Floated In 01:22
I floated in and started living passed a blondie asked you a question "What are you doin? What are you doin?" now it would be bedtime if I could close off my mind it just flops onto you, wet and soppy glue what are you? you know I'd love to rummage through your silky pink space cap oooh I floated in and started living past a blondie asked you a question "What are you doin? What are you doin?"
2.
If I had a dog, I'd take a picture every day am I still so sad? is that pretty lame? everybody says "your decisions are okay but here's a better idea…" and a comment not about my brain if I had a love, I'd draw a picture every day am I still so mad? I guess that's pretty lame everybody says "your first one's just a game you'll find a better one…" and a comment about my body
3.
Fool 02:04
your name is a triangle, your heart is a square I love to see you way over there once I was happy, you found it intriguing then you got to me & left me bleeding you make me feel like a fool waiting for you I thought we could eat bread, I thought we could talk on darker days with our boots kicked off. you look to me, and I look away though I had been looking you make me feel like a fool waiting for you
4.
Embody 01:49
someday in bravery, I'll embody all the grace and lightness everybody understands me, but I wish nobody understood me so you could be the one who did embody all the grace and lightness the world is pretty big, it's cool we fit on it it makes me wanna grow, so I can go see more Sarah is a lightbeam from the picture Jonah sent me it makes me so happy she embodies all the grace and lightness it's sunday night and my friends are friends with my friends it shows me they embody all the grace and lightness Florist signs are everywhere, Emily is in the air on tour with Gabby we embody all the grace and lightness
5.
Too Dark 02:43
I wish I had some control you embarrass me in full I feel low low low I don't wanna know how flustered you were I just wanna hear you say you were wrong how easily I become not real like a bug you brush off your ear you're just dust, I'm just dust if your love was strong as my shame I'd marry you and take your name but it's not, you'll never get it so I guess I'll just forget it too dark I stand alone, lucky and unknown do I belong? do I belong? do I belong? oh when I know I'm not the best girl in the room I tell myself I'm the best you can do do I belong? do I belong? do I belong? no I drink bad coffee, hope that you'll call me (do I belong?) never look back, never look back, never look back, oh (do I belong?) when I get bored, I crash up on the shore (do I belong?) too dark, too dark, too dark, oh (do I belong?)
6.
Tour Good 01:25
I don't know what I'm cut out for if there's anything I have love for I'd throw myself upon its door and tell it how fucked you are up in morning / down at dawn warm up vocals / sing a song sit in car / read a book rest stop eggs or chips, I look at you every day you change, I change, hooray
7.
Interlude 00:45
Ronnie & Frankie miss Meredith even though she's Owen's friend, not their friend, they also love Momo even though he's not Joejoe
8.
I'm 20 01:36
I'm 20 washed up already I'd sell my soul for a free pen on it the name of your corporation ooooh ooooh If by some chance you know what is cool, tell me how I wanna be just how you would imagine me to ooooh ooooh
9.
On the Lips 01:49
I watch David Blaine find myself believing in anything, in many things I watch David Blaine find myself believing in anything, in anything where would I kiss ya if I could kiss ya? why would I kiss ya if I could kiss ya? I'm sorry I'm high let's go sometimes I cry cause I know I'll never have all the answers separated by a subway transfer I watch you disappear as my train rolls away I know you could've kissed me but I'll have to wait where would I kiss ya if I could kiss ya? why should I kiss ya if I could kiss ya?
10.
Sinister 02:10
my soul is not like a waterpark it's big but surprisingly dark it's not as forgivable as you once thought, you'd still be here if it really was you really were a pile of rocks on some planet so far up how long did we even sit? it's good I can't remember it sometimes I get sinister can't always be like Arthur sometimes I just feel sinister can't always turn to Arthur New Mexico where I ran to and closed my eyes and thought of you, and all the time we weren't friends, a parked car we made out against so you went home and shut me out and I grew up, backseats and mouths and there ensued some other shit I'm glad I don't remember it sometimes I get sinister can't understand Arthur sometimes I just feel sinister can't always be like Arthur
11.
when I say goodbye you act like you lost something, or were you really realizing? is it possible that I really miss you? New York feels so huge... what's up with my fate? is it too late? or is it gonna change? if I let myself, I could go crazy, or maybe if you let me now that I know that every time I get sad you just hate me you can go to sleep and sleep it off peacefully I'll be here all night feeling totally fucked wondering what tomorrow will be like and staying up I guess I just make myself the victim like you said that's why when you treat me shitty you get mad it all makes sense now, thanks so much goodbye forever, what the fuck
12.
Outside with the cuties I don't think the woods are too deep the grass covers the sand all the wood is damp Feeling very touched cause my friends are in love Feeling pretty far from home so I sit to write this down I guess it's not really brave I know I'm not a lake I haven't written this part yet will you help me write it? you are bug bites on vacation, you find the sad in everything can't see you cry, you're down the street I wonder when you'll talk to me your eyes reflect the greenish moon you move towards me and I love you I love you I love you I haven't finished this song yet will you help me fix it?
13.
Sappho 01:52
From the street I see your window and I look up in is that even your house? is that Sappho you're reading? is it cool when I don't care? can you feel me in the air? under the crack in the door, can you tell I have no floor? and I'm shivering just thinking where have you been all these minutes? I am too stressed out to do the thing the train won't do but why should I fight back? I'm just not like that and I'm sorry if I have been a real bad friend your face too close to mine to hear you talk so I look up into your window from the street where I am standing (so i look up into your window) is that even your house (from the street where I'm standing) is that your landing (is that even your house) and I wanna know what (is that your landing) you're reading is it cool when I don't care? can you feel me in the air? under the crack in the door can you tell I have no floor? I'm not grounded, nothing nothing nothing
14.
What If 02:22
what we do, for our kids when we don't know who or what it is what we do, for young love what if? what if? what is What If? I'd be down to break my fall using my guitar sunlight on the subway pole fur against a turnstile so last minute oh, to be in it when you're young, you're too young when you're old, you're too old too few ideas, or too many I'm reminded of a dance party when you walk into the rest stop I'm fluttery, you got me feeling so clean
15.
If you really need to stay inside just to be sure you don't break anything, please don't invite me over cause I don't think it is working Today I walked through your town it's ruined for me now I still think you're in every van and I peer into all of them you were a dealer, a friend, a prick, a friend again, with more to it now you're a ghost, a memory or maybe just a bad story Where are you now? I don't really care Who you're around, who you're making scared I don't know or care to know I don't care or know to care
