I like the new apartment
I like the new girlfriend
I like the way the summer didn’t end
I hate being responsible
I hate the smell of weed
I hate having to give up on all my dreams
I like my turntable
I hate the radio
I think that’s just part of getting old
And I love my free time, but I don’t get enough
I think I’ve overcommitted to too much stuff
Like skydiving without a parachute
I’ll just close my eyes

It’s been a really long night, I don’t think I should drive
So take my keys and say it’s better I’m alive
I don’t remember the bars but I remember you
Lean against the door and pry off my shoes
Where did I go wrong
Why does it hurt
Has it been too long
Or can I make this work
I’ll make it work
Force water down and crawl off to bed
Ignore the spinning in my head
Wake up at noon waste half the day
My plans don’t matter anyway

Take me over
Take me under, let this go
Clouds are rolling in, this war is over
Please I’m coming home
6am, New England coast
Brooklyns on the balcony, the things I love the most
It’s midsummer, but I’m thinking about the snow
When the roads were slick and empty
But we all made it to the show
And I miss you
But I won’t let it get to me
At least not yet
Your nicotine in my lungs
My favorite way to come undone
Through the haze I can see it
The way that I need you
It’s my favorite thing that I’ve ever done
My best days, I’m not what you need
But it sucks to know that if you cut me open
I don’t think I’d bleed
And it’s midsummer, its noises in my head
You used to be everything
You’re a shadow in my bed
You’re my favorite thing that I’ve ever done

What I Deserve

It’s in my head, but I can’t hear it
It’s in my chest, but I can’t feel it
I’m sorry but I think it’s time to say
I think we should move on
It’s in my best interest to cut this rope I’m hanging on
This was supposed to get easier
You weren’t supposed to get your feelings hurt
No one said it would be this cold in my bed
Maybe this is just what I deserve
Because every second that I’m spending here
Another day, another wasted year
I’m facing down what’s possible, the math just comes out wrong
So I’ll find a way to make this a place where I belong

My Best Days

A feeling that I’ll never remember
Sensation that I will forget
Keep a focus on what you left behind
I’m wondering is it worth it
The colors fade in sunlight
A smile that I never get right
The silence greets me goodnight
As I fade into a memory
I keep holding on and hoping for a change
Think I’d be better off if things just stay the same
Static on the radio, a song we’ll never sing
I’m letting go of yesterday and everything it brings
My heart smells of gasoline
Strike a match and let me be
Take care of my suffering
I’m done being a nobody
On my best days I’m still not what you need
I can’t breathe, and holding to everything I seek
So to speak, it’s building all the time inside of me
