Tonight 04:16
you've done it again you made me scared to be alive you took away my appetite and you're always doing fine you've got it made you've got a man to earn a wage you've got a boy who will behave and sing to you from center stage i don't wanna die, i don't wanna die i don't wanna die, i don't wanna die tonight, tonight but i don't wanna be alive, wanna be alive i don't wanna be alive, wanna be alive tonight, tonight i'm at it again i hit the town just to see a friend we start to smile as we talk again shit, i remember how this ends we drift apart doomed to fail right from the start a lonely boy with a broken heart a lonely boy, a lonely boy

hope cuts through as you sing awful songs about things you never really cared about ice, frozen rivers, and sighs echoes abound through the night things you'll never leave the house without whispers sound as loud as screams but you don't get it, you're not listening if i'm unstable you'll know why cause i've still gotta say goodbye every night still gotta say goodbye every night haunted by the same voice like all our misguided choices piled up in the street caged, my heart is chained to the page new words written every day words i hope to never repeat whispers sound as loud as screams but you don't get it, you're not listening if i'm unfaithful you'll know why cause i've still gotta say goodbye every night whispers sound as aloud as screams but you don't get it, you're not listening if i'm an asshole you'll know why cause i've still gotta say goodbye every night still gotta say goodbye every night

Overexposed 03:49
take off your clothes and show me your scars get comfortable with how ugly you are 'you're overexposed,' i over emote 'your passionate mind, it tends to impose i wish i loved the songs that you wrote but i can't help hearing that first line that you spoke i wish i loved the songs that you wrote so cover your ears, it's bound to get cold not temperature-wise, just lacking in soul 'you're overexposed,' i over emote 'your overcommitment is bound to get old' i wish i loved the songs that you wrote but i can't help hearing that first line that you spoke i wish i loved the songs that you wrote i wish i loved the songs that you wrote

let's go out tonight i need a decent conversation to make me feel alive let's drink too much wine i'm surrounded by these beautiful girls, but i feel numb inside i'm surrounded by these beautiful girls, but i feel paralyzed by beautiful girls all these beautiful girls i need a beautiful girl to make me feel alive let's waste all my time recounting ways we used to argue and the times i dreamt of suicide yes, i swear i'm fine i've got a common sense of worthlessness that makes me want a better life i've got a common sense of worthlessness that helps me get to sleep at night beautiful girls all these beautiful girls i need a beautiful girl tot make me feel alive

this is so regrettable the way you look at me tonight your words are so predictable you're well-rehearsed, no oversight please kill me, i'm hysterical i've had a little too much wine your voice is still unbearable perhaps we'll meet some other time i never loved you anyway tell me something i don't know i was lost eight months ago tell me something i can say god, don't look at me that way i'll always love you anyway fuck, i loved you anyway

Warmth 04:57
you don't really know who you are you don't really know who you want but you know it's not me you know it's not me i'm the kind of nightmare who wants another nightmare to just take care of me you can't take care of me sing to me damn near anything i just need to hear a voice that cares about me sleep with me, i don't mean sexually i just need to feel some warmth, another body i just need to feel some warmth i don't even know if i'll see you again
9.
you'll be happy to know i'm still miserably alone it's the end of the road if you want it to hurt, you should have done it eight months ago cause now i'm a stone now i'm a stone a stone
