My headphones make me sick and You throw up a new sign You stop me in my tracks and Make sure my teeth align I wanna write your favourite song And if I don’t I might as well have not done anything at all And I really don’t care it’s alright with me Everything is built how it’s supposed to be And anarchy means I don’t have to do chores! I really don’t care It’s alright with me Everything is built how it’s supposed to be And anarchy means I don’t have to do chores! Oh no no nothing scares me Nothing not you not you Except for guys in airports with beards and skill tattoos Or being stuck without you I need you to come home Because because without you I feel too set in stone But I really don’t care It’s alright with me Everything is built how it’s supposed to be And anarchy means I don’t have to do chores! I really don’t care It’s alright with me Everything is built how it’s supposed to be And anarchy means I don’t have to do chores! And if she can’t be somebody that you love I can be somebody that you love And if she can’t be somebody that you love I can be the one

Pt. 1 Ceaseless neverending complaint department, speak! I’m a stupid animal but I still need to sleep and I’m calling on you Cause I thought the music was going to eat me alive But I could write an album about it so maybe it’s worth a try I’m coming to the realization I’ve come to understand That a lot of these punk kids are a lot more messed up than I am (Or at least they say they are) Pt. 2 I believe that you invented that to suit your own needs I believe that she’ll be tumbling down the mountain when she leaves I believe in the shoelace necklace tied around my neck And I believe in you leaving and never coming back

i’m strewing my effects all over my lawn and waiting for the next train to come so i’d go to the arctic walk into the snow lie there and wait in the freezing cold leave me for the polar bears i know they need more than what they have and i know i don’t i would gladly give myself to you if that was what you wanted me to do since when has mother nature been kind to you nurturing nurturing helping you through letting you up to see the sun but from your house you can’t see the moon ive cut the connection the connection is gone but excess always made me want to turn to stone I wanna hurt him and hurt him alone cause i’ve got by on the kindness of friends for too long leave me for the vultures they’re old family friends the eternal sword swallower offers me his land and i hit the roof and i go out on the town and i wish i was braver i wish i was loud since when has mother nature been kind to me nurturing nurturing helping me see letting me up to see the sun but the moon’s never really believed in me i am the leviathan struggling to breathe the whale underwater drowning in its own sea of metaphors: fuck off you don’t mean a thing my mind and body simply don’t belong to me vomit a rainbow into the sink write a chord chart out in invisible ink i just want the song to stop but it just keeps going on oh do you like me now? (now i know what you talk about)

Memorize Me 03:43
I missed the first snow of the year in 2021 I was in a different province getting nothing real done You were right and I was wrong And I don’t like being wrong But I wish that you would stop scrubbing the mold off of my arms Did you memorize me, did you know? Over the summer I did not transform into who I want to be I just sat back and let the two months wash right over me It’s too hot to ever get up It’s just funny cause it’s not Did you memorize me, did you know?
