The I in Home

In this place, going home means returning to where you were born, instead of moving on and finding where you belong.
Where do I belong?

All those times you apologized for going out and getting high
Those words were empty and we both knew it
But I accepted them like i always did
Tasting smoke every time we kissed
You had a good thing in me and you blew it
I never asked for it, you can live your life and I’ll live mine
You knew I didn't like it and that was fine
And I’ve been bitching about you for two fucking records
So I guess its time I let go.
Feed you to the wolves and hold back remorse
Cause this is how these things go
Lock me outside and wish me goodnight for almost 3 fucking years
So I’ll never feel guilty about what I’ll say
Get out of my jeep and be on your own way.

Coup D'Etat

Is it too late for a coup d'etat to get the fat man out of office?
I say it's time for a coup d'etat to get the fat man out of office.
Man, I need a fucking break, I see the whole world falling backward.
I'm positive on what plan to take to get rid of this fascist bastard.
Impeach, replace, coup d'etat!
Let's go!
I see it on my TV screen, I know what this country needs.
I see it on my TV screen, I know what this country needs.
Is it too late for a coup d'etat to get the fat man out of office?
I say it's time for a coup d'etat, let's get this bastard out of office!

Tennis Court Oath

My therapist says it was a self-fulfilling prophecy, cause I kissed the girl you thought I was cheating on you with, like weeks after you dumped me.
But it wasn't serious, casual as anything, just a power trip before she left for the military.
I knew she was using me, but I let her.
Cause I needed it, more than I knew I did when it happened.
More melodrama to get my head wrapped up in
I'm getting writers' block now that I'm over you for good.
There's no more melodrama here, I don't know what to do.
I was so wrapped up this and that I never took the time to take a step back and realize what else I could do.
Just be honest with me Brittany, am I the one or are you just playing with the power that we both know you have?
Because three whole years of no contact and a sudden affinity for lip contact leaves me thinking there was something unsaid.
So tonight, I'll sleep in my khakis and act like I know what "self-care" means.
Cause honestly, I'm just too exhausted to live any healthier than this.
I'm getting writers' block now that I'm over you for good.
There's no more melodrama here, I don't know what to do.
I was so wrapped up this and that I never took the time to take a step back and realize what else I could do.
And I hope every song that you heard cause of me
Now strikes a bad chord in your self-esteem
You knew when we met what I'd take if you left
Your provincial knowledge and my sanity

45
02:09

Burn me up to break me down
No return when I hit the ground
Enemies everywhere we turn
We'll wait it out and watch it burn
45, burn me, scalp me,
45, skin deep
45, burn me, scalp me,
45, skin deep
Orange flames engulf his name
White fortress to bring the pain
Adversaries everywhere he turns
He still wants to watch it burn
45, burn me, scalp me
45, skin deep
45, burn me, scalp me
45, skin deep
Get your red hat outta my face
We'll beat you down till you leave this place
Fuck you Nazi punks

Strawberry shortcake makes me think of you cause I know you hate that shit
I'll eat it every night until I puke
It's like the old movies with James Dean we watched when we were kids
Just aren't doing the same thing for you
Now I'm trading in my sunburnt knees
For cargo shorts and skinny jeans
This year, I won't let you get to me
I wanna jump through the flames of the fireworks we set off in your driveway
Just to feel the burning on my skin again
I wanna be the one who's covered in your warpaint
Driving 65 on route 13 again
Now I'm trading in my sunburnt knees
For cargo shorts and skinny jeans
This year, I won't let you get to me

Backlash
02:13
|
|||
|
Don't accept their lies
Look them in the eyes
Learn to see beyond
Know your right from wrong
Move away from bigotry, face the backlash
Moving forward, breaking walls
Pick your brother up when falls
Stand against nazi regime
Crush their fascist alt-right dreams
Move away from bigotry, face the backlash
Under pressure, over influence

Ephemeral

Remember those nights we'd lie awake
In my bedroom, you'd play uke, and I'd play bass
Now it's funny, looking back
The times with you were the best ones I've ever had
And now we stay, in my room
With my Christmas lights turned on and the spotlight always on you
It's bittersweet, the melody always resolving on the minor, and it's always on repeat.
Let's take a walk up to north campus again
I'll tell you stories about college and you'll gossip about your friends
And we'll all laugh
There's not a trouble in the world
But 18 hours separation makes the feeling a little worse
What can I do to keep the feeling when you're gone?
In Florida away from here when I feel so put-upon
You're my source, of happiness, everything good
What can I do to feel this way when you leave like I know you would?
And now we stay, in my room
With my Christmas lights turned on and the spotlight always on you
It's bittersweet, the melody always resolving on the minor, and it's always on repeat.
It's on repeat
What can I do?
Cause when I think of happiness, I solely think of you
You've gotta go, 9 o'clock tomorrow morning
But this feeling in my stomach starts to make me so concerned
I can't let you go, so many things we need to do
Before we're a thousand miles apart and I'm too far away from you
You need to stay, I'll fly you out from Baltimore
I'm just so desperate for our time together, I'm always needing more
Now I'm alone, in my room
With my Christmas lights turned off but the spotlight is still on you
It's bittersweet, the melody
Always resolving on the minor, syncopate with my heartbeat

Since you left, the spring hasn't felt as refreshing as it did
I can't hold down myself, much less a relationship
So did the ends justify the means when we had our ups and downs?
Or am I romanticizing broken hearts and forgiving empty sounds?
Every word I sang I meant in those records that you hated
Having to listen to cause you knew that my breath was never bated
And as you walked away from me, I noted every stride
As the distance between us grew and I died a little bit inside
Though the February sun still shines, the skies are as grey as they were
When I walked to class alone and passed by Purnell Hall
Are these words I mean or am I just blinded by the fact
That I feel my sense of self fading as these last years fade to black
I won't indulge in toxic things, I'm not that person anymore
But what I wouldn't give for just one second of forgetting being yours.

Uncertainty
04:29
|
|||
|
I didn't know what steps to take for when I graduated high school
The future just seems uncertain
The last 17 years behind the curtain
when will I get over this uncomfortability?
no amount of college towns or Twee Pop songs will be enough to help me
will I choose a new city when I choose my new life?
or will I slip into the college town that makes me feel alright?
Will I feel alright?
Greener pastures they say wait up ahead
but will I ever reach them, or will I just end up dead?
when I come home for dinner will you be happy to see me?
for thanksgiving next year will I stay in the city?
these steps I'm taking all seem so unplanned
will I fall and lose it all or will I walk out unscathed?
the next four years are on the line
I always said that I wanted to leave here but now I'm afraid again
the friends I left behind
I never said goodbye the way I should have before our relationship died
the town I'm leaving for good
brown leaves pave the streets
grey skies, white breath, will I miss it, will it miss me?
Greener pastures they say wait up ahead
but will I ever reach them, or will I just end up dead?
when I come home for dinner will you be happy to see me?
for thanksgiving next year will I stay in the city?
Move away from bigotry, face the backlash
Now I’m trading in my sunburnt knees and cargo shorts for skinny jeans
Tonight I’ll sleep in my khakis
Now I’m alone in my room
Or will I just end up dead?
