Roller Skates

On the night we met it seemed
Like a scene from rom-com dream
When you skated past me without noticing
That we both had matching earrings
While I was thinking of what to say
You crashed into me and said are you okay
We talked about our plans for the summer
And on my arm you wrote your number
Call me
When you’re ready
To get out of this town
Out of this town
Call me
And we’ll head east
With siphoned gas
Or hop the freights
Or by roller skates
She ridin my pick up truck
Bitches like her wanna fuck
Dinner on lake with some ducks
Her boyfriends texts “hey what’s up”
I tell him his bitch I will fuck
He sends me a string of emojis
I send him a pic of his girly
She on xanies and givin' that blowie
Now we’re gallie pallies
Making out in the alley
Unhinged besties
Running red lights in the valley
Now we’re gallie pallies
Making out in the alley
Unhinged besties
Running red lights in the valley
And I’m not quite sure if things are getting better
Or if things are getting worse
Oh my my
Call me
When you’re ready
To get out of this town
Out of this town
Call me
And we’ll head east
With siphoned gas
Or hop the freights
Or by roller skates
Oh i wanna be near you
Oh i wanna be near you
It’s been about a minute of staring at you
It got a little weird once you noticed it too
Hands in my pocket look around
and round
and round
and round
and round
the room

The Banjo Girl From Ojai
02:15

One night my friends and I biked to the grocery store
And I heard a Beatles song being sung by the doors
It went like *hum* "in my life I love you more"
So I stayed outside and I followed the sound
And it led me to a girl with hair of gold and brown
The banjo girl from Ojai
Oh hi how are you
Do you miss me like I miss you, girl
And though you probably wouldn't recognize me
I still remember you as
The banjo girl from Ojai
Oh hi how are you
Do you miss me too
And would you like to join

Down The Milky Way
03:18

I wannawannawanna be an astronaut
I wanna hip hop off this rock
Cause I've got cabin fever
on a global scale
And I won't be lookin' back
when we set sail
We loaded up our dreams and headed for the stars
But I got homesick before we passed Mars
It's been one long road trip too far
And I just wanna go home
(Down, down, down the milky way)
I wanna go home
Because I'm bored of eating paste
And all this empty space
Another ten light years alone
Another planet with no one home
(And still there's nothing, there's nothing, there's nothing at all)
When friction's nonexistent
I'm my only resistance
And while another sun ring sets on a solar eclipse
We float aimless and adrift in a rocket ship
And I just wanna go home
(Turn left at Andromeda and down the milky way)
I wanna go home
Because I'm bored of eating paste
And all this empty space
Another ten light years alone
Another planet with no one home
(And still there's nothing, there's nothing, there's nothing at all)

Suicide (suicide)
Hotlines (hotlines)
I love you
(yes I do, yes I do)
Louie’s on the phone
And Tamika’s on hold
Talkin to the sunrise
About my fear of growing old
Arizona, Minnesota, from Detroit to LA
I got these numbers memorized
When it’s been a shitty day
You see I can’t afford therapy
and I’m burdening my friends
But then I know you’re always there
As a means to my end
415-781-0500
shout out to my hero
Nice lady Dani in the Bay Area
She’s sweet and friendly
And she listened to me cry
How I wish I weren’t alive
and I just wanna die
'cause every time I feel okay
Something always goes awry
Gotta lotta issues that I needed sorted out
Feels like I’m stuck in traffic
Taking all the wrong routes
With depression and anxiety and ADHD
Now I’m running out of money and I’m binge eating
He used to call me on the telephone
every fucking night
Said he needed me to tell him everything would be alright
And tho I’m truly being honest never felt that way myself
I really cared for him so I’d do all these little things to help
But then the tables went and turned
And he weren’t nowhere to be found
Now I sit here all alone feeling like a fucking clown
And I’m so sick and tired
of being disappointed
I form these relationships
so codependent
Know it’s kinda toxic
When it forms a vicious cycle
And I try my best keep it checked
And not be in denial
But the truth of the reality
Is it don’t feel so good
When you’ve burned all the bridges
in your fucking neighborhood
Suicide (suicide)
Hotlines (hotlines)
I love you
(yes I do, yes I do)

Baby Jesus
03:43

in a town where nobody cared
like a shadow, i was born there
and the people, man, they all stoop so low
trust me buddy when i say you don’t wanna know
what goes on
Now enough about them, let’s get back to me
Can’t you see? Can’t you see? i got lucky
I’m the chosen one when the aliens come
and they’re watching over me like baby jesus
are you jealous?
somebody’s watching me
somebody’s stalking me
somebody cares
A dip in ratings in my Truman show
a little crime makes the numbers grow
I never prayed to God but I cannot sleep
since they started putting ad breaks in my dreams
my mask is slipping
somebody’s watching me
somebody’s stalking me
somebody cares

(These Are My) Toys
05:58
|
|

I had a Spider-Man action figure
And his legs were a little disfigured
So I asked my dad to do emergency surgery
His head was on backwards and it had me kinda worried
I wish that we could stay together
But I grew up and nothing lasts forever
I know that certain things are hard to change
But I wish my name was Mary Jane
Call it crazy but Im thinking that lately
He's been talking to that girl Gwen Stacy
And Stan Lee you'd better believe
I'd break her neck if he cheated on me
These are my toys
These are my toys
These are my toys
(These are my toys)
These are my toys
(These are my toys)
These are my toys
(These are my toys)
These are my toys
(These are my toys)
One through thirteen might as well have been a dream
When you're born and raised on a TV screen
I would talk to myself but I wasn't even listenin'
And then I needed you and you needed fixin'
And in spite of everything you've put me through
For an unknown reason I'm still in love you
You're the kinda girl that was born to keep a schedule
I guess no one told you that suffering is optional
And while I try to put our pieces back together
You say I gotta grow up and that you won't do this forever
But quit your complaining your training's almost done
And I know it's draining but at least I'm having fun cause
These are my toys
(These are my toys)
(These are my toys)
These are my toys
These are my toys
(These are my toys)
(These are my toys)
These are my toys
(These are my toys)
(These are my toys)
These are my toys
(These are my toys)
(These are my toys)
These are my toys
(These are my toys)
(These are my toys)
These are my toys
(These are my toys)
(And I am their's)
These are my toys
(These are my toys)
(These are my toys)
These are my toys
These are my toys
(These are my toys)
(These are my toys)
These are my toys
(These are my toys)
(These are my toys)
These are my toys
(These are my toys)
(These are my toys)
These are my toys
(These are my toys)
(These are my toys)
These are my toys
(These are my toys)
(And I am their's)

If You Look Up
04:03

If you look up
You'll see an airplane
Until it's hidden
By a cloud
And if you look up
You'll see the rain fall
Until you're standing
In a puddle
And If you wake up
You'll see the sunlight
And if you don't
Lay off the moonshine
If you look up
You might forget
A little bit of everything
For a minute
Until it comes
Rushing back
And there's no hope left
Of escaping it
But If you look out
At the horizon
That same old sun
Will soon be rising
