Lost Echoes

My mouth sews shut all on its own
no need for hands to shut it closed
he likes to listen before he goes
so we sit and listen to lost echoes
“go out outside, we’ll get new starts”
but to make new friends just asks a lot
don’t like to speak too much out there
so we listen across the room and stare
ooh, ooh
and we know it’s easier
to cut out common sense
and yeah it’s easier
to nod and play pretend
but ain’t it easier
to take whatever’s left,
whatever’s left
is left
is ours
whatever’s left
is left
is ours
my mouth sews shut all on its own
i’ll finally scream when we’re alone
well he likes to listen before he goes
so we sit and listen to lost echoes
so we sit and listen to lost echoes

High School Dreamers

High school dreamers
Blinded believer
Search and see her
Two kids lost and
They found love in four hands
Let them fall in
But she
Goes rogue into the breeze
She goes unknowingly
Without a key, got no receipt, no hopes, beliefs
Well she’s sixteen playing life like it’s a movie screen
Say school don’t mean a thing
They search to find gold
Still wallow the same notes
The worst still follows
But he
Still takes it piece by piece
He rolls into the breeze
Without a string, no holding piece, no anchor sinked
Seventeen but running miles like it’s just a to b
Say school don’t mean a thing
Say school don’t mean a thing
But they’re just high school dreamers
They’re tied to the bleachers
One day he’ll leave her

Tangy

What I want is different from university
To confuse you, bait you is my fidelity
Some say vows, some say “I love yous”
Some cry with just one touch to
That sweet piece, won’t let you reach but
That’s just me
I’m separate than your other gold trophies
Some are plastic, tragic attic decorating
So I will fall until you place me
Somewhere high and say I’m pretty
Forgive me if I misbehave
'Cause I love my crooked smile
And I love just how you cry
Say I'm fiery, crazy, that's not what I see
Should see beauty, treasure, your pleasure it should be
Break my heart to get some love out
Peel my scars to see me move now
Oh you hate how I play you
But I love my crooked smile
And I love just how you cry
And I'm in love, love, love, love
With my crooked smile, with how you believe my lies
And I'm in love with how you cry
You think I'll change next time
Oh-oo-oh-oh-oh-oh oo-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oo-oh-oh-oh-oh oo-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oo-oh-oh-oh-oh oo-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oo-oh-oh-oh-oh oo-oh-oh-oh-oh

Got It Good

(“I’m just living my life and these old old men are in their truck
and they look at me and they’re like ‘niceeeee’
I was like I literally want to die I roll up my windows I never sing a peep again.
I don’t think I’ll ever sing again”)
Ooo-ooo-ooo
Ooo-ooo-ooo
Say I’ve got it good, you understand my place
A couple doors go down before you see my face
Got some deadbolts and a gate to keep me safe
But times that’s not the case, oh that’s not the case
Ooo-ooo-ooo
Ooo-ooo-ooo
Say we’ve got it good, we’re living in LA
Where the girls don’t eat, they beg and plead
“Oh, Jesus, keep my blood clean”
We’ve got it good he swears she won’t say anything
But oh if she did, if she did,
Well who’d believe her?
Ooo-ooo-ooo
Ooo-ooo-ooo
They say we’ve got it good
They think we’ve got it good
They say we’ve got it good
Sit and look pretty
They say we’ve got it good
They think we’ve got it good
But I can’t go drinking by myself
Looking too pretty
Ooo-ooo-ooo
Ooo-ooo-ooo
Ooo-ooo-ooo
Ooo-ooo-ooo
(“One time I was hooking up with a guy and he was like ‘I want to show you a beat.’
We literally laid there for like 10 minutes listening to his Soundcloud discography)

Best Of Me
03:09
|

See, the storm felt like fire
Wretched, thin black wires
Were falling on our house
The sparks get loud
And it burned when desire
Turned around, backfired
The flames are getting loud
We can’t get out
But when the walls burn through
We’ll be held, just us two
So I’ll let you
Let you see the best of me
And now the door’s open wide
And there’s help outside
But I’m not comfortable
Letting them in our lives
See, it’s been you and me
Think that’s all we need
And maybe others will
Just complicate things
But when the walls burn down
We’ll still be safe and sound
So I’ll let you
Let you see the best of me
I’ll give you
Give you the best of me
When I crashed, wish I fell into lava
When I crashed, wish I fell into dust
But I fall into you like I always do
Like I always do
So I’ll let you
Let you see the best of me
