you're walking up to me,
my breathing turns to ash and bone
straightening my hair,
hoping I am what you want
you move a little closer,
i think i can't look away
your hair's a little messy,
you get a little close and say
I hope you're having fun here,
I hope you find it nice here
I'm quite a little nervous,
but I think I can take it
I've known you for a while
There's something I've not told you
You see that girl there waving,
Yeah she's the one I came with
Whycantshebeme?
Whycantshebeme?
She'll take you to the movies,
but I know you never really cared
You're more into talking,
You know she's not quite prepared.
I could treat you better,
I could tell you everything
And when you watch that movie
I hope that you'll be thinking
Whycantshebehim?
Whycantshebehim?
Feels bad to be friend-zoned,
What's she got that I don't?
No need to be sensual,
if you're not homosexual.
Whycantshebeme?
Whycantshebeme?
Whycantshebeme?

The Chair Song

i know that we'll be drifting apart on good terms
but that doesn't make it hurt any less
and I'll see your face in cafe windows
even though i never saw you there
i still recall the time we first met
i was scared, but i stared nevertheless
and I'll say goodbye without a freakout
but in the rain i just might see you reflect
and if i fall out of my chair
i hope you can catch me
so i don't hit my head
and i don't wake up bleeding
i wanna tell you that I'm grateful
but I'm scared it'll end up sounding weird
and I promise i will not forget you
and I'd like to think you'd do the same
and if I fall out of my chair
i hope you can catch me
so I don't hit my head
and i dont wake up bleeding
we don't have much time left
but i will be waiting till death

Cannibal

i watch you through the walls
i know you've seen before
open up my window
ill dress you up and carve you down
ooh, ooh
ooh, ooh
sheath my skin like a blade
leave you a doorway
crawl your skin up the wall
keep your ears on my doorframe
ooh, ooh
ooh, ooh
is this love?
or is this just a mess?
a broken eye
leaves me unimpressed
ooh ooh
ooh ooh
do you think i forgot
all the things you told me
i left you there out to rot
and ate you up like a cannibal
is this love?
or is this just a mess?
a broken eye
leaves me unimpressed

Endless Lullaby

I had a dream last night
Saw you looking over at me
Thought this couldn't be right
So I turned around and guess who I see?
My eyes adjust to the light
As your teeth guide my way back home
I thought this couldn't be right
It couldn't be, right?
So don't tell me it's over
I don't wanna see you walk away
Don't tell me we're over
but we were never a thing anyway
Cause I don't wanna make you mad
I just wanna make you see me
Every time you look like that
I just wanna be who you're looking for
Never wanna make you mad
Only wanna make you see me
Scared you'll never look like that
When it's me that you're looking for
Sing me a song, let me sleep up in your arms
Holy crap those arms
I'd never want it to end, no cause I just wanna remember it all
So don't tell me it's over
I don't wanna see you walk away
Don't tell me we're over
but we were never a thing anyway
Cause I don't wanna make you mad
I just wanna make you see me
Every time you look like that
I just wanna be who you're looking for
Never wanna make you mad
Only wanna make you see me
Scared you'll never look like that
When it's me that you're looking for
Cause I don't wanna make you mad
I just wanna make you see me
Every time you look like that
I just wanna be who you're looking for
Cause I don't wanna make you mad
I just wanna make you see me
Every time you look like that
I just wanna be who you're looking for
Never wanna make you mad
Only wanna make you see me
Scared you'll never look like that
When it's me that you're looking for

Haunted House

I went out to a movie
I thought I saw you there
But it was some other white guy
with dirt-brown eyes and hair
I used to dream about you
But now I can't sleep
Cause my pillow feels
Different now you're not here to warm it
I wanted to show you this next song
I wanted to see the way your eyes go wide
I can see it in my head
How'd that perfect boy just make me cry?
I wish I could climb out the window
I wish i could turn my head and see you there
I wish my body would go numb
So i can think about you and your hair
I wanna go outside to our treehouse
I wanna smell the wood and feel at home
Me and you and your haunted house
I'll hear your cat and I'll jump to you
I wish I could sleep forever
But god every song still sounds like you
I wanna climb to the rafters
I wanna see the world the way you do
If you're a rock, to you I'm a stone
If you're a rock, to you I'm a stone
If you're a rock, to you I'm a stone
If you're a rock, to you I'm a stone

Feel

I remember the way i felt
around this time last year
filling the shoes of the me that walked before
I'm still small, but a little more in control
I like looking at your face
you're real nice to look at, you know?
theres so many songs i wish i wrote cause they all just sound like you
do you feel the same way that i feel?
do you feel the same way that i feel?
i told you all that shit
and you were okay with it
i think you're the first one who didnt shut me down
and i thank you dearly for that
do you feel the same way that i feel?
do you feel the same way that i feel?
Is he the one that you want for real?
Is he everything you want to feel?
I'm sorry but I'm jealous of him
What's he got that myself doesn't?
Do you feel the way that I do?
Do you want the same that I do?
do you feel the same way that i feel?
do you feel the same way that i feel?
