I pulled the car up outside
The cul-de-sac burned bright
In the glow of the streetlight
It just didn't feel right
(Saying goodbye)
But we gave it our best try
You closed your bedroom door behind the pair of us
And my palms were sweating
Cause my younger skin was shedding
As we sat down on your bedding saying
'No I'm gonna miss you more'
I pulled the car up outside
And left with tears in my eyes
I pulled the car up outside
And left with tears in my eyes

Patience is a virtue that I never did posess
But I would wait around for you a thousand years no less
Cause you said it best
Three words left your lips
Like rocketships
And you didn't miss
Nothing could be close enough
No such thing as overlove, with us
Sharing showers and we hate it
Can hardly take it
There's nothing special taking turns being cold
But we'll yearn, when we're old
So let's make the most while the heatings on
Tell me I'm wrong
Nothing could be close enough
No such thing as overlove, with us
I peek through the mirror in your room
I gotta go soon
Need to be home soon
Take it back off babe
I'll get you off babe
It can be rough babe
Falling in love babe
So don't act so tough babe
Nothing could be close enough
No such thing as overlove, with us

You waited out the front
Not quite old enough
A bottle of the cheapest liquor
Just to get us drunk
And we were smiling
With a shadow cast
We live in it now
It didn't last
I hope I get famous
So we can all waste our time
I'll hire all my old friends
And we'll keep drinking vodka and wine
Until my bank goes dry
And I moved far away
To follow my heart
But I think it stayed
It's at the start
I miss the place
I miss the song
I miss your face
It's been too long
Since we were smiling
With that shadow cast
Over that party
It went by too fast
I hope I get famous
So we can all waste our time
I'll hire all my old friends
And we'll keep drinking vodka and wine
Until my bank goes dry

And this backyard feels so much bigger
But it still don't get no signal
My other half needs hitting back you see
So I'll go down the street
Are you coming with?
You can go to the store
You can fill up on cigs
With the menthol tips
Ain't calling it quits yet
You keep them in business
And we saying 'fuck it'
Don't care that they smell it
Once I was paranoid
Was a little boy
If they judging who cares
They just stuck in a dead end job
And I'm with my best friends oh
We walking through our ends, I
Won't let it end this time
But if it does
The morning comes
You drive me back
I tell you thanks
Go to my room
And write a couple songs about my friends
And write a couple songs about my friends

I told her 'can you chill'
As she looked out through the blinds
I said 'ain't nobody there'
So she took another line
And told me more about that friend she missed
He was the same
Pre-existing chemical unbalance in the brain
So easy to fall of
Slowly, then quickly
Then all at once
Must be a hell of a drug
And she kissed him as he lay there
Sweating through his bleached hair
Gasping like there's no air
Dying on the armchair
Toothless grin closing
But so happy the moment
Guess he owned it
And your lipstick stains his gravestone
Bright red
Bright eyes
Bright head
No lies
No feds
Sunrise
Still dead
Goodbye
Unsaid
Goodbye
Unsaid
What a way to go

Humble me
And mumble my name through your red wine teeth
Then open another and pour for me
Till my eyes don't see
I long for that feeling you gave to me
Comfort me
And make me feel like I'm still seventeen
I pray for the sound of you calling me
Cheek to the carpet you care for me
Don't be scared for me
I'm not scared to bleed
But I won't let you see
I know you won't leave
But please
Don't get too close
Cause albeit the evening goes astray
And once again my scars are on display
The stars I knew the names of once are fading all the same
I hope it rains
I can't keep
Banking on notes for the thrills I seek
Anxious cause I know the distance breathes
It grows then heeds
I can't be what you need

If I run away
On a whim
Don't follow me
Baby I'll sink if you don't let me swim
Let me swim away

the fall

I'll paint you a picture of me
Sitting on the window ledge
I'm bracing for the fall
With my fingers wrapped around the edge
I've been through it all
What's a couple minutes more?
But if you return this call
Maybe I'll swing my legs around
Floor cold against my feet
And let them in when they arrive
With sirens on a quiet street
So go write yourself a melody
With everything I leave behind
And tear out all the pages of this
Notebook that I hide inside
To string together words
In an order that looks best
And then read them to yourself
You might understand the rest
Maybe I'll swing my legs around
Floor cold against my feet
And let them in when they arrive
With sirens on a quiet street
Can you come round
And talk me down
It's getting loud in here
But you're quiet
It drowns out the sirens you bet
So hit me up when you get home
