There’s that cloud again Old friend tell me how’ve you been Here I thought that you’d forgot my address How’s the wife and kids? Still making other’s lives shit? An impeccable family tradition If I plug my ears, close my eyes And I ignore the falling sky Maybe I’ll convince myself that I’ll be just fine May’s well grab a seat Lean back and kick up your feet It’s apparent you’re in no hurry to leave If I plug my ears, close my eyes And I ignore the falling sky Maybe I’ll convince myself that I’ll be just fine If I ignore falling skies Tightly close my fucking eyes Maybe I’ll convince myself that I will be alright

This Friday night, am I gonna see you? You haven’t been around in two whole weeks Do you have time for what we used to do? Or are you monumentally busy? I want to take you to a party (I want to take you to a party) I want to take you out to every single show that I go to Will I see you at that art thing? (The one that’s down by Art Van) I want to tag along to every single show that you go to You know I’m into you All the ways my heart beats faster at your laughter You know it isn’t right to think of all the ways I hide it I want to take you to a party I want to take you to a party I want to take you to a party

Stupid High 02:46
She wanted to hang out and I pretend I’m fine But it’s bullshit, I’m freaking out She goes back home And I get stoned So don’t think it, you’ll jinx it You’re probably right she’s just being nice But I don’t want to think about it anymore tonight If I do I’ll see if I can fly Dumb enough to try it but too fucked to go and drive So I’ll stay home and just get stupid high Bad news, forgotten plans She bailed so hard for some dumb champagne bar Is it bullshit? I don’t know She’s go back home And I get stoned But it's alright, the leagues weren’t right What do I know of being in the show? But I don’t want to think about it anymore tonight If I do I’ll see if I can fly Dumb enough to try it but too fucked to go and drive So I’ll stay home and just get stupid high Maybe so, maybe not Either way I’m where Iwant to be As relieved as bummed out Maybe there are answers I should seek (But I’m not looking for them) Because speculations easier on me So I'll stay home and jsut get stupid high

Just say the word and I’m on the next plane outta here Headed straight to wherever you are Just say the word and I‘ll quit my shitty job Break my lease sell my records and my car I don’t need anything that isn’t you Maybe it’s time that we try take two Just say the word and this town has seen the last of me Nothing more than an afterthought And if that plane (or bus or car or train) Should leave this place without me (though it would be a shame) So be it that just means I’ll fucking walk I don’t need anything that isn’t you Maybe it’s time, I think we’re way past due How can I miss someone so much that I haven't seen for years? How can you be as close to perfect as it appears? Not perfect in the flawless sense but perfect just for me Dick jokes, Chipotle, Trio, Popes, beer, horror movies Just say the word

Why act so surprised? It’s apathy disguised It’s not a phase, I’m not ashamed to admit I’m broken You told me that one night That in my eyes is where you want to be I hope you meant that figuratively It’s not that I have something to hide I know enough to stay away but not enough to say I’m sorry Of course you’re right but there’s a fight There is always more to say Ignorance is bliss until it’s too late Why act so surprised? It’s apathy disguised It’s not a phase, I’m not ashamed to admit I’m broken Let’s go out tonight because in your eyes is where I want to be Of course I mean that figuratively It’s not that I have something to hide I know enough to stay away but not enough to say I’m sorry Of course you’re right but there’s a fight There is always more to say Ignorance is bliss until it’s too late Now I, I can’t decide If you or I should make the time To lie is suicide but I’ll still lie I’ll still lie

We were never gonna be alright I was never gonna save us anyway Tried to force the future to be bright\ Hoping red flags would somehow just fade away Both leaving on our own Seeds so poorly sown If I ever had an ounce of fight It’s not in me tonight Consider this my final concession That’s right I’m giving in Game is over, towel has been thrown in Congratulations world you fucking win We were never gonna be alright I was never gonna save us anyway Put your shades away there's nothing bright Unless you count the past which is engulfed in flames Both leaving on our own Seeds so poorly sown If I ever had an ounce of fight (I know) It’s not in me tonight Consider this my final concession (I’m done) That’s right I’m giving in Game is over, towel has been thrown in Congratulations world you fucking win If I ever had an ounce of fight (I know) It’s not in me tonight Consider this my final concession (I’m done) That’s right I’m giving in Game is over, towel has been thrown in Congratulations world you fucking win

You’re not the one that keeps me up at night You’re not the one I want here by my side You’re not the one that's changed my mind on love So, woah, you’re not the one
