Ex Lover, dirty text, remember when your boredom has gone I’m left rereading and repeating and receiving it ,rereading repeating and really needing it ! And the truth is I’m tired of sitting in darkness. Yeah, the truth is I wanna be bigger than my sadness. I really really do want to stop wanting you but I just can’t kick the habit :( Ex Lover, flirty text, remember when your boredom has gone I’m left rereading and repeating and receiving it, rereading repeating and really needing it ! And the truth is I’m tired of sitting in darkness, yeah the truth is I wanna be bigger than my sadness. I really really do want to stop wanting you but I just can’t kick the habit :( Ex Lover, nothing left, just a perennial second guess. scold myself ,’that’s the name of the game! When one heart fades, the other one breaks’.

Bruises 02:42
Sentimental value city, fake gold jewelry all the compliments he’s given got me livid faith is d r i f t i n g like a comet I thought I heard a sonnet I thought he was Adonis but he broke my little heart like it was just a pinky promise & there are bruises on my legs where yr fingers were here I am feeling things I thought for sure I would never feel and so I take another drag of yr cigarette & hold yr hand like a purse I own I know that it’s counterfeit but I show it off like it’s real I show it off like it’s real Feelin Lazy on the floorboards, blazin in the kitchen all my words that i have given feel so distant and my memory is f o l k l o r e its hard not to accept more not easy to behave when there is no one to be sober for there are bruises on my legs where yr fingers were here I am feeling things I thought for sure I would never feel and so I take another drag of yr cigarette & hold yr hand like a purse I own I know that it’s counterfeit but I show it off like it’s real I show it off like it’s real and if an ice cube slipped into my throat do you think that it would melt before I choked? i know that its not safe to drink alone so why do i do so? there are bruises on my legs where yr fingers were here I am feeling things I thought for sure I would never feel and so I take another drag of yr cigarette & hold yr hand like a purse I own I know it’s a counterfeit but I show it off like it’s real I show it off like it’s real

Sweet Teeth 02:24
We used to bond over our sweet teeth Sugar cubes until our gums bleed You kissed me first when we were 19 now we're halfway through our 20s Honey are you feeling naughty? Have you memorized my body? Do you think it's very likely we can ditch this fucking party? I can hear you whistling as you walk away I can feel your eyes on me when you're far away It's like you never leave, but you never stay It's like you never leave even though you never stay You always point out when I'm nervous You make me blush and it's on purpose You know I live for the banter My silly heart is full of fervor Can I make it any clearer? You rack my body like a fever You twist and turn me like a pin screw 'Cause you know I bat these baby blues for you I can hear you whistling as you walk away I can feel your eyes on me when you're far away It's like you never leave, but you never stay It's like you never leave even though you never stay I bat my eyes you call me 'Bambi' Fluff my hair you call me 'Barbie' But by the end of the party, You'll be Danny, I'll be Sandy I can hear you whistling as you walk away I can feel your eyes on me when you're far away It's like you never leave, but you never stay It's like you never leave even though you never stay

There are plenty of fish in the sea But girls like us don’t grow on trees We sip peach champagne til we ain’t that shy You've got a $20 in yr pocket and mischief in yr eyes ;) Cheap champagne til we ain’t that shy I’ve got a clover in my locket and cherries in my Sprite There are plenty of fish in the sea But girls like us don’t grow on trees I ain’t a prophet but we gotta keep our eyes on the prize My magic 8 ball said that things are gonna turn out alright The future’s shining like a jar of fucking fireflies Don’t waste another minute thinking bout that girl with yr guy There are plenty of fish in the sea But girls like us don’t grow on trees credits

Peach 03:59
I had a boyfriend and when we kissed it was sweet, like eating a peach I met another, I couldn’t eat couldn’t sleep, why did Cupid shoot me? Dreamt of a new lover, we’d flirt until I relent, I’m teaching him French Cried to my mother that I felt sick from my sins and I have to repent But all I can think about is that boy’s mouth Yes, all I can think about is that boy’s mouth I had a boyfriend and when we kissed it was sweet, like eating a peach I met another, I couldn’t eat couldn’t sleep, why did Cupid shoot me? Dear John, I’m sorry, it wasn’t part of my plan, I hope you can understand I hope you’re happy, you with your new girlfriend, me with my new man All I can think about is that boy’s mouth Yeah i can think about is that boy’s mouth I saw his handsome face, I never should’ve looked in his eyes His leg once brushed my leg, I let him rest his gaze on my thighs All I can think about is that boy’s mouth Yeah all i can think about is that boy’s mouth

Even Lana 02:06
I thought you said it was okay to kiss? I never tried to treat you badly :( I know I did it fervently and maddeningly but please don’t say you wish you never met me I thought you said it was okay I came and left. I never tried to treat you badly I know I did it fervently and maddeningly but please don’t say you wish you never met me. ‘Cause I’m done kissing boys who can’t even hold my attention and I’m done thinking things perpetually making me sadder like the concept of a Dear John letter or a heart as tried & true as leather & Even Lana found a man who fit her better than her favorite sweater. I know I said that I was fine with this I don’t know why I’m so unhappy I know I left you fervently and maddeningly but please don’t say you wish you could forget me I thought you said it was okay I came and left I never tried to treat you badly I know I did it fervently and maddeningly but please don’t say you guess you never had me ‘cause you had me you had me And I’m done kissing boys who can’t even hold my attention and I’m done thinking things perpetually making me sadder like the concept of a Dear John letter or a heart as tried & true as leather & Even Lana found a man who fit her better than her favorite sweater.

July 02:27
Rubbing sunscreen on my shoulders in May I'm like a rabbit, by August I am bolder Plucking petals off of blossoms in May I made a promise, by August I'd forgotten Stagnant air making me restless, completely rosy-cheeked and breathless There are apple pies cooling in the window Do simple sights make your heart-rate fly? Like my bare thighs in July? Where did your gf go? Caught between the devil & the deep blue sea When you found me a 4 leaf clover your hair was glowing golden and yr skin was bronze just like I imagine Paris when he first met Helen, so how can this be wrong?? Stagnant air making me restless, completely rosy-cheeked and breathless There are apple pies cooling in the window Do simple sights make your heart-rate fly? Like my bare thighs in July? Where did your gf go? Caught between the devil & the deep blue sea

My heart it must be ruby red here in this birdcage of my chest all these random things collect, sit to gather dust & lead. When I thought Harlequin was dead, you came upon my treasure chest. All the passwords that you said, must have gone straight to my head King and queens, all these wonderful things, diamond rings Let's have a chardonnay summer Yeah, we can make out in taxis I wanna feed you pieces of candy See how my costume jewelry shimmers? You smoke turkish silvers, & every single night you tell me I'm your favorite trophy Romeo, where'd you go? Romeo? Make sure my nails are painted red & match my lipstick to my dress Smoking cigarettes in bed, eating cherries ruby red And so I do what I do best, count the stars 'til I feel blessed Roll the dice 'til nothings left or I'm the queen of the Midwest King and queens, all these wonderful things, diamond rings Let's have a chardonnay summer Yeah, we can make out in taxis I wanna feed you pieces of candy See how my costume jewelry shimmers? You smoke turkish silvers, & every single night you tell me I'm your favorite trophy Romeo, where'd you go? Romeo? Let's have a chardonnay summer Yeah, we can make out in taxis I wanna feed you pieces of candy See how my costume jewelry shimmers? You smoke turkish silvers, & every single night you tell me I'm your favorite trophy

Adonis 02:13
Apollo I think, or Adonis You make me nervous oh boy I’ll be honest` Cause your slang’s got the rhythm of a sonnet and the stars they are swimming past like comets Adonis I think or Apollo knows a path that I think I might follow has a plan that is sweet but its hollow he’s a dear but he’s gone by tomorrow Just as Paris chose Aphrodite I think this may end very very poorly but come here babe, you know I think you're charming and our 20s aren't for playing safe Apollo I think, or Adonis You make me nervous oh boy I’ll be honest` Cause your slang’s got the rhythm of a sonnet and the stars they are swimming past like comets

Backyard 02:16
In the backyard I say a prayer for all the little creatures, they thought I was their mother Every day I make a wish on all my lucky numbers, I see sequences and patterns and with my diet coke, I take a heavy dose it gets me really close Like a baby smoking cigarettes or a lash against the cornea you are abrasive and offensive I really gotta stop rewarding ya In the daytime I rationalize or blame it on the season or blame it on my star sign in the nighttime, laying down I’m replaying every reason second guessing and repeating and with a heady stare, you say there’s nothing there ask why I talk to air Like a baby smoking cigarettes or a lash against the cornea you are abrasive and offensive I really gotta stop rewarding ya

A Reverie 02:36
Dancing like a little flower, I die and I'm tryna fly south for the summer, I try Passing notes, secret codes Father Son and Holy Ghost Passing notes, secret codes Father Son and Holy Ghost Dancing like the stars on your birthday, I shine get close and then strive to be perfect, you know why Passing notes, secret codes Father Son and Holy Ghost Passing notes, secret codes Father Son and Holy Ghost

Alexander 02:24
Alexander You seem golden you speak to me when I'm asleep and we cavort in harmony You're still golden it's like I'm beholden, completely besotted you're never forgotten Lots of other boys have kissed my lips, but no one does like you Lots of other boys have grabbed my hips, No one does like you No one does, no one holds a candle to My Alexander You see others, you've got a new lover. The past feels like present, I'm livid and jealous Replay autumn, grow lovesick and solemn. Our first conversations, I know them verbatim Lots of other boys have kissed my lips, but no one does like you Lots of other boys have grabbed my hips, No one does like you No one does, no one holds a candle to My Alexander Though my actions might say otherwise, I still ache for you This is an ache as pure as paradise, crystal clear & true blue I'm still carrying a torch for you, Oh Alexander

Waisted 02:02
I'm sorry you're wasted I know it, I taste it You're sorry you're wasted but you're sorrier I taste it But "Sorry"'s not a lover, it's a word "Sorry"'s not a lover, it's a word I'm sorry you're wasted I know it, I taste it You're sorry you're wasted but you're sorrier I taste it But "Sorry"'s not a lover, it's a word "Sorry"'s not a lover, it's a word

Sky Blue 02:10
Take a deep breath, smoke a cigarette. Gotta clear my head, get some beauty rest Realize that he never loved me back He probably only said that Because my eyes are sky blue, and I've known him since high school and I love him with his hair long and I tell him that he's handsome We can draw hearts on our legs and our arms We can open closed doors and wish on shooting stars I feel like I'm still a Catholic school girl tracing the lines on my small, sweaty palms Help me out boy, share your cigarettes Keep my lips red, suck a peppermint Better take it back, or baby, hold your breath I know you only said that Because my eyes are sky blue and I've known ya since high school and I love you with your hair long and I tell you that you're handsome We can draw hearts on our legs and our arms We can open closed doors and wish on shooting stars I feel like I'm still a Catholic school girl tracing the lines on my small, sweaty palms

HHS2 02:29
You wanted to go on a walk outside but I was wearing high heeled shoes So I left them behind. You made me smile when you kissed my hand lightly, like a prince or a king. We played pretend all day that day. I'm never coming home, I really lost my way. I'm never coming home, I really lost my way. They say you are a bad, bad seed But you're not bad for me I blush and call your name 'Cause you know that I can't refuse Honey, it's the truth I love the seedy things you say I'm never coming home, I really lost my way. I'm never coming home, I really lost my way.
