Love me, leave me
Rhythm of the evening, chasing a good time
London's burning
If the world is ending, let's stay up all night
Do you remember what you said to me?
'Cause we lost track of time
Yeah, we lost track of time
You always let me down so tenderly
So live fast and die young and stay forever numb
You said that maybe this is where it ends
Take a bow for the bad decisions that we made
Bad decisions that we made
And if we're going down in flames
Take a bow for the bad decisions that we made
Bad decisions that we made
So we'll make the same mistakes
'Til the morning breaks
So we'll make the same mistakes
'Til the morning breaks
I'm here feeling lower than the sterling
How'd you look so good?
Groundhog evening, dancing on the ceiling
Kubrick's Hollywood
Do you remember what you said to me?
'Cause we lost track of time
Yeah, we lost track of time
You said that maybe this is where it ends
Take a bow for the bad decisions that we made
Bad decisions that we made
And if we're going down in flames
Take a bow for the bad decisions that we made
Bad decisions that we made
So we'll make the same mistakes
'Till the morning breaks
So we'll make the same mistakes
'Till the morning breaks
Now we find ourselves lying right here
Always find ourselves lying right here
Can we make the same mistakes (Ooh)
'Til the morning breaks
Can we make the same mistakes
'Til the morning breaks
You said that maybe this is where it ends
(Maybe this is where it ends)
Take a bow for the bad decisions that we made
Bad decisions that we made
And if we're going down in flames
Take a bow for the bad decisions that we made
Bad decisions that we made
So we'll make the same mistakes
'Til the morning breaks (Ooh)
So we'll make the same mistakes
'Til the morning breaks
Do you remember what you said to me?
'Cause we lost track of time
Yeah, we lost track of time

The Waves
Staring down the barrel of a hundred tons
It might be getting older, but the night's still young
We never, never give up on the lost boy life
So here we are, escaping from the world outside
Oh, what would your mother say if she could see what we're doing now?
Oh, what would your mother say if she could hear what we talk about?
The waves are crashing down on you and me again, again, again
The waves are crashing down on you and me
I'll see you on the other side
Get carried, get carried away, oh-oh-oh-oh
Caught up in, caught up in the waves
Suddenly we're fallin' through the twilight zone
Watch the party playing out in slow motion
So tie a ribbon 'round my arm and throw me in
Is it an apocalypse or nihilism on your lips?
We sink or swim
Oh, what would your mother say if she could see what we're doing now?
Oh, what would your mother say if she could hear what we talk about?
The waves are crashing down on you and me again, again, again
The waves are crashing down on you and me
I'll see you on the other side
Get carried, get carried away, oh-oh-oh-oh
Caught up in, caught up in the waves
The air hit me on the way out
Did it make me more sober or make me more drunk?
I couldn't quite remember the vision of you and of me
The air hit me on the way out
Did it make me more sober or make me more drunk?
I couldn't quite remember the vision of you and me
The waves are crashing down on you and me again, again, again
The waves are crashing down on you and me
I'll see you on the other side
Get carried, get carried away, oh-oh-oh-oh
Caught up in, caught up in the waves
They're crashing down, they're crashing down
They're crashing down on you and me
I'll see you on the other side
It might be getting older, but the night's still young
We never, never give up on the lost boy life
So here we are, escaping from the world outside
Oh, what would your mother say if she could see what we're doing now?
Oh, what would your mother say if she could hear what we talk about?
The waves are crashing down on you and me again, again, again
The waves are crashing down on you and me
I'll see you on the other side
Get carried, get carried away, oh-oh-oh-oh
Caught up in, caught up in the waves
Suddenly we're fallin' through the twilight zone
Watch the party playing out in slow motion

They're crashing down, they're crashing down
They're crashing down on you and me
I'll see you on the other side

Divide
Roll the window down, let the air blow 'round you
A sadness in the breeze as the night divides us
In these darker days, I push the limit to the love you offer
There's a riot in my head, demanding we do this forever
Why would we divide when we could come together?
Just bodies that collide, lost and found each other
So don't, don't leave me alone
Don't leave me alone, don't leave me alone
Why would we divide when we could come together?
Looking back around, glamorize the chaos
Don't let summer nights destroy everything before us
In these darker days, I push the limits to the love you offer
There's a riot in my head, demanding we do this forever
Why would we divide when we could come together?
Just bodies that collide, lost and found each other
So don't, don't leave me alone
Don't leave me alone, don't leave me alone
Why would we divide when we could come together?
So roll the window down, won't let you go like this
Go like this, go like this
Roll the window down, won't let you go like this
Go like this, go like this
Why would we divide when we could come together?
Are we just bodies that collide, lost and found each other
So don't, don't leave me alone
Don't leave me alone, don't leave me alone
Why would we divide when we could come together?
Roll the window down, won't let you go like this
Go like this, go like this
Roll the window down, won't let you go like this
Go like this, go like this
A sadness in the breeze as the night divides us
In these darker days, I push the limit to the love you offer
There's a riot in my head, demanding we do this forever
Why would we divide when we could come together?
Just bodies that collide, lost and found each other
So don't, don't leave me alone
Don't leave me alone, don't leave me alone
Why would we divide when we could come together?
Looking back around, glamorize the chaos
Don't let summer nights destroy everything before us
In these darker days, I push the limits to the love you offer
There's a riot in my head, demanding we do this forever
Why would we divide when we could come together?
Just bodies that collide, lost and found each other
So don't, don't leave me alone
Don't leave me alone, don't leave me alone
Why would we divide when we could come together?
So roll the window down, won't let you go like this
Go like this, go like this
Roll the window down, won't let you go like this
Go like this, go like this
Why would we divide when we could come together?
Are we just bodies that collide, lost and found each other
So don't, don't leave me alone
Don't leave me alone, don't leave me alone
Why would we divide when we could come together?
Roll the window down, won't let you go like this

Roll the window down, won't let you go like this
Go like this, go like this

Million Pieces
I breathe in hard
Don't speak, 'cause it's like a bitter pill
You blow my mind
It makes my heart beat
Harder, harder, harder, hard
The king's a clown
No one is love and it's not a drill
Don't look outside
The world is ending
Faster, faster, faster, faster, fast
The echoes of that news ring loud
(The echoes, the echoes)
No sound can ever drown it out
(The echoes)
It breaks my heart
Beaks my heart into
A million pieces, oh
It breaks my heart into
A million pieces
If it's gonna break me
Won't you let me go
Leave it 'til the morning
I don't wanna know
Breaks my heart
Breaks my heart into
A million pieces
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
A million pieces
We're too far gone
Nothing I say will mean anything
Just drink, f*ck, dance
Right through disaster
I don't want to talk about it now
The echoes of that news ring loud
(The echoes, the echoes)
No music ever drowns it out
(The echoes)
It breaks my heart
Beaks my heart into
A million pieces, oh
It breaks my heart into
A million pieces
If it's gonna break me
Won't you let me go
Leave it 'til the morning
I don't wanna know
Breaks my heart
Breaks my heart into
A million pieces
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
A million pieces
Get fear and loathing out your mind
And don't pull me, don't pull me down from the ceiling
It breaks my heart
It beaks my heart into
A million pieces, oh
It breaks my heart into
A million pieces
If it's gonna break me
Won't you let me go
Leave it 'til the morning
I don't wanna know
Breaks my heart
Breaks my heart into

Doom Days
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
There must be something in the Kool-Aid
Cruising through the doom days
God knows what is real and what is fake
Last couple years have been a mad trip
But how'd y'all look so perfect?
You must have some portraits in the attic
We'll stay offline so no one gets hurt
Hiding from the real world
Just don't read the comments ever, ever
We f*cked this house up like the planet
We were running riot
Crazy that some people still deny it
Think I'm addicted to my phone
My scrolling horror show
I'm live-streaming the final days of Rome
One tab along, it's pornographic
Everybody's at it
No surprise we're so easily bored
Let's pick the truth that we believe in
Like a bad religion
Tell me all your original sins
So many questionable choices
We love the sound that our voice makes
Man, this echo chamber's getting loud
We're gonna choose the blue pill
We're gonna close the curtains
We're gonna rabbit hole down, third act love now
She's gonna flip some tables
I'm gonna move this tale on
We're gonna rabbit hole down, third act love now
We'll be the proud remainers
Here 'til the morning breaks us
We run away from real life, thoughts tonight
We're gonna Peter Pan out
Fade to the close-up, arms 'round
We're gonna stay naive tonight, night, night
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
You, you, you, you
All I think about is you
So I put my phone down
Fall into the night with you
All I think about is you
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
There must be something in the Kool-Aid
Cruising through the doom days
God knows what is real and what is fake
Last couple years have been a mad trip
But how'd y'all look so perfect?
You must have some portraits in the attic
We'll stay offline so no one gets hurt
Hiding from the real world
Just don't read the comments ever, ever
We f*cked this house up like the planet
We were running riot
Crazy that some people still deny it
Think I'm addicted to my phone
My scrolling horror show
I'm live-streaming the final days of Rome
One tab along, it's pornographic

No surprise we're so easily bored
Let's pick the truth that we believe in

Fall into the night with you

Nocturnal Creatures
We're nocturnal, we're nocturnal
We're nocturnal, we're nocturnal
We're nocturnal, we're nocturnal
We're noc-, we're noc-, we're nocturnal
You put your arms around me
Partners in crime in the dead of night
It's our weekend religion
A different chord but the same refrain
We've only got ourselves to blame
Again and again and again
Again and again and again
Let every night play out the same
'Cause I wouldn't, I wouldn't change a thing
We're nocturnal creatures, we own the night
And we don't need a reason if we want to lose our minds
We're nocturnal creatures, drawn to the flame
And the morning doesn't reach us
Well, not until we want it to, want it to
We're nocturnal, we're nocturnal
We're nocturnal, we're nocturnal
We're nocturnal, we're nocturnal
We're noc-, we're noc-, we're nocturnal
No moon, no stars above us
The orange sky says the night's alive
This time with you's elastic
We stretch these hours as far as we can make them go
We've only got ourselves to blame
Again and again and again
Again and again and again
Let every night play out the same
'Cause I wouldn't, I wouldn't change a thing
We're nocturnal creatures, we own the night
And we don't need a reason if we want to lose our minds
We're nocturnal creatures, drawn to the flame
And the morning doesn't reach us
Well, not until we want it to, want it to
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
We're nocturnal creatures, we own the night
And we don't need a reason if we want to lose our minds
We're nocturnal creatures, drawn to the flame
And the morning doesn't reach us
Well, not until we want it to, want it to
Oh, oh
We're nocturnal, we're nocturnal
We're nocturnal, we're nocturnal
Oh, oh
We're nocturnal, we're nocturnal
Oh, oh
We're noc-, we're noc-, we're nocturnal
We're nocturnal, we're nocturnal
We're nocturnal, we're nocturnal
Oh, oh
We're nocturnal, we're nocturnal
We're noc-, we're noc-, we're nocturnal
We received the freedom but we were completely unaware what to do with this freedom
It felt like the hungry people received the foods and we just ate everything
We're nocturnal, we're nocturnal
We're nocturnal, we're nocturnal
We're noc-, we're noc-, we're nocturnal
You put your arms around me
Partners in crime in the dead of night
It's our weekend religion

4AM
Four in the morning, we find ourselves here
The best of us passed out, I don't know who's where
I got all my old friends and new friends I've met once before
In a blanket of smoke as we sink through the floor
Here, here, my family
You are my familia, you are my familia, ah-ah
Here, here, my friends and me
You are my familia, ah-ah
Oh, there is nowhere I would rather be
Never felt more comfortable, could never want for more when I'm here
Oh, there is nowhere I would rather be, oh-oh
Never felt more comfortable, could never want for more when you're near
Ooh
Ooh, ah
Time skips, balloon hits, I'm losing my mind

No, there is nowhere I would rather be, oh-oh
Never felt more comfortable, could never want for more when you're near
Ooh
Ooh, ah
I don't care if we're talking 'bout the same things
I don't care if we're stuck in the familiar
I don't care if we're going 'round in circles
Again, again, again
Here, here, my family
(Might be a walking disaster)
You are my familia, you are my familia, ah-ah
(Not much, but all I would ask for)
Here, here, my friends and me
(Might be a walking disaster)
You are my familia
(Not much, but all I would ask for)
Oh, there is nowhere I would rather be
Never felt more comfortable, could never want for more when I'm here
Oh, there is nowhere I would rather be
I never felt more comfortable, could never want for more when you're near
Ooh, ah
Ooh, ah
I can't remember, I can't remember
I can't remember, I can't remember
I can't remember, I can't remember
Help me piece it all together darlin'

Another Place
I am bound to you with a tie that we cannot break
With a night that we can't replace
I'm lost but found with you, in a bed that we'll never make
It's a feeling we always chase
I could write a book about the things that you said to me on the pillow
And the way you think, and how you make me feel
You can feel my mind and move my body with the fiction, fantasies
Just call this what it is, we don't pretend it's real
So don't make promises to me that you're gonna break
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Don't paint wonderful lies on me that wash away
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Mmm, in another time
And in another place
So lie to me tonight and pretend 'til the morning light
And imagine that you are mine
'Cause when the sun will rise with the truth coming out your eyes
We'll be good in another life
I could write a book about the things that you said to me on the pillow
And the way you think, and how you make me feel
You can feel my mind and move my body with the fiction, fantasies
Just call this what it is, we don't pretend it's real
So don't make promises to me that you're gonna break
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Don't paint wonderful lies on me that wash away
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Feels like something's special but it never felt like love
Wonder what we could be living in another life
Catch us in the mirror and it looks a lot like love
Then you stop me talking as you kiss me from above
So don't make promises to me that you're gonna break
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Don't paint wonderful lies on me that wash away
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Oh, yeah
In another time
And in another place
With a night that we can't replace
I'm lost but found with you, in a bed that we'll never make
It's a feeling we always chase
I could write a book about the things that you said to me on the pillow
And the way you think, and how you make me feel

We only ever wanted one thing from this
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Feels like something's special but it never felt like love
Wonder what we could be living in another life
Catch us in the mirror and it looks a lot like love
Then you stop me talking as you kiss me from above
So don't make promises to me that you're gonna break
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Don't paint wonderful lies on me that wash away
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Oh, yeah
In another time
And in another place

Those Nights
I can feel your eyes in the back of my head
Burning, burning, burning
Floating through the room as the hairs on my arms are
Rising, rising, rising
I'm chemically drawn closer to you
Eyes wide, eyes wide open
Will you be my future or just an escape?
Love me, love me, love me
You'll never get to heaven on a night like this
Those nights when your friends are gone
When you're holding on for someone to leave with
Those nights when you crave someone
To be there at dawn, to wake with, 'cause aren't we all just
Looking for a little bit of hope these days?
Looking for somebody you can wake up with?
Looking for a little bit of hope these days?
We are, we are
Pulling at my t-shirt, your hands everywhere
Rising, rising, rising
As you trip and fall, dragging me up the stairs
What's your, what's your name, now?
You try to get to heaven on a night like this
But you, you never get to heaven on a night like this
Those nights when your friends are gone
When you're holding on for someone to leave with
Those nights when you crave someone
To be there at dawn, to wake with, 'cause aren't we all just
Looking for a little bit of hope these days?
Looking for somebody you can wake up with?
Looking for a little bit of hope these days?
We are, we are
The lights, the lights, the lights
They cut a path across the room
The lights, the lights, the lights
A blinding look from me to you
And I'll be your rabbit in the headlights
We'll never get to heaven
I'll be your rabbit in the headlights
We'll never get to heaven
Those nights when your friends are gone
When you're holding on for someone to leave with
Those nights when you crave someone
To be there at dawn, to wake with, 'cause aren't we all just
Looking for a little bit of hope these days?
Looking for somebody you can wake up with?
Looking for a little bit of hope these days?
We are, we are
Yeah, yeah
From my brain
Burning, burning, burning
Floating through the room as the hairs on my arms are
Rising, rising, rising
I'm chemically drawn closer to you
Eyes wide, eyes wide open
Will you be my future or just an escape?
Love me, love me, love me
You'll never get to heaven on a night like this
Those nights when your friends are gone
When you're holding on for someone to leave with
Those nights when you crave someone
To be there at dawn, to wake with, 'cause aren't we all just
Looking for a little bit of hope these days?
Looking for somebody you can wake up with?
Looking for a little bit of hope these days?
We are, we are
Pulling at my t-shirt, your hands everywhere
Rising, rising, rising
As you trip and fall, dragging me up the stairs
What's your, what's your name, now?

Joy
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Thought I'd never be waking on the kitchen floor
But here I lie, not the first time
Now my morning has broken, and it brings the fear
My mind's falling, falling
Then I feel my pulse quickening
But regrets can't change anything
Yeah, I feel my pulse quickening
When your name lights up the screen
Oh joy, when you call me
I was giving up, oh, I was giving in
Joy, set my mind free
I was giving up, oh, I was giving in
How'd you always know when I'm down?
How'd you always know when I'm down?
Take a walk through the wreckage, clearing out my head
I hear your eyes roll right down the phone
I'm your walking disaster, keep on dragging me
From self-pity, poor me
Then I feel my pulse quickening
But I wouldn't change a thing
Oh joy, when you call me
I was giving up, oh, I was giving in
Joy, set my mind free
I was giving up, oh, I was giving in
How'd you always know when I'm down?
How'd you always know when I'm down?
As the night dissolves into this final frame
You're a sweet relief, you saved me from my brain
From my brain, from my brain, from my brain (brain, brain, brain, brain)
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa (brain, brain, brain, brain)
Oh joy, when you call me
I was giving up, oh, I was giving in
Joy, set my mind free
I was giving up, oh, I was giving in
How'd you always know when I'm down?
How'd you always know when I'm down?
I feel joy when you call me
I feel joy when you call me (I-I-I feel joy)
I feel joy when you call me
I feel joy when you call me
How'd you always know when I'm down?
How'd you always know when I'm down?
Thought I'd never be waking on the kitchen floor
But here I lie, not the first time
Now my morning has broken, and it brings the fear
My mind's falling, falling
Then I feel my pulse quickening
But regrets can't change anything
Yeah, I feel my pulse quickening
When your name lights up the screen
Oh joy, when you call me
I was giving up, oh, I was giving in
Joy, set my mind free
I was giving up, oh, I was giving in
How'd you always know when I'm down?
How'd you always know when I'm down?
Take a walk through the wreckage, clearing out my head
I hear your eyes roll right down the phone

How'd you always know when I'm down?
I feel joy when you call me
I feel joy when you call me (I-I-I feel joy)
I feel joy when you call me
I feel joy when you call me
How'd you always know when I'm down?
How'd you always know when I'm down?

When I Watch The World Burn All I Think About Is You
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
Well it f*cked me up when I fell for you
I shouldn't have let me fall for you
The world is ending on the news
But here in my head I'm drunk on you
My love, my love, unrequited
My love, my love, undecided
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
Ohhh
All I think about is you
The world
All I think about is you
Well it's Forrest Gump inside the news
My head's a cloud, my ego bruised
And drunken dreams, am I deluded?
I'm paranoid, hung up on you
No love, my love
She denies me
My love, my love
Set my mind free
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
Ohhh
All I think about is you
The world
All I think about is you
Oh lay me down in ash again
To watch the world crumble
Oh lay me down in ash again
And watch the world crumble
Ohhh
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
Ohhh
All I think about is you
The world
All I think about is you
All I think about is you
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
Well it f*cked me up when I fell for you
I shouldn't have let me fall for you
The world is ending on the news
But here in my head I'm drunk on you
My love, my love, unrequited
My love, my love, undecided
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
Ohhh
All I think about is you
The world
All I think about is you
Well it's Forrest Gump inside the news
My head's a cloud, my ego bruised
And drunken dreams, am I deluded?
I'm paranoid, hung up on you
No love, my love
She denies me
My love, my love
Set my mind free
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
Ohhh
All I think about is you
The world
All I think about is you
Oh lay me down in ash again
To watch the world crumble
Oh lay me down in ash again
And watch the world crumble
Ohhh
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
When I watch the world burn
All I think about is you
Ohhh
All I think about is you
The world
All I think about is you

Easy Days
All the things we tell ourselves
To feel a little better, better
All the lies we tell ourselves
When we don't have an answer
Don't let me lie down
On the world, the world around us
Don't let me get down
When we're dancing in the dark
'Cause I don't want to fall back again
Back into the easy days
Everything was so simple then
Little fires burned away
Oh won't you help me start a fire?
Come on won't you help me start a fire?
'Cause I don't want to fall back again
Back into the easy days
All the things we tell ourselves
To feel a little better, better
All the lies we tell ourselves
When we don't have an answer
Don't let me lie down
On the world, the world around us
Don't let me get down
When we're dancing in the dark
'Cause I don't want to fall back again
Back into the easy days
Everything was so simple then
Little fires burned away
Oh won't you help me start a fire?
Come on won't you help me start a fire?
'Cause I don't want to fall back again
Back into the easy days
Oh, but you're a fire in the past
Overlooking trouble gone bad
Sugarcoat, nostalgic, and loss
And why'd you want to be that guy?
'Cause I don't want to fall back again
Back into the easy days
Everything was so simple then
Little fires burned away
Oh won't you help me start a fire?
Come on won't you help me start a fire?
'Cause I don't want to fall back again
Back into the easy days
'Cause I don't wanna fall back again
Back into the easy days
To feel a little better, better
All the lies we tell ourselves
When we don't have an answer
Don't let me lie down
On the world, the world around us
Don't let me get down
When we're dancing in the dark
'Cause I don't want to fall back again
Back into the easy days
Everything was so simple then
Little fires burned away
Oh won't you help me start a fire?
Come on won't you help me start a fire?
'Cause I don't want to fall back again
Back into the easy days
All the things we tell ourselves
To feel a little better, better
All the lies we tell ourselves
When we don't have an answer
Don't let me lie down
On the world, the world around us
Don't let me get down
When we're dancing in the dark
'Cause I don't want to fall back again
Back into the easy days
Everything was so simple then
Little fires burned away
Oh won't you help me start a fire?
Come on won't you help me start a fire?
'Cause I don't want to fall back again
Back into the easy days
Oh, but you're a fire in the past
Overlooking trouble gone bad
Sugarcoat, nostalgic, and loss
And why'd you want to be that guy?
'Cause I don't want to fall back again
Back into the easy days
Everything was so simple then
Little fires burned away
Oh won't you help me start a fire?
Come on won't you help me start a fire?
'Cause I don't want to fall back again
Back into the easy days
'Cause I don't wanna fall back again
Back into the easy days
