Surprise, surprise Turns out that I’m a talker More like an animator An easily excitable exaggerator Really I, I don’t mean to I don’t mean to cut you off It’s a good thing you have two ears I’ve already talked one off If a picture’s worth Worth a thousand words I’ll cut you a deal Chorus: And certainly you don’t have to listen Certainly you don’t have to listen Certainly you don’t have to listen Certainly you don’t have to listen to me Surprise, surprise Turns out that I’m a stalker More like an admirer Deliriously diabolical desirer Really I, I don’t want to I don’t want to cut you up It’s a good thing you have two hands I’ve already cut one up If a finger’s worth Worth a thousand words I’ll cut you a deal And certainly you don’t have to listen Certainly you don’t have to listen Certainly you don’t have to listen to me [Repeat Chorus]

I don’t know how to tell you This is not what I bargained for Bit off more than I could chew Options were far and few Had to get out, looking for answers Hard to get past your double standards Chorus: I’ve got a skeleton in a spice jar I’ll let you in on a secret Wishes are wasted on shooting stars But you can take it or leave it [Repeat Chorus] I don’t need your forgiveness Still not sure what I’m looking for I can let go of the shame Can I forget their name Had to get out Looking for answers Hard to get past your double standards [Repeat Chorus x5] I’ve got a skeleton in a spice jar I’ll let you in on a secret Wishes are wasted on shooting stars I wasn’t ready to keep it

Glow 02:27 video
lyrics

Tired fingers, aching eyes Letters and pictures paralyze Have you ever been, been lost For so long That your hands, hands go Your hands go numb Eyes die, dilating Like an animal watching fire Chorus: You used to look ahead Now you hang low Your eyes reduced to just a dull blue glow Reflecting the images you’re scrolling through Tired fingers Aching eyes Faces and filters, your disguise Have you ever been, been lost for so long That you didn’t even realize that you were gone Eyes die, dilating Like an animal watching fire [Repeat Chorus] You used to look ahead Now you hang low Your eyes reduced to just a dull, blue glow

What did I say What did I say My mind is singing but my lips are still If you’re willing to sit with me I can tell you I can tell you I know how to travel the world on a budget There’s nothing that we can’t afford to discover Chorus: What, what was that you said I missed it again There must’ve been something right there on the tip of your tongue What, what was I thinking Forgot it again It was really right there on the tip of my tongue I swear What did you say What did you say My ears are ringing and my mouth is dry If you’re willing to come with me I can show you I can show you I know how to travel the world on a budget There’s nothing that we can’t afford to discover [Repeat Chorus]

Compare, contrast Easy to obsess All eyes on you Doesn’t feel good I don’t, I don’t want your conditional approval Hard to, hard to keep up when the game is pay to Chorus: Play Highest bidder Loser, winner Smoke and vapor Piece of paper I don’t, I don’t want your conditional approval Hard to, hard to keep up when the game is pay to [Repeat Chorus] Compare, contrast Easy to obsess All eyes on you Doesn’t feel good

Jump Rope 03:13
lyrics

Cleaning my room Meant to for days Coffee for dinner was a mistake Too many t-shirts Posters from high school So easy to hold onto Chorus: Oh, sentient sentimentality Is it a weakness Oh, sentient sentimentality It’s not that simple, no It’s hard to trust my judgement calls Hence the need to save it all Save for what Save for something Something must be more than nothing [Repeat Chorus] I cut off my hair but kept my straightener Half written journals, a broken stapler Jump rope from fifth grade I’ve learned there are better ways To get your heart racing, oh So much left to go through I don’t trust my judgement calls on quantity versus quality And I’m still getting used to empty walls

Good morning, darling Yes, the day is here, time to wake Embrace me, dreamer One more fantasy, drift away All I can think about are all of things I’m missing All I’m afraid of now is the fear that I’m missing out All I can do is dream now, all I can do is dream now Chorus: Intoxication, how can you taste so sweet No stranger witness of innocence A simple question Do your eyelids feel as heavy as mine Come closer, darling And I’ll take you in Time to go All I can think about are all of things I’m missing All I’m afraid of now is the fear that I’m missing out All I can do is dream now, all I can do is dream now [Repeat Chorus] I thought I was watching you die That night, long night Painted shoes and musical chairs Happy Birthday I’ve been wrong before Now we have this broken door

Exit Strategy 03:16
lyrics

Would I rather die than watch you go Maybe it’s best we never know Who will do the running Running when the time comes Running towards a closing door Can I still slip through or just you On the other side Chorus: It’s just another necessary goodbye We all have to find a different way to go I promise not to hate you for leaving If you won’t hate me staying here, here behind I can see your smile start to crack Maybe it’s best I don’t come back I’ll miss the breeze, I’ll miss the voices I’ll miss the way it felt to lie beneath your shade Now the sun’s shining in my eyes [Repeat Chorus] Here behind Beautiful, beautiful, perfect palm tree Beautiful, beautiful, perfect palm tree You’ve got me desperate for an exit strategy Beautiful, beautiful, perfect palm tree Beautiful, beautiful, useless palm tree You’re so full And I’m so empty

Chorus: And I want to believe you Maybe we’ve seen it all On Labor Day, on Labor Day Yeah, I want to believe you Could be invincible On Labor Day, on Labor Day I know that you’ve been coming up Still feels like nothing is enough To keep your feet from falling off Just put your shoes back on A modern jungle guarantees No wireless amenities I’ll take that bet you’re better off Don’t turn your phone back on [Repeat Chorus] Oh, struggling just to say Really, I’m ok But I can’t help lying here and contemplating Oh, everything’s the same Will it ever change But I can’t stop wondering what it is I’m waiting for [Repeat Chorus] I know that you’ve seen stars before Still searching for a little more To keep your head from taking off Just put your helmet on [Repeat Chorus] Oh, everything’s the same Will it ever change But I can’t stop wondering what it is I’m waiting for
