I wish I fell in love you when I was 12
Run away from home
Find places to roam
Pack all the nonsense that only comforts me
My parents worry
We’re in a hurry
Go, go, go
I can’t believe that people actually care
We thought they didn’t
We thought they wouldn’t
I guess its best if we find an island
Dance to old records, songs you’ve never heard
Dance
This is what it’d be like if you fell in love with me at 12
It’d be so adventurous, we could get married as well
I’m glad not that many people understand me
Yeah so I’m different
It’s irrelevant
Not even you get why I do the things I do
Youre willing to learn
So now its my turn
Yeah
If everyone decides to give up on you
You’ll know its not true
While they have no clue
Cause I will vow myself to you until I die
Who cares if we’re young
Don’t mind getting stung
By love

Social Superstar

Back then we were living for the hell of it
Now we’re trying to stay relevant
Our egos are so delicate, yeah
Go out to get a decent photo
Just to let everybody know
You like your life when you don’t, yeah
I know you’re probably getting tired
You’re probably getting tired, it’s true
When everybody seems so happy
Everybody seems so happy but you
Young girl keep swiping through your filters
‘Cause your beauty is what built you
But vanity’s what kills you, yeah
I know it probably feels real
But the images you steal
Don’t tell me how you really feel
I know you’re probably getting tired
You’re probably getting tired, it’s true
When everybody seems so happy
Everybody seems so happy but you
Social superstar
You don’t know who you are
Smile for the camera
The more you use your phone
The more you feel alone
They all wanna see ya
Back then we were living for the hell of it
Now we’re trying to stay relevant
Our egos are so delicate, yeah

Great
03:18

I want my check
My wallet’s down to two dollars
Oh dear, its time to ask father
No, I need to stand my ground
I just won’t buy anything cute around
But I wanna feel capable
Money’s not the issue
It’s just sad, I can’t even buy tissues
Forget this, I’ll find my own
Way to not budge
Tap, tap, nudge, nudge
GREAT
Another day where, I just can’t wait
It’s too LATE
My mind is set, my day is wreck
I got another better to do
Than complain about the little things I do
My room so gross
I mean, dear, what a clutter
I did’t know
That this would be such a bother
Mom, don’t worry I’m 24
I swear, I can do this
I swear I can do more
Wait no, are any of you a maid?
But first hang on, I’m waiting for that check, gotta get paid
See this is my problem
I keep falling back
Just thinking I’m such a sap.
You see, I’m young enough
That everything just seems so tough
You know, this is never ending
Instead of time with people, its more cash that I’m spending
You think, that I need to get it together
Remind myself daily, that I can do better
Well, you’re not me
Let me complain about the things that I do see

Clyde
02:35
|
|||
|
You told me take him to the ground
I pulled the trigger and he went down
And away we ran
Money in our hands
The tv screams for our arrest
The people shout we're dangerous
But we just laugh
Oh it's such a gas
But oh, I know
We made our bed and we're gonna lie
Oh, I know
We sold our soul and we'll pay the price
But that's fine
Cuz as long as you are my man
I'm your getaway ride
You are my Clyde
You told me grab the goods and run
We drove into the setting sun
We'll change our name
All fun and games
The sirens flash their red and blue
You hit the gas away we flew
Going 105
Feeling so alive
But oh, I know
We made our bed and we're gonna lie
Oh, I know
We sold our soul and we'll pay the price
But that's fine
Cuz as long as you are my man
I'm your getaway ride
You are my Clyde
They yelled out take em to the ground
They pulled the trigger and we went down
Knew this would come
The best die young
Don't worry love just close your eyes
Come on put your hand in mind
And take a bow
We're legends now
But oh, I know
We made our bed and it's time to lie
Oh, I know
We sold our soul and we'll pay the price
But that's fine
Cuz if you're going down well then
I'm going down by your side
You were my Clyde

Love Me Now
02:42
|
|||
|
Love me now
Hold on tight don't look down
Keep my feet on the ground
You might lose what we've found
With your head on the clouds
Stretched too thin we might break
That's a chance we'll have to take
The comfort of what you know
Could you let all that go?
Time won't make it easier
What I'm trying to say is
If I didn't have you, I wouldn't know what to do oooo
But I think we have to try to see this through oooo
Is it worth it all to risk it all
I'll fall first, I'll break your fall
Might miss us then if we go down but don't miss the chance to love me now
Love me now
Love me now
Trapped by fears of the unknown
Following a path yet to be shown
Take it one brick at a time
Building castles in our minds
Trust in me like I trust you
Believe the things that we could do
The comfort of what you know
Could you let all that go?
Time won't make it easier
What I'm trying to say is
If I didn't have you, I wouldn't know what to do oooo
But I think we have to try to see this through oooo
Is it worth it all to risk it all
I'll fall first I'll break you're fall
Might miss us then if we go down
But don't miss the chance to love me now
Love me now
Love me now
Put your hand in my hand, the world is ours now

Fell Through
03:07
|
|||
|
A broken record, destined to repeat
Stuck out of place and missing the beat
The frequencies are clear to see
That you were not meant for me
Cuz you wanted me and I wanted you but it's all over now
Oh cuz you had me and I had you
Some things just fall through
Was it you?
Or was it me?
Was it you?
Was it you or was it me were we meant to be?
Or was it me?
Was it something I said I'm not sure what you really mean?
I don't see why I don't know why I'm sticking around
I don't need you I don't want to see all of this go down
We're not meant to be
We're not meant to be
Cuz you wanted me and I wanted you but it's all over now
Oh cuz you had me and I had you
Some things just fall through
They just fall through
They just fall through
They just fall through
It just fell through

Last Man
04:11
|
|||
|
If you were the last man on earth
I would let the women have you
I’m fine alone,
I’ve got the comfort of my home
If we were the last people on earth
I would still question my values
You’re incredibly mean
As cold as a broken machine
Why oh why god
Leave me with this man
Why oh why not
Give me a whole different plan
I don’t need this
I don’t want
Someone crude,
He needs to get lost
But I don’t wanna lose him
If he’s all that I got
If I was the last woman on earth
I would be no different
Strong, smart and clever
Can handle just about whatever
If we were the last people on earth
We'd both drive each other insane
Opposites can attract, but also cause each other pain
And even though you’re not the last man to stand
I’m still letting you win after all that I planned
Is something wrong with me, where’s my common sense
I don’t need you to be a new experience
Is he all that I got?
I hope not.

Distance
02:11
|
|||
|
The sleepless nights
The maybe or mights
Distance is so stupid
The weakened eyes
The hardest goodbyes
Distances is so stupid
And I just wanna see you now
And I’d fly to you if I just knew how
Feeling alone
Sleeping next to the phone
Distance is so stupid
My racing mind
Slowing down the time
Distance is so stupid
And I just wanna hold you now
Oh why can’t we live in the same town
The misunderstood
Wishing how we could
Get rid of our space
Your words feel right
But they can’t hold me tight
Want to be face to face
And I just wanna hear you now
As if we were laying down
The sleepless night
The maybe or mights
Distance is so stupid
On the plane with heartache
Leaving was a mistake

We Had Love
03:22
|
|||
|
But I know that at one time we had love
When you heard my sad song, thought I was enough
But I find it kind of funny
What brought you near me is what has you running
But I know that at one time we had love
I had it all in my hands
You’re everything that I wanted
I let it slip and yeah I know
That at one time we were good
There were days when we had everything we should
But the reasons that you held me
Were the reasons I felt empty
But I know there were days when we were good
Running out of things I can say
Just to make you stay
You’re leaving still and yeah I know
That at one time you were mine
I remember days long ago when things were fine
But the sun that rose for us faded to night
But I know that at one time you were mine
Oh I know that at one time we had love
When you heard all my sad songs, thought I was enough
But I find it kinda of funny
What brought you near me is what has you running
But I know that at one time we had love
I think that we had love
Back then I think that we were in love

Hold On
02:56
|
|||
|
Don't let the fear consume you I see it in your eyes.
Pain and sorrow no tomorrow you're blinded by the light
Where you go the clouds will follow theres darkness in the sky
The setting sun has just begun
As the daylight dies
Cuz it's dark over on the other side
And all you really wanna do is hide
Hold on hold on hold on hold on
Anxious thoughts fill your mind confusing what is real
Lightning thunder going under the ground you cannot feel
Sinking in these thoughts you're thinking
Reaching out for land
The setting sun turns to none
Please take my hand
Cuz it's dark over on the other side
And all you really wanna do is hide
Hold on....
Hold on hold on
"Don't give up just look up. I'm over thinking overthinking
such harmful thoughts creeping harmful thoughts creeping
You gotta hold on
The fear will consume you
Just hold on

Universe
02:45
|

|
I think we were made from the same dust
When the universe first blew up
I think what the galaxy gave us
Are the same stars running through our blood
How else could you
How else could you explain
You are the only one who gets my brain
I think we were made from the same dust
When the universe first blew up
I think at the dawn of all time
Someone decided that you should be mine
I think it’s been planned for billions of years
Written in books long before we were here
How else could you
How else could you explain
You are the only one who gets my brain
How else could you
How else could you explain
How else could you
How else could you explain
You are the only one who gets my brain
How else could you
How else could you explain
You are the only one who gets my brain

Quietest Hours
04:05
|
|||
|
Over and high over and high
Down below
The wind and the rain are calling my name again
Remembering what came before and knowing how it ends
Light casts silhouettes in this dark and empty room
I feel your presence for a moment, but it's gone too soon
Oh in the quietest hours I still think of you
And in my darkest hours, I'm brought back to you
I am feeling weakened and I'm so consumed
The dawn of the day when you left me here to stay
My heart filled with faults and the words that I meant to say
The passing of another year oh how I wish that you were here
In the memories is how I will keep you near
Oh in the quietest hours, I still think of you
And in the darkest hours, I'm brought back to you
I am feeling weakened and I'm so consumed and I'm so consumed
And I'm so consumed
In the quietest hours I still think of you
In my darkest moments I know what is true
I know that you'll always be in my memory
You showed how I can spark in this building heart
You proved that I can be someone cuz you still live through everyone
In the quietest hours, I still think of you

Looking For Dodos
04:30
|
|||
|
I’m asking myself
Will I scare them
Once they know
They’ve got me like whoa
Wish time was so slow
So I could take in every word spoken
Feel connected, fixing the broken
While moving their bones
I’m looking for dodos
I’m searching for something that wouldn't exist
I’m trying to explain to people
That these creatures are surely a gift
I’m looking for dodos
Cause they seem to understand how I feel
Their feet alone, makes a beat that’s so unreal
I’m looking for dodos
Looking for
Hunting for
Doing anything for dodos
Looking for
Looking for dodos
It’s so amazing
What I have seen
Their capabilities
It’s so moving
I wish they knew
Every sound
Quite or loud
It’s so thrilling
Gives me space
In a crowded place
It’s so chilling
I know what I want to see
Creatures who inspire humans to be free
I know what I want to be remembered for
Motivating while capturing the ones I adore
But will they believe
And they're so kind
Always stuck in my mind
All the words that was said
Always constantly stuck in my head
I just don't know why
Oh why
The neighbors watch these birds get thrown in the fire
By all these bearded nerds
Take me in
Suck me in
The tide
I’ll come out alive
