It took some lies to get to you
But then all of my dreams came true.
Broke some hearts along the way
It’s worth it if you’re here to stay.
I don’t condone things normally
That are controversial morally, but,
It took some lies to get to you
And it’s worth it if you love me too.
I swear I’m not the type to lie
But it took some lies to get to you
Nature and nurture together caused this.
I stole your words to write a song
Show you that we’d get along.
I don’t condone things normally
That’ll lead into catastrophe but
It took some lies to get to you
And all the while I felt so blue
Now it’s worth it if you feel the same
And I get to cry your perfect name
Waited months and stretched for myles
And it took some lies to get to you
Sociopathic rendezvous
In order to conquer all we’ll slay all our demons in the meantime.
I’ll soothe your insecurities, bandage my anxieties
Over and over, over and over again.
He’s so close to the cutoff that he’s almost Gen Y.
He’s my intellectual, bisexual younger guy
He’s so inspirational, sensational- the apple of my eye.
He’s my intellectual, bisexual younger guy.
I love a boy who dresses wild.
I love a boy with a Cheshire smile.
Sapphire eyes, raw luxury style.
I love a boy named Myles.

It Means I'm Sad
04:02
|

It’s getting to the point where I think you never loved me-
Does that make me crazy?
I’m wondering all along was there something that I couldn’t see?
I’m afraid of love and I’m afraid of everything
But honestly I’m hoping in the end that for some reason you’ll still marry me
To get along together shouldn’t be so hard
But to belong forever, is it still in the cards?
I’m a wreck without you, and I’m a mess when I’m with you.
It doesn’t mean I don’t miss you. It means I’m sad.
I’m getting very tired of feeling inadequate.
I know you feel it, too.
Sneaking around when I always was an advocate for what you needed to do.
To get along together we have to be alone.
To belong forever- someday I hope.
CHORUS
And I’m trying to forget all the times you made me smile.
I’m getting very tired of feeling really tired and lazy.
I’m getting very tired of feeling uninspired and lazy.

How Do I Grow Up, Mom?
02:44
|

Your concerns are important to me
I can learn, turn, upon a plea.
I’m in reverse, it’s a curse, but no complaining.
How do I grow up, Mom?
I’ve never felt less sentimental
My optimist streak is a rental.
Repair- life’s not fair- it’s constant training.
When did I grow up, Mother?
How do I grow up, Mom?
I’m too busy getting my life together to comb my hair.
I’m too hurried away by my smallest winnings to even care.
No, please, don’t believe that I think I’m right, here.
I never was at all.
How do I grow up, Mom?

No Home
02:50

When you have no home, there’s no point in being tired
With nowhere to go to rest your bones.
When you have no home, your soul is fleeting even more than before.
No lover to keep you warm.
No bed to brave the storm.
No place to lay your head
When your motivation’s dead.
No stove to warm your tea.
No brain-numbing TV.
You’ll have to think about
How you got so down and out.
I’ll lay my body on the train tracks and never come back.
When you’ve seen it all, you are surprised that you continue to fall
Like a limp rag doll.
When you’ve seen it all you may come across to others just the way you feel-
Not a great appeal.
You’ve got no destination
No magic inspiration
No friends to pat your back
During panic attack.
No normal conversation.
No clear contemplation.
You’re sitting on your own
Constantly checking your phone.
Go take a nap down on the train tracks and never come back.
There’s no way to lose your mind when it’s already been left behind.

It's OK to be Alone
01:52
|

Well it’s ok to be alone
Cuz I’d be lonely either way
Even with another body
That I may beg to stay
It never really helps
The feeling never goes away
So why bother fake another day?
I’ve been standing on my own
Since before I knew what lonely meant.
I was nine years old
When my innocence was spent.
And nothing really helps
The feeling never goes away
It gets stronger, but it’s all ok
Cuz everybody tells you it’ll be ok
It’ll get better as you find your way.
But were they there when your purpose was declared?
When it comes to their perception I can’t say I really care
So it’s ok to be alone
Cuz that’s all we’ll ever be
And though it’s nice to have a friend
I don’t know you, you don’t know me.
It might feel like help temporarily
But it’s back to one by the time you count to 1, 2, 3.
