A Little Bit Rougher

A year ago you were brothers

You would fight to the end for your friends

But now you can’t stand eachother’s faces

And you speak more like enemies, if you speak at all

 

You’re a little bit rougher, you’re a little more tired

Of being disappointed and everyone else’s shit

But your shoes smell too, and you’re not always perfect

It’s a little bit rougher to admit it

 

What are your post-life plans

You should start figuring out what to do

If you see them on the street gotta plan your conversation

Cause politeness is a skill towards those you hate

 

You’re a little bit rougher, you’re a little more tired

Of being disappointed and everyone else’s shit

But your shoes smell too, and you’re not always perfect

It’s a little bit rougher to admit it

 

Maybe if you made a little effort

If you stopped pointing fingers

If you let your edges fit stead of grating on eachother

Maybe if you made a little effort

If you stopped pointing fingers

If you let your edges fit stead of grating on eachother

It wouldn’t be even one bit rougher

It wouldn’t be even one bit rougher

 

You’re a little bit rougher, you’re a little more tired

Of being disappointed and everyone else’s shit

But your shoes smell too, and you’re not always perfect

It’s a little bit rougher to admit it

Revolutions

Spinning around in your rules

I am nothing but a tool

For your mass destruction

Beg, borrow and steal

Your morals but like that

You’ll never spark a revolution

 

The windows down with new air in

You’re eight years old again

Driving too fast with nowhere to go

But you don’t wanna stay where you’ve been

That something pulling you from nothing

It’s contagious, its the most infectious thing alive

So you take it, while you can

Cause you know nothing good ever lasts

 

Spinning around in your rules

I am nothing but a tool

For your mass destruction

Beg, borrow and steal

Your morals but like that

You’ll never spark a revolution

 

A spiritual movement with your eyes closed

You taste what you can’t see, oh

Licking up the bits you can’t get enough of it

But with the blindfold off you can see its just bullshit

That fireman pulling you from the wreckage

He’s a force beyond what you could imagine

So you take it while you can

Cause you know being saved never lasts

 

Spinning around in your rules

I am nothing but a tool

For your mass destruction

Beg, borrow and steal

Your morals but like that

You’ll never spark a revolution

 

Another flag burned and pissed on in anger

But you hide your intelligence in flames

Your safety is in knowing that you yourself are to blame

 

Spinning around in your rules

I am nothing but a tool

For your mass destruction

Beg, borrow and steal

Your morals but like that

You’ll never spark a revolution

For Two Years From Now

I will be someone

Who in two years

You won’t remember

A thing about me

Except I like the color green

And I liked my hair short

And I liked to make of you

 

I will be someone

Who in two years

You won’t remember

A thing about

 

But I’ll struggle to not forget

The way our trembling lips met

For the first time, for the last time

Yes I’ll fight to keep a memory of you

The way I fight my tears

Thinking of you not fighting to remember me too

 

I will be someone

Who in five minutes

You’ll want back into your arms again

You’ll wanna runaway with

You’ll wanna make stay with you always

 

And I’ll struggle to not forget

The way our trembling lips met

For the first time, for the last time

Yes I’ll fight to keep a memory of you

The way I fight my tears

Thinking of you not fighting to remember me too

 

All she wrote was for me

To be strong and not need you

To know my face to know I had one

All she wrote was for us

To grow around eachother

In a way we’d both be strong

 

And I’ll struggle to not forget

The way our trembling lips met

For the first time, for the last time

Yes I’ll fight to keep a memory of you

The way I fight my tears

Thinking of you not fighting to remember me too

Ready, Set, Go

I’ll be paperthin

You can run right through me

Never look back, never wonder what it would’ve been like

I’ll be weatherproof

You can rain right through me

Never dry off, never wonder what it would’ve been like

 

I’m ready to love, to hurt

To let you drive me crazy with the way you look

I’m ready to love, to hurt

To let you drive me crazy with the way you look

I’m ready

 

I’ll fold my edges down

You can hold me closer

Never let go, never wonder if it could’ve been nice

 

I’m ready to love, to hurt

To let you drive me crazy with the way you look

I’m ready to love, to hurt

To let you drive me crazy with the way you look

I’m ready

 

Set go

Set go

Ready, set go

I’m ready, say go

 

I’m ready to love, to hurt

To let you drive me crazy with the way you look

I’m ready to love, to hurt

To let you drive me crazy with the way you look

I’m ready

Man on the Moon

One day when the Earth melts and we all say goodbye

Just know I’m the girl in love with the man on the moon

One day when the Earth melts and we all say goodbye

Just know I’m the girl in love with the man on the moon

 

I’ve got two hands for holding

I’ll catch your tears like stars

Keep ‘em in my pocket, give em back

So you always know where they are

I’ve got two eyes for seeing

You in your light

Continue to shine

Forever more

 

One day when the Earth melts and we all say goodbye

Just know I’m the girl in love with the man on the moon

One day when the Earth melts and we all say goodbye

Just know I’m the girl in love with the man on the moon

 

I’ve got this voice to tell you

Shout across the oceans now

That when I put my arms around you

The planet has no one else

 

One day when the Earth melts and we all say goodbye

Just know I’m the girl in love with the man on the moon

One day when the Earth melts and we all say goodbye

Just know I’m the girl in love with the man on the moon

 

I’ll belong to you

I’ll belong to you

You belong to me,

I’ll belong to you, too

I’ll belong to you

 

One day when the Earth melts and we all say goodbye

Just know I’m the girl in love with the man on the moon

One day when the Earth melts and we all say goodbye

Just know I’m the girl in love with the man on the moon
