Pet Rat Family
01:31
|

I’m taking my time
I’m reeling in my mind
And I thought I just needed
Some company
But I’m not alone
I’m talking with the trees
And now I know
There’s no one that I need
And people tell me “Nothing in this world comes for free.”
But money’s just a stupid currency
And now I’m in a mini van with everything important to me
I got my video games, I got my pet rat family
And if I got on the highway and drove very far away
I think that it would be okay
Because I’m in a mini van with everything that I could ever need
I got my video games, I got my pet rat family

Hot Water

I used the microwave in your kitchen
To cure my headache
And shared my leftover food with you
As you lay in your bed fermenting
I searched through
All the new stuff that you got
In your room
And I’m wondering if 4 years together
Grants telepathic abilities
Cause we can read each other
Like books with no covers
And you passed out when I went to the bathroom
So I cleaned up my mess and I tucked you in
And on my way out the back door
I saw him entering
This time I’m really moving on
This time I’m really moving on
That’s why I’m writing you this song
Cause this time I swear I’m moving on
This time I’m really moving on
This time I’m really moving on
I can’t stop writing all these stupid songs about you
But this time I swear I’m moving on

Grid Plan Prison
01:18

There’s a place that I go to
When I get out of school
And theres no humans here, but there’s people everywhere
And they don’t trust me cause of what we do
I don’t care about success and
Sometimes I wanna quit school
And I can hear the sound of engines, Trapping the people like prison cell bars and
I ask my self, “What did they do?”
and I wanna take them all back to my home, take care of them and make sure they grow old
But I know it doesn’t matter where you go
try to relax and take a deep breath of chemicals and shit
And it’s something that we’ve all brought on them

I’m alright, I’m okay
Or at least thats what I’ll say
Cause today
I can’t help that I miss you
And the bees, they don't sting
And the birds they all flap their wings
But today
I can’t help that I miss you
I miss those days
When I’d pick you up from your place
And we’d go anywhere in my car
I’m sad and alone
and I wanna pick up my phone
And tell you everything on my mind
But its no use
Our spark has lost its juice
And theres no way to hit rewind
Cause you’re gone, It’s too late
I had you and I let you fly away
And I can’t
Help that I still love you
And you’ve found a new boy
And he knows how to fill your heart with joy
But I just want you
To smile

Beneath The Dirt
02:01

The tiny creatures
They talk to me
when no one else is around to hear
They tell me things about the world
And they tell me everything it says
They know me so well
It's like they're inside my head
And they don’t like it in the city
Where all the people
Drink their caffeine coffee
To cover up
Their nicotine cough
Well maybe I don’t like it either
And maybe I
Should sink beneath the dirt
Cause living here makes everything hurt
Where do I fit in
The tiny creatures refuse to tell me that
They say
I need to find out for myself

Coffee Stains
03:01
|

I’ve been driving through the city
I’ve been feeling pretty shitty
And wishing I was closer to you
Cause I feel so alone
Even though I know that you’re at home
And all I see are coffee stains
The mark you make still remains
All I see are coffee stains
It makes me wonder if you’re okay
Cause I feel so alone
Even though I know that you’re just
Sitting at home
Waiting for someone to call your phone
Well maybe I’ll call your phone
Maybe I’ll call your phone tonight
These days I mostly just say
Exactly what you want to hear
But thats just because I don't want you to worry away
The rest of your days
So I'll say, I'll mostly just say
Exactly what you wanna hear
No i'm not depressed and I'm not nervous
Everything is okay
I'm sorry I think fishing sucks
And gambling's confusing brains for luck
But I'm just another coffee stain
That you refuse to wash away

Burn

Categorize me
With all your rules
And you think you know me
Well you're just a fool
This isn’t how i want to be remembered
Buried under notions of a harsh society
I’ll shine bright as the sun
Then we’ll all become one
Feel the rays warm your skin
Burn away ignorance
And I can feel it now
I can feel it set me free
This isn’t how i want to be remembered
So educate yourself about my gender

Elizabeth
Where have you been
All of my life
Oh I
Lose track of all my time
When I think of you,
I get so blue
Deep down inside
Cause I
I want to make you mine
Oh I don’t see you very often
But I love it when I do
And the way you’ve been looking at me lately
I wonder if you wanna spend some more time with me too
Cause I could really see myself falling in love with you
Elizabeth
I can't understand
Why you're not like
All the girls
Who give me all their time
When I look at you
You should look back too
And give me a smile
But you don't
Yet oh i'll still try
Oh I saw you with your girlfriend
You should have told me from the start
Now I'll act like your invisible
Like I do with the other ones
Then i'll go and tell everyone you broke my heart in two
Liz baby, I love you
