Surfin' 02:42
Alright I guess I will get this off my chest I have never been the best at making bets And I know I’m not making any sense But you don’t need to know about that yet I always change my mind so fast I’ve been dodging cars trying to relax I’m an unapologetic person but some things are just facts I’m not having a good time But I’m with my friends so we can try To make some sense of our lives and fuck ups and regrets And all the things we should have said So now we’re chilling in my room Tony fell asleep he’s on my bed Cause we’ve been smoking weed all day And I think it’s finally getting to him

Funny Story 03:29
Tonight I’ve been intoxicated by the way you move your mouth And when I finally tasted it you know I swear I nearly passed out You had your tongue jammed to the back of my throat And quickly pulled it out when your boyfriend came in to get his coat Is it a funny story if someone got hurt? Cause it wasn’t really me this time but that kinda makes it worse And we’re not pointing any fingers althogh theres blame to go around And we didn’t ask for your opinions about the way that we turned out Or what we’re turning ourselves into I wanna see you with your clothes off And I think you feel the same way And I think I like the way that you talk Just not the things you have to say I guess you could call that bar fight Even tho it was just a couple words Cause I’d rather be given a black eye Than hear another lie from her Cause I thought that she was being honest Or maybe I just didn’t care And there is blame to go around here But I’m having trouble placing where And We’re not pointing any fingers although theres blame to go around And if you want an explanation you’d better figure that one out on your own

Weird 04:43
It’s been like 400 days since I’ve probably fucking talked to you And then I walk by you and I’m kinda high And so many things are rushing through my head in this moment But the biggest is that I hope you don’t see me when I walk by Walking fast should have ran but you sabotaged my plan When you turned around and saw me and you said oh hey whats up I was stoned I was scared I had nothing preprepared So my words probably sounded less like words and more like uh? And it’s good to see you but this weird And every part of this feels so insincere And I can tell we both wanna get out of here Because it’s good to see you but this weird Pardon me as I stop and take a seat on the floor for a second Cause I can’t breathe oh man what luck And the worst part is that i know that i’m stuck here And you're probably back in your car not giving a fuck I really can’t believe this shit I wanna die right where I sit I’m giving up I’m caving in Sent you an invitation to which replied no Because it’s good to see you but this is weird When did the thought of you become my biggest fear? And i can hear your heart beating five miles form here Because it was good to see you but this is weird And It’s good to see you but this is weird And now things are starting to seem so clear Cause I can tell that we’ve both moved on from here And it was good to see out but this is weird

This is the introduction This is the panic button This is the indication that you should probably be ducking I’ve lost all motivation I’ve lost all motor function But I still somehow managed to put on this on this whole production. I’ve got too many feelings and not enough brain cells I haven’t slept a lot this past week if you can’t tell I can’t that say i’m surprised this didn’t go well Cause i’ve been running with my eyes closed down the stairwell And I’m running out of ways to apologize There’s no point putting my past in a disguise And sometimes the truth can do more harm than lies I’m not asking you to understand just sympathize And I wish I could spend one day without these drugs But it’s too late my feelings are fake and I need new lungs And I’m running out of ways that I can apologize There’s no point in trying to put my past in a disguise And sometimes I wish that you were still here by my side I’m not asking you to understand

Well I met a man in a small dark room And he said a lot of things that reminded me of you so I took the elevator just to get a better view But I got trapped inside and I couldn’t break through to you And I thought I heard you say something to me Case I hold the thought of you so carefully Like a virgin it came to me so cautiously No matter how small the sound it still woke me from my sleep Been locked here for days in this small dark room Snd the inside of my head is starting to feel like a tomb This used to be a place where my thoughts could bloom But I had to dig it up to burry every thought of you And I thought I heard you say something to me But it must have just been a dream or memory I can’t tell them apart as of recently From the start I knew that you’d have to leave eventually But you know me Or at least you did for a year or three Yeah you know me And how harmful my habits can turn out to be And I know that a compromise is bittersweet But it felt worth it when you were standing next to me And I thought maybe patience was loyalty Guess I just waited around for you to say that you don’t love me

To be completely honest I just want an excuse Something politically correct I want a doctor to shove his hand down my throat That he can finally get all my thoughts in check A variation of colorful little pills down going down my neck Cause you know I had all of these plans and now I'm losing all my progress I’m a disease I am a terrible mess I am the last thing you want And i’m the first thing you'll get And I am dead set on dragging this whole thing out And I am pretty sure you know what I'm talking about The scary faces they make when you start to fail seem to grow more grotesque But I’ve been putting puzzle pieces back together inside of my chest And it may not look like the picture that’s intended but i’m trying my best And you were all I ever wanted so I will not settle for something less I’m a disease And I’m dizzy From the way you look at me So please don’t leave
