Let You In
04:16

i don't know who you are but i'm sure they'll let you in
and you can't get away cos i look too much like him
i put names on the door and i've run out of spots to get you in
you look cute when you bite your nails when you watch me play
but i won't say a thing if you're thinking i'll ask your name
i'll just smoke with my friends and i'll feel like a ghost again
it's not you, i know
every day gets harder than the last
and you could have made it so much better
so just play it down and put me in the street
what would i know?
please don't see this as a cry for help
i'm only growing up
i'm only moving on from you
have you got the guts to cut me off completely?
or is now the time for me to talk?
like i don't know you
like you don't know me at all
cast a spell on me
just like the drugs that you need
everyone gets a little lost sometimes
every day gets harder than the last
and you could have made it so much better
so just play it down and put me in the street
what would i know?

Behind My Back
02:27
|

inside his laugh
occasional gasps
run from his mouth
day after day
i don't understand
the joke you just made
so keep it inside
just keep it inside you
i won't get along with you later in life
if you keep running your mouth behind my back
if you keep fucking my brain like that
inside his laugh
i can't hear a crack
a snort or a wheeze
just insecurities
let your hair down
'cause you're never in mine
or keep it inside you
if it doesn't sound right
i won't get along with you at all
if you keep running your mouth behind my back
if you keep fucking my brain like that

Waiting for Nothing
03:20
|
|||
hanging out in the same place
where i go to get away from you
wouldn't call it friendship if its so hard for you to choose
find you in the corners, alright
find you in the corners, alright
anyway, anyway, you were the only other
anyway, anyway, you were the only other
i'm sorry for the things i said that day
i'm always looking for the words to say
i didn't wanna hold back these thoughts much longer
i didn't wanna see you make that face you do
ahhh
you're gonna stain the carpet with that wine in your hands
shared it with a friend i used to know
he's asking for a cigarette
maybe
i'll give
it up
somehow
i'm finding peace
with waiting for nothing

Fantastic Man
03:38
|

fantastic man with the shitty knees
hes got a good car but he can't find his keys
hes got a great girl but shes overseas
he'll never say thanks or please
he gets so nervous when others leave
that's not the man that i thought you would choose
but when i take a step back and look at you
you're quite alike but i could have been someone new
if you wanted me to
but don't dig me in a hole man
don't dig me in a hole man
don't leave me on my own man
don't dig me in a hole man
and i'm sorry if i hurt you
but sometimes my heart did flutter for you
when the morning comes
i won't remind myself
to remember
i won't let it kill me

Initiator
03:02
|

there was no one on the beach
there was no one in the water
when from the corner of my eye
i could see you walking towards me
i was on the table when you walked right past me
but you knew i was there
but, i could tell you needed me so
please, don't let me be the initiator
please, don't let me be the initiator
please, i wanna be the lucky one
please, i wanna be the lucky one
i was blocking out the day until i saw you walk my way
and it hurts more than a stake right through my heart
when i'm not given the time of day
no one needs you
as much as i do
well i'm open arms and ears for you again
but this time
please, don't let me be the initiator
please, don't let me be the initiator
please, i wanna be the lucky one
please, i wanna be the lucky one
please, don't let me be the initiator
please, don't let me be the initiator
please, i wanna be the lucky one
please, i wanna be the lucky one
but i made the mistake of thinking
you were disappointed
or something

A Perfect Life
03:49
|

got too close to your skin again
you couldn't be more desperate
dead flowers and cigarettes
was all i could smell on your dress
back in the nutshell, who's that guy?
you're looking me over, have i caught your eye?
and it the end you will find all the time you waste you won't get back
and no one here wants to fight
so just leave her with me and nobody gets hurt
"nothing like a good sentiment to block out the rest of the day
nothing like a good sentiment to work at your own pace"
that's what he said when he raised his fist
aimed at my stomach but i moved and he missed
sick of the way
you never run away
sick of the way
and in the end you will find all the time you waste you won't get back
and no one here wants to fight
so just leave her with me and nobody gets hurt

Notes
04:25
|
|||
i'm not too careful with whats in my head
but don't you feel nervous with the man in your bed?
with smoke in your hair, we're staying up late
its never forever, but what if we wait?
'cause i feel the words i can't talk
and i fear the love has expired
when i feel like this definitely could be the end
well i'll check my notes
and i'll hold you til i leave tomorrow
i'm clenching my fists while boarding the plane
to hold onto something that's never remained
and i feel i'm slipping from view
but you know i'd never hurt you
'cause the girls in this town all continually fail me
so i'll stick with you
i won't play it down
i won't play it down again
and though we're apart
we'll stay together
can i use the word together yet?
when i feel the words i can't talk
when i fear the love has expired
when i feel like this definitely could be the end
well i'll check my notes
i won't play it down
i won't play it down
i won't play it down
i'll repeat the thing you said

What Am I Gonna Do?
08:11
|
|||
what am i gonna do when i feel alone with you?
(a patient liar in love tonight)
what am i gonna say when i don't wanna feel that way?
(a patient liar in love with the night)
i saved my money for
all the flowers at your door
but they're in the way
holding out
hidden in boxes
i'm scratching in your name
what am i gonna do when i just wanna talk to you?
(just make a list of everything wrong)
what am i gonna say when i don't wanna feel that way?
(just make some songs, drink wine with a smoke)
i'm sober and i'm poor
from the flowers at your door
but they're in your way
sketching out
sat down with my head in my hands from this
monkey driven place
i've worked for nothing at all
i've got places to go, i've got people to see
but i can't make the effort cause i'll succumb to the sea
of brainwashed conformists that don't question a thing
so i'll stay here forever if its only me
make way for the enemy
to hurt you
console you
get up
e n n u i and you
are falling down
e n n u i and you
are together now
whats in it for my heart?
it don't beat the way it used to
there's nothing i can do
to make you proud
cause e n n u i and you
are falling down
whats in it for my heart?
it don't beat the way it used to
whats in it for my heart?
it don't beat the way it used to
so make way
make way for the enemy
make way for the enemy
