So you're ready to move? We're beginning the fast track to the last laugh When you're ready to move I'll be ready to slow dance to your love lapse An addiction to your lips I can't ignore You could do me a favor, though, by killing the countdown to the day Not addicted to your lips anymore I'm guilty of stealing your kiss, your car, and your money I'm guilty of stealing your kiss, your car, and your money And my love with your rolled eyes goes bye bye I'm guilty of stealing your kiss, your car, and your money It was after the fact that we're not going back I can't repeat myself by hanging out with people I miss, hanging out with people I miss hanging out with people I miss I can't repeat myself by hanging out with people I miss, hanging out with people I miss hanging out with people I miss So you're ready to move, we're having fun (hanging out with people I miss) So you're ready to lose what has undone (hanging out with people I miss) I can't repeat myself, so steal my heart and shoot me with your gun (I can't repeat myself by hanging out with people) So you're ready to move, but just for fun (I miss hanging out with people I miss) So you're ready to choose the other one I can't repeat myself, so steal my heart and shoot me with your gun

[Verse 1] Happiness unsated You should bathe in the sober sun I'm over it Sadness saturated When she leapt into flight for fun I'm over it [Chorus] That's 'cause I'm a star, and you're not And in love, I forgot Never slow to depart In a cold, hazy dust [Verse 2] Maybe I'm frustrated I can't walk through my golden days I'm over it Karma doesn't like it When I hold an unshaken gaze I'm over it [Bridge] Way to go there I'm dramatic, so dramatic Oh, way to go there I'm dramatic, so dramatic Oh, way to go there I'm dramatic, so dramatic Oh, way to go there I'm dramatic, so dramatic [Chorus] That's 'cause I'm a star, and you're not And in love, I forgot Never slow to depart In a cold, hazy dust I'm a star, and you're not And the love, I forgot Never slow to depart In a cold, hazy dust

[Verse 1] This time, instead of a serenade I can't help from running my mouth [Break] And I want to say too, anyways We're a bad mirage [Verse 2] Lovely are the men I mourn Pathetic, their semi-nude hearts [Break] And I want to say too, anyways It's a sabotage [Chorus] Come on, come on Do it anyway (Come on, come on, do it anyway) Vandals are your love obstruction Sort it for your sake Come on, come on Do it anyway (Come on, come on, do it anyway) Vandals offer love destruction Now you're wide awake [Verse 3] This time, I better move on for good I've had it, my counterfeit crush [Break] And I want to say too, anyways You're a bad mirage [Verse 4] Lonely are the men adored Magnetic, with styrofoam hearts [Break] And I want to say too, anyways It's a sabotage And I want to say too, anyways [Chorus] Come on, come on Do it anyway Don't be bitter For a vandal a chance at romance is okay Now you're wide awake Come on, come on (Do it anyway) Come on, come on (Do it anyway) Don't second guess Now you're wide awake Come on, come on (Do it anyway) Come on, come on (Do it anyway) Don't second guess Now you're wide awake

[Intro] Where it all went wrong for better [Chorus] Vandalize my pride, my guise I don't have to go Pretend the band's not broke Surprise, I lied, the anger dies I don't wanna know The end, the facts, the joke [Verse 1] It's a callback to any old cliché When you play me head to toe But the moments touch and go [Verse 2] Does he feel? Is he locked In a box when he talks Does he dance out of time? Or wear coats in July? [Verse 3] Is he real? Is he hot? Does he think? Probably not When he walks home at night Will the wolves have a bite? [Chorus] Vandalize my pride, my guise I don't have to go Pretend the band's not broke Surprise, I lied, the anger dies I don't wanna know The end, the facts, the joke

[Verse] Subtle not seen, coquette in dreams To not sugarcoat, well, you're missing out Evenings of heat, grinding my teeth Oh, you just love when they're making out [Chorus] And I know the collective consensus was no you and us It doesn't have to change for once But I hope it does [Verse 2] How does it taste, drained of all grace? I'm a mess, but I'm also a failure, alone, and depressed I'm a blank face, I'm a mistake I'm the evil that's roaming your garden and chasing the snake [Chorus] I'm counting the seconds till somebody mentions your name It doesn't have to change for once But I hope it does This solipsist's sorry this mess couldn't bring you more fun It doesn't have to change Oh, but I hope it does
