From, Before I

My head hurts
There's photographs
I've been assured
They're from before
When we were in love
My heart hurts
There's memories
I'm well aware
Though I do not care
For when we were in love
You haven't left your house in three days
"Oh I thought you died"
But if we're dreaming
Then we're dreaming for tonight
You haven't left your house in three weeks
"Oh but I know you will"
Yeah if we're dreaming
Then it might be overkill
Yeah if we're dreaming
Then it might be overkill
Yeah if we're dreaming
Then it might be overkill

Laundry

If you want you can find me
In your backyard by your laundry
Washing, rinsing
Waiting for so many cycles to end
But I've never had a lover so clean
One who washes everything
Who sings
I've never had a lover so clean
One who washes everything
Who sings
If I seem a bit embarrassed
It's just because I'm oversharing
I don't know what is right
You might just have me
God forbid we are departed
Please let me see your new apartment
It might just look like home
We'll have to wait and see
I've never had a lover so clean
One who washes everything
Who sings
I've never had a lover so clean
One who washes everything
Who sings
Come on now
Let me help you out
I promise I won't stain nothing
Me oh my, hang me out to dry
Just promise you won't change nothing
I've never had a lover so clean
One who washes everything
Who sings
I've never had a lover so clean
One who washes everything
Who sings

Count the Laughs

You could make a case
For my homebred narcissism
Count the Is
I sing it sounds like a pretty
Strong case to me
But I’ll cover it up with some
Worn out witticism
Count the laughs
Hey, I’m not doing this for free!
But that’s just me
But that’s just me
But that’s just me
But that’s just me
You could fill a bed
With the people I’ve kept in touch with
Count white lies
I tell when I wanna stay in and sleep
To summarize
I don’t mind most of your merry times
But won’t you please fuck off
Or over or anywhere you please
But that’s just me
But that’s just me
But that’s just me
But that’s just me
The other night
I got so damn needy
“Won’t you be my friend”
Don’t you want a neurotic personality
I’m sorry that I got so
misanthropic
I really love you all
Honestly
But this is me
But this is me
This is me
That’s just me
Wanna make you laugh
Wanna make you like me
But that’s just me
But that’s just me
But that’s just me
Its just me

Say that you what me to dance
I'll reply that I've got no arms
No way to tell myself from you
Please, just tell me when you wanna leave
There's places we both do not go
No way to close those doorways
No way to change those points of view
Said I've been so tired lately
We've all been so tired lately
The ships the ships they will come from the sea
Nobody knows where they go
They want no tomorrow
They'll beg, they beg and then they borrow
Said I've been so tired lately
We've all been so tired lately
I've got two weaknesses
You might be one of them
The other I am taking to my grave
I've got two weaknesses
Hell yeah you're one of them
But if I can't see you
I can't call you
If I can't call you
Then I'm all you
Hahahahahha

Call Me Vlad
02:32

I've got a liar
A liar's curse
And a thief's intuition
He stole my purse
It's what we did in the shadows
That left me bored to tears
But it stopped you from crying
I hate it when you're sad
So you should call me call me call me call me back
Reclaim the weekend
In other words
It was a hell of a kegstand
You should've heard
I bet you made it a bloodbath
Some tits and tongue
You got bit at the party
And then you got it bad
Said you should call me call me call me vlad
Never there when the sun's out
It hurts my skin
In your family photos
It's paper thin
Said you'd stay for the summer
Only spent the night
If these bones are a gravestone
We gotta go back
But if you called me called me called me I'd come back
I don't mind
I'm feeling bad but I'm just fine
I don't mind
I'm feeling bad but I'm just fine
I don't mind
I'm feeling bad but I'm just fine
I don't mind
I'm feeling bad but I'm just fine
But what's the past and last thing I asked you "Who are you and where are you going to?"

Perpendicular
03:24
|

|
In the days right before
I would dream of the days
We would look at our kids
Made of hard work and wood
Now angry faces wake me up
I'm not in this fight to win
The faces blink when we blink
As we brush above the sink
How do they know?
How do they know?
When we both don't know
I take back the times
That I called you fucked up
And the times
We was happy just cause
I replace them with dissertations
On Why: You're a Shitty Person
In the days right before
I would dream of the days
You'd say you'd love me, easily
Now those days they'll never come
And there's years between our lives
But just to be sure
I like to keep it perpendicular
How did they know?
How did they know?
When we both don't know
(Everybody knows, everybody knows)
I take back the times
That I called you fucked up
And the times
We was happy just cause
I replace them with dissertations
On Why: You're a Shitty Person
I take back the times
I take back the times
I take back the times
I take back the times
They mean nothing at all
Nothing at all
Nothing at all
Nothing at all
Nothing at all
Nothing at all
I take back the times
Nothing at all
Nothing at all
(Sell them for dimes
take back the times, sell them for dimes)

Serena

Serena steps out of her apartment
Hoping she don't run into her Mom
She's got no heroin
Love only comes with heroin
She runs
Down to the clinic
And up the stairs
She spills sad stories but they're just her affairs
Serena loves her Grandma
But hasn't seen her since she died
And there's no one in Kelowna
Except for pervert Uncles and other low lives
She tells the doctor
Her Grandma's sprit's here
But she can't let go
Cause there's no one else that's near
She had dreams
They came true
Somewhere between Main and Gore Ave
She had dreams
That told lies
They said your body is broken
Your brain needs to hide
Your body is broken
Your brain needs to hide
Your body is broken
Your brain needs to hide
Your body is broken
Your brain needs the high
She doesn't want your pity
But she doesn't think it's fair
When she spills sad stories
And no one seems to care

Never the Place or Time
03:03
|
|||
|
We grew meaner on the long walk home
When did all these places become
Places we used to go
And when did I get so old
We’ve got problems but we’ve got heat
Apartment living laps luxury
Watching train spotting on tv
And never once did you turn to me
It’s never the place or time
Never the place or time
Never the place or time
So when is the place or time
Expressing affection is so passé
But we both like the same bands so we’re ok
Still not pretty but we’re alright
Could I sleep in your bed instead tonight
I’m tired of staring in dead bedroom eyes
And of you wishing that I wasn’t a guy
So prepend a pretense that we’re doing just fine
And take it all back after blaming the wine
It’s never the place or time
Never the place or time
Never the place or time
So when is the place or time
