pity party

I wish that I was out right now
I wish that I was a couple shots down
But I can't seem to get off my couch
It's scary out
Existing sounds
I could really use a night for me
But I can't afford the company
Head's been heavy for what seems like weeks
Please set me free anxiety

You're invited to my pity party
You see me smile but I won't be happy
Losing tears here for everybody
'Cause feeling sorry is my favorite hobby
I know we said that we would go far
But nobody's ever claimed these scars
You're invited to my pity party
You see me smile but I won't be happy

I know I've got expensive taste
It makes my problems feel ok
It's not my fault I'm born this way
A messy brain
I'm not okay
I keep on staring at my phone
It helps me feel less alone
And these uppers also help me cope
It's sad I know
That's how it goes

You're invited to my pity party
You see me smile but I won't be happy
Losing tears here for everybody
'Cause feeling sorry is my favorite hobby
You know I said that we would go far
Open up your body, swear we'll cling these stars
You're invited to my pity party
You see me smile but I won't be happy

I'm a sad man
I should probably fix myself
In a sad world
I'm just asking for a little help
Would ya help me out?
Will you help me out?

You're invited to my pity party
You see me smile but I won't be happy
Losing tears here for everybody
'Cause feeling sorry is my favorite hobby
I know I said that we would go far
Open up your body, swear we'll cling these stars
You're invited to my pity party
You see me smile but I won't be happy

make you feel pretty

Over on the corner of Sunset and Doheny
Up the stairs at On The Rox, that's just where she left me
Waiting, waiting
So she could get high (high, high, high, high)
She doesn't do it often, only every weekend
Sometimes on a Tuesday, she don't really feel like
Sleeping, sleeping
Through the night (high, high, high, high)

Spending all my money just to make you feel pretty
The sky ran out of stars, they're all living in the city
Don't wanna be nameless for life, you wanna be famous? That's fine
Spending all my money just to make you feel pretty

You sound like you're from London, I know you're from Ohio
What have I been drinking? And what the f*ck do I know?
Lately, lately
I'm out of my mind (high, high, high, high)
Oh, I could use a Xanax, maybe that'll fix this
She's like an addiction, something I ain't kickin'
Easy, easy
Am I wasting my time? (High, high, high, high)

Spending all my money just to make you feel pretty
The sky ran out of stars, they're all living in the city
Don't wanna be nameless for life, you wanna be famous? That's fine
Spending all my money just to make you feel pretty

Oh my God, my life is such a mess
Oh my God, I think that I need some rest

She moved in my apartment, now I don't sleep often
Drinking this concoction, have I really lost it?
Maybe, maybe
I'm out of my mind

Spending all my money just to make you feel pretty
The sky ran out of stars, they're all living in the city
Don't wanna be nameless for life, you wanna be famous? That's fine
Spending all my money just to make you feel pretty

Don't wanna be nameless for life, you wanna be famous? That's fine
I'm spending all my money just to make you feel pretty

broken

I like that you're broken
Broken like me
Maybe that makes me a fool
I like that you're lonely
Lonely like me
I could be lonely with you

I met you late night, at a party
Some trust fund baby's Brooklyn loft
By the bathroom, you said let's talk
But my confidence is wearing off

Well these aren't my people
These aren't my friends
She grabbed my face and that's when she said

I like that you're broken
Broken like me
Maybe that makes me a fool
I like that you're lonely
Lonely like me
I could be lonely with you

There's something tragic, but almost pure
Think I could love you, but I'm not sure
There's something wholesome, there's something sweet
Tucked in your eyes that I'd love to meet

These aren't my people
These aren't my friends
She grabbed my face and that's when she said

I like that you're broken
Broken like me
Maybe that makes me a fool
I like that you're lonely
Lonely like me
I could be lonely with you

Life is not a love song that we like
We're all broken pieces floating by
Life is not a love song, we can try
To fix our broken pieces one at a time

I like that you're broken
Broken like me
Maybe that makes me a fool
I like that you're lonely
Lonely like me
I could be lonely with you
I like that you're broken
Broken like me
Maybe that makes me a fool
I like that you're lonely
Lonely like me
I could be lonely with you

alone time

I don't have to feel good
I just wanna feel better
And I would change it if I could, if I could
I'm sick of sadness all together
Oh, I could use a distraction to cope with my life
So thin a little more healthy
See the sun every night
I don't have to feel good
Oh, I just wanna feel better

I've got too much alone time
I could share some with you
I need some kind of sunshine
And the smiles over too
I've got too much alone time
I've got too much alone time
Let me share some with you

I don't have to feel good
I just wanna feel better
And I know I probably should, probably should
Get up and get my life together
Well there are days when this mattress are like an island, no more
Trapped alone in these feelings
Will I ever get off?
I don't have to feel good
Oh, I just wanna feel better

I've got too much alone time
I could share some with you
I need some kind of sunshine
And the smiles over too
I've got too much alone time
I've got too much alone time
Let me share some with you

Take me inside
Take me as I watch
No one will ever love me
I'm alone as they come
Take me inside
Take me as I

these are my friends

These are my friends, these are my friends
I love them, I love them
These are my friends, these are my friends
I love them, I love them

I wish I was a little more loved
Tryna find a way to fix that
So many people inside my head
Momma taught me not to talk back
But they're pretty good company
They cheer me up when I feel bad
Is it my insecurities
That keep me going?

These are my friends, these are my friends
I love them, I love them
These are my friends, these are my friends
I love them
And they don't care who you are
They don't care what you do, no
These are my friends, these are my friends
I love them, I love them

My heart and I don't get along
It's something that I'm sad about
Everybody needs a pick me up
But I should probably slow it down
But it's pretty good company
It cheers me up when I feel bad
These are my insecurities
That keep me going

These are my friends, these are my friends
I love them, I love them
These are my friends, these are my friends
I love them
And they don't care who you are
They don't care what you do, no
These are my friends, these are my friends
I love them, I love them

We are the weirdos
Inflated egos
The filthy misbehave
The ones you dream of
The ones you can't shake
Living in your brain

These are my friends, these are my friends
I love them, I love them
These are my friends, these are my friends
I love them, I love them
And they don't care who you are
They don't care what you do, no
These are my friends, these are my friends
I love them, I love them

coachella

I miss when I saw your face
Drunk in our Sunday's best
All of those chemicals
I snorted right off your chest

Oh that was beautiful
We were young, we were beautiful
Oh that was beautiful
We were young, we were beautiful

In your head it's Coachella every weekend
Free spirits and flowers on your head
I love the way that you laughed with me
I miss the way that you laughed with me
And we sang (oh, ah, oh, ah)
And we sang (oh, ah, oh, ah)

A careless summer and a wild heart
I'm at my best with you by my side
We danced and we lost ourselves
And loved all through the night

Oh that was beautiful
We were young, we were beautiful
Oh that was beautiful
We were young, we were beautiful

In your head it's Coachella every weekend
Free spirits and flowers on your head
I love the way that you laughed with me
I miss the way that you laughed with me
And we sang (oh, ah, oh, ah)
And we sang (oh, ah, oh, ah)

In your head it's Coachella every weekend
Free spirits and flowers on your head
I love the way that you laughed with me
I miss the way that you laughed with me
And we sang (oh, ah, oh, ah)
And we sang (oh, ah, oh, ah)

In your head it's Coachella every weekend

Filling a Void

Well, you're just a band-aid for my loneliness
And I'd say that's the baddest case
I tried not to complain but it's hopeless
'Cause you're stuck up here in my brain
Caught up in my feels now
Thinking back to when I used to make myself proud
She leaves before the sun's up
While I'm dreaming of somebody who I need now

(While I'm dreaming of somebody who I need now)

your whatever

I'm coughing 'cause of your cigarettes
I'll always hate that you smoke
You always smell like a holiday
I'm still in love with you though
It was spring time, you were still mine
Back when I felt whole
I'm coughing 'cause of your cigarettes
I'll always hate that you smoke

I'll be your right now
I'll be your forever
Oh, I'll be your last call
I'll be your whatever

You said you really like Springsteen
And I think that I like that a lot
A flower child of the 70's
At least she thought that she was
She was wild, she was dangerous
In all the best ways
With a heart like that she was never meant to be tamed
A flower child of the 70's
At least she thought that she was

I'll be your right now
I'll be your forever
Oh, I'll be your last call
I'll be your whatever

You're obsessed with the moon and in love with the stars
I'm in love with your soul and everything that you are
You're obsessed with the moon and in love with the stars
I'm in love with your soul and everything that you are

I'll be your right now
I'll be your forever
Oh, I'll be your last call
I'll be your whatever
I'll be your right now
I'll be your forever
Oh, I'll be your last call
I'll be your whatever

maybe im afraid

Dancing in your party dress
You were singing me some Frank Sinatra as you wept
Pull me close enough
It seems like we lost touch so hold me as the record skips

Maybe I'm just too good
Maybe I'll run away
Maybe I'm over you
Maybe I shouldn't stay
Maybe I just don't care
Maybe I talk too much
But baby I'll be there
Yeah, baby I'll be there
It's been a little hard
I've been a little tough
But maybe all along
I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid

Champagne for dinner
I'm swaying from side to side
Too much to think tonight
She said "I hope that we're worth saving
Sometimes you will hate me, but that's alright"

Maybe I'm just too good
Maybe I'll run away
Maybe I'm over you
Maybe I shouldn't stay
Maybe I just don't care
Maybe I talk too much
But baby I'll be there
Yeah, baby I'll be there
It's been a little hard
I've been a little tough
But maybe all along
I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid

Maybe all we are is fools with hearts that tried too hard
And maybe that's just fine as long as you're here in my arms

Dancing in your party dress
You were singing me some Frank Sinatra as you wept

Maybe I'm just too good
Maybe I'll run away
Maybe I'm over you
Maybe I shouldn't stay
Maybe I just don't care
Maybe I talk too much
But baby I'll be there
Yeah, baby I'll be there
It's been a little hard
I've been a little tough
But maybe all along
I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid

I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid

emotion

We can catch up for coffee
And talk about his accent
I'll pretend that I'm fine
But I can't pretend we never met

You'll bring up the distance
How I'm always on my phone
You'll say you lost your patience
How you're better on your own

But you've always been good at that
But you've always been good at that

All I wanted
Was a little emotion
All I wanted
Was a little emotion
Keep rolling your eyes
Your words stuck inside
Behind your teeth
Your feelings can't hide
All I wanted
Was a little emotion

It used to be magic
Now there's bullshit and sadness
I know that I lied
You still insist I never tried

But you've always been good at that
But you've always been good at that

All I wanted
Was a little emotion
All I wanted
Was a little emotion
Keep rolling your eyes
Your words stuck inside
Behind your teeth
Your feelings can't hide
All I wanted
Was a little emotion

All I wanted
Was a little emotion
All I wanted
Was a little emotion
Keep rolling your eyes
Your words stuck inside
Behind your teeth
Your feelings can't hide
All I wanted

walk from here

I wish that I know how to hate you
Or maybe not to give a damn
How do you make leaving graceful
I'm giving up the best I can

I might be no good
Sweetie you're no better
We used to be sugar and now all I taste is bitter
I might be no good
Sweetie you're no better
Sweetie you're no better

I thought you'd be the one to save me
Honey, you're not worth the tears
There's no need to drive me crazy
Honey, I can walk from here

I wish that I knew how to say this
Cutting up the lines we blurred
The space in between love and friendship
It's beautiful until it hurts

I thought you'd be the one to save me
Honey, you're not worth the tears
There's no need to drive me crazy
Honey, I can walk from here

I might be no good
Sweetie you're no better
We used to be sugar and now all I taste is bitter
I might be no good
Sweetie you're no better
Sweetie you're no better

I thought you'd be the one to save me
Honey, you're not worth the tears
There's no need to drive me crazy
Honey, I can walk from here

stupid mistakes

I called you with a few too many drinks in me
Well, at least you didn't answer
Woke up, prayed to God it was only a dream
Well, at least I took my chances

You said you never wanted to speak again
I was never one to listen
And it's fine, just wish you'd get out of my head
Well, you never did

My brain holds too many poisons
They helped me make the wrong choices

We all make stupid mistakes sometimes
But I make them more than most
And it's my fault that I live my life
Running away from ghosts
Too many skeletons
Too hard to keep them in the closet where they've been
We all make stupid mistakes sometimes
You're the one that I miss the most

I saw that a text I sent was left unread
Well, I guess I get the message
I lied when I said I really loved your friends
Well, I never did

My brain holds too many poisons
They helped me make the wrong choices

We all make stupid mistakes sometimes
But I make them more than most
And it's my fault that I live my life
Running away from ghosts
Too many skeletons
Too hard to keep them in the closet where they've been
We all make stupid mistakes sometimes
You're the one that I miss the most

My brain holds too many poisons
They helped me make the wrong choices

We all make stupid mistakes sometimes
But I make them more than most
And it's my fault that I live my life
Running away from ghosts
Too many skeletons
Too hard to keep them in the closet where they've been
We all make stupid mistakes sometimes
You're the one that I miss the most

make believe

Talking to yourself, you'll make believe
Filling up a void eight days a week
Wanna get to know you
Wanna get to know you

At the diner
You looked finer than a set of china that my mama don't use
I looked helpless, you looked selfish
But you liked Elvis so I thought you were cool

I like honesty and self respect
But you spell rent "P-A-R-E-N-T-S"

Talking to yourself, you'll make believe
Filling up a void eight days a week
Wanna get to know you
Wanna get to know you
We could make some plans, tell me you're free
Aren't you getting tired of woe is me
Trying to get to know you
Trying to get to know you

Always talking, so deflated
You make plans but you never come through
You say you're busy, but you miss me
I'll here waiting around like a fool

I've got patience and persistance
But you spell love "F-R-I-E-N-D-S"

Talking to yourself, you'll make believe
Filling up a void eight days a week
Wanna get to know you
Wanna get to know you
We could make some plans, tell me you're free
Aren't you getting tired of woe is me
Trying to get to know you
Trying to get to know you

Girl, you know I'd give the world to you
But you can't even open up to me
Played my part on your TV screen
Your made up movie, make believe
All I wanted was to see what happened
And you're still

Talking to yourself, you'll make believe
Filling up a void eight days a week
Wanna get to know you
Wanna get to know you
We could make some plans, tell me you're free
Aren't you getting tired of woe is me
Trying to get to know you
Trying to get to know you

i like the way

I had dreams, you're a nightmare
But I loved it, no one else compares
You seem cool, I seem anxious
I am a fool, I won't get over this

We're both not well but it feels right
As far as I can tell
Your crazy matches mine

Oh I like the way you mess with my heart
Baby, I like the way it hurts
Oh I like the things we do in the dark
Baby, I like the way it hurts
Oh I like way it hurts
Oh I like way it hurts

I had plans, you had options
I've got issues, you are all of them
You seem nice, I seem confident
I am a fool, I won't get over this

We're both not well but it feels right
As far as I can tell
Your crazy matches mine

Oh I like the way you mess with my heart

Everything I Could Never Say... to You

I got swept up in your storm
You were a hurricane I wasn't ready for
Maybe we could work one day
I hope that we could work one day
You tried to find me in someone else
Are you lost, have you found yourself
Will I ever get over you
I hope I never get over you

At least I can say we tried
But your heart seems so tired

Oh, this is everything, everything I could never say
Everything, everything I could never say to you
This is everything, everything I could never say
Everything, everything I could never say to you
It's on the tip of my tongue, I can taste it
Of all before it began, love is wasted
Everything, everything I could never say
Everything, everything I could never say to you

I thought that I meant more to you
Turns out I had things to lose
Maybe I will learn one day
I hope that I will learn one day
You built me up to break me down
I find it hard to smile now
Will I ever get over you
I'll probably never get over you

At least I can say we tried
But your heart seems so tired

Oh, this is everything, everything I could never say
Everything, everything I could never say to you
Oh, this is everything, everything I could never say
Everything, everything I could never say to you
It's on the tip of my tongue, I can taste it
Of all before it began, love is wasted
Everything, everything I could never say
Everything, everything I could never say to you

Oh, this is everything, everything I could never say
Everything, everything I could never say to you
This is everything, everything I could never say
Everything, everything I could never say to you
It's on the tip of my tongue, I can taste it
Of all before it began, love is wasted
Everything, everything I could never say
Everything, everything I could never say to you
