How 03:44
I wanted you badly, I wanted you worse The ground could have opened for all that it’s worth The moon doesn’t move me, the sun doesn’t melt Another October in patio hell Call me crying please Beg me not to leave you now I'll sigh on the other line “I would but I don’t know how” All of it’s bitter, all of it hurts And I could have loved you for all that it’s worth Wanting it badly, wanting it bright There’s always tomorrow and Saturday night Call me crying please Beg me not to leave you know I’ll sigh on the other line “I would but I don’t know how” Somebody willing, somebody weak She’s letting you have her, she’s thinking of me Lean into lonely, lean into loss Like I could have loved you I swear to god Call me crying please Beg me not to leave you know I’ll sigh on the other line “I would but I don’t know how” Call me crying please Beg me not to leave you know I’ll sigh on the other line “I would but I don’t know how”

Glass House 04:22
We can talk it out Come over I’m just a stone’s throw From your glass house Or leave it in the past Whatever you wanna do goes I learn fast But who’s to say that I got fucked A games a game and luck is luck I’m not a loser I’m a winner in a rut Then the line gets pretty thin between The ego and the self esteem If he thinks I’m duplicitous he’s right What’s a person What’s a body What’s the takeaway tonight Can’t be sure If I’m bad and You’re bad then One of us is better Just laugh It’s good practice Punish me it’s funny when I’m small And my fault Every other dream You get me in a corner Face close Bared teeth Not a lot to crack The symbolism’s thin At least I Have that Think of all the times that he Insisted he would die for me To satisfy a complex I can’t name A bullet aimed between my eyes A sideways slow-mo sort of dive He couldn’t be my martyr but we tried Oh Annie and the narrative They told him I would write How’d I do If I’m bad And you’re bad Then one of us is better Just laugh It’s good practice Punish me it’s funny when I’m small So I’m told If I’m bad And you’re bad Then one of us is better Just laugh It’s good practice Punish me it’s funny when I’m small So I’m told

Glitch 03:13
Tell the doctor I don’t smoke but That’s not exactly true I like to light the camel ones But just because I think the camel’s cute And that’s it I swear to god She can’t see my fingers crossed I’m holding them below the desk Plus audio is on but camera’s off Five dollars for the coffee One dollar for the tip Six bucks for milky water and I only take a couple sips And simulation theory Is religion for sociopaths I watched a doc, it really scared me I can’t get those 90 minutes back If we’re all 1’s and 0’s Why do I feel so blue? Who cares if it’s constructed I’d still die if I jumped off the roof The shower turns my shoulders red The Ativan takes off the edge I’m freaking out and fine again Again Pick apart the weekly panic Let the suffering unspool Progress is well and good But need my therapist to think I’m cool And be my lawyer’s favorite client Sweep the broker off his feet All I want’s approval from the people who I pay to talk to me Used to be a kid Careful, optimistic, pure I guess I’m still a kid but just acquainted with mortality some more Look in the mirror for A half an hour making sure There’s blood under my skin my head is spinning Then my cheek’s against the floor The shower turns my shoulders red The Ativan takes off the edge I’m freaking out and fine again Again The 1’s and 0’s itch my eyes A flaw in character design I’m such a clever story line to write At least I have the camel ones to light

Seeds 03:03
I’d like you to apologize in cursive in between my thighs I know, you have, but now it’s not enough Forget I’m doing better than I was back when I said What I said and let it out Forget the bedspread, and the carpet, and the couch Cracked in half and let spill out the seeds I’m pretty sure you stained your fingers purple on me Yeah Tell me what’s to miss about the way I looked at you outloud and Waited ‘till the worst of us weighed in Comically redundant and there’s nothing to unpack Take it back and let it go Forget the lyrics, and the music, and the show Cracked in half and let spill out the seeds I’m pretty sure you stained your fingers purple on me Yeah

Souvenir 02:45
Here cause it feels alright I’ll forgive my body in your basement tonight Separately I’m struggling and standing at the sink I deserve whatever hurts I think Canonize his breath He can’t hear the snakes despite his head against my chest I’m the bathroom mirror I’m the walk back into bed And yes, I know exactly what comes next So have me again then Wow I don’t wanna get dressed It is what it is Soft and sweet and meaningless Don’t forget that I was here The soreness in my legs: a souvenir

Why We Met 02:53
You’re looking up And I’m looking at your neck Tilted back Clock the curvature The bottle starts to sweat You’re scared of leaving And I wonder why we met Lift the bottle to your lips and tilt it back Clock the curvature From your chin down to your chest You’d never tell me if you wonder why we met I don’t know how to love you I don’t know how to love you I don’t know how to love you, no Turn to face me Lift the bottle Tilt it back Almost ask you if you wonder then The moment’s passed Turn to face me Lift the bottle Tilt it back
