Thought it was clear
Thought I’d got it through your head
But I find myself stuck inside a twist
Eccentric unravelling
Nothing’s ever gonna come save me from
myself Guess they’ll only hate me if I don’t save
myself Nothing’s gonna come save me from
myself Now I can’t undo it
All it takes is an I love you
And she’s coming back
All it takes is I can’t stand this
Lilac
All it takes is her own boundaries
And she’s coming back
All it takes is I can't stand this
Soft as lilac
Baby’s got her head down, track star runner
An obsession inside her that makes her feel funny
I am nothing but dirt in the ground
Yet she sees something in me disguised as profound
Thought it was clear
Thought we’d both commit
But I feel you holding on with an iron grip
Yet I’m not protesting
Nothing’s ever gonna come save me from myself
Guess they’ll only hate me if I don’t save myself
Nothing’s gonna come
And I can’t undo it
All it takes is an I love you
And she’s coming back
All it takes is I can’t stand this
Lilac
All it takes is her own boundaries
And she’s coming back
All it takes is I can't stand this
Lilac
Baby’s got her head down, track star runner
An obsession inside her that makes her feel funny
I am nothing but dirt in the ground
Yet she sees something in me disguised as profound
Nothing’s gonna come and save me from myself
Now nothing’s gonna come
Nothing’s gonna come and save me from myself
Now nothing’s gonna come
Nothing’s gonna come and save me from myself now
I guess they’ll only hate me if I don't save myself
Nothing’s gonna come now nothing’s gonna come
Now nothing's gonna come and save me from myself
Now nothings gonna come and save me from myself
Now nothing's gonna come and save me from myself
Now I can’t undo it

I wanna get off
I wanna plague the walls inside of your mind
I wanna get clean
I don’t wanna think
I wanna be the olive inside of your drink
Would you let me?
I’ve been feeling like your sidekick lately
Will you love me anyway?
I’ve been feeling like your sidekick lately
Will you have me anyway?
You say the summer’s on
But I don’t like the sound of that song
The world’s fucked up
And me with it
Sabotage is my best friend so fuck it
I’ll get what I want and get ahead
I’ve been feeling like your sidekick lately
Will you love me anyway?
I’ve been feeling like your sidekick lately
Will you have me anyway?
I’ve been feeling your sidekick lately
Will you have me anyway?
I’ve been feeling like your sidekick lately
Will you love me anyway?
I’ve been feeling like your sidekick lately
Will you have me anyway?
Will you have me anyway?
Will you have me anyway?

Big Feelings

Chasing big feelings
Just so I can write again
Nothing seems exciting
Without somebody to love
Mmm
I wanna sing about how much I want ya
How I want ya, how I want ya
All of the feelings I have forgotten
How I want them, how I want them
Wallowing in my self pity cos it hurts me baby
When you gotta leave
All of the feelings I have forgotten
How I want them
My house is haunted
I’m the one who’s haunting it
I am a shell now
My heart’s made a home in you
Oh, you
I wanna sing about how much I want ya
How I want ya, how I want ya
All of the feelings I have forgotten
How I want them, how I want them
Wallowing in my self pity cos it hurts me baby
When you gotta leave
All of the feelings I have forgotten
How I want them, woo
I miss the late night car rides
You staring at me with your hand in mine
Singing along to “All Flowers In Time”
And I know you’re falling
I know it’s daunting
I wanna sing about how much I want ya
How I want ya
All the feelings I’ve forgotten
How I want them
Wallowing in my self pity cos it hurts me baby when you gotta leave
All the feelings I’ve forgotten
How I want them
All of the feelings I have forgotten
How I want them, how I want them
Might have a great love right around the corner
But I want you, but I want you
Wallowing in my self pity cos it hurts me baby
When you gotta leave
All of the feelings I have forgotten
How I want them
No, no, no
No, no, no, no
No, no, no, no
Chasing big feelings
Just so I can write again

The Mask

If your pain is a mask
Does your love lie?
The maiden asks,
“Will there be danger this time?”
Seeking comfort in the arms of a ghost
Trouble, trouble, trouble
Won’t be far behind
Let the lovers lie In the eternal fire
I didn’t take you for a fool
I see it in my mother
Still the eyes of a child
How could I be a good lover
When I haven’t learnt my lines?
Seeking comfort in a silent home
Trouble, trouble, trouble
Trouble, trouble, trouble
Mistake our pain for desire
Trouble, trouble, trouble
Trouble, trouble
Tracing your outline
To get to the finish line
I feel you etched on my skin
Begging me to begin
I’ll take another breath
I’ll take another breath
I’ve been sabotaging my healing
Chasing another big feeling
Forgiveness has never come easy
But I promise you now that I’m listening, oh
I’m taking off the mask
I’m taking off the mask
I’m taking off the mask
And letting you in

Lately, I’ve been feeling like a dirtbag
Could you keep my heart safe ‘til I come back?
I can trust that
Wandering mind ain’t no friend
Don’t think you know the cast you spell
To trap
Ah uh, uh uh
Ah uh, uh uh
Lately, I’ve been wandering with angel
kin I can trust that
Ah uh, uh uh
Ah uh, uh uh uh
I wanna come home for the summer
I wanna make out in the backseat of the car
I don’t wanna give all of my love away
I wanna keep it where I know that it’s gonna be safe
Please don’t tell me that it’s karmic
Please don’t tell me that it’s karmic (karma, karma)
Please don’t tell me that it’s karmic (karma, karma)
Please don’t tell me that it’s karmic, karma ma (karma, karma)
Karma ma, karma ma
No, no, no, no, no, no (karma, karma)
No, no, no, no, no, no

Never the lover
Always the catalyst
Perfume scent lingers
Long after she has left
Can you feel my love?
Words burning on my tongue
Tethers to your soul
Stoic as the yearner
Adoring at a distance
Watching you dive head first
Can you feel my love?
Words burning from my lungs
She’s the lump in my throat
The reason I fold
Cos to love
Is to face the heartbreak to come
