[Verse]
He looked up at the clouds
While we did our thing
None of his business
But he couldn't help but stare intently
Sure as hell was over
Wouldn't start again
I know you're always certain of something
[Chorus]
There she goes again
On the nights that we'd leave it alone
Not all filled with regret
I said I don't want a part in this
Although you do seem upset
You're coming back, no, back for more
You used to act so cold
I said to leave it, won't you leave it?
[Verse]
I wished I missed the talks
I wouldn't say I don't
I would've called last night
But something told me it wasn't right
"What the hell are you doing?
Is there something wrong?"
She said she cared about me last night
[Chorus]
There she goes again
On the nights that we'd leave it alone
Not all filled with regret
I said I don't want a part in this
Although you do seem upset
You're coming back, no, back for more
You used to act so cold
I said to leave it, won't you leave it?
[Chorus]
There she goes again
On the nights that we'd leave it alone
Not all filled with regret
I said I don't want a part in this
Although you do seem upset
You're coming back, no, back for more
You used to act so cold
I said to leave it, won't you leave it alone?

[Verse 1]
For the second time
Always need to get it right, well
They said, they said
You came just in time
[Chorus]
Oh, but give it fair time
Tomorrow it's a thing of the past
Oh, but seven seconds?
How'd you wreck it?
[Verse 2]
Maybe it was fear in her eyes
It looked like something she would recognize
It ain't news to me
I've heard my share of gossip on the street
[Pre-Chorus]
She's high, don't be shy
She ain't gonna give in if you don't say hi
I cannot lie, I just can't tell whether she's joking
It's wrong, don't get me wrong
Spreading what you hear is the fault of your ears
Who knows now?
It's just a rumor, after all
[Chorus]
She's telling these lies, and he's falling for them Falling for them
Oh, but seven seconds?
How'd you wreck it?
[Bridge]
"Oh no, not the carpet
You should go now"
Does your mother know what you do when you're alone?
Oh, I bet no
[Chorus]
This is it, he can die right now
Oh, she took him to a place that I call
"Heaven, heaven"

Queen of Hearts
03:47
|

[Verse 1]
Constantly posing, you're a queen to them all
Give them what they want to see
A goddess, a chosen one
The one that'll set you free
Trust me
[Pre-Chorus]
Without a doubt, you're something special
And I hope you fall off your throne
[Chorus]
'Cause you're a fully loaded
Gun that's aimed at me
You're a queen of hearts
The one that's out for me
[Verse 2]
Put down the mirror, babe
And look into my eyes
You'll be surprised by what you see
And don't mistake, you can bet I'm interested
I just don't know
[Pre-Chorus]
Without your crown, you're nothing special
And I hope you fall off your throne
[Chorus]
'Cause you're a fully loaded
Gun that's aimed at me
You're a queen of hearts
The one that's out for me
Oh, you're out of control, and that I'm sure you know
Oh, the queen of hearts has fallen off her throne

I Don't Make Me
02:35

[Verse 1]
There was sound on the roof and
There were lights, feelin' stupid
Feeling low, we all know
Yeah, I crashed on the couch
Onto something, and I know I saw it's alive
Yeah, it's crawling down here
That's alright, that's okay
[Verse 2]
Maybe I was scared
Maybe I was not
You struck me with a two ton sledge
I'm feeling off, so off
But you wouldn't lie, I've got
Some teeth to kick in now that we've engaged
Oh, you and I don't see eye to eye, no
[Chorus]
Well, you're stupid
And I, I'm useless
So that's alright, that's okay
Well, you're stupid
And I, I'm useless
So that's alright, that's okay
[Chorus]
Well, you're stupid
And I, I'm useless
That's alright, that's okay
Well, you're stupid
And I, I'm useless
That's alright, that's okay

Common Sense
02:56
|
|||
[Verse 1]
In the car
I was so upset, but now I'm not
And while I've calmed down
You complained just the same
Jokes aside
They were petty tries at lovesick cries
And yeah I'm washed out
But in pain just the same
[Chorus]
And while the cards all turn you sense
That her mind is made, her mind is made
And common sense can't explain
Why her mind is made, her mind is made
[Verse 2]
You and I
Don't share a common gut
Your knife is at my back
You and I
Who's afraid to try?
My ego is not in the way of your car
[Chorus]
I'm not a fan of sitting on my ass 'cause now
Their minds are made, their minds are made
One by one I missed my mark
Oh, their minds are made, their minds are made
[Bridge]
I'll mourn for an hour
In a state of pause
Stuck in passing bys
And calling my name twice
(It seems cessation is nearby)
[Chorus]
And now the cards all turn, you sense
That her mind is made, her mind is made
And common sense can't explain
Why her mind is made, her mind is made

[Intro]
You thought he was desensitized
To all the pain on the CD
I know you deceived me
I'm sure it wasn't easy
[Verse 1]
You told him on a summer night
That you weren't quite feeling it
Easy to decline
On a summer night
You thought I was afraid to show up in
Nothing but my skin
You were too easy
But it's only 3:00
[Verse 2]
You thought it was ok to go out with me
Instead of the one who loves you
The one you see
Every other week
I'll tell you a secret that you
Really should get in on
We would call that cheating
When you're out for me
[Outro]
And I'm now
Feeling it somehow
And I'm now
Feeling it somehow
By the looks of it
You won't keep away from me
By the looks of it
They weren't meant to be

Yes, Please, Don't
03:27
|
|||
[Verse 1]
It's leaving a space open
Attempts to erase the lens
It's keeping us apart, how I wish I saw this
Could it be any clearer to me?
That's not how it goes
[Chorus]
Late last night, we had some fight
Honest fun, chase the sun
Yes, please, don't look at me that way
Don't you go anywhere
[Verse 2 ]
I bet you would know
Where it would go
I bet it would show
If it were so
Leave me alone
You make me cold
I wanted a friend
I'd trust in the end
In the end
[Chorus]
That's not how it goes
Late last night, we had some fight
Honest fun, chase the sun
Yes, please, don't look at me that way
Don't you go anywhere
[Bridge]
Suicide, death to the end
Of all the wishes that we had
Had once in a lifetime
[Outro]
My, oh my, my friend
My aching head has said
It's not my fault, it's not my fault
And then you're gone again and life's a spin
It's truly wrong, so wrong

Modern Day New York

[Intro]
It's take a risk and move my fist
How low?
A stubborn lick to put a twist
On a modern day New York show
He lost all feeling
Blood flowed down his nose
[Verse 1]
Just so you know
I don't take no for an answer, for an answer
Just so you know, just so you know
I'm not going home without my money
[Pre-Chorus]
A fight breaks out among the crowd
They're screaming now
A swift right hook to his jaw
And he's on the ground
Those shiny lights and those crowded streets
They heal me
[Chorus]
Not that fictional in
Modern day New York, modern day New York
Something that you're told in
Modern day New York, modern day New York
It's time we saw the light
[Verse 2]
Just so you know
I'd never take no
The big bright lights don't phase me at all
Just so you know, just so you know
I'm not going home without my money
[Pre-Chorus]
A fight breaks out among the crowd
I'm ready now
A swift right hook to his jaw
And he's on the ground
Those shiny lights and those crowded streets
They heal me
[Bridge]
It's take a risk and move my fist
How low?
A stubborn lick to put a twist
On a modern New York show
He lost all feeling
Blood flowed down his nose
His nose
[Chorus]
Something that you're told
These streets ain't made of gold in a
Modern day New York
(Modern day New York)
Modern day New York
I'm here until I'm old
Although you can't get old in a
Modern day New York
(Modern day New York)
Modern day New York
It's not a picture show at all in
Modern day New York

[Verse]
Anger is my mask, worn to evade
To escape an uninteresting moment, exchanging
A glance in the halls in the wake of me
Making a break from the ball, but he's taken to
Sporting a scowl in the midst of the crowd
And in doing so might heighten awareness to those eventual
Sordid clowns around the room
That've broken my stride
[Verse]
Space is gone
You've proceeded to push me to the front
In the case of friends, my hand extends
Reluctant nonchalance
Reluctance is my only friend
Unwillingness can't hurt your head
Hesitance can be your end
Reluctance is my only, only
[Chorus]
How we go from longing
To remain underwhelmed
From a dare to a kiss, then a remark
Out of spite, unusually nice
Well, you caught me
'Cause you're right, and you've always been
He's saving one dance for the lately
"You can thank me"
'Cause you're right, and you've always been
(From a dare to a kiss, then a remark)

[Verse]
Stale love? An understatement
Gives in, he stalks defeat, no longer
Effervescent, steps echo behind
Mellow, one can fake it
Renew or cancel love's prescription
'Cause it don't exist
[Pre-Chorus]
Your arms, withdrawn
When our departure's bent
How may I feign dismay?
"I can't, but hope you do"
And I don't wanna hold your hand
[Chorus]
A summer dance, a grueling glance
Wishful thinking at its best
The brightest smile, no wonder we met
Maybe your head's not here
Your love for me says many things
The burning sight of roses, too
[Verse 2]
Stale love, a stranger
Palms are ice when held for fun
And the gloves don't fit
You misread
Wholehearted intent
To miscommunicate
I live for when her
[Pre-Chorus]
Arms, withdraw when our war
(Arms, withdraw when our departure's)
Injects disdain in our veins
(Bent, how may I feign dismay?)
"I can't, but hope you do"
And I don't wanna hold your hand
[Chorus]
A summer dance, a grueling glance
Wishful thinking at its best
Your love for me says many things
The burning sight of roses, too

You Gave It Your Best
02:56
|
|||
[Chorus]
And I know we were kind when it started
I miss it though
Yeah, we paid in the end
You gave it your best
[Verse 1]
And it was all okay
Memories all over the place
Oh, I know she'd say
"What we had was great"
[Pre-Chorus]
Mary, please
I'll open up
Desire to fight'll dissolve
[Chorus]
Fine, let it go
I've been sick of the slow
And our faces don't look right
We were kind, never mean
You can't see what I see
Believe me though
You gave it your best
[Verse 2]
And it was all okay
Memories all over the place
Oh, I doubt she'd say
"What we had was great"
[Chorus]
This time, let it go
I've been sick of the slow
And our faces don't look right
We were kind on the phone
Mary needs some alone time, yeah
You gave it your best
[Outro]
Time falls, met so many lost causes
I'm on the floor now
Trying my best
Time's gone, lost so many
Times I couldn't get between us
You gave it your best

Television
03:13
|

[Verse]
Just let me skip but one episode
And maybe we can see
'Bout what else is on
But no, I don't really care
No, I don't really care
It's over-thought, yeah, the things we do
What you thought was done
Was done two months ago
But no, I don't really care
No, I don't really care
[Pre Chorus]
Now usually, I'd seem a little ticked off, yeah
Now usually, I'd seem more unimpressed
[Chorus]
There's always a fire in my bedroom
When you walk in, oh
Don't believe what's on TV
It's always the same show, too
Believe me, it's obsession, oh
You watch way too much TV
[Verse 2]
12 years old, you were all alone
You had nothing to do
So you turned on the tube
And look where that got you
It's all your fault
I realized I lost you to the screen
On the loveseat, back in '17
[Pre Chorus]
What's the point in a world of laze?
How could I care when you don't give a shit?
[Chorus]
There's always a fire in my bedroom
When you walk in, oh
Don't believe what's on TV
It's always the same show, too
Believe me, it's obsession, oh
You watch way too much TV
[Outro]
There's always a fire, there's always a fire
There's always a fire on TV
There's always a fire, there's always a fire
There's always a fire on TV
