Young & Dumb

I’m so caught up in my head
Do you think about how you screwed me over while you’re lying in bed
I can’t verbalize the mess you created
When I think about it it seems so faded
I’ll just write it down instead
I gave you all of my time
But yours ran out
You were never mine
Yeah I was young and dumb
I’d be lying if I said you were the one
Writer's block pen in my hand
Thought about creeping on you but I block you instead
It’s all so overused
I feel confused
You left me unread
I gave you all of my time
But yours ran out
You were never mine
Yeah I was young and dumb
I’d be lying if I said you were the one
I gave you all of my time
But yours ran out
You were never mine
Yeah I was young and dumb
I’d be lying if I said you were the one
I gave you all of my time
But yours ran out
You were never mine
Yeah I was young and dumb
I’d be lying if I said you were the one

Colder Nights

Unsaid, feels like all we talk about
Unplanned, feels like all I think about
Dipping our toes in the water
Inching closer to each
Other times I’ve been
Too afraid to swim
Dipping our toes in the water
Feels nice, just right, we could jump
In my car
Driving uptown with the windows down
Don’t go far
We’re better together so stay around
Orange crush, new crush, taste it on your lips
Cold hands, head rush, are you cool with it
I want something more than just the summer
Heat wave, be brave, won’t you stay a little…
...Longer days go by, holding my breath
Waiting for you to make a move
How long could this last
Will we fall with the leaves
I want something more than just the summer
I’ll keep you warm when it gets…
Colder nights
Driving uptown with the windows down
Feelin’ like
We’re better together so stay around
Cold sheets you leave with a piece of me
I write it out to set me free

Breakup and a Half
03:06

A bad dream like sickness in my gut
Muscle memory of the road we’re taking
Fewer words, a lighter hug
It’s my turn to do the breaking
We say
Goodbye all time
What’s one more in a long line
You don’t
Make a speech
I don’t cry
I start to wonder why
Our last night before you leave again
I cry while you listen to a podcast
Is this what Camp Cope meant
About lying in bed, back to back
We say
Goodbye all time
What’s one more in a long line
I don’t
Make a speech
You don’t cry
I know why
Now you don’t have to wait for me
To do everything too slowly
And I won’t have to wait in vain
For one damn thank you or I’m sorry
Nothing’s ever your fault is it
This one’s mine, I’ll take the credit
We’ll say
Goodbye one last time
Standing here, the end of the line
This song
Is my speech you still won’t cry

We said goodbye one last time
And I sit on the curb and you’re not by my side
Feeling like I’ve lost my shot
As you’re headed for the coast, I’m left here with your ghost
What would it be if you were here
Or I was there
I’ve always wanted you but you were never there
No you were never there
So I’ll just toast to what it could’ve been
And move on
I wondered what it would’ve changed
If I spilled my guts then would you have stayed
Now I’m fucked up letting my drink think for me
I need to finally let this go
What would it be if you were here
Or I was there
I’ve always wanted you but you were never there
No you were never there
So I’ll just toast to what it could’ve been
And move on
What would it be if you were here
Or I was there
I’ve always wanted you but you were never there
No you were never there
So I’ll just toast to what it could’ve been
And move on
So I’ll just tear this note apart
And forget

Selfish > Helpless
04:17

I’ve held my tongue
For too long now
I’ve gotta say it while I mean it
Before you’re too numb
To take it in
Take me in
My head is spinning
You walk around
Masquerading, self medicating
Who are you now
You’re tiptoeing on the line
Where I don’t wanna know you anymore
Please
Don’t forget
The life that you haven’t lived yet
This is not all that’s left
You’re fading into your silhouette
If you’re not ready to change
Then please don’t expect me to stay
You’ve held your breath
For too long now
Just light another cigarette and blame your problems on it
Take a deep breath in
And let it go
Let me go
I’d rather be selfish than helpless
And we’re all just getting by and through this
Please
Don’t forget
The life that you haven’t lived yet
This is not all that’s left
You’re fading into your silhouette
If you’re not ready to change
Then please don’t expect me to stay
No more second chances
It’s time for me to walk away
No more second chances
It’s time for me to walk away
So watch me walk away
Please
Don’t forget
The life that you haven’t lived yet
This is not all that’s left
You’re fading into your silhouette
If you’re not ready to change
Then please don’t expect me to stay
