Nights Like This 02:18
lyrics
buy track
Its nights like this where I can barely close my eyes thinking about my adolescence and how I've spent my time back when I was younger you were always on my mind but now you're just a haunting thought that keeps me up at night Its nights like this where I just want to go to bed constantly in conflict with the monsters in my head I wish I was younger I wish that this would end I wish that I had never caused this predicament I'm in

;D 03:00

Hey babe, I've got something to say But I can't express myself when you look at me Your ghostly stare is so distracting And I can't allow myself to go on like this But I feel your body pressed against me, Love you til the end of next week So you cut your hair at the start of the new year And I made the mistake of talking to you I realized that you are no longer the person That I was so fond of, the one that I knew Hey babe, you know that I don't like the way You address me like you've never met me It makes me feel completely empty And it's sad, I know that you've been feeling bad So you press your body up against me Love me til the end of next week So I went back home while you stayed in the basement Deciding that I was another mistake I guess that I'm learning that my time is wasted On you because I know that you'll never change

Frida 03:06
lyrics
buy track
There was a time when my words were bound so tightly in silver But it seems like that was just too long ago Now when I say the things I say they turn all crusty and rust over Fall like teeth right out my mouth and decompose Sometimes I feel like Frida Kahlo Sometimes I feel like I'm just me When I'm with you I just feel numb and I feel shallow When I'm with you I'm just not me I need sleep I need rest Leave me be I'm a wreck Time is moving very slowly today and I think part of the problem is I've been in bed for the past seventeen weeks Good things only last for me when I am deep in sleep And I can feel the sores developed on the insides of my cheeks Think I'll throw myself a pity party then not even show up So I can tell myself I'm sorry and don't worry you're still loved Can't remember why it is I'm starting this again But I can tell you that I'm bored and I can not wait to forget.

I'm Not Trying 03:26
lyrics
buy track
What ever happened to the time we spent together last year and all those times where you made me feel so uncomfortable in my own skin I'm not trying to impose any of my adolescent feelings on you because you don't want to hear them and I am too bitter to ever agree on anything except who's mad at who right now I look at your old pictures, your stupid Polaroids I am unrecognizable, how did it get to this point Can I go to bed please baby Why can't we discuss these issues over the next few weeks and we'll be friends, and we'll make plans to never raise the topic of our past again
