- 1937 State Park
(I never thought it would happen to me but…)x2
No one should ever have to look at themselves
I steer clear of graveyards
They are cliche
In my death-obsessed generation
- Afterglow
Mama said all your dreams will come true
If you sleep in the right bed
Tell me what time it is
I have been working on my plan
I’m gonna fall in love forever
Won’t you tell me what time it is?
- Can't Cool Me Down
[Intro]
(Cool water on my brow
Can't cool me down, can’t cool me down
Cool water on my brow
Can't cool me down, can't cool me down)
[Verse]
Schizophrenia dreaming
- Death At The Movies
It’s hard to adjust your eyes after the matinee
From the womb of the theater to the light of day
But you’ve got something to think about on the ride home
And you’ve got something to talk about if you’re not alone
Outside the walls I hear sirens
Fade to black, dramatic irony
Before my eyes, after the previews
- Don't Remind Me
I was thinking of ways I could get you
Now I’m thinking of ways to forget you
I was finished the minute I let you in my bed
I stayed up late bitching
About being awake
Until you said “For God’s sake”
That’s what you said
- Drunk Drivers
In the backseat of my heart, there's someone sayin' I'm a mess
I couldn't get the car to start, my keys are somewhere in the mess
I fell asleep outside the door and found a letter in the morning
I couldn't make it out although I recognized my own handwriting
We are not a proud race
It's not a race at all
We're just trying
- High To Death
I fell over
I fell onto the ground
I wish I was sober
I can’t get up off the ground
I closed my eyes
And thought I was blind
It’s the middle of the night
- i can play the piano
The time has come to feel good about yourself
You have your own skin and bones to call yourself
And you will never ever be somebody else
So pay your bills
And have your children now
You are endowed with your responsibilities
You’ve got to choose from all these possibilities
- I Hate Living
Sick in the hot, hot bathroom
Glasses steamed, I couldn’t see
And wasn’t it a lovely time?
Didn’t we have such a time?
Home in the cold cold morning
Roommate’s sick, I’m disturbing his sleep
And wasn’t it a lovely time?
- It's Only Sex
The other night I cried while thinking of having sex with you
Not out of desire or shame but some subconscious impulse to feel pain
I wiped my tears on my face and neck and the backs of my ears
And said “now it’s sweat. Now it’s sweat. It’s sweat now”
Just to see you
It’s such a treasure
But when I feel you
- Jus' Tired
I’m probably just tired
I’ll love you again in the morning
I guess it was my fault
I must’ve missed the warning
That’s not what I meant
You twisted the words right out of my mouth
Do you remember
- Knife In The Coffee
My ghost sleeps on the floor
he can't sleep cause there's music next door
I stay awake in case they need a band
he stays awake cause he's a nervous young man
I can't drink because the bars are closed
I can't go out cause I don't have nice clothes
Katie brought a deck of Tarot with her
- Life Worth Missing
As if on cue
They lit a firework
The sky reeled back
And I ran fast to get to you
I think you knew
Before the war began
What loving to run towards
Something can do to a man
- Maud Gone
[Verse 1]
When did our heart
Stop beating?
Used up all the heat
When did it start
Our meeting?
It's been on repeat
I know there's a full moon every night
- My Boy
My boy, we don't see each other much
My boy, we don't see each other much
It'll take some time, but somewhere down the line
We won't be alone
My boy, we don't see each other much
My boy, we don't see each other much
It'll take some time, but somewhere down the line
- No Passion
I never feel
I can never feel
Oh I
Was cut open
And now I
Can never feel
I don't want to do this, I am thinking
- Psst, Teenagers, Take Off Your Clo
Send me a letter, send me your glow
I got it bad now, I want your clothes
Send me a picture, send me your glow
I got your soul now, I got your clothes
Send me a letter, send me your glow
I got it back now, I got your clothes
Send me a picture, send me your glow
I got your soul now, I got your clothes
- Reuse The Cels
I should be glad to have you back
But this time around, something’s turned to black
Your pale body a projection screen
I know every frame, so many times that I’ve seen -
Will it be like before?
Will it ever be the same?
If we reuse the cels
- Romantic Theory
I didn’t like you anyways
You always spoke so quiet
I had to ask you to repeat yourself
I'd like to explain to all of my friends
To everyone involved
How it all happened
How things fell apart
- Sober to Death
Lovely lovely
In your jeans, frenzy
Another movie that I didn't watch with you
Another movie and I'm gonna have to move
That final terror is in your house somewhere
Hiding in boxes, behind closed doorways
Out from the forest adjacent to your garage
I've seen its marks at the corner of your eyes
- Some Strange Angel
I don"t feel the fear anymore
Carry me through your door
When it"s too late to go home
We won"t have to be alone
We"ll keep the world on repeat
Day and night locked out on the street
Time will pass us kindly by
- Something Soon
Biting my clothes to keep from screaming
taking pills to keep from dreaming
I want to break something important
I want to kick my dad in the shins
I was referring to the present in past tense
it was the only way that I could survive it
I want to close my head in the car door
- Stop Smoking
Stop smoking, we love you
Stop smoking, we love you
Stop smoking, we love you
Stop smoking, we love you
Stop smoking, we love you
Stop smoking, we love you
And we don't want you to die
We don't want you to die
- Sunburned Shirts
I haven't looked at the sun for so long
I'd forgotten how much it hurt to
I haven't looked at the sun for so long
I'd forgotten how much it hurt to
I haven't looked at the sun for so long
I'd forgotten how much it hurt to
- Times To Die
All of my friends are getting married
All of my friends are right with God
All of my friends are making money
But art gets what it wants and art gets what it deserves
I think I’m gonna build a giant hotel
Lest we be scattered, I’ll stack it sky-high
It’s not symbolic, it’s just human nature
- Vincent
And half the time I want to go home
And half the time I want to go home
For the past year I've been living in a town
That gets a lot of tourists in the summer months
They come and they stay for a couple days
But hey, I'm living here every day
I don't need the complications
I'm just in it for the beating
