lips
I like the pjs you wore
I liked you nullified all the shit that came before
and I want an encore
can I come over again
and when it's over will you pretend
that you don't regret a single thing that happened
it happened, would you admit it happened?
I like the way your make up smears a bit
how the day turns to night yet we still want more
I hate the way the sun rises and you walk out that door
cause I want an encore
I want an encore
