Static

Maybe you're really not like they say you are, like I'd never wish
It's just static
A happy home, a never word
His song in my head for the weekend
His song in my head for the week
Maybe, oh baby
Maybe I walked too far, took away the wave we made last year
When the feeling goes I'll leave you here
A winter's night, just another talk
His song in my head for the weekend
His song in my head for the week
Maybe, oh baby

You're still a kiss on my forehead
As you drive my car
I'd take the sound back if i could
Be okay with your empty mornings
Keep my thoughts to myself
Only to have them flood
Halt my dreaming for an ocean far from you
Your blank stare is enough for me to drown in
Never wanting for the someday things
Surround myself with all your old steals
Haunt the grounds of this faulty lake
If I were the person I wanna be
I wouldn't care so much about what you think
Keep my thoughts to myself
Only to have them flood
Halt my dreaming for an ocean far from you
Your blank stare is enough for me to drown in
Never wanting for the someday things

Yr Party

You should know I don't know how to kiss you the way I want to
But now I'm home and my ideas have a light on them
I know I'm not the only one to show you something you like
I'll make my bed and I'll try a little bit
I tell you that I'm done
Don't invite me to yr party
I wish you didn't listen to me
I'll only confuse you
I'm still gonna talk to you later
I could make this whole thing go away but I don't want to
This lukewarm drink and a less than excited smile
I'll feel blue by tomorrow but I always show up anyway
But really I'm the only one who tries
Distractions aren't real
I wish you didn't listen to me
I'll only confuse you
I'm gonna talk to you later

Always make me drop who I'm seeing
Like a fool I get a few with you
Just enough to relive the past we had
Just enough to forgive my poor decisions
Maybe it's all the gin I've had
But it seems like this could maybe work
We're older now it's all okay
And you let me know you've changed
Since all the ugly words you said
Killed me quick and left me for dead
No matter that now,
Let's go outside for a while
Now I'm drunk and my blinders are on
You tell me that he's not worth it
He's another boy trying to hurt me
Do you know he says the same of you
But you're not like that anymore
Your new girlfriend thinks you're really nice
I can't even find a shirt to wear
To the job that'll leave me sad next year
You're the one who made me this way
Years with you and I'm not the same
Getting help might work for a while
But I heard you're moving up here soon
Maybe I'll find some time to eat
There hasn't been much time for that lately
Not when my songs depend on the way
I look when I play them

Salem

All the times you wonder where to drive yourself
To the top of some make-out view above the houses
Parking lots too foggy for everybody else
Did you know that I waited for you all night?
Nobody really knows why
I do it to myself

About Us
04:48
|

I wonder if you'd be nicer if we were only friends
I have enough friends
I don't think of you that way
I talk to Meredith about the way I feel
And it means more to me than anything
You could take away from me
This sleepy house has to stay awake 'til morning
So we can dance in my dining room
I have all I need
I used to think about him way too much
Holding on to the breath I lost
But when my friends tell me that they're sad and I might catch it
I still try to take it away
Find a ride to Salem
Work on our record
And when my best friend writes his songs about me
I've never felt so
Okay Alone
