Honey baby darling you’re killing me the way you sit at home and watch TV, you’d rather be with me than someone else, I’d rather be with you than by myself
Whatcha you gunna do if you’re not watching me
Whatcha do gunna do if you’re not watching me, where you gunna go with out your TV cause you won’t find somebody better than me
You should know you should know you should know
I don’t wanna go.

Fish n' Chips

Darling you know I’m not a liar
But I’m the one who started that fire
Just wanted to get closer to the sun
But when you’ve burned as many bridges as I have it’s safe to run
And arson is not a crime
It’s just a cry for help and a waste of time
Just take a look at the price I pay
Selling my soul like lemonade
Now I’m beginning to be afraid
That you might be a firework
If you blow I might miss you
And when you go my hearts gunna heart
A match book and an open mind
Have those two things and you’ll be mine
Just look out for when I chase the sun
I might just burn our house down then pull out a gun
I lost my beer I lost my bride I lost my heart I lost my pride and I’m just getting a little tired of things not working out
I lost my beer I lost my bride I lost my heart I lost my pride and all the fires have gone dry and things stopped working out
Well maybe things stopped working out
When I stopped working out
Or when you stopped eating fish and chips you said that you were a vegan now
maybe everything went south when I screamed get out of my house
I don’t know
I guess I’ll just stick to what I’m good at
Insurance fraud looks like a crime
When you’re looking at it from the outside
But without you what does my life look like ?
Well it’s burning down everywhere we’ve ever been inside
And it starts with the place we met
It starts with the place we met
It starts with the place we met
and I can’t seem to forget,
until your memory is turned to ash

Luca

You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
The first time I met you
You were seventeen and life was sweet
The future still had mystery
Until I found you right back where I left you
Until I found you right back where I left you…
Luca, you got to branch out
Luca, I’m going to get you out of that house
If life is a seven layer dip
Babe your chips still floating in the green onions,
Of high school and home school and Luca you’re too cool for that
Baby you’re too cool for that!
Luca I’m not trying to run your life
But your girlfriends a bitch who the hell does she think she is?
To tell you, you cant be a forensic scientist, oh honey
And Luca everything is going to be okay
If it’s the last thing I do I’m going to get your ass on that plane
Or I’ll drive till nobody knows your name
And Luca your life well it isn’t so bad
I promise your not going to end up just like your dad
I’m going to march, march, march right into that apartment
give you the list of departures
tell you finish what you started
Going to march, march, march right into that apartment
Give you the list of departures
Tell you finish what you started
Oh Luca, you gotta, you gotta branch out
Luca, I’ m going to get you out of that house.
Luca, you gotta, you gotta branch out
Luca, you gotta get your ass off of that couch
Oh Luca, you gotta branch out

Caught n' Candy

Planted one on me, through cotton candy
Oh did you ever mean to make me fall?
And was it some big secret, that you had had your grip on me at all?
And were we so facetious,
to cower behind doubts inside our heads?
Tell me how you want me, I’ll probably still feel lonely in your bed
You were just like candy
You were soft and sweet
But god, how patient can a man be,
When you’re starting to get stuck between my teeth?
Cheated, but honey that’s okay,
‘Cus you were just a memory beck then
Meet me by the locker, and put me back in second place again
Lighting up my lock screen,
Remnants of you once-enamored friend
Beg me for a blessing, and promise me that this will be the end
If you’re and angel cake, then that’s the icing
Just when I though our avenue was done
You’re falling for a mastermind of pipe dreams,
Oh, and you’re starting to get sour on my tongue

Many Suns
04:08
|

|
We were picking
Apart each other’s need
From day one
Laying in the grass
Taking in the many suns
My body turned away
Kept not my sight from you
Frigid cold, but warmth in our blood and bones
Don’t think the sun will change it (change it )
Don’t try to confiscate it (confiscate it )
These scars are yours you made it ( you made it)
But frostbite will take your heart and break it (break it)
We sold your mind
To a traveling sociopath
There was no gain
And now we’re drifting down the riverglass
Don’t think the sun will change it (change it )
Don’t try to confiscate it (confiscate it )
These scars are yours you made it ( you made it)
But frostbite will take your heart and break it (break it)

Embers and Ash

Darling you know that I come in peace,
But I’m the one who pulled you underneath
Just wanted to dive for the deepest pearl
But did you think it was fine to burn down our world?
Embers and ash, The buildings fall
All of our memories, You burned them all
The hotter the fire grows,
The more that I’m sorry that I let you down
The further the saver floats
And I’m tired of watching you drown
Put down your red bird and your gasoline
When I left I swear it wasn’t me
Open mic and a loving verse
Could never make me feel like his firework
I’m smoldering brightly, Stories high
Over the wreckage, Of you and I
The hotter the fire grows,
The more that I’m sorry that I let you down
The further the saver floats
And I’m tired of watching you drown
(repeating) I lost my bear I lost my bride, I lost my heart I lost my pride
(repeating) I can barely keep my head above the water
(repeating) You’re the only, only one I love
