Flamingo 01:33
Stop me If I’m going too fast Shock me Is this going to last White sheets Feathers bathed in ink The only thing that gets to me You look so pretty in pink

Peachy Keen 03:15
Dozing off to moles and squares Toes in docks and dyes in hair Save my seat I’ve gone somewhere sweet (Peachy keen) I remember that summer We dwelled in cold Decembers You Were always on my mind Destitute and getting older You were fucked up I was sober We Could never get it right The waves slept and bummed We danced on our doves I wonder what you’re thinking We crowned love in tongues You’re my sugar plum That’s when we started drinking Save my seat I’ve gone somewhere sweet Peachy keen We’re great, fine, complete I remember that summer We dwelled in cold Decembers You Were always on my mind Destitute and getting older You were fucked up I was sober We Could never get it right I remember that summer We dwelled in cold Decembers You Were always on my mind Destitute and getting older You were fucked up I was sober We Could never get it right I remember that semester You were happy never better I Was never on your mind Was never on your mind

Across the avenue, our gaze collides I spot your stupid sign I’ve lost a friend or two to suits and ties So come with me tonight I caught a glimpse of you You caught my eye And all my friends will die I got a place for two Inside my mind Let’s just jump off tonight Another minute ticks away My blood is boiling muscles shake They say I’m crazy gone insane But I’m okay Impending judgment plagues my brain I need to escape It’s over we’re finished the sky’s gonna fall down today I caught a glimpse of you You caught my eye And all my friends will die I got a place for two Inside my mind Let’s just jump off tonight I’ve lost a friend or two to suits and ties So come with me tonight I caught a glimpse of you You caught my eye And all my friends will die I got a place for two Inside my mind Let’s just jump off tonight

Stuck in the highlights, I was convinced Couldn’t see all that pretty shit I was terrified, did I normalize these things? Caught in a bird’s eye, lost and alone My baby listens on the phone While I seek and I try to find what puts this man at ease Take these wings in desolation Take them in your arms again Who will love you once you’re broken? Who will be there in the end? I can try and change but that don’t Mean I’ll be a better man Looming trials and tribulations In the end, will I still stand? Mama told me, fight for your own In due time you’ll take your thrown Simple life was my pride The catcher in the rye in me Carry on, she says to me Plead with God for all bad deeds Cause the winds and the breeze Yeah they’re slowly humbling me Take these wings in desolation Take them in your arms again Who will love you once you’re broken? Who will be there in the end? I can try and change but that don’t Mean I’ll be a better man Looming trials and tribulations In the end, will I still stand?

Nail Polish 05:03
My house is blue And green and golden Glass walls and roof I don’t wanna fight anymore I don’t wanna fight anymore When stones come through It topples over I know I lose I don’t wanna fight anymore I don’t wanna fight anymore I paint my nails and you got me glowing up It’s getting rough I paint my nails you always get me going Genie of my grief I let him be There’s nothing wrong with me I get cold feet I sleep away the day Under the screen There’s nothing wrong with me I let it be So I told him not to fade away There’s nothing in my brain I’m putting walls up just to get some shade I don’t wanna fight anymore I don’t wanna fight anymore Said I gotta get away, today This godforsaken place Is keeping me from wanting my own face I don’t wanna fight anymore I don’t wanna fight anymore I paint my nails and you got me glowing up It’s getting rough I paint my nails and you got me glowing up It’s getting rough and it’s time to sober up I pay my bail and the weekends show me love We’re growing up I paint my nails you always get me going My house is blue And green and golden Glass walls and roof I don’t wanna fight anymore I don’t wanna fight anymore When stones come through It topples over I know I lose I know we're alright We're just fine I’ve got bad blood in my veins, don’t let it escape I’m not afraid of what’s at stake, I just misbehave I’ve got bad blood in my veins, don’t let it escape I’m not afraid of what’s at stake

Stones 04:38
Hold me now I’m freaking out My bones are cold Bolted down I’m well endowed It’s getting old You surround me for the last time Far too loud we can’t get past mine My wounds are still open I’m sick of invoking a deity despised But for some small moments, our stones keep on rolling, the ringing subsides See the sun We’re never done I’m followed home Speak up son I hear no one It’s in my bones You surround me for the last time Far too loud we can’t get past mine My wounds are still open I’m sick of invoking a deity despised But for some small moments, our stones keep on rolling, the ringing subsides You can sleep, but you’ll never rest
