Life of the Party

Can’t see your eyes but I can feel your hands
Unlock the door, I let you in
Let you lay me down, let you fall around me
Get underneath my skin
It’s just one minute
Just five minutes
A ten minute taxi ride
It’s just one minute
Just five minutes
To make me feel alive
I’m the life of the party when I leave with you
It’s only one in the morning, tell me what you wanna do
No games, no names, no strings attached
Baby say you hate commitment ‘cause I like it like that
I got the rest of my 20s in front of me
But I’m too sad to care and I’m too drunk to see
You don’t stick around but that’s the plan
I’m the queen of the perfect one night stand
I can’t hear the music, I can feel the floor
It’s spinning underneath my feet
I don’t sense the danger but you’re just the kind of stranger
I was hoping I might meet
It’s just one minute
Just five minutes
Ten minutes to take me home
It’s just one minute
Just five minutes
I don’t want to fall asleep alone
I’m the life of the party when I leave with you
It’s only two in the morning, tell me what you wanna do
No games, no names, no strings attached
Baby say you hate commitment ‘cause I like it like that
I got the rest of my 20s in front of me
But I’m too sad to care and I’m too drunk to see
You don’t stick around but that’s the plan
I’m the queen of the perfect one night stand
And I got no excuse for losing myself in people I don’t know
But I’ve had so many other toxic lovers I don’t know where else to go
I just turned 21 years old
I think that I’m invincible sometimes
The truth is I…
I’m the life of the party, or so it seems
I’m everybody’s favorite manic pixie dream
No shame, no name, no, not a word
A closeted romantic who’s afraid to get hurt
I got the rest of my 20s in front of me
But I got no idea who or what I wanna be
Liberated, lonely, picking the wrong man
I’m the queen of the one night stand

Muerte de Memoria
04:30

I could’ve drowned in the bathtub like I drowned in his eyes
First night I took him home
It took three times in six months to see through all the lies
I was only nineteen years old then
And I thought I knew what love was
I though it meant burning alive
And here we go again
I’m walking in this coffee shop
And something stops time
And all at once the memories fade away
Of lovers past who said that they would stay
They’re nothing compared to what we have
And every time I look up at your face
I can’t remember how I got here in the first place
But I don’t need to know, no
I don’t really care
I could have amnesia and be fine if you were still there
I could’ve drowned in the hallway with his hands around my waist
And my back up against the wall
Sinking into the silence, questions I couldn’t face
All the times that he never called then
And I thought I knew what love was
I thought it meant falling apart
And here we go again
I’m walking in this coffee shop and something else starts
And all at once the memories fade away
Of lovers past who said that they would stay
They’re nothing compared to what we have
And every time I look up at your face
I can’t remember how I got here in the first place
But I don’t need to know, no
I don’t really care
I could have amnesia and be fine if you were still there
To pull me from the water when I’ve waded in too deep
And closer into you on all the nights when I can’t sleep
And further into something that I’ve never had before
Where no one, nowhere, nothing else will matter anymore
I could’ve drowned in the bathtub
I could’ve drowned in the hallway
I could’ve died before we met
But thank god I haven’t yet
‘Cause all at once the memories fade away
Of lovers past who said that they would stay
They’re nothing compared to what we have
And every time I look up at your face
I can’t remember how I got here in the first place
But I don’t need to know, no
I don’t really care
I’m so in love
That this is enough

No Forgiveness
03:28

Almost a year I’ve been waiting on you
You don’t disappear no matter what I do
I just keep hoping through all the broken bones
Tell me you’re joking, I wanna be your home
I don’t think I can fall asleep alone
Your ghost kept me awake last night but you’re not even dead
Slide to the middle of the bed
Try feeling something else instead
But these sheets keep burning all the places that you wrapped around my skin
And now I never wanna touch you
I never wanna touch you again
Almost a game: avoid and ignore
When I feel exactly the same but I know I’m not supposed to anymore
I just keep hoping through all the broken bones
Tell me you’re joking and let me be your home
I don’t think I can fall asleep alone
Your ghost kept me awake last night but you’re not even dead
Slide to the middle of the bed
Try feeling something else instead
But these sheets keep burning all the places that you wrapped around my skin
And now I never wanna touch you
I never wanna touch you
And if I’m being honest I’m exhausted
‘Cause I lost the part of me you said you wanted when we met
So why do I keep choosing to excuse the one who bruised me?
You ask me to know forgiveness, but I can’t forget
It’s like a tattoo on my chest
Your ghost kept me awake last night but you’re not even dead
Slide to the middle of the bed
Try feeling something else instead
But these sheets keep burning all the places that you wrapped around my skin
And now I never wanna touch you
Or have anything to do with you
Your ghost kept me awake last night but you’re not even dead
Slide to the middle of the bed
Try feeling something else instead
But these sheets keep burning all the places that you wrapped around my skin
And now I wish I never loved you
And now I never wanna touch you again

Stranger

All of your secrets burned the corners of my mouth
So half of me feels like I know you inside out
But it’s been six months since we spoke
It didn’t fix what really broke
I could lie and tell you I’ve been feeling perfectly content
I could say that it’s okay, I know exactly what you meant
I could claim we were prepared for how everything changes
But it’s not true ‘cause it’s just you and I, no we
When everyone’s a stranger
And now she’s wearing your clothes, don’t think I don’t see
And I wonder if you wonder what happened to me
You’re looking at me like before
I’m not that person anymore
And I could lie and tell you I’ve been feeling perfectly content
I could say that it’s okay, I know exactly what you meant
I could claim we were prepared for how everything changes
But it’s not true ‘cause it’s just you and I, no we
When everyone’s a stranger
And I know you never promised me forever
I know you never guaranteed a thing
But it’s still hard to grasp we’ll never be together
And even harder still when everybody else is listening
And you would guess by now if I remembered
I wouldn’t think about it every single day
Because my world’s been upside down since last November
And maybe things weren’t supposed to work out anyway
So I could lie and tell you I’ve been feeling perfectly content
I could say that it’s okay, I make myself feel adequate
I could claim we were prepared for how everything changes
But it’s not true
‘Cause it’s still you
It’s been a whole damn year of you
It’s not true ‘cause it’s just you and I, no we
When everyone’s a stranger

Running Into
05:35

All those songs I used to write about you
Saying I could never live without you
I thought I would never see you again
Your hair is longer now but you got those eyes
Still bluer than a cloudless, ninety-two degree Virginia sky
You ask me how I’m doing
It all comes back
You ask me how I’m doing
I can’t help but get the feeling that I’m
Seventeen again
It’s you and me again
Alone on the corner of this street in my hometown
We’re driving through the dark
And the backseat
And you are the only thing my world revolves around
My high school heart
Starts to fall apart again
I thought four years would be enough
So many things to say
I thought about you every day
Spent all this time running away
To run back into first love
I’ve been different, better since I left
I haven’t sorted out what I want you
But I’ve been ripped apart a couple more times
And I still drive the car I drove back then
And I still write just like I wrote back when
We sat down in your basement
And I played your old guitar
I close my eyes a minute
I can’t help but get the feeling we are
Seventeen again
It’s you and me again
Alone on the corner of this street in my hometown
You kiss me in the yard
And your bedroom
And you are the only thing my world revolves around
My high school heart
Starts to fall apart again
I thought four years would be enough
So many things to say
I thought about you every day
Spent all this time running away
To run back into first love
And I should say I’m sorry for placing all the blame
But you should say you’re sorry ‘cause you said you felt the same
But letting go I finally learned to love and trust myself
And I learned not to build your hopes and dreams on top of someone else
But you will always be important to me
You will always be a favorite memory
I’m so thankful that we met when we did
When we were just kids
Seventeen
When it was
You and me
Oh, you got scared and I got hurt
But I loved you and you were the only thing
The only person that my world revolved around
And my high school heart
Starts to fall apart again
I thought four years would be enough
So many things to say
I thought about you every day
And all the things that could’ve been if you had stayed
But since you left
I don’t know
So many possibilities
That I’m not quite sure where I’ll go…
