I'm not cleaning my dirty windshield I don't wanna see too clear Standard D is plenty enough for me Hey, don't shout in my ear It just keeps going, like you were never there That's comforting to me God forbid I feel important I'm just sittin by the sea I've got a man who cooks me dinner I've got a man who makes me read I've got a man who loves his loved ones I've got a man all for me Come and stay with us any day We're one big family
2.
My fingertips feel like they're somebody else's Do I look ridiculous in this outfit? Oh you're still here today I wish you'd just go away My water bottle cuts my lips sometimes But I still forgive it cause it is mine Oh what's a little pain You're the only thing in my life to stay

123 01:39
Looks like I'm running out of time 1, 2, 3 Look you turned out just fine We all know you're so happy I told you things would be all right No fears, and no worries Don't jump in front of the train and Don't swerve in the other lane and Don't you go insane Oh please for me I need you To teach me To be carefree I need you To show me Oh you don't know me Not like I do Not like I do 1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3 1, 2, 3
4.
Mean 01:29
I'm so excited for you to get on that plane I never want to hear your voice again I've been counting the days til you'd be gone It's at negative seven and the counting still goes on I swear I'm not usually this mean You're so self-centered you bring out the worst in me I'm praying that you'll stay away Do one of those things you talk about and don't come back this way
5.
Wind 02:18
I want to feel the wind I want it to burn my skin I want to lose my breath I want to have nothing left All the problems in my life Are imagined in my mind Who am I to say what's real Or who's getting a bad deal I want to fall apart Put me in your grocery cart Leave us in the parking lot I don't need another shot I'll stay there rain sun snow or hail I'll stay until my systems fail Or will I take a risk or chance Can I have this last dance
6.
Nowhere 00:44
I'm going nowhere
7.
Rice Cooker 01:41
I wanna live in a rice cooker you know where you might find me I'll be nice and warm in there safe from harm The past feels like my imagination the past feels like my imagination no one tell me no one tell me no one tell me no one tell me The Garnet Strike is gonna come all right
8.
The Dome 02:58
We're heading for the dome on the hill Life there must be so ideal I'm selfish I can't help it I'll just watch it sparkle Eyes wide I'll just marvel My bottom teeth are cold I think I'm getting old It's raining but I can't feel it I'm an angel mom I'm leaving
9.
Urgent 02:21
My heart is beating so fast and I don't know why My breath is so fast and I don't why Everything is so urgent can it all just stop? My water bottle leaks from the top My roommates cook me dinner I'm such a little shit This morning I thought I got hit. At the local gas station I don't have to do a thing I sit here worrying At the local gas station they've got what you need To clear your memory
10.
Exactly 02:03
this is exactly what I didn't want to happen I gotta stop thinkin about you I'm giving up Let me sink away Perched against the window nothing left to say
11.
I'm thinkin about fallin in love but like, just as friends Little things they happen and I wanna cry Sometimes I crack my neck and think, it'll crack my neck I'm on edge shoulders tense on the fence all the time Everything is a blur all the time And I drive by the frozen lake, just at this time every day The sky is pink my mind is blank, I don't know who to thank I stayed up late talkin to you and I don't know why I can't look the crossing guards in the face Before I could look forward to just, getting out of this place Now I'm here with nothing... And I drive by the frozen lake, just at this time every day Sky is pink my mind is blank, I don't know who to thank
12.
Bloody Lip 01:44
I like it when my lip bleeds It makes me feel important blood is leaving my body the pain gives me something to focus on better than focusing on the rush that I'm always in and I think it looks cool when I look in the mirror I think I look edgy anything to make me think about myself a different way to feel like a different person
13.
Jacob, we're in the kitchen Is this what I've been missin? The sun is comin up soon You can still see the moon I feel hopeful once in a while Sometimes I just wanna be happy with what's around me and not think of other possibilities Oh No Fuck that shit I'm ridin with my dreams I don't wanna be your fool My left shoe is a swimming pool Whether I go or stay, good things are coming your way You gave me something to hold You made me feel at home I took care of you It was the least I could do I really really miss you I really really miss you You had so much to do You had so much to do

Relax Enjoy 01:58
15.
Windlike 03:35
You're watching over me, criticizing everything I do. There's no escaping you. There's no undoing it, the damage has already been done. I'm on the run. There's nothing to worry about, I just found out.
