You must be somebody special
The whole world at your feet
I’m running constantly
You’re the killer of my dreams
You know you must be
Somebody special
Somebody special to me
You know you must be
Somebody special
Somebody special to me
You must be lost in your castle
They’re throwing petals at your feet
Assume your fate at the threshold
You’re the killer of my dreams
You know you must be
Somebody special
Somebody special to me
You know you must be
Somebody special
Somebody special to me

Summer in the Everglades
Skinned knees on rollerblades
It’s nice to get some air
So far away from there
So far from there
You get to know this place
Way out here without a trace
The trees turn into your friends
They’ll all say hi again
Hello, again
Save yourself for another day
Kill the pain that gets in the way
Fuck the ones who don’t want to stay
‘Cause I don’t wanna die for anyone but me
My mind plays tricks on me
Shadows of jealousy
Ambers of our quiet dreams
Turn to flames of deafening screams
There’s nothing to live for without you
Or so it seems
Save yourself for another day
Kill the pain that gets in the way
Fuck the ones who don’t want to stay
‘Cause I don’t wanna die for anyone but me
We are nothing but the stars above

She Nods
03:45
|

Baby’s got a broken wing
Sounds just like she’s crooning when she sings
Age is just a number in my dreams
Wonder how she’ll sound in the spring
God, she loves the songs that I play
My CD-R will surely make her stay
She agrees with everything that I say
‘Cause she nods, yeah
All her words are landing on deaf ears
I’m realizing all of her worst fears
When she cries I’m bathing in her tears
I’ve got her brain in formaldehyde for years
God, she loves the songs that I play
My CD-R will surely make her stay
She agrees with everything that I say
‘Cause she nods, yeah

Curse
02:40

Is it really a surprise to me
That they’re taking you seriously?
I always had the very best seats
Now they’re calling you off of the streets
Your face is now a sharpened jaw
All these women are in shock and awe
That such a nice guy
Could be so unrefined
It’s like an ancient dug up curse
Is what you leave will be what’s worse?
I don’t care
There’s no one out in the upper lot
For us to be seen or caught
I’ve been hoarding all of your tapes again
I know you’ve got a slot at 10
I’ll be waiting with my work in tow
Knowing how these conversations tend to go
Your eyes don’t read “I’m fine”
But I can’t stop thinking of you as mine
Just for now
It’s like an ancient dug up curse
Is what you leave will be what’s worse?
I don’t care

Misery Loves Company
02:12
|

Glamorous and beautiful
With dirt under her fingernails
Cautiously optimistic
But sneering at the lens
I spend a morning lying
And staring at the ceiling
Feeling sad that I’m not shiny
Well, not a pretty kind of sad
Misery loves company
And I’m the CEO
I’d rather hit rock bottom in my bathroom
Than on the radio
The thirst I seem to lust after
Is never satisfied
Depraved and unafraid
We’re human husks of capital
Since when did I become a figment of
A faded ellipses
One day I’ll get all better
And they’ll never expect me…
Misery loves company
And I’m the CEO
I’d rather hit rock bottom in my bathroom
Than on the radio

Sugar Rush
03:10

Up on your rooftop
Able to jump
You’re counting planets
I’m feeling a lump
You sounded ready
I can’t help but try
To hold back words that
You may not like
A sugar rush and super nova light
Is blurring my hindsight
But love is something that you can’t quantify
I’m not ready for goodbyes
My mind is hazy
A set in a cage
The lights are burning
For minimum wage
The devil greets me
We get along fine
A girl can dream of
What should be mine
A sugar rush and super nova light
Is blurring my hindsight
But love is something that you can’t quantify
I’m not ready for goodbyes
