zero expectations
02:22

I had zero expectations, zero and some were bad
Get over that notion, cuz every oceans filled with plastic
trash out on the sidewalk, but nobody seems to mind
Staring at the advertisements, but they
just want your money buy buy buy/
But I did everything I was supposed to do
Crossed it all off of my list
In my heart and in my head and in my eyes I was good
Why did no one notice this?/
Goody goody two shoes
Too good for u
Not having a clue, and walking out
Goody goody two shoes, too good for you
Wearing denim and blue/
Kick under the table, picking at the candles wax
Yeah I was your runner up
now I’m all yours baby why can’t we relax
Out in the backyard, it’s 60 when it shouldn’t be
Yeah we’ll have more disasters
but just drink more water, wear more sunscreen/
Everything I was supposed to do
Crossed it all off of my list
In my heart and in my head and in my eyes I was good
Why did no one notice this?

frog baby
02:57
|

90 percent I’m sure I’m right
forced myself into thinking you’d always be my type
Constantly worried I am wrong
Stayed patiently in the shadow for far too long/
Welcome to the club
Of being a frog in the water
I guess I might be green
Young and naive
Like a frog baby
With long long long long long sleeves/
I turn my lights off every night
Don’t buy new clothes each season it’s just not right
too polite afraid that I’ll fall
Need one two three opinions before I think at all/
Welcome to the club
Of being one big baby
I guess I was just born
Young and naive
With the soft soft soft soft soft cheeks/
Pick a scab and flick it to the floor
Is it still your dust that lies in the cracks of the floorboards
Alleyways and street lamps survive the end of the world
Find comfort in the treetops from my third story window

popsicle
02:54
|

I’m chewing on a skinny straw
Waiting on for the ice to melt
Chain smokers and gossipers stand out in front
so they can show their face/
Get up late shoulders slumping they’re holding so much weight/
Ooooo count on one hand and mouth a whisper
Ooooo waiting on someone to scoot over/
Play the show
And I’m trying to forget
Staring at the wall by the pinball/
After your set I walk fast to your house
you couldn’t follow me then how could you follow me now/
Cut off your hair just like a different person
I wanna feel close but I’m asking way too many questions/
Ooooo standing there by the garden
Ooooo standing there don’t look me in the eye
Play the show and I’m trying to forget
that your legs are like two popsicle sticks

favor
03:39
|

Always doing somebody a favor favor after favor
Step out of my body step out I don’t even know her
People pleasing couldn’t please me
please me much not much forever
Count on on one hand how many risks in one year/
Can I get you anything? Do you need something?/
Love drunk when I taste it gotta have it
Step out out of body step out of it out of habit
Up and down controlling pull my sleeves devoted after one sip
Someone drag me force me to get over it/
Can I get you anything? Do you need something?/
Always, I’ll wait, I’ll wait, always

waking up hot
01:51
|
|||
Hot and ready, you win the race
Stand up so tall, so tall, to show you’ve won it all
Hot and ready tears on your face
Sit by the clock, jump up and down just to wake you up, wake you up

lizard
06:28
|

It’s that year, when your start, you start to shed your skin,
and your feet will peel just like a lizard/
And you scrub, your skin it’s delicate, it’s soft and white cuz it’s dying/
But what’s the use, I’d regret anything I choose and feel used/
Ears they ring, all those bars with loud guitars,
at the end of the night come out the snakes/
But what’s the use, I’d regret anything I choose and feel used/
Toss and turn till your sheets are loose, silky mattress, floral blue, ooooo oooo
