months of desperate times call for months of desperate measures
any circumstances take vacations just for your own pleasure
i saw what was happening through the window in my mind
i want to see what the others see if you feel so inclined to
show me not tell me but what do i have to show
i can’t even figure out how to control where a piece of plastic goes
i should get over myself
i should get over myself
i should get over myself
i should get over myself
long enough to look at everybody else
my consciousness is in the corner shelf
and i conclude that when i conclude what i was gonna say
that doesn’t make it okay
that doesn’t make it okay
and when the fog clears i’ll be purposely vague
so i can assign meaning to anything i say
and what’s my deal
and what’s my deal
tell me who i am
help me understand
that all of my self worth
comes from other people
i should probably do something about that
seeing as all its done is bring me down
but i’m not worthless
i’m not worthless
i’m not worthless
at least not yet

Wearing the newspaper
Black and white and red in the face
As I try to explain
I try to explain
And when saturday night concedes to sunday morning
I will put down my headaches and eat my feelings
andl think of new exciting ways to not be lived through
I don’t stop for crosswalks but I’ll press the button twice
Just to make sure that I won’t die
I don’t stop for crosswalks but I’ll press the button twice
Just to make sure that I won’t die
But at your place is not the place to be
When all we want is to be able to see
A window into our other lives
A thing about our other lives
When sunday has nothing to offer me
Except the thought of starting a new week
I will think of new and exciting ways to wait and see
How I’ll be
How I’ll be
When I’m capable of being confident
How I’ll be
How I’ll be
When I’m capable of being confident
How I’ll be
I don’t stop for crosswalks but I’ll press the button twice
Just to make sure that I won’t die
I don’t stop for crosswalks but I’ll press the button twice
Just to make sure that I won’t die
But it’s too hot out to comprehend
The way I feel so I’ll pretend
That I’m somebody interesting
That I’m somebody interesting
When the week has something for me to do
To wonder what it’s like to lose you
And do nothing about it after the first few days

we’re selling our memories
to some kind of entity
for the hope that they would remain intact and entertained
in talking about you
it’s not my intent
but i’ve started romanticizing you again
go back to a rain soaked easter sunday
with your face looking bleak and empty as you
stumble to find the address to make some progress to escape to another world
go back to a rain soaked easter sunday
with your face looking bleak and empty as you
stumble to find the address to make some progress to escape to another world
no it’s not
whatever i meant
has been lost in a tide of objection and regret
objection and regret
no it’s not
whatever i meant
has been lost in a tide of objection and regret
objection and regret
i feel like the hair could come clean right off my head
as quickly as any pain that decides to stab it’s way through my chest
take special notice of the cold spot over my heart
putting on an act cause i don’t know how to start
explaining to you how i come up with it
on that rain soaked easter sunday
with your face looking bleak and empty as you
stumble to find the address to make some progress to escape to another world
go back to a rain soaked easter sunday
with your face looking bleak and empty as you
stumble to find the address to make some progress to escape to another world

Sad Songs

I’m so sick of writing sad songs
But what else can I do
Change the way I view my life or
Change the way that I view you
It’s almost like some kind of cycle
Can’t figure it out at all
Might be because of rose-tinted glasses but dear god I miss the fall
When you think about it since then
So many things have changed
For the better
For the better
But I thought it’d stay the same
Why’d I think it’d stay the same
I’m glad it didn’t stay the same
And maybe I will never be the same
Again
Why’d I think it’d stay the same
I’m glad it didn’t stay the same
And maybe I will never be the same
Again
I don’t feel like anything
I don’t feel like anything at all
It’s pointless to
It’s pointless to talk
It’s pointless to open my mouth
I’m so sick of writing sad songs
I’m so sick of writing sad songs
I’m so sick of writing sad songs
I’m so sick of writing sad songs
I’m so sick of writing sad songs
I’m so sick of writing sad songs
I’m so sick of writing sad songs
But what else can I do
I can’t do anything
Because I can’t stop feeling this way
