Please take my hand
So I can fall asleep tonight
I don't appreciate you wandering
Even though you are not mine or anyone else'
She said I look quite terrible, or tired
It's hard to tell the difference
These days, we don't get much sleep
Fuck these night terrors
I can't be your dark cloud
I can't go raining on your parade
I can't be your dark cloud
She said she doesn't mind the rain

(You Were) Fucking Cool

She was a foxy little viper
In a drug-induced coma- the only thing that she could call home
No one forced her into it
She was the sniper to my heart
And I was doomed from the start
No question, I was target practice
It was always her plan
Can't get to sleep without having a drink
If I sleep alone again I swear, I'll lose my shit
And I can't picture you anymore
So baby, please come home
Or send a postcard where you're from
So long, so far gone
We were a sad ending fairytale
Even Bukowski couldn't write a novel that would end so poorly
No one should have to live it
She was the calm before the hostage situation
Now I'm stricken by Stockholm Syndrome
It's never healthy- a 10-year-old in therapy

I Know You, Asshole

I'm inclined to do what you say
But I won't fucking do it anyway
I'll take my picture and then I'll take yours
More hang ups for my wall
Got a broken back- I'll fix that for you
Got a lot of mistakes- I'll fix that too
Broken picture frames around the house
More hang ups for my wall
Everybody wants to be like you and all your friends
But I don't
I'm inclined to get work done
But doing nothing is so much more fun
I saw a UFO the other night
Then read some theories about the afterlife

Field trip to the museum
We'll stop by the gift shop right after
I'll be the souvenier you never needed
You can put me on your shelf
Hang your mistakes on the wall
Laugh at the boys who try to call
Kicking the sand at the playground
Vague about the things that you say now
She said she saw demons in the mirror
Hasn't looked in one since
Do anything to keep our sanity
Or at least ignore all of the growing pains
You'll stick to your bad habits, I'll cling to mine
Of smoking too many cigarettes
And drinking too much wine
You'll ignore the voice of reason, I'll ignore your cool
And I'd ignore almost anything
But I'd never ignore you
She said learn to write without rhyming
But I can't decide which words go with which emotions

It's easier to say what you feel
When you're dyin
If you were a ghost and you went to your own funeral
How many people would be cryin
I could name a few
Or maybe 2, 1 or none
Oh wait- I was a shitty person
OK maybe none

Jesse & Celine

I'll listen to expert opinions
About things that never mattered
Won't matter when it comes down to it all
I remember lilac skylines
It never used to rain this much
It never used to rain this much
As you put on a ski mask
I'll ready the getaway car
I'm ready to go
I remember those nights
Do you Celine, do you?

Yr Glow (feat. Alif)

Smoked the pack I bought today
For sixteen hours, I’ve been awake
Insinuating the thought of you
I’d be lying if I said that
I didn’t care about the fact
That you’re not back
A heart attack
The light reflecting off your face
It blinds me up
And it’s so lovely and it’ll haunt me till the day I die
I’ll take the bus back to your place
But you don’t
Live there anymore, a corridor
That leading to my heart

I will wait around for you to finish school
Maybe pass the time- smoke a cigarette or 2
I have waited 20 something plus years for you
What's another 20 minutes more
Now I sit alone in my room
Thinking of you for days on end
I know you're not waiting for me to call you back

Teenage Wasteland

You feel like shit when you spend the night
Feel so shit when you stay inside
All I wanna do is say bye
Take a boat from the harbour or a train overnight
She said "I'm so done fucking things up"
Maybe this time it'll be different
How we gonna keep on living like this?
Getting fucked up and smoking cigarettes
我们不想回家
We don't want to go home
我们家是垃圾桶
Our home is a shithole
It's a Teenage Wasteland
My friends say I'm too cryptic
I think that's long overdue
I've considered all the alternatives
That everyone sucks and I suck too
No good deed is selfless
I should think more of myself
I've made the bed I sleep in
What the fuck do I do now
