Last time I checked we were all gonna die
At least I get to burn out by your side
Someone kick the tires
You know it doesn’t add up
I’m always tired
Even though I’m sleeping enough
Feeling inspired
These days I’m trying new drugs
Just want to lie here with you
Scared of your love
Your two bent knees support my head
Call it the modern-day lap of luxury
I’ll put paint to canvas
At the cost of next week's groceries
That small space once filled with hate
Replaced with desire to create
The crushing weight of conscious states
Around you momentarily abates
And I’ll be happy if it kills me
Tape glow-in-the-dark stars on the ceiling
Steal tiny glances while you’re reading
And make the best of something fleeting
And I’ll be happy if it kills me
And I’ll be happy if it kills me
And I’ll be happy if it kills me
And I’ll be happy if it kills me
And I’ll be happy if it kills me
And I’ll be happy if it kills me
And I’ll be happy if it kills me
And I’ll be happy if it kills me

I see your eyes my friend
Longing for what you viewed
Something you can’t pursue
Don’t touch my fries again
I don’t know where your hands have been
Go get your own, leave me alone
To eat in solitude

Lately I’ve been losing sleep
Thinking about how the world should be
When the world is telling me
That waking up is what I really need
But waking up’s hard, trying is hard
Caring is hard when you feel this down
Breaking out of my routine
Seemed like an impossibility
But I could feel the world ending
So now it’s time to come out of hiding
I should try to join other people
With ideas that don’t involve my own needs
Life exists outside of my never-ending
Self-obsessive mission
I’ve got a lot to do
I’m changing my point of view
I’ve got a lot to learn
I’ve got nothing to lose
I’m waking up as you
I’m changing my point of view
My hateful side would rather
Just turn off the lights
But my wasted life
Might find a better use outside
Lately I’ve been planning things
That benefit someone besides just me
At least that’s what I’m home dreaming
When I’m writing songs nobody needs
But changing is hard
Growing is hard
Living is hard
When you’re inside yourself

Little raccoon eyes staring at me
From the edge of the tree line
Outside your old friend’s house
Where we got drunk, and practiced archery
Cigarette circle of houseguests talking
In the backyard on broken concrete
I clung to you like a little kid
I fell in love with you on your birthday
That night honestly means so much to me
Some things balance out the suffering
Didn’t write love songs
Until I met you
I think I knew how
Just didn’t want to
Didn’t write love songs
Until I met you
I think I knew how
Just didn’t want to
That night honestly means so much to me
Some things balance out the suffering

Avec Plaisir - Jet Lag

Stuck inside of a cereal box
In a haze I have gotten lost again
Jet lagged but I don't understand
Why I'm feeling like this
Stuck inside of a cereal box
In a haze I have gotten lost again
Fingers covered in glaze
The sweetness starting to fade
Collecting thoughts as they come back to
Jet lagged
Adrift in
A daydream
I’m feeling
My vision
It's clouding
Jet lagged
Adrift in
A daydream
I’m feeling
My vision
It's clouding
In a haze I feel like I’ve gotten lost again
Fingers covered in glaze again
The sweetness starting to fade again
In a haze I feel like I’ve gotten lost again
Fingers covered in glaze again
The sweetness starting to fade again

The feeling’s gone away
The regrets and the shame
Will vanish someday
Will the memories remain?
There's a place I can go to
When I don’t want to
Think about you
I feel safe distracted from you
By the emptiness I come home to
The feeling’s gone away
The regrets and the shame
Will vanish someday
Will the memories remain?
I’ll erase them with
Self-improvement someday
But I won’t let you hang around
Like a destructive cloud
I’m trying to live without
I hate to remember now
The way that you brought me down
And left me down
The feeling’s gone away
The regrets and the shame
Will vanish someday
The feeling’s gone away
The regrets and the shame
Will vanish someday
Will the memories remain?
I’ll erase them with
Self-improvement someday
