The Do-Over

Let’s jump the fence
It’s the vow exchange, why can’t you just say
I know you’re gunshy with me but I’ve seen you dazzle
Why can’t you believe I’d wait an eternity
I know you’re gunshy with me but I’ve seen you dazzle
Let’s smash them into bits in matching outfits
I know he’s not the one but the ceremony is almost done
Why can’t you just say I’d wait an eternity
With a scratchy throat, I’ll share my feelings with you
Please don’t come undone
I know she’s smiling but will she forgive me
In a pathetic voice, I’ll share my feelings with you
With a scratchy throat, I’ll share my feelings with you
I know you’re gunshy with me but I’ve seen you dazzle them

Vanity/Losing

We used to take everything to heart
We used to be club kids, we used to be nothing
Will you ever forgetI still owe you half the rent
The creative math I found will show how I let you down
As I enter my descent, I know I’ll soon forget
I never reach the fence, I know I’ll soon forget
It’s unstoppable, I got your laser eyes on me
I never know why I take your blows
Who will you be when you see me crumbling
Do you have it all mapped out
How am I even standing, disintegrating
Will you put me away, will you split me through
I’m trapped in this tiny room but I’m only homesick for you
The last chapter goes faster

Ricochet

Why do you have to pretend to stab me in the back
Why do you have to beat me at the one thing I’m good at
Let’s put a label on us so we know what we were destroying all this time
Maybe it will ricochet, I swear it’s not just another line
Are you mine or am I yours, will you let my hand go
Your bravado is so hard to follow
You know I don’t like answering the door
Is everything just a game to you
Do you want to settle down
I’m melting but what for, I don’t get the metaphor
You have one foot out the door

Halfway Crooks

I've been dreading the next part
I know you’re caught between
I know your revery, I know your apathy
When I come home I wonder who you’ll be
Are we halfway crooks, sugarcoat my looks
How can you be free when you’re only half the things
You have one foot out the door
We could have been so much more
You have one foot out the door
I know we aren’t cool anymore
Your elastic heart in your little kingdom
Never there, never tears, never seems to care
Why do I come back for more
It’s the way you move me
