i give you everything and you beg for more
you're always sticking around for the encore
but i don't want you around babe, i don't want you around
you want a girl who you never have to see
i want a love that changes me
i don't want you around babe, i don't want you around
but i don't want you around babe, i don't want you around
waking up alone bracing for the come down
digging through the wreckage of last night's breakdown
betting on futures i know aren't real
if there's a chance let's take it
if it's a mistake then let's make it
i hate how good you make me feel
i give you everything and you beg for more
you're always sticking around for the encore
but i don't want you around babe i don't want you around
you want a girl who you never have to see
and i want a love that changes me
but i don't want you around babe i don't want you around
we can keep our heads down like we always do
but i can't be the girl that you need me to
the best you ever seen, the best is yet to come
if you're gonna finally let me in
you better take me as i really am
the best you ever been, the best is yet to come
you tell me that you need me to get by
but when i'm in your bed you meet my eyes
i know it's not me but it feels like shit
cheap words written on water
and i'm the best i have to offer
but even when i feel worthless i know i'm worth this
we can keep our heads down like we always do
but i can't be the girl that you need me to
the best you ever seen, the best is yet to come
if you're gonna finally let me in
you better take me as i really am
the best you ever been, the best is yet to come
dolled up worrying dressed in blue
dance to sad songs in the living room
leaving all of the hard stuff to someone else
the shadow guiding me through the dark
comparing the fire in our charts
and letting the future worry about itself
i give you everything and you beg for more
you're always sticking around for the encore
but i don't want you around babe i don't want you around
you want a girl who you never have to see
i want a love that changes me
but i don't want you around babe i don't want you around
i don't want you around babe i don't want you around
i don't want you around babe i don't want you

Easy Friend

i want the real thing
where I can hold your eyes and kill the fantasy
but you're broken like me
and we still gotta live after the happy ending
reaching through the vacuum of the criss-cross starlit sky
well you know what i need
to feel the ground settled beneath my feet
but it's alright
we can keep our eyes focused on the bleak and the bright
i'm still not sure what will ease your doubts
but i wouldn't hate it if we worked things out
i'm not an easy friend but you can't wear me down
i wish you were here
watching the water get higher year after year
but you can never say yes
without convincing yourself that you don't deserve it
i miss california and how it made me feel
finally letting myself believe that maybe this time it's real
dreaming of a future with fences down
and a few girlfriends playing house
chickens and children running around
looking after each other
building better together
well you know where i'll be
you can find me at the bottom of everything
but it's alright
i don't need to know the next time you'll get me high
don't know where i'll sleep when we're drowned in the waves
but i wouldn't hate it if you screamed my name
i'm not an easy friend but i can keep you up late
well you know what i mean
when i say i want you at the center of everything
but it's alright
i don't need to be alone with you every night
i've spent most of my life in a duet
but i wouldn't hate it if she shared the bed
i'm not an easy friend but we could make a good set
it's not an easy one but you're still my best friend
i'm not an easy one

Baciami
03:31
|

|
brass pipes screaming drones consumed with dread
with every little detail adding up to the end
throwing my own words back like they’re some revelation
finally spilling the truth and laying it all down at the organ
i never wanted to be some drunk girl crying off her head
a broken basket washed up on the riverbank of your bed
like a child, soul and body, lightness and weight
baciami
the circus vibe funeral dirge bringing us down
with wildflowers fading in the golden hour
my bones are too broke to go through all this again
i'm crawling out of my skin and leaving my body at the organ
and now i'm running my mouth while you stare deadeyed at the wall
but if you'd just said the word i'd come back for more and more
and more and more and more
say it with your whole chest, baciami
when you're ready, baciami
just fucking kiss me
heavy distant silence filling up the car
cause you know i want more than just a fuck in the dark
give me some kind of clue that you even care
a wordless drive to the airport, screaming bright eyes like a prayer
but just because i want you doesn't mean i'll wait around
if there's one thing you taught me it's turning off and checking out
say it with your whole chest, baciami
when you're ready, baciami
just fucking kiss me
i still hope you find a little bit of everything you need
and when you know out what that is i'll still be me
leave it at the organ leave it at the organ leave it at the organ
leave it at the organ leave it at the organ
leave it at the organ leave it at the organ leave it at the organ

Bad News
02:58
|

|
the wind cuts through the heat
and you've given me the good seat
to see if we can work things out while i try on a new name
cause every time you text i keep coming around
but every time we talk you keep closing your mouth
i'm tired of trying new fixes and feeling the same
basking in the glow of the meaning i've found
staring at the ceiling overthinking out loud
and running my brain through the fire and the fury
of the winter we built all the walls coming down
moving on and burying the past in our bodies
'cause you already know all the worst things about me
we can stay in one place to keep things from changing
but it's all brand new it's all bad news
and i don't want to risk losing you
but a little growing apart will do us some good
staring at the sun coming off the bridge
while i'm holding my breath on the balcony's edge
cause i don't feel the need to fill up space
and i don't want to spoil the mood
but these vertigo high rise spins got me dizzy
while i'm tearin down the moon that chased you out of the city
and cutting my hand on the rusted remains
of the summer we built out of metal and memory
holding on to anything that keeps us together
but nothing's gonna change if we wait out the weather
we can learn to let go after you're feeling better
but it's all too much it's all too much
this can't end until i start
to shed my skin, remake my brain and unfuck my heart
it's all too much, it's all too much, it's all too much, it's all too much
it's all too much, it's all too much, it's all too much, it's all too much
you've changed, i've changed
everything's changing
it's all brand new, it's all bad news
this can't end until i start
to shed my skin, remake my brain and unfuck my heart

New Moon

i want to tell you all of my dreams
ask you what every little thing means
find out which ones are really that sweet
life's easier when you're a ghost in my phone
but you're the only real thing i ever touch anymore
proof i'm not as bad as I believe in my bones
came when you called 'cause i hate to be alone
to make mistakes and watch the sun die from another west coast
the gravity of your waves pulling me home
the red sky blinds me as the glow disappears
if we don't do this now it'll be another two years
and if you want her so bad then why are you still here
i don't mind that i'm bound to get hurt
we've been here before and killed ourselves with cures
fucked up in the ways that we want it to be
but give me hell and high water over empty and easy
i could never be everything
but if you let me in we could build something
it's just the shadow of the earth on the new moon between
and you're the starlight breaking cracks into every last part of me
i don't mind
