Hands, Heavy

"there's no way this will last" as you scratch my back
across my shoulders and up to my neck
with your hands, heavy, wearing gloves and glasses
maybe you could be exactly what you wanted
do you know what you're missing? answer me, honestly
everybody's screaming something different, but you don't have to be a fan of mine as long as there's a song in your eyes
you don't have to listen if it's not the kind that you like
almost everything is sleeping in on sunday morning
there's not much left to see we've done all we can and it's freezing
with your hands, heavy, wearing gloves and glasses
maybe you could be exactly what you wanted
it's over, it's snowing, we're trapped in your apartment
maybe you could be exactly what you wanted
almost everything is sleeping in on sunday morning
there's not much left to see, we've done all we can and it's freezing

Easter Sunday

With my best guess I'd say that nobody cares about your salary or your favorite independent movies
or how you can't afford your rent, and you've got so many questions.
like why does Easter always fall on a Sunday?
I've got an answer for you now
Quit your messing around
Best believe it, always bleeding, you're never treated right
now you haven't had any fun since you moved away from Cincinnati
so much for trying something new
you won't dress up in drag, but you always say that you're open minded
you just can't make a fool out of four walls
I've got an answer for you now
Quit your messing around
Best believe it, always bleeding, you're never treated right
I know you gave up last time
I don't know why you even tried
I hope you keep getting better

you're at a loss for words. they both came up to you at the same time
you're watching and you're looking for something to say
you're just trying not to hyperventilate and then right in front of them
you gasp at her with great adorationgasp at him with great admiration
go back to the day you found your fake friends, don't back down today
but nothings going to change it in the end
it wont ever, never, ever, never
then we'd say hello we met in our best dress
just back home the dog is on the mattress
always wrong your head is on your ankles
don't back down you're sending them a message
it's all clear now
what you want, what i want
what you need, what i need
i want kurt angle choking out my best friend
you want me to think more and drink less
i need happy days without exceptions
you need me to shut up for a second
but nothings gonna change it in the end
it won't ever, never, ever, never
now everyone you know keeps asking what's gotten into you?
but you can't answer because it's too hard to say
you're gonna have to admit it one day
come on i wanna hear it. it'll all be okay
