Static Head- Acoustic

We hid,
In the bathtub,
Like the old nights,
Your sacrifice
Weed out,
Most mentions,
It’s getting late now,
You burnt down your house
Wasted,
In your parent’s bed,
Alone with just the static
It went to your head
Warm front
You’re thawed out
For the first time
You slept on the couch
Why can’t you be more patient? [4x]

Homesick

I don’t wanna love you anymore
I don’t believe in secrets
I’m not gonna listen anymore
Nothing you can do to keep me
I don’t wanna know where you’ve been
I’m tired of giving my shits
I don’t even wanna fly
You’ve clipped my wings for good
There’s a poison polluting the air
I couldn’t forget what I’ve learned
Run through the relics
My brother, you’ve grown toxic
You’ll turn to dust
With or without you, I’ll sing
You’ll turn to dust
With or without you, I’m gonna sing
I’m not gonna cry here anymore
Not in front of you
There’s a ghost town in my heart
And I’m afraid you’ll get to know me
Wasn’t really worth it anymore
There’s just too much to risk
I’m not gonna stay here anymore
Even though it’s not what I promised
There’s a poison polluting the air
I couldn’t forget what I’ve learned
Run through the relics
My brother, you’ve grown toxic
You’ll turn to dust
With or without you, I’ll sing
You’ll turn to dust
With or without you, I’m gonna sing
For once, just breathe
And let it take you
You said “I’m homesick”
Yeah man, I bet that’s it
For once, just breathe
And let it take you
For once, just breathe
And let it take you
You’ll turn to dust
With or without you, I’ll sing
You’ll turn to dust
With or without you, I’m gonna sing

Twice a Day
02:25
|

I stop myself at least twice a day
But you'll never get anywhere that way
I've written an email and signed it as mine
Cause my family told me to for the fourteenth time
And I've been tired for nineteen weeks
I make up plans so I don't have to speak
To people who know me or all of my friends
All my messages are short and I miss them
This was supposed to have a very pretty chorus
With a set of lines that was damn near poignant
But I can't bring myself to wordplay
But I promise that I'll wake up tomorrow and do it the next day
I want to be a famous guy
But I wanted to make time machines when I was five
And that didn't pan out cause I didn't know jack
And I still don't know jack but it's just about music now

Sex is Softer
02:50

Why can't you kiss more often
Why can't your sex be softer
Why do you have to see each-other like this
Have to have those needs
Why can't you hold more often
Why can't your sex be softer
Why do we have to see eachother like this
Have to have those needs
I'm a ne'er-do-well I don't do to well
With crowds or loud noises
With people and their voices
Why can't you all be better
Why can't your sex be softer
Why do we have to see eachother like this
Have to have these needs
Why can't we kiss more often
Why can't our sex be softer
Why do we have to crawl around down here
We fight and scratch and wheeze
Unable to breathe
I'm a ne'er-do-well I don't do to well
With crowds or loud noises
With people and their voices
Sex is softer
Sex be softer
Now get down on your knees

New York (Revisisted)
06:28
|
|||
We sat on the porch and talked like New York and how all of your dreams came true
You pushed on about cars and how fast all of yours are and the house you’re living in
And that’s only one because you say you have ten and from there you see everything
I know you’re drifting off
Just long enough to spoil yourself
And you’ll feel a breeze and make light of t.v. and the drones that killed your dad
And the news is weak at the sight of the siege and the anchor’s falling asleep
Your pantry is stacked with snacks from Japan and you always bought me designer magnets
You filled your lobby and called it a party and never had patience again
And I want to know what made you let go and put all your temperance to rest
I know you’re drifting off
Just long enough to spoil yourself
And you’ll feel a breeze and make light of t.v. and the drones that killed your dad
And the news is weak at the sight of the siege and the anchor’s falling asleep
Maple is blooming back in the fields, I thought it’d make you smile
Instead you sneak out in a baby blue corvette, you had to see all for yourself
In the middle of the night and your two headlights, the officer involved said they weren't all that bright
I know you’re drifting off
Just long enough to spoil yourself
And you’ll feel a breeze and make light of t.v. and the drones that killed your dad
And the news is weak at the sight of the siege and the anchor’s falling asleep
No smoking inside and a month has gone by and I just feel weaker in time
The porch has burnt down and I moved from my county, adopted a piece of highway
And Disney's not lost and nothing is over, so I like how it feels, how it feels all over
