I’M GONNA TELL YOU, YOU’LL LIKE ME
SO MAYBE YOU CAN FINALLY SEE
I’M MORE THAN A MOUTH I AM A BODY
AND I’M NOT JUST YOUR BLOWJOB DREAM
COME OVER, COME OVER LATE NIGHT CALLER
I’M NOT A HOTLINE I AM SOMETHING
NOT SURE YOU KNOW ME AS SOMETHING OTHER
THEN BEING JUST YOUR FANTASY
YOU CAN TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT
I WON’T REACH FOR YOUR HEART
I JUST WANNA KNOW WHERE TO START
AND AFTER YOU LEAVE YOU’LL FEEL NOTHING FOR ME
BUT WHEN YOU NEED ME, I’LL BE IN YOUR DREAMS
COME OVER, COME OVER LATE NIGHT CALLER
I’M NOT A HOTLINE I AM SOMETHING
NOT SURE YOU KNOW ME AS SOMETHING OTHER
THEN BEING JUST YOUR FANTASY
DON’T WANNA KNOW WHO YOU ARE
NOT YOUR BACKSEAT STAR
THERE’S MORE TO THIS THEN YOU LET ON
WHAT IS IT THAT YOU FEEL, ARE YOUR EMOTIONS REAL?
YOU CAN’T COME BACK TO MINE THAT VOID I CAN’T HEAL
YOU THINK I’M WHAT YOU NEED, CAN’T POSSIBLY BELIEVE
I’M HANGING UP THE PHONE NOW THIS CALLS ENDING
YOU KNOW WHERE I’LL BE
COME OVER, COME OVER LATE NIGHT CALLER
I’M NOT A HOTLINE I AM SOMETHING
NOT SURE YOU KNOW ME AS SOMETHING OTHER
THEN BEING JUST YOUR FANTASY

Miserable

I KNOW WHERE WE ARE
WE’RE IN YOUR PARENT’S BASEMENT
AREN’T YOU TOO OLD FOR THIS SHIT?
YET I’M HERE WASTED…
IT IS WHAT IT IS
BUT I’M MISERABLE AT THIS
AND THERE I GO JUDGING
ONE OF MY MOST LOVED TRAITS
I SHOULD’NT CARE WHAT YOU DO
BUT TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE..
IT IS WHAT IT IS
BUT I’M MISERABLE AT THIS

IT’S A NO MAN’S LAND OUT HERE
AIN’T A BOY FOR BLOCKS
THE DROUGHT GOT REAL SEVERE,
NO GETTING YOUR ROCKS OFF
IN THE SUBURBS SHIT GOT DRY
A LONG TIME AGO
AND ALL THE BOYS WERE WILLING TO DIE
JUST FOR A QUICK BLOW
THIS AIN’T HOW IT’S SUPPOSED TO GO
I WANT THE MAN AND THE DREAM
BUT I’M STILL STUCK IN THIS HOLE
WITH NO FUCKING MONEY
SO I GO LOOKING FOR A MAN
TO SCREAM MY NAME
AND AFTER 30 MINUTES I’LL LEAVE
WITH INCREDIBLE SHAME
ALL I’VE DONE IS WAKE UP
AND DO THE SAME THING FOR A YEAR
AIN’T WILLING TO TAKE A SHITTY JOB
IF IT MEANS I’LL STAY HERE
THIS AIN’T HOW IT’S SUPPOSED TO GO
I WANT THE MAN AND THE DREAM
BUT I’M STILL STUCK IN THIS HOLE
WITH NO FUCKING MONEY

YOU USED TO SAVE ME
USED TO MAKE ME FEEL A WAY
YOU USED TO SAVE ME
BUT I DON’T REMEMBER WHY I STAYED
I DON’T REMEMBER WHY I STAYED
I KNOW I SAW A LIGHT IN YOU
I KNOW I SAW A LIGHT IN YOU
WHERE DID YOU GO?
WHAT DID YOU DO?
I STILL TELL MYSELF IT WASN’T TRUE
INSIDE A DREAM
YOU’VE BEEN TRYING TO KILL ME
INSIDE A DREAM
WHEN I WAKE UP YOU’RE DEAD TO ME
WHEN I WAKE UP YOU’RE DEAD TO ME
I KNOW I SAW A LIGHT IN YOU
I KNOW I SAW A LIGHT IN YOU
WHERE DID YOU GO?
WHAT DID YOU DO?
I STILL TELL MYSELF IT WASN’T TRUE

FUNNY HOW QUICKLY YOU BURNT OUT THE FLAME
GAVE ME A SMOKE SIGNAL, ONE SHOT TO CHANGE
BUT YOU’RE NOT MAKING A LESSON OUT OF ME
CAUSE I FOUND YOU WEAK, NOT TRAUMATIZING
AND I’VE ALWAYS KNOWN I’VE BEEN THIS WAY
BUT MY HEART IS PURE, YOU CAN’T SAY THE SAME
TOOK THE LONG WAY AROUND TO GET HERE
BETTER ALONE SO GET DRUNK ON YOUR TEARS
AND I DON’T CARE IF YOU’RE HAPPY NOW
CAUSE I CARE MORE THAT I FUCK WITH MYSELF
NOT GONNA GIVE WHAT YOU WANT FROM ME
I’M FEELING BRATTY
YOU REALLY THOUGHT THAT I WOULD COME BACK
AS IF! YOU’RE THE BEST THING THAT I’VE EVER HAD
GOD YOU MUST BE OUT OF YOUR MIND
THOUGHT I’D DIE WITHOUT YOU BUT I’M ON FUCKIN FIRE
AND I DON’T CARE IF YOU’RE HAPPY NOW
CAUSE I CARE MORE THAT I FUCK WITH MYSELF
NOT GONNA GIVE WHAT YOU WANT FROM ME
I’M FEELING BRATTY
IT’S NOT ME, IT’S YOU
DO I GOTTA SPELL IT OUT FOR YOU
NOW IT’S YOUR TURN TO CRY
YOU’RE HISTORY, GOODBYE
AND I DON’T CARE IF YOU’RE HAPPY NOW
CAUSE I CARE MORE THAT I FUCK WITH MYSELF
NOT GONNA GIVE WHAT YOU WANT FROM ME
I’M FEELING BRATTY

I’M IN THE BACKSEAT OF TERRY’S CAR
NEAR THE MOUNTAIN BROW,
MY PARENT’S PLACE AIN’T FAR
HE’S DOING THINGS NOT LOST ON ME
HE’S TAKING SOMETHING I’VE NEVER SEEN
AND IT’S SO COLD RIGHT NOW IN MARCH
BUT IN TERRY’S BACKSEAT,
HE’S KEEPING ME WARM IN HIS ARMS
HE’S DEFINITELY WAY OLDER THAN ME
I THINK HE’S THE FATHER OF SOMEONE’S FAMILY
NOW TERRY’S GOT MY FACE IN HIS HANDS
AND HE’S MAKING ME DO THINGS
I SOMEHOW UNDERSTAND
HE THINK’S IM SOME FRAGILE YOUNG THING
HE SHOULD PROBABLY KNOW, I COULD RUIN HIS FAMILY
TERRY DROPS ME IN A PARKING LOT
I WALK HOME ALONE, HE SAYS HE’LL CALL
HE’S NOT
I GOT SOME SECRETS THAT I WANNA KEEP
GUESS I’M NOT SO DIFFERENT FROM TERRY
IN THE BACK OF TERRY’S CAR
MET MYSELF IN THE BACK OF TERRY’S CAR

I HAD A DREAM I SAW PETER PAN SMOKING METH
DEAD IN THE EYES
CAUSE HE’S SELLING LIES THAT KID’S WONT FORGET
FUNNY HOW THAT MAKES TOTAL SENSE
CAUSE IF I KNEW WHAT THE FUTURE HELD
I THINK I’D BE RIGHT THERE WITH HIM
ARE YOU RUNNING OUT OF TIME?
IS THAT ALL YOU THINK YOU’RE BORN TO DO?
IF YOU’RE NOT GONNA GROW WITH THEM
THEN THEY’RE GONNA GROW THE FUCK WITHOUT YOU
A LOST MAN ONCE SAID THAT I HAD AN OLD SOUL
AND IF I DIDN’T LOOK OUT FOR IT,
HE’D TAKE IT TO REPLACE HIS OWN
BUT ALL I SAW WAS A KID RUNNING SCARED IN HIS MIND
TRYING TO MAKE LOSS INTO GOLD
CAUSE THE WORLD LEFT HIM EMPTY AND UNKIND
ARE YOU RUNNING OUT OF TIME?
IS THAT ALL YOU THINK YOU’RE BORN TO DO?
IF YOU’RE NOT GONNA GROW WITH THEM
THEN THEY’RE GONNA GROW THE FUCK WITHOUT YOU
AND I BELIEVE, YOU’LL STILL COME TO MY WINDOW
AND TAKE ME, RIGHT OUT OF THIS FUCKED WORLD
AND YET I SEE, YOU’RE NOT WHO YOU THINK ARE
BET YOU WANTED THINGS DIFFERENT
BUT YOU’RE SO EASILY LOST IN THE DARK
I HAD A DREAM I SAW PETER PAN SMOKING METH
DYING ON A COT ALONE SOMEWHERE IN EAST VILLAGE
EXCEPT THAT WAS REAL, AND LIKE EVERYTHING YOUTH ENDS
AND THEN IT’S UP TO YOU,
TO FACE YOUR SHIT OR KEEP PLAYING PRETEND
TO FACE IT OR KEEP PLAYING PRETEND
TO FACE YOUR SHIT OR PLAY PRETEND
ARE YOU ALWAYS GONNA PLAY PRETEND?
