Garden Song

I don’t really want to start a garden
I’m just tryna take my mind off everything
You know I always run when I should let you in
And I always ask for anything at all but listening
I don’t really wanna do anything
I just would like to see the look on your face if I did
I don’t really wanna do anything
I just would like to see the look on your face if I did
I don’t really wanna watch the sunset
I’m just tryna focus on one thing
I don’t really wanna watch the sunset
I’m just tryna focus on one thing
And it’ll just break my heart
If you are disappointed
Or when you find out that this isn’t at all what you wanted
And it’ll just break my heart
If you are disappointed
Or when you find out that this isn’t at all what you wanted
I don’t really want to start a garden
I don’t really want to watch the sunset
I don’t really want to start a garden
I don’t really want to watch the sunset
But I’m just tryna focus on one thing
I’m just tryna not waste my time
Cause maybe this is something
Or maybe it’s just nothing
Maybe sometimes I should put up a fight
When every single word’s just like a knife
Maybe this is something
Or maybe it’s just nothing
Maybe this is something
Or maybe it’s just nothing
Maybe this is something
Maybe it’s just nothing
Maybe it’s just nothing
Maybe it’s just nothing

I Can Do It
03:03
|

I'm turning out like my mother like you said I would
Told you go walking find something u like in the woods
But I never bother, Still give every person my word
I never bother, I never bother
Digging up holes til I find some sort of treasure
I never know when to give up I keep asking you
Sometime come over before I clean up my room
And maybe you'll ask me again this time I won't sound dumb
You make it seem so much harder than it is
I can do it I can do it
Get my name off your lips
You make it seem so much harder than it is
I can do it I can do it
While you’re ahead you should quit
I don't give good advice I go back on what I said
And I keep on pushing for answers while you're still in bed
When will you tell me everything I think's in your head
I only buy all the books I already read
You make it seem so much harder than it is
I can do it I can do it
Get my name off your lips
You make it seem so much harder than it is
I can do it i can do it
While you're ahead you should quit
You push your glasses up
And you pull your chair right up
you know If I wanted to
I'd ask someone else for help
It's always the same things I said from the very start
do you want to just pull all my skin apart
I can do it
I can do it
I can do it
I can do it
I can do it
I can do it
I can do it
I can do it

Wearing Out My Lungs
03:55
|
|||
I woke up before the sun this morning
And tried to figure out exactly how to fix my hair
As I twisted each strand together
I remembered exactly how you looked and all your words
I stood in my driveway all morning
Trying to decide which way I should be running
I try to hear your voice to tell me what to do
And when I only hear the wind
I try to think of some truth
I wish I could be there for you
I wish that I could know
Exactly what to do
I wish we could have had more time
But all at once I’m tired
I'm wearing out my lungs
I packed all my things up so carefully
Everything in its own place
I see a car just like yours drive toward me
Everything at once, I stand up tall, and clear my throat
I wish I could be there for you
I wish that I could know
Exactly what to do
I wish we could have had more time
But all at once I’m tired
I'm wearing out my lungs
Maybe if I’m okay
Everyone will be okay
Maybe if I’m never late
No one will be angry
Maybe if I keep you close
I’ll know just what to say
Maybe when i find you
I won’t run away
Maybe I will dream about you
Then I’ll know your face
Or maybe it’s all up to me
I choose where to stay
I wish I could be there for you
I wish that I could know
Exactly what to do
I wish we could have had more time
But all at once I’m tired
I'm wearing out my lungs
I wish that I could know
But I don't know
And I wish I could be sure
You're coming home

What if we lose everything
What if there’s no way we can win
Someone’s gotta change something
It’s not really fair that this happened
I don’t know what my job is here
Do you want me to clean up
While you sit back and cheer
Me on my knees
Can’t stand up or I can’t breathe
There’s smoke in the leaves
I just lay down, try to give myself some type of release
But I feel no relief
It’s the weight of the heat
Pressing onto me
And I know I’m not free
And I can’t dream
I can’t dream
I can’t dream
What if we lose everything (we lose)
What if there’s no way we can win (there’s nowhere else)
Someone’s gotta change something (we can’t go back)
It’s not really fair that this happened (lose everything)
(we lose, there’s nowhere else, we can’t go back, lose everything)
When’s it all gonna collapse
The walls fall in and everyone’s trapped
The neighbours go by on a little life raft
Everything’s gone, nobody can go back
And you say life’s just like that
But nobody gave us a road map
And it’s night time, there’s no signs, and no one to ask
There’s no way to go back
What if we lose everything (we lose)
What if there’s no way we can win (there’s nowhere else)
Someone’s gotta change something (we can’t go back)
It’s not really fair that this happened (lose everything)
You tell me it’s perfectly normal
It’s business as usual
It’s perfectly normal
You’re fine, your belly’s full
If you don't fear the water
Take my hand and I'll pull
What if we lose everything
What if we lose everything
The sun in the morning
The song the bird's singing
The mud coating my skin
The salt air on my lip
Save me my favourite
Save me my favourite

This Is Like Everything
02:41

I never know expressions
And I’m so embarrassing
And I like to hold hands
I never say the words how I want to
But I want to talk to you
And I think I’ll tell the truth
I think I’ll tell the truth
This is like reading a book
when it’s worse than the movie
I want to leave out the details
Forget what I tell you
This is like reading a book
when it’s worse than the movie
I want to leave out the details
Forget what I tell you
This is like
This is like
This is like this is like
It took a lot of convincing
still test if you love me
And I wish I didn’t
feel like I need to hide things
Feels like there’s too much
I never learned properly
You always turn up
Up there way ahead of me
This is like
This is like
This is like this is like
This is like this is like
This is like reading a book
when it’s worse than the movie
I want to leave out the details
Forget what I tell you
This is like reading a book
when it’s worse than the movie
I want to leave out the details
Forget what I tell you
This is like when you’re afraid
you won’t wake from a bad dream
I know if there's something to run from
there's a reason I should stay
This is why I never speak up
I knew you’d make fun of me
It’s something I’m always good at
Pretend I don’t need help
This is like everything
This is like everything
This is like everything
This is like everything
This is like everything
This is like everything
This is like everything
This is like everything
This is like
This is like
This is like this is like

My Favourite Song
03:20
|

I'm always driving
In somebody's blind spot
Thinking I'm going to crash
I never ask you
To look at my bruises
When I fall down in the Earth's cracks
And I always get everything I wanted
But I can't make it last
Maybe if I sing along to my favourite song
One more time
I won't feel everything go wrong
I always wanna be somewhere alone
Maybe if I sing along to my favourite song
One more time
I won't feel everything go wrong
I always wanna be somewhere alone
I'm always looking
For some kind of fairness
The only thing I've found
you're on your knees and fists
I didn't notice
I'm up on your back
I can only reach the ripest fruit
When you are holding me up
Maybe if I sing along to my favourite song
One more time
I won't feel everything go wrong
I always wanna be somewhere alone
Maybe if I sing along to my favourite song
One more time
I won't feel everything go wrong
I always wanna be somewhere alone
If I could I think I'd die
If it meant your mom could be alive
How do you decide
To take her life and I keep mine
She was perfect all along
I let everything go wrong
I wish you didn't have to be alone
Maybe if I sing along to my favourite song
One more time
I won't feel everything go wrong
I always wanna be somewhere alone
Maybe if I sing along to my favourite song
One more time
I won't feel everything go wrong
I always wanna be somewhere alone

I don’t really know what I want
But it’s covered head to toe
In thank you and please and don’t go
thank u and please and don’t go
You’re not stupid
I live in a make believe
And I cry and cry at the news that I read
I try and try to be someone you need
I cry and cry at the news
And the look on my dad’s face when I come home
And the way that I walk through water when you’re gone
I’m always walking through water when you’re gone
Who will take care of me if I take care of you
Who will take care of me if I take care of you
When you finally took my advice
It was too late and you couldn’t save anyone
And now that you told me what you’re scared of
Well I’m terrified
I’m terrified
I’m terrified
I don’t really know what I want
But it’s covered head to toe
In thank u and please and don’t go
I don’t want to ruin your night
I don’t wanna ruin your night
but do you even know me
(I don’t wanna ruin your night)
Remember that I never think that I’m right
(I’d go anywhere to see anything you showed me)
Remember that I never think that I’m right
I don’t really know what I want
But it’s covered head to toe
In thank u and please and don’t go
