Good Thing

I’m into nothing
Not even myself
Still figuring that one out
But I guess we all have doubts
I’m into nothing
But I like to overthink
Take my issues and sing them all out
Pound a song out
Never solve them
And my songs are all too sad
It’s this problem that I have
I feel things too extreme
And I love to ruin a good thing
I’m into nothing
No nothing too bad
Except getting in your head
Where all your feelings are kept
I’m into nothing
No I don’t even drink
But I can make you think you have me
Then I’ll leave
You behind me
And my songs are all too sad
It’s this problem that I have
I feel things too extreme
And I love to ruin a good thing
And I'll spend all night with you
Allowing all the feelings
Then I’ll go home to my room
And I’ll cry until I’m sleeping
And I’ll spend all night with you
And I’ll let you think I’m happy
Then I’ll leave you in my blue
With no trace of a warning
Cause I love to ruin a good thing
Write a sad song in the morning
Cause I love to ruin a good thing
Yes I love to ruin a good thing
Yes I love to ruin a good thing
Yes I love to ruin a good thing
And I always ruin the good things
I’m into nothing
No not even you
Wish you’d just cut me loose
So I don’t have to
I’m into nothing
Cause every time I am
It breaks inside my hands
Now I’m picking up pieces again

Daisies

Financially stable
Emotionally not so much
And I'm only incapable of not rising with the sun
And I like to complain
Pretending I'm a wreck
Get lost in my own head but I always make it back
Ooooo it’s true
Ooooo I don’t need you
I’ll just buy myself some daisies
Just cause I think they’re pretty
Stress spend all my money
When my world feels crazy
Take myself for coffee
Pay for my own issues
Cuz if you’re like me
That’s just what you do
Mentally crowded
Just got too much on my mind
I’m either always thinking
Or I just forget sometimes
And I may be a mess but I’m messy and complete
Don’t got no one else but I always have me
So who are you
Thinking you could cruise on in
Baby I’ve already got it
I’ll just buy myself some daisies
Just cause I think they’re pretty
Stress spend all my money
When my world feels crazy
Take myself for coffee
Pay for my own issues
Cuz if you’re like me
That’s just what you do
Ooooo it’s true
(Buy myself some daisies cuz I think they're pretty)
Ooooo I don’t need you
(Buy myself some daisies cuz I think they're pretty)
So who are you
(Buy myself some daisies cuz I think they're pretty)
Thinking you could cruise on in
Buy myself some daisies
When I'm feeling lonely
Tell myself I’m pretty
With no one to remind me
Have my coffee early
Pray out all my issues
Cuz if you’re like me
That’s just what you do

Earthquake
04:24
|
|||
|
I don’t hate a lot
No just these feelings
When I just sit and stare cuz my head’s reeling
Funny how my mind goes back in time sometimes
To remind me I was wrong
I don’t hate a lot
No just these memories
When I gave into everything that scared me
I think I’ve gotten better
But it takes some time
To remind me I can be strong
I just can’t believe it
That anyone wants me
So wrapped up in feelings
I forget to breathe
Learning to control it
When my ground starts to shake (shake)
And I end up here again
Writing sad songs in my basement
Still learning to be okay
When I could swear my ground is quaking
I crumble like a heart break
I thunder like the chaos
I’d record an earthquake
Just to put in a song cuz
I don’t hate the boys that say they love me
Kinda wish I did but it’s beyond me
Kinda like it when they tell me I’m enough
Even if it’s part of the bluff
I don’t hate my friends
But I still wonder
Do I make them need to run for cover
Who do you fall on when you’re on steady ground
But just can’t keep your head from the clouds
I just can’t believe it
That anyone wants me
So wrapped up in feelings
I forget to breathe
Learning to control it
When my ground starts to shake (shake)
And I end up here again
Writing sad songs in my basement
Still learning to be okay
When I could swear my ground is quaking
I crumble like a heart break
I thunder like the chaos
I’d record an earthquake
Just to put in a song cuz

Grey Skies (Interlude)
01:30
|

|
If I showed you everything
Every color
Even the grey
Would you still choose to stay?
Now that’s the question, isn’t it?
What we all search for time again
Are you the person I can call
When my grey skies start to fall
When my grey skies start to fall
When my grey skies start to fall

200% Chance of Rain
03:26

Another night
One more time
Think I’ll go
You change my mind
Stay a bit
The time ticks
Losing it
Once again
It’s easy counting down the reasons
Why I shouldn’t be here
Loosen up
Brush it off
No one likes a party snob
But I’m a mess
And you're a wreck
I would rather be in bed
It’s easy counting down the reasons
I don’t wanna be here
If only it could rain
Like every single day
I’d blame it on the weather
Time and time again
When I feel this way
Just when the skies are grey
I’d leave it to the forecast to explain
Why I’m not okay
Getting close
Letting go
You and me are just a hope
So I should go
Just be alone
That wind is getting pretty cold
It’s easy making up the reasons
Why I shouldn’t be here
Try again
Here I am
Pretending I’m enjoying this
Staring at the ground
Then at the clouds
Thinking I should head out
It’s easy, got a list of reasons
I don’t wanna be here
If only it could rain
Like every single day
I’d blame it on the weather
Time and time again
When I feel this way
Just when the skies are grey
I’d leave it to the forecast to explain
Why I’m not okay
Why I'm not okay
(Well folks, we’re looking at a 200% chance of rain this week. Probably best to stay inside and not interact with other human beings.)
I’m counting down the days
And every drop of rain
The weather forecast says that I might be okay
I’m counting down the time
The news on channel five
Says there’s a pretty good chance that ima be alright someday

Outer Space
05:09

|
Are you ever thinking
Your head starts spiraling
You become your worst critic
Reviewing your life in slow-mo
Do you ever wonder
If your life would be better
If you hadn’t screwed that thing up 7 years ago
In an alternate reality
Maybe my friends wouldn’t have to leave
Maybe out there there’s a better version of me
Here I go again imagining
Forgetting what’s in front of me
Remind me what’s reality again
Cuz I got lost in my head again
Tripping over things I’d change
They’re calling my name from the ground again
Cuz I’m in outer space
And it's so cold
So cold
I know
It’s time for me to let go
Let go
And come home
It's time for me to come home
Lately I’ve been thinking
Maybe I went too far out
I’m sure you know feeling
When you know your the one at fault
Lately I’ve been thinking
I’ve been spending too much time
Thinking bout what to fix instead of living life
In an alternate reality
Maybe he and I are meant to be
In a different life I wouldn’t be so naive
Here I go again with all my dreams
Forgetting what’s in front of me
Remind me what’s reality again
Cuz I got lost in my head again
Tripping over things I’d change
They’re calling my name from the ground again
Cuz I’m in outer space
And it's so cold
So cold
I know
It’s time for me to let go
Let go
And come home
It's time for me to come home
Tell my high school friends I miss them
Cause I just don’t get it
Why we all moved on
I’d reach out out of nowhere to tell you that I care
That I’m scared to lose another friend
Because I’m finally clueing in
Got lost in my space again
And the sun and stars are farther than I had planned
Now it’s finally sinking in
We all human and searching
For a little bit of love and little bit of happiness
Sometimes I forget that it’s right here in my hands
Cuz I got lost in my head again
Tripping over things I’d change
They’re calling my name from the ground again
Cuz I’m in outer space
And it's so cold
So cold
I know
It’s time for me to let go
Let go
And come home
It's time for me to come home
