Splish, Splash
Your love was warm
Warmer than the swimming pool
Before I did a cannonball
I should have dipped my toes in
Your hands were cold
But that’s just how it always goes
The more you learn the more you grow
The more I want to die alone
And when the chemicals enter my skin
And find where my depression lives alone
I’m sick from last night’s swim
I think too much
Or maybe you don’t think enough
Or maybe you don’t give a fuck
Or maybe I just swear too much
I’m freaking out
You’re living in a fairy cloud
Watch me run into the walls
I guess I’m eating cat and mouse
And when the chemicals enter my skin
And find where my depression lives alone
I’m sick from last night’s swim
I wish that you would just start listening
To every little thing that’s in my head
So we can start again
Jump
It doesn’t even matter if you try
We fake love
It doesn’t even matter if you try
Don’t go outside the weather’s nice
Relax, splish splash enjoy the night
Don’t go outside the weather’s nice
Relax, splish splash
I wish that you would just start listening
To every little thing that’s in my head
So we can start again
I wish that you would just start listening
To every little thing that’s in your head
So we can start again
I’m not another fish in the aquarium
Cannonball
Splish, splash
Splish, splash

Three Words
02:04
|

You said three words
No one’s ever prepared to hear
Hey joe, the wifi’s down
I looked directly in your eyes
And we both freaked out
We both freaked out
Did you restart the router?
Before I go and check it out
And you said obviously
I’m not a fucking idiot like wow
What are we gonna do?
You said call comcast
Just give me a minute let me figure this out
I haven’t talked to a stranger in years
They’re gonna sell me lighting fast deals
Hulu accounts on top of Hulu accounts
It’s all crushing down on me
Did you restart the router?
Before I go and check it out
And you said obviously
I’m not a fucking idiot like wow
What are we gonna do?
We’re fucking screwed

Doctor
02:48

And when the doctor left the room, I stared at you
You should have realized what we were going through
And in that silent car ride home I lost my phone
You should have realized the things you put me through
You should have realized what we were gonna do
It takes one second till it falls apart
We get so fucking bored
I know it’s difficult to understand
I think I hate your band
Don’t get serious
Don’t get serious
And when the doctor saw your eyes, he was surprised
How could we ever be the same after that night?
I think that we should just be friends
My love descends
I should have realized the things I put you through
I should have realized what we were gonna do
It takes one second till it falls apart
The shit just hit the fan
C’mon just give me one more second chance
To start this up again
Don’t get serious
Don’t get serious
Don’t get serious
Don’t get serious

Jobs, Jobs, Jobs

Twiddle my thumbs awaiting a facetime from the devil
A little too much, a little too much
He said, you’re awfully young to be selling your soul
And my eyes rolled, millennials got it tough
Let’s talk benefits and paid time off
Do do do do do do do do do do
I’m getting a job honey gonna get a real one
I’m getting a job honey gonna get a real one
Jobs Jobs Jobs
Jobs Jobs Jobs
He said, Do you not understand
you’re gonna burn in hell for eternity?
And I chuckled, We’ve got student loans
No groceries at home
Alright sign at the x and I’m your new master
Beats a bachelors in liberal arts
What day can I start?
Do do do do do do do do do do
I’m getting a job honey gonna get a real one
I’m getting a job honey gonna be a big boy
Getting a job now, gonna get a real one
Getting a job now, gonna get a real one, real one, real one, real one
Jobs Jobs Jobs
Jobs Jobs Jobs

Phase One
04:23
|

Phase one, I’ll bury my dreams in the dirt
Where my thoughts still root for you
Phase two, I’ll drink till I’m numb
And I’ll burn all the clothes your stink is on
Phase three, I’ll catch some disease
And I’ll shave my head bald cuz life goes on
I swear I’m getting better
Phase one, I’m over you
The night sky is bluer than my depression socks
And I’ll scream from the bottom of my lungs
Are you listening?
Phase four, I’ll hotwire your car
And steal the CDs you used to love
Phase five, when the police arrive
I’ll learn how to bark like a good dog
I swear I’m getting better
Phase one, I’m over you
The night sky is bluer than my depression socks
And I’ll scream from the bottom of my lungs
Are you listening?
And I’ll be what you wanted me to be
And I’ll marry a celebrity from the TV screen
Divorce is the new dieting
Are you listening?
But in the middle of the night, I remember
How your love has changed my life, I remember
Don’t cry from your draining heart
Don’t cry from your draining heart
Don’t cry from your draining heart
Don’t cry from your draining heart
Don’t cry from your draining heart
Don’t cry from your draining heart

Millions of People
03:47
|

Millions of people share your birthday
Millions of people are afraid of planes
And spiders too, I don’t mind them
I’m an ENFP with anxious tendencies
Millions of people are named Andrew
Millions of people think cilantro taste like soap
And others don’t, I don’t mind it
For peace on this earth, I’ll bite my tongue
Look around, everyone is everyone
Shapes and sounds
Everyone has feelings that don’t feel great
And thoughts that are strange
Everybody’s dying for a second chance
To do something great
Millions of people will surround you
Millions of people want to raise your kids
And that’s alright, I don’t mind them
For peace on this earth, I’ll bite my tongue
Look around, everyone is everyone
Shapes and sounds
Everyone has feelings that don’t feel great
And thoughts that are strange
Everybody’s dying for a second shot
To do something great
Teachers never die
I need a holy sacrifice
Ticket me to ride
Cuz death is just a bus stop baby
Death is just a bus stop baby
Death is just a bus stop baby
Death is just a bus stop baby

Make Out
02:11
|

I really want to make out with you
But I gotta get up real soon
I gotta make it to the grocery store
And finish my chores and do all the things real people do
I really want to get brunch with you
But first I gotta hit the gym up too
I gotta gotta get an endorphin rush
My hearts gotta pump, it’s gotta be swimsuit season soon
I really want to go and take you out tonight
But a Netflix original caught my eye
I’d love to give the first season a try
We can get dinner some other night
I love when you just get me all the time
I love it when I just don’t try
I really wanna spend time with you
But work is really important too
I gotta finish up this powerpoint deck
And balance my checks and start
planning out my retirement fund
I would love to hang out with you
But first I gotta see the guys from high school
You see they’re only in town for the week
And I hate to be bleak but maybe
we should spend the night apart
I really want to be your prince charming some day
But there aren’t enough hours anyway
I’d love to make you feel okay
First I gotta figure out my own brain
I love it when you just get me all the time
I love it when you just get me all the time
I love it when you just get me all the time
I love it when you don’t ask why

Go Figure

I wanted to be wrong, I wanted to be right
I wanted to be everything because I miss you baby
And I’m homesick lately, darling
I wanted to be here, I wanted to be there
I want to be everywhere cuz I’m anxious baby
And times getting crazy, darling
You, you’ve got it figured out
Darling, you, you’ve got it figured out for sure
Tell me what you know
I’m sorry but I couldn’t sleep last night
And it’s perfectly normal to run red lights
Tell me what you know
I’m sorry but I couldn’t sleep last night
And it’s perfectly normal to run red lights
Tell me what you know
We act like kids again
But we don’t pretend, darling
I want to lose control, I want to lose it all
I want to breath the world you see and get high on daydreaming
Change isn’t getting easier, darling
You, you’ve got it figured out
Darling, you, you’ve got it figured out for sure
Tell me what you know
I’m sorry but I couldn’t sleep last night
And it’s perfectly normal to run red lights
Tell me what you know
I’m sorry but I couldn’t sleep last night
And it’s perfectly normal to run red lights
Tell me what you know
Hey, just wake up, there’s no reason for your pain
They said, hey, just wake up, there’s no reason for your pain
There’s no reason for your pain
There’s no reason for your pain
There’s no reason

Danny, I swear the hospital has never looked this ugly
In this sunken bed, my head can barely move
Honestly, I know that you are just a nurse, but can you help me?
I’ve got a few demands, nothing out of the blue
And the keys are hung right next to you
I know they won’t approve
It’s like a petting zoo
There’s nothing more to lose
It’s dinner time
And we don’t care about anyone
Burn out my lungs
Why don’t you pump me up with heroin?
Gamble my sons
It’s getting difficult to figure out
My time is wasting watching old reruns of jeopardy
The smell of piss and shit is getting hard to breath
Honestly, I’m sick off pudding cups and pronto pups
And candy corn in plastic bowls from last year’s Halloween
And you know it’d mean the world to me
I’d love to feel nineteen a second time
And we don’t care about anyone
Burn out my lungs
Why don’t you pump me up with heroin?
Gamble my sons
It’s getting difficult to figure out
Light on I’m gone
Light on I’m gone
Light on I’m gone
Light on I’m gone
