Happier Now

That last summer could you feel it?
Making cuts we couldn’t heal
We weren’t that much younger, baby
Riding high on love that felt unreal
That night we got drunk in the museum
We spent money that we didn’t have
Pushing all that powder round the table
I miss you but I don’t want it back like that
I am happier now
You’re not around
All the good things I found
Now that we’re buried in the ground
I see you out, I think about
All those sensations
The good and bad
The big nights and hard conversations
Don’t wanna call a girl at midnight
Don’t wanna meet her at my door
Just want to wake up to the same face
Not live each night like it’s a war
And I don’t ever want to love somebody
So much that it makes me wanna die
Running barefoot, bloody and so high
Wondering if they’re gonna leave me, when and why
I am happier now
You’re not around
All the good things I found
Now that we’re buried in the ground
I see you out, I think about
All those sensations
The good and bad
The big nights and hard conversations
But let me be yours once more
Let me be yours once more
Let me break up with you, let me make up with you
Let me get by with you
Lets just survive
Are you happier now?
I’m not around
Feel like I am allowed
Now that we’re buried in the ground
I see you out, I think about
All those sensations
The good and bad
The big nights and hard conversations

Beautiful Baby

Leave behind the tower
You know how it does us wrong
I could bring you flowers or sing you a love song
Almost like I mean it
When you touch me hard
I forget my regret
That is so inviting
I could try if you would try
It’s almost like we mean it
Beautiful baby
You say that I’m crazy
And you’re not wrong
But you’re here with your body
Say you made me somebody
How can I move on?
But if not with you well then with who?
If this is broke then what is true?
Beautiful baby
You say that I’m crazy
I think I’m strong
Because how could you love me
From so far above me
I’m done holding on
But if not with you well then with who?
If this is broke then nothing’s true

Sweet Connection

Laying in bed with you
I hope nobody else is home
You say you never felt that way before
Not even on your own
So we do what we wanna do and again
Then I hold you and pretend I don’t know this will end
You say Sweet Connection
I’ve been waiting
All my life to find you
I say I can feel it
There’s some healing
That I still am yet to do
It’s the wrong time
Rolling me over
In the morning
I am barely half awake
Open my mouth
To drink you down
I give as good as I can take
So we go where we wanna go and again
When you hold me I pretend I don’t know this will end
Sweet Connection
I’ve been waiting
All my life to find you
I say I can feel it
There’s some healing that I still am yet to do
Sweet Connection
I’ve been waiting
All my life to find you
I say I can feel it
There’s some healing that I still am yet to do
It’s the wrong time
It’s a crossed line

If You Died

Help me
The best part of me was you
What a lie
I thought that it was true
Keep me, keep me
Please don’t ever leave
I’ll put it on, I’ll play along
Just keep saying I belong
Parade me, shade me
Show me how you shape me
Always make you feel so tall
Never gonna let you fall
Leave me
The light comes shining through
Breaks my heart
What I thought I couldn’t do
Keep me, keep me
Tell me that you need me
I’ll put it on, I’ll play along
Forget you, let you
Baby I will bet you
Say the things you want to say
Diet coke communique
If you died now
I wouldn’t have said goodbye
If you died now
I wouldn’t have said goodbye
Tell me
Do you ever dream
Of me
Being soft or being sweet
Demonize me
Try to rise above me
You said that they wouldn’t care
If they knew that you weren’t there
But behold me
I have killed the old me
Seal the letter with a kiss
My only one regret is this
If you died now
I wouldn’t have said goodbye
If you died now
I wouldn’t have said goodbye
Hate me, hate me
Taste me, waste me
If you died now
I wouldn’t have said goodbye
If you died now
I wouldn’t have said goodbye
