Burner 02:43
It wasn't love at first sight It was hardly like You were there and I was scared So I left because it didn't feel right Light a candle for the years pass You and I clean up our acts Go slow, let's start again Now I know I'm here to last I think I knew you from somewhere before I think I always knew but I'm a slow learner I think I knew you from somewhere before I think I always knew that you were my slow burner It wasn't love at first kiss Not when we both missed I was there and you were scared Terrified because it finally felt right Light a candle, turn the lights off Feel strong but we're both soft Go slow, let's start again Now I know I'm here to last

Prayed 4 02:04
I prayed for blood I didn't see it I asked for a pill Said I didn't need it So won't you take this light outside me? Because there can't be two if there's only three Do we all have songs like this Written in a journal somewhere Never to be found Never to be talked about Next time I swear I'm going full six Next time I swear I won't ever do this I pass the house He took it from me And now it's gone And I feel relief So won't you fill this hole inside me? Because there can't be two if there's only three
3.
Compulsory 02:51
Tell me what's your name How do you play this game Cause I don't know Lightning struck my face And I lost touch So long ago Television actors Demonstrate it must be right But can we change the subject I'll be your object For tonight But I'm all tied up And it feels so strange Like I'm dancing with myself And this history So compulsory I know I wanted something else If I cross that line Will I be welcome Back again Is this for attention Is it real or just pretend Smiling faces sometimes Make you feel so all alone But I won't pick a side You'll never break My heart of stone Where have all the good boys gone? I can't find them, I can't find them
4.
Don't make friends based on band shirts Had to learn the hard way, the soft way didn't work Only needed me to fill your hollow needs With friends like you, you know I'd rather be lonely Let's raise a glass to all the hurt you caused me It made me different, it made me believe Never thought I could go past you Never thought I could move on Never thought I could go past you Never thought I could be ascending I think about what would have been If we never met, if we were never friends Would it all have worked out? Would I still be the same? Would I still be standing here, singing these words today? Don't make your friends based on band shirts Don't leave your house, you'll only get hurt
5.
Gentle Lover 03:16
I want to be more than friends But also still friends I don't have a car Do you have a bike? I left my journal At your house I know you read it I know you know I'd never do that to you I hold you in very high esteem I'm a gentle lover Say that you'll be mine I'm a gentle lover Loving you gently All the time I made you a cupcake You can't have gluten But you still ate The cherry on top Thanks a lot You knit me a blanket It took you three months I bought you a pendant You said don't use that word I said I liked music You said that you didn't So I wrote you a song You'll never hear it
6.
3 AM 03:15
Sleepy eyes shut before I could say a word And I know you don't do this to all the other girls Am I too smart or too ugly or just really not your type? I would leave right now, except the buses don't run after midnight You didn't want to fuck at 3 AM, you didn't want to fuck at 3 AM So I'm going home alone this time again You didn't want to fuck at 3 AM, you didn't want to fuck at 3 AM So I going home unsatisfied again Said I could stay as long as I wanted as long as I left soon So I got my leather jacket and I walked and talked with the moon You get a blue ribbon for being selfish but I'm a close second place Because I walked right out of your front door And I didn't look back to see your face You're a lazy lover and a disappointment But I'm an obsessive and I enjoy it Am I tired of you, or am I just bored of me
7.
Melody 02:21
Your leopard print tights Drum sticks crashing into me Cause sleepless nights You're so smart and funny We like all the same bands But I don't understand Would you want to hold my hand? Would you want me to be your man? I know I've got some competition I don't mean to obsess I just want all of your attention I don't mean to get jealous You don't want me Oh let's be real In my dreams it'd be surreal You and me would be the ideal Melody What's wrong with me? I've got something she could never have Melody What's wrong with me? I've got nothing he won't ever have
8.
Want 2 02:26
Stuble beer gut brown hair Sly wit sly boy potential Band shirt washed twice, Speed Stick smells nice Say the word and darling, I'll be there Cause the heart wants what it wants and baby Well I want you Lipstick nose ring blue hair Short skirt short girl potential Matching glasses and Big Star patches Say the word and darling, I'll be there The heart wants what it wants and baby Well I want two
9.
Half Right 04:20
It's not me, it's you, and someone else too But who's counting who? I guess that you lose I'm not heartless, my heart's just hardened I'm not restless, my mind's just still on him Said I didn't care about anyone but myself Well you were half right I'm sorry to say you were a mistake The fool was at work instead of fate If we met again, got another turn I'm sorry, I'd still be this stubborn Said I didn't care about anyone but myself Oh, come on
10.
And when I leave here I want you to know That you made me who I am today And if I never said it I hope you saw it in my smile And I know I never thanked you For all the hope you gave me You didn't even know you did Just by showing up I can't tell you how much I'm going to miss you Miss us, miss them, miss this But I know that no one ever really leaves forever And that nothing ever really ends And I'll hold the kindness you showed me In my heart until I die I don't know where I'm going to go from here But with that I'll be okay You are the one that I adore You are the one I ignore I know that we're both shy But I think I'm gonna tell you Gonna bake a rose petal pie
