Are you in love?
Do you feel it in your stomach?
Does it twist and turn and scream and burn and start to make you cry but you like it?
Don’t wanna let it slip away
Does it stretch into your throat until you don’t know what to say?
Does it hold you under its pillow in the night?
It kills you with its passion and its endless beam of light
When you see yourself in the future frail and grey
Who do you want beside you when you wake to start your day?
Yeah it’s extreme
I know what you’re gonna say
I’m being too dramatic
But this feeling feels this way
Are you in love?
Do you feel it in your spine?
Shaking, waking, tearing, breaking taking its sweet time
But you want it
Yeah you need it just to breathe
You’re never sure of what trick its pulling from its sleeve
If you said yes to all the things above
Then yes my friend I’m sorry

I never wanted to get too close to you
But now it looks like I’m getting too close to you
My mom tries to catch me
But I know all the back streets
There’s a look that you give me a switch
And my filter melts and the words just slip
Don’t know what I’m saying but I know I’m not playing
You’re gonna fall but I’ll catch you (x3)
Come on and jump well I dare you (x4)

The stains on your sweater
You think you know better
But you’re a child and it’s kind of wild how you’re the one that brings the sun
I can’t seem to sleep and
I feel my pulse beating
I want to keep all of my control but you’re the one that brings the sun

The dimple on your cheek and the wrinkle on your hand
They’re saying how you’re gonna be my man
And there’s something about you
I just love how they doubt you
I never wanted to hold a lie for you
I never wanted to make you cry
But you run me in circles and I can’t keep my eyes closed

The stains on your sweater
You think you know better
But you’re a child and it’s kind of wild how you’re the one that brings the sun
I can’t seem to sleep and
I feel my pulse beating
I want to keep all of my control but you’re the one that brings the sun

You’re gonna fall but I’ll catch you (x2)
Come on and jump well I dare you (x2)
The stains on your sweater
You think you know better
But you’re a child and it’s kind of wild how you’re the one that brings the sun
I can’t seem to sleep and
I feel my pulse beating
I want to keep all of my control but you’re the one that brings the sun

Let’s forget about the reasons why we cannot sleep
And focus on the fun of our realities
We can open up the window and sing with the bees
Yeah we’ll open up the window and scream with the trees
I can’t believe you’re sitting next to me
Just open up your eyes and tell me what do you see
Do you see somebody looking back at you?
Or do you see somebody that’s in love with you?
Let’s break the clock and learn how to dance
I can’t feel my feet or my knees or my hands
Yeah it must be something in your goodnight
I can be your baby
If you wanna be mine
I’ll color in the picture
If you just draw the lines
I wanna walk along the beach as cheesy as it sounds
But there’s something kinda special about walking around
Cuz it forces you to come undone
Yeah true colors coming out in California sun
And I wanna know what you’re thinking about
When you’re looking at me and your dimples coming out
Do you see someone looking back at you?
Or do you see someone that’s in love with you?
Let’s break the clock and learn how to dance
Can’t feel my feet or my knees or my hands
Yeah it must be something in your goodnight
I can be your baby
If you wanna be mine
I’ll color in the picture
If you just draw the lines
Anything can happen
Anything can happen
So just let it happen
Anything can happen
Anything can happen
So just let it happen
Anything can happen
Anything can happen
So just let it happen
Anything can happen
Anything can happen
So just let it happen
I can be your baby
If you wanna be mine
I’ll color in the picture
If you just draw the lines
Oh I can be your bay-ay-ay-ay-be
If you wanna be mi-i-i-i-ne
I’ll color in the picture
If you just draw the lines

There were lots of reasons why I couldn’t have you
There were lots of things I knew I shouldn’t do
Like touch your arm, laugh too hard or look into your eyes
There were lots of thoughts that circled in my head
I wanted every detail so I turned and said
Nice to meet you I’m so happy meeting you
Why, you didn’t know
And I can’t help but think of it lately
When you say my name I start to feel crazy
I can’t help but wonder how we got here
I look at you fog starts to clear
Woah
Woah oh oh
There were lots of times I really thought we should talk
Starting on the stage I thought of what I’ve been taught
Say a little bit but save it for the later bit
You don’t know what he’s thinking about
There were lots of moments where I wanted to scream
Things were looking like I hoped they wouldn’t seem
Look away
I had to look away
I knew I cared way too much
But I can’t help but think of you lately
When you say my name I start to feel crazy
I can’t help but wonder how we got here
Look at you fog starts to clear
Woah
Woah oh oh
And I never wanted to flip it over
If you were stuck looking over your shoulder
But all I wanted was to flip it over
Couldn’t stop looking over my shoulder
So we decided to flip it over
And now my head sleeps on your shoulder
I can’t help but think of it lately
When you say my name I start to feel crazy
I can’t help but wonder how we got here
Look at you fog starts to clear
Woah
Woah oh oh
Woah
Woah oh oh

We’re heavy lifting but we’re feeling fine We think it’s funny when we look at the time I know that co-dependency has dragged me out But I really don’t think that’s what this is about I want to give it all I know I will Cause blueberry eyes seem to make time still We can boogy in the sunshine with some burt’s bees And I know you like to pull the leaves off trees I used to think that Romeo was full of shit And The Notebook was just my favorite chick flick But now I get why Sarah was so hard to forget It’s this feeling that I’m feeling like Nemo in a net Pumpkin Pumpkin You’re gonna kill me Pumpkin Pumpkin La La La La La La La Pumpkin Pumpkin I need you to feel me Pumpkin Pumpkin La La La La La La La We’re cruising slowly but we’re moving fast We both decided to thank our pasts We’ve got 100 lists of things we wanna do But I’m also cool just doing nothing with you I ran in circles on a Monday night You had to go so you could make your flight I looked at my mom and said what do I do She said this look is something and it’s new and true I used to think that Romeo was full of shit And The Notebook was just my favorite chick flick But now I get why Sarah was so hard to forget It’s this feeling that I’m feeling like Nemo in a net Pumpkin Pumpkin You’re gonna kill me Pumpkin Pumpkin La La La La La La La Pumpkin Pumpkin Need you to feel me Pumpkin Pumpkin La La La La La La La I used to think that Romeo was full of shit But when I look at you I think this must be it Pumpkin Pumpkin You’re gonna kill me Pumpkin Pumpkin La La La La La La La Pumpkin Pumpkin I need you to feel me Pumpkin Pumpkin La La La La La La La Ooh Ooh Pumpkin Pumpkin Ohh La La La La La La La La-ah Ooh Ooh

Hey there I’m gonna write you this letter
Make myself feel better for making you cry
And I don’t know if I’m gonna send it or how I’m gonna end it
Gonna give it a try
Wish that I never made that decision
Wish I hadn’t put us in that position
Cause you’re the only one that never gets old
And this is rare so let’s make it last forever
I promise to get better and stop making you cry
And I know that you’ve been through a lot
It’s not something I forgot
But wanna give it a try
And I wish that I never made that decision
Wish I hadn’t put us in that position
Cause you’re the only one that never gets old
Stop before we lose control
Let’s take a breath before we go, go, go
Let’s stop before we lose control
Let’s take a breath before we go, go, go oh
Oh, Oh-oh, Oh-oh, Oh-oh, Oh, Oh-oh, Oh-oh-oh
Oh, Oh-oh, Oh-oh, Oh-oh, Oh, Oh-oh, Oh-oh-oh
Hey there I miss your curly hair your funny underwear
And how you brush your teeth
And back when we would sit inside my basement
I can’t find a replacement for our scary movies
And I wish that I never made that decision
Wish I hadn’t put us in that position
Cause you’re the only one that never gets old
Stop before we lose control
Let’s take a breath before we go, go, go
Let’s stop before we lose control
Let’s take a breath before we go, go, go oh

Wish I hadn’t put us in that position
Cause you’re the only one that never gets old
Stop before we lose control
Let’s take a breath before we go, go, go

You wanna go but
Think you should stay here
Can’t touch my toes but
I can be your savior
I know that it’s been said before
But I’ll say it again louder for sure
I made a promise
I might’ve messed up
I said I’d be there
But I played dress up
I know if you just hold my hand
Then you’ll understand, yeah you’ll understand

Don’t think I don’t wanna hear your voice
(your voice, your your voice)
Cuz all I wanted was your voice
But my head was clogged and my toes were numb
I’ve got a million excuses sitting under my thumb
And we know (oh, oh, oohhh)
You wanna let go

(hey hey hey hey) x2

I know you’re hurting
You need a band aid
You got a cut and
I was the blade
I want to be the thing you need
But I’m just a little stuck in my sorry routine
Remember when we would spend all night
On your kitchen floor laughing about some fight
I wish that I could drink your tea
But some people change when they move to the valley

Don’t think I don’t wanna hear your voice
(your voice, your your voice)
Cuz all I wanted was your voice
But my head was clogged and my toes were numb
I’ve got a million excuses on the tip of my tongue
And we know (oh, oh, oohhh)
You wanna let go

(hey hey hey hey) x4

I love you, I love you, I love you and I’m sorry
And I love you, I love you, I love you and I’m sorry
And I’m trying, I’m trying, I’m trying but I’m lying
And I love you, I love you, I love you I’m so sorry

Don’t think I don’t wanna hear your voice
(your voice, your your voice)
Cuz all I wanted was your voice
But my head was clogged and my toes were numb
I’ve got a million excuses waiting for the run
And we know (oh, oh, oohhh)
Yeah we know (oh, oh, oohhh)
You wanna let go

It’s hard to breathe
Don’t look at me
You’re such a tease
When you start to leave
So stay
So stay
So stay
Don’t walk away
You light it up
You fire it up
And you cool it down
So stay
So stay
So stay, stay, stay, stay, stay
So stay
You make my fingers cold
Get stuffed up all in my nose
My ears they ring oh so loud
When I see you standing in the crowd
It’s wake up time
Get out of my mind
You can’t press rewind
Cuz it’s wake up time
A docu series, indie movies
Keeps us talking all night long
Future planning, you’re demanding
Listening to the same old songs
Elvis Presley, you think I’m messy
I tell you you are dead wrong
A wave goodbye
Can make me cry
Well I can have some pie
Then just tell myself a lie
So stay
So stay
So stay
You cut it up
And you call my bluffs
You act so tough
Yeah I think I’ve had enough
But I still want you to stay
Just stay
Yeah you better stay, stay, stay, stay, stay, just stay
You make my back break
But in the best way
My toes get claustrophobic
You make me so fucking sick
It’s wake up time
Get outta my mind
We can’t press rewind
It’s wake up time
A docu series, indie movies
Keeps us talking all night long
Future planning, your demanding
Listening to the same old songs
Elvis Presley, you think I’m messy
I tell you you are dead wrong
Yeah you are dead wrong
You are dead wrong
Yeah you are dead wrong

There’s a million things that I could say to you
And a million things I know I shouldn’t do
Like call your mom and ask her what the fuck is going on?
It’s as if the last time we talked I was drunk
And blacked out
Or you had some talk alone with yourself
Thought it was me guess there’s a million things that it might be
Do you think of me?
Do you wanna call?
Please tell me that you miss me, miss me, miss me
Even a little at all
Cause if you don’t well I guess I don’t miss you
Do you think of me?
Do you want to call?
Please tell me that you miss me, miss me, miss me
Even a little at all
Cause if you don’t well I guess I don’t miss you
Is there still a chance?
Do I have a chance?
Do we have a chance?
Oh, oh
Is there still a chance?
Do I have a chance?
Do we have a chance?
Oh, oh
Is there still a chance?
Do I have a chance?
Do we have a chance?
Oh, oh
Is there still a chance?
Do I have a chance?
Do we have a chance?
Oh, oh
All my Joni records they won’t get me through
And Patsy helps a little but won’t give me you
So I moved on to write my very own depressing song
I’ve made so many cookies I could feed LA
But the chocolate chips won’t melt this pain away
I guess it’s time to join a book club or the local play
Do you think of me?
Do you want to call?
Please tell me that you miss me, miss me, miss me
Even a little at all
Cause if you don’t well I guess I don’t miss you
Do you think of me? Yeah
Well do you want to call?
Please tell me that you miss me, miss me, miss me
Even a little at all
Cause if you don’t well I guess I don’t miss you
Is there still a chance?
Do I have a chance?
Do we have a chance?
Oh, oh
Is there still a chance?
Do I have a chance?
Do we have a chance?
Oh, oh
Is there still a chance?
Do I have a chance?
Do we have a chance?
Oh, oh, oh
Is there still a chance?
Do I have a chance?
Yeah do we have a chance?
Oh, oh-oh
I’ve said your name out loud a thousand times or more
Hoping to evoke some sort of magic cure
It hasn’t worked yet but I’m not thinking about leaving that door
And when I look on my wall I see a note from you
From two months ago when I came down with the flu
And I want to hate you but it’s something that I just can’t do
Do you think of me?
Do you want to call?
Please tell me that you miss me, miss me, miss me
Even a little at all
If you do no shit I still miss you

You can’t love me so go love you
You can’t love me so go love you
You can’t love me so go love you
You can’t love me so go love you
It’s early in the morning you call me on my phone
You say it’s an emergency so rush to your home
You’re so full of shit well once again
You think it’s cool to scare me just cause you’re feeling alone
You tell your friends about me but keep it on the low
And I tell my friends oh it’s a big no no
You’re so scared but not of what you think
When you look real close your red is looking like a pink
Ohh I think it’s time you know oh oh why I let it go
You keep pulling me down now
Twistin me round round
You think it’s pretty funny huh
Aha ha ha
Your head is so big
Oh you’re gonna float away
I can pop it for you but you might just feel a little pain
You think you’re such a man but you’re just a little boy
I’m a grown ass woman and not your little toy
I won’t slow it down and try to explain
How emotions work and why you’re the one to blame
Ohh I think it’s time you know oh oh why I let it go
You keep pulling me down now
Twistin me round round
You think it’s pretty funny huh
Aha ha ha
Your head is so big
Oh you’re gonna float away
I can pop it for you but you might just feel a little pain
You can’t love me so go love you
You can’t love me so go love you
You can’t love me so go love you
You can’t love me so go love you
Ohh I think it’s time you know oh oh I let it go
You keep pulling me down now
Twistin me round round
You think it’s pretty funny huh
Aha ha ha
Your head is so big
Oh you’re gonna float away
I can pop it for you but you might just feel a little pain
You keep pulling me down now
Twistin me round round
You think it’s pretty funny huh
Aha ha ha
Your head is so big
Oh you’re gonna float away
I can pop it for you but you might just feel a little pain
I can pop it for you but you might just feel a little pain
Oh I’ll pop it for you but you might just feel a little pain

Whisper my sister
I really thought you’d stick around
Blisters and bruises
Is what knocks em to the ground
Warm heart a bad mouth
Can’t help it cuz they run
Blame games seem to always work
But this time it ain’t as fun
Take a slow dive before you let go
Memory is out of control
Some attention is all you wanted
So here you go
Here you go
Play a victim for yourself now
I told you I would help out
But I left it at the door
You still want more so here you go
Here you go
You say you’re so much stronger
And everything is so much brighter
I really hope it’s so, now that you know, leave me alone
Here you go
Eyes sting, my nose bleeds
I’m sick of trying to catch up
I let go and no no no
Now you’re headed for my gut
Easy to say things when you’ve got it on a screen
Let’s not forget that people
Yeah they love to skew the way they see you
Take a slow dive before you let go
Memory is out of control
Some attention was all you wanted
So here you go
Here you go
Play a victim for yourself now
I told you I would help out
But I left it at the door
You still want more so here you go
Here you go
You say you’re so much stronger
And everything is so much brighter
I really hope it’s so, now that you know, leave me alone
Here you go
Go, go go
Here you go, go, go
Here you go, go, go
Here you go, go, go
Here you go, go, go
Here you go, go, go
Here you go, go, go
Here you go, go, go
Here you go
Some attention was all you wanted
So here you go
Hey
Here you go
Play a victim for yourself
I told you I would help out
But I left it at the door
You still want more so here you go
Here you go
You say you’re so much stronger
And everything is so much brighter
I really hope it’s so, now that you know, leave me alone
Here you go

You said I blacked out
And couldn’t catch my breath
I fell out all of my planned out steps
Now I just gotta get it back, gotta get it back before it’s gone
Dad said to play it cool
You wanna make em sweat
Make the rules don’t ever follow them
Now I just gotta get it back got to get you back before you’re gone
When you’re counting minutes, set a timer
To avoid combustion or backfire
Cause you’re the only one that picks what happens next
You say you didn’t care
I know that it was a lie
Cause you cared
I think we both really tried
Now we just gotta get it back gotta get it back before it’s gone
And I want you to call
I know you probably won’t
Should I call
I have to break my phone
Oh I’ll never get you back never get you back before you’re gone
And when your heart is beating pinch your finger
Distract yourself from thoughts that linger
Cause you’re the only one that picks what happens next
And tell me why it has to be so damn complicated
I’m thinking something so why shouldn’t I say it
All these rules seem so fucking dated
I’m a hypocrite cause yeah the game I played it
Yeah I played it
I think that you’re scared of what it possibly means
That I’m not
What could I have up my sleeve
But please don’t go away please don’t go away
Just come love me
And I know I’m not shy
Sometimes that scares people off
But I try
To get the things that I want
Woah please don’t go away please don’t go away
Just come love me-e-e-e
And when your feet are tapping drink a milkshake
Give your body somewhat of a break
Cause you’re the only one you need to impress
And tell me why it has to be so damn complicated
I’m thinking something so why shouldn’t I say it
All these rules seem so fucking dated
I’m a hypocrite cause yeah the game I played it
Yeah, yeah, yeah I played it

I’m a bit confused and you’re a bit of a mess
It’s something that they wanna test
You won’t see it through
You won’t see it through
I know it’s something you can’t do
But I’ll see it through
I’ll see it through
I’ve always pulled the weight for two
I can make you feel it
If you wanna feel it
Cuz I really feel it
So let’s feel it
You tell me come down to my house
Come on down you should come on down

I sit quietly on the phone Trying to enjoy time alone Don’t think too much I tell myself when I start thinking While I enjoy all these breathing without drinking Why do they look so in love? The couple walking by well maybe they’re on drugs Don’t look too much I tell myself when I start staring Maybe there’s something in the perfume that she’s wearing It’s the little things that I can’t understand How they look right past it and keep holding hands It’s the little things I’ll never understand I think it must be fake like a fake spray tan How do you love? How do you love? How do you lo-uh-uh-uh-uh-ove? How do you love? I’ve tried to read myself to sleep It just gives me anxiety How will I know while once we started sleeping I feel the same way about coloring before dreaming Distractions can be hard to find What I suggest is make a list and you’ll be fine Write down all the things you want to learn to do And all your favorite movies starting old to new It’s the little things that I don’t understand How they look right past it they keep holding hands It’s the little things I’ll never understand Think it must be fake like a fake spray tan How do you love? How do you love? How do you lo-uh-uh-uh-uh-ove? How do you love? How do you love? How do you love? How do you lo-uh-uh-uh-uh-ove? How do you love?
