And checked the weather just to know
I tied myself up like a knot
It’s not like me to fall apart
You told me sweetly that you lied
I told you I already knew
I guess you know by now that I’d
Have done the same if it were you
So whatever it is
I’m taking care of it
Yeah whatever it is
I’m taking care of it
I’m taking care of it
Alpine butterflies on the lawn
I tied the rope around your hand
I’ve always known it won’t be long
Til I’d be turning into dad
You told me sweetly that you lied
I told you I already knew
I guess you know by now that I’d
Do fucking anything for you
So whatever it is
I’m taking care of it
Yeah whatever it is
I’m taking care of it
I’m taking care of it
So whatever it is
I’m taking care of it
Yeah whatever it is
I’m taking care of it
1. Love You Now

3. Marmalade
4. 7 Up
5. Stupid
6. Good Fight
7. Leave
8. Rainbow Hotel
I’m a four or a five
And your only score is a perfect nine
But none of that mattered when we met
You took me away and I took you to bed
And even if I could would you
Not move a thing unless i asked you to
Baby that might be the only way now
That I know how
To love you now
I’m a good halfway
Through digging up all of the shit that you gave me
Then I heard that you bought a house down the road
On my favourite corner how did you know
And even if I could would I
Come over with a shotgun strapped to my thigh
Baby that might be the only way now
That I know how
To love you now
I Remember you said once
That the hairs on my back made it soft to touch
Then you pushed me over and shut me down
I’m wrapped around your finger for when no ones around
And just as I lay down my guard
I see you waving on the boulevard
Baby that might be the only place now
That we can go around
To drown it out
Dinner was alright
I held the conversation all night
But you won’t remember a word I said
I’m just a pretty song stuck in your head
2. Something You Were Trying
Been taking myself for a spin
Know exactly what I’ve been doing
You’ve been tugging on the loop of my jeans
Saying don’t leave baby don’t leave me
I was gone again by the time you got back
Now I’m lying here just pinching myself
They say you forget how you fell once you land
All I ever wanted was to know that you were thinking of me
All I ever wanted was to find a way eventually
And there’s always something left to find but maybe we’re just better at hidings
So I kinda figure that you were never really mine and I was just something you were trying
I wanna take you every place that I’ve been
I can do it all I can make it happen
You can hold on to the loop of my jeans
And I won’t leave baby I won’t leave
Then I guess I took the corner too fast
But I was flying for a minute just to crash
They say you forget how you fell once you land
3. Marmalade
Are you gonna be alright
I buried my shame just yesterday
In the garden where the angels piss all night
Onto coins that lay at the bottom deciding our fate
When it’s pouring down
I can’t hear myself
When the words come out
I can’t feel my mouth
When I’m facing my fears
And you’re facing a couple years
Are you gonna be alright
Will they know you by name or Will they take that away
Do you remember the very first time
If you see me again just know that I was eating marmalade
When it’s pouring down
I can’t hear myself
When the words come out
I can’t feel my mouth
When I’m facing my fears
And you’re facing a couple years
Can’t deny
That you’ve been somewhere on my mind
Since february two thousand five
But where the hell was I
Where the hell was I
Where the hell was I
Marmalade my first mistake
Now i can make myself like
Anything I wanted to hate
Anything I wanted to hate
4. 7 Up
You got a free ride to Silver Lake
You got a good side and your mama’s ache
You got a half smile and a lemonade
You’re doing alright when you’re alright
You got a free ride to Silverlake
You had a rough night but they liked your face
You didn’t realise what the label takes
You gotta moonlight just incase
You said you’d come back for me somehow
But it freaks me out that you call it seven up now
You said you’d come back for me someday
But the angel on my back thinks you’re a gateway
And I tried to forget how much
How much you hurt me
And I dragged myself into the mess you love
Deliriously
You got a free ride to Silver Lake
You got a good side and your mama’s ache
You got a past life in another state
You’re doing alright when you’re alright
You said you’d come back for me somehow
But it freaks me out that you call it 7 Up now
You said you’d come back for me someday
But the angel on my back thinks you’re a gateway
And I tried to forget how much
How much you hurt me
And I dragged myself into the mess you love
Deliriously
And I tried to forget how much
How much you hurt me
How much you hurt me
5. Stupid
I never loved you for fun
I did it because it hurt
And it’s cool that you found someone
And it’s cool that it’s her
But it makes me feel so stupid
And nervous and lonely
That you’re doing all the shit that we did
And it’s perfect you know me
I never loved you for fun
I did it for the hell
By the pool with your tshirt on
When you said everything that I felt
But it makes me feel so stupid
and nervous and lonely
That you’re doing all the shit that we did
And it’s perfect you know me
And I never meant to change your mind
When you said just take your time
We did more than blur the lines
Now it makes me feel so stupid
And nervous and lonely
That you’re doing all the shit that we did
And it’s perfect you know me
Yeah you’re doing all the shit that we did
And it’s perfect you know me you know me
I never loved you for fun
6. Good Fight
I made you crazy
You made me nervous
We gave each other purpose
I made you dinner
You made me thinner
We’re slaving away under the surface
We go on and off and on and off and on
Yeah we go on and off and on and off and on
You said you came for a good fight
I’m scared and I’m bored at the same time
You said you came for a good fight
I’m scared and I’m bored at the same time
I’m back to playing
Ain’t that the main thing
I just stare at the wall til I see a painting
There’s now and theres never
And they’ve been there forever
But I’m so glad we found them together
We go on and off and on and off and on
Yeah we go on and off and on and off and on
Yeah we go on and off and on and off and on
You said you came for a good fight
I’m scared and I’m bored at the same time
You said you came for a good fight
I’m scared and I’m bored at the same time
7. Leave
I found a letter to myself in an empty drawer
I made it into a paper plane and it flew into the floor
And in the morning it feels like somebody’s turning the page
So I keep telling myself don’t try if nothing’s gonna change
Cause even when we gave it more it would feel like less
I knew the number but I lost count
Put on an open shirt and a bullet proof vest
When I got tired of thinking about
Are you gonna la la leave me
Tell me what’s it gonna be
Are you gonna la la leave me
Tell me what’s it gonna be
Are you gonna la la
I found a letter to myself in an empty drawer
But now I feel like I’m someone else So who’d I write it for
cause even when we gave it more it would feel like less
i knew the number but i lost count
put on an open shirt and a bullet proof vest
when i got tired of thinking about
Are you gonna la la leave me
Tell me what’s it gonna be
Are you gonna la la leave me
Tell me what’s it gonna be
Are you gonna la la
Don’t wanna forget
Can’t remember it
every little bit
(I’m just so tired of thinking)
Are you gonna la la leave me
Tell me what’s it gonna be
Are you gonna la la leave me
Tell me what’s it gonna be
Are you gonna la la
8. Rainbow Hotel
Don’t drink the coffee
Finish your meal
You got a show on later
So just try not to feel
Go stand on the back beach
Where the kites all fly around
Then drive over the minefield
And I’ll hold you to the ground
Today is enough
Today is enough
You got Silverstone on the tv
You got his voice inside your head
You heard him saying Phoebe
You’re such an idiot
I know he said there was nothing left
About you to love
And I know how that destroyed you
And I know you brushed it off
Today is enough
Today is enough
Yeah today
And you know that tomorrow’s another one
There’s a whole new kind of anxious
That you never knew you had
There’s the guy at the tobacconist
Who’s been acting like your dad
Your friends are gonna look at you
Like there’s something on your face
You’re gonna realise before they do
That there’s just nothing they can say
To make it go
Away I know
Today
Today
Today...
1. We Don’t Talk
2. The Kid
3. Hey
4. Be the Player, Not the Poet
5. Birthday
I’ve been seeing
somebody about it in my sleep
We don’t talk we just walk
And it’s been helping me
Cause I lost it again on the weekend
Man I was off my face
Like when people change cause they’re in LA
There’s something sad about that place
I’ve been feeling
Some of the shit I don’t believe in
Saw my picture in a frame
Hanging up in the hallway
And I’ve been sleeping
Sust to walk away the feeling
Saw my picture up in flames
Still hanging in the hallway
Caught myself thinking
About who’s really inside this glass
But we don’t talk when we get caught
Rather run the other way than come last
Cause I see myself on the top shelf
And I’m staring back down at me
Yeah we don’t drink we just Sit here and sink
Ain’t that one way of being free
I’ve been feeling
Some of the shit I don’t believe in
Saw my picture in a frame
Hanging up in the hallway
And I’ve been sleeping
Sust to walk away the feeling
Saw my picture up in flames
Still hanging in the hallway
2. The Kid
I feel weird i n this dress
Didn’t you picture me with pinstriped legs
Truth is I think you met me at my best
Under the table now I’m scared to death
Cause I take it to the heart
And now I’m going under
I’m out looking for the stars
But they’re out looking for the dark
I got a handful of hope
But the voice in my head
Is still tying me up
With every word unsaid
I wanna hand it to ya
But my lace caught on the fence
Was it more than
Just a loose end
Drown me out
I wanna hear all about you for now
I’ll take the floor and you can take the couch
Baby just watch the door as I watch your mouth
Cause I take it to the heart
And now I’m going under
I’m out looking for the stars
But they’re out looking for the dark
I got a handful of hope
But the voice in my head
Is still tying me up
With every word unsaid
I wanna hand it to ya
But my lace caught on the fence
Was it more than
Just a loose end
3. Hey
Hey I got a heart
I found it in the backyard
When I couldn’t sleep cause I heard a scream
So I took a walk and it followed me
Right to the end of the one way street
Where I hit my friend the other week
And for a minute there swear I was blind
He said I don’t mind if you don’t mind
No I don’t mind if you don’t mind
Hey I got a heart
I found it in the backyard
For a minute there swear I was blind
But i still shine from time to time
I get mad about what I can’t have
And I hate it that I’m like that
Stopped looking for a last escape
When I realised there were no gates
Cause at 22 he got his way
Down from the stairs we used to play
A little too much pain than he could afford
And a little help from an extension cord
Hey I got a heart
I found it in the backyard
For a minute there swear I was blind
But i still shine from time to time
4. Be the Player, Not the Poet
Spent 2 hours too long
On a wasted video call
Telling you about what’s going on with me
My nintendo addiction and all
About how I breathe in its air
Cause it’s warm and it takes me back home
But who am I to expect you to care
When I’m paying you to sit on the phone
Then she said remove your head from it
Try being the player not the poet
She’s growing up good on bad advice
She’s taking the inch but in time she’ll take the mile
I found you asleep in the sun
So I pulled out my camera for once
I hovered on the trigger but the picture changed
So I cried and went back to my game
And I should learn that there are no words
To bring back the year that I missed
But there’s no place like a warzone when I’m in a sweatshirt
So thanks but I’m fine playing this
Then she said remove your head from it
Try being the player not the poet
She’s growing up good on bad advice
She’s taking the inch but in time she’ll take the mile
5. Birthday
I’m afraid
Of my tendency to look the other way
And I can’t explain
Why I packed for the night but I planned to overstay
Not acting my age
He set the table as I poured the cornflakes
Know how to lock myself away
When it’s october and I’m avoiding my birthday
And you’re making me so alone
That if I had no one
I don’t think I’d hate it
Now come come on
It only happens once
And I just wanna waste it
I don’t wanna carry on
And I don’t wanna play the part
I don’t wanna start to feel
Like there’s something I forgot
I don’t wanna retrace my steps
Until I find my heart
Gripping on to the door frame
Like a kid on his first day
And you’re making me so alone
That if I had no one
I don’t think I’d hate it
Now come come on
It only happens once
And I just wanna waste it
