You tried to bite
The dog outside
The neighbor’s party
You want to live forever, darling
Change me, baby
If you'll ever go
I’ll go wherever you might need me, baby
And if you leave me
I’ll sit here waiting for you on daytime TV
I would love just
To duck behind front rows maybe see me
Laughing on the ceiling
Lifting boxes for the needy evening
If you'll ever go
I’ll go wherever you might need me, baby
And if you leave me
I’ll sit here waiting for you on daytime TV
Now, here's something that will really amaze you
Come with me, and I'll show you what every one of you can do single-handed
When the picture comes in clear like this
Is the sound ever so hard to get that all you hear is this?
There, now that's quite a difference, isn't it?
If you'll ever go
I’ll go wherever you might need me, baby
And if you leave me
I’ll sit here waiting for you on daytime TV
If you'll ever go
I’ll go wherever you might need me, baby
And if you leave me
I’ll sit here waiting for you on daytime TV

Not the only time you
Slipped me up to your apartment
Not the only time but
It has never seemed to stop you
It takes some time
Now I’m not so blind
It takes some time
And I will never leave
Unless you need
And now I know
I know you’re the only one
Who can ever see me for
What I wanted most
Not the only time I
Came across easily bothered
Not the only time but
It has never seemed to stop me
It takes some time
Now you’re not so surprised
It takes some time
And I will never leave
Unless you need
And now I know
I know you’re the only one
Who can ever see me for
What I wanted most

Is it your time to save a life
Or are you too tired?
I hope to turn it all around
But I’m behind
How I’m feeling
Grabbing at the ceiling
Watch it grow to the weekend
Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-chase me!
Insa-sanley wasting
Tasting bloody tongues
And the ones that kept me waiting
I’m impatient
Wanna change the station
Could ya
Could ya-ya-ya-ya-ya
Ch-ch-ch-ch-chase me?
Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch
Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch
Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch
Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch

I will live forever
The future is an elevator
At a rat-themed playground
Inside a cheese-theme party
I will live forever
The future is never-ending
But I’m never crying
Cause I’m a robot
At a rat-themed birthday
In a cheese-themed party
And we’re always happy
And we’re never crying
La la sha la la
La la sha la la
I can’t live forever
The future is so damn frightening
And it’s always changing
(Always changing)
While we’re up here playing
(So damn frightening)
We can unplug ourselves
That way we won’t have to stay here
In a rat-themed quartet
With a rat that scares me
La la sha la la
(We can live forever)
La la sha la la
(In our cheese-themed dream land)
La la sha la la
(We can live forever)
La la sha la la
(In our cheese-themed dream land)
La la sha la la
La la sha la la

Wait!
Oh Lisa
You can be my honey
Drive into the city
I know we ain't got money
But would you still come with me?
Wait!
Oh Lisa
We can see a movie
Take it all so slowly
I know that I just need ya
Oh Lisa
Oh Lisa
You could probably trade for
A Camry or a RAV4
However, I can see ya
Please lease a car

Come Home? (ft. YIA YIA)

Or do these parents not know at all?
Like if your child was abusive to animals
I mean that’s a first sign
You know what I mean?
1, 2, 3
And I’m locked up
Once more
You felt
The dirty fingers, lately
Said there’s no one on the pavement
And we
And we
Always knew this
(We always knew this)
But it still hurts to see you through this
Cause I just need you with no purpose
(With no purpose)
Oh and I’m fucked up
Twice more
We talked all this morning
My eyes burn blue
But these months feel like murder
(These months feel like murder)
Generally angrier, you know?
Like literally go and do something to somebody
You have to be
How would you cut somebody’s head off
Or kill somebody
Or even have the desire to do that?
You know
Unless they are the way they are because of their parents
Maybe that’s it, you know?

(I tried)
Tripping up the fire escape
To escape the fire we made
I would never hide what you’re seeking
Hold the door I’m trying to speak
Can you feel it?
Oh, my spirit?
I’m still wanting to want you
And if I can’t, can’t have you I have to
Oh and if you
You go I’ll find you
(Don’t go)
Under pressure, Impressive I can tell
You’ve been pressing buttons too well
I’ll swim in black lakes and I’ll ask you
Could you swim in tanks if you have to?
I’m so certain
Please don’t be nervous
I’m still wanting to want you
And if I can’t, can’t have you I have to
Oh and if you
You go I’ll find you
(Don’t go)

I’ve been told to
“Treat this as your own”
And when I go
I’ll say so long like hello
And all my life
I’ve got someone to love me
And all my life
I’ll give it back so lovely
No use in trying
To bite those you can’t chew
It’s sad in dying
I’m worth more than I knew
And all my life
I’ve got someone to love me
And all my life
I’ll give it back so lovely
And all my life
I’ve got someone to love me
And all my life
I’ll give it back to you

Shake My Heart Out
04:20
|
|||
I’m afraid when no one’s around
To take care of me
Talk me back down
And if you never come home
I’ll have to watch you from the house
I’ll shut all the blinds closed
So I can’t see where you are now
Do you want to break me down?
Do you want to shake my heart out?
Yelling words I learned in stalls
Calling my mom when I heard she fell
I’ll hold your arm so you can’t fall too
I’ll hold you nearer soon
Do you want to break me down?
Do you want to shake my heart out?
I’ll save face if you’ll try
Shave my face just so I can
Grow some proper confidence
Obnoxious breathe, self-consciousness
Do you want to break me down?
Do you want to shake my heart out?

And why would you insist
That I kinda miss it?
For me it’s a mix
We talk on the phone
But you’re real in your tone
Context is different
Now everything’s gone
Dreaming is hatred
And I want to sleep till I’m old
And why would you insist
That I could have missed this?
Feelings get mixed
I care not for what you think of me
But feel only you, and fear what I think
I found a sheep and
Crawled into its body
I’m asleep so
Nobody find me
Mind over matter
My mind doesn’t matter
What matters is mine
And the latter won’t raise the dead
Hey!

A piece of me hates
To hate what I make
And I’ve tried to coincide
And I’ve tried to let go
And I learned
That I’m no better on my own
Heartbeats will shake
But to brave this alone
Is to dive into a lake
In the freezing cold
And I learned
I was never made for the snow
And I’m no better on my own
You’ve made all I breathe
You’ve created the seas
But you won’t fly a plane
Or drive home alone
And you learned
That you’re no better on your own
Yeah you’re no better on your own
Your own
Oh, it sure bothers me
And it takes all of me
To say what I need
And take what I see
But I learned
That we’re no better on our own
Oh we’re no better on our own
No we’re no better on our own
