What's It to You

been thinking about Mile street
where the thinking's kinda slippery and i
got to thinking all the things to you i wouldn't be and
you said it once
you said it twice
dad always gave the same advice
you told me then
you told me then
i never tried to listen
(chorus)
was there something you
you might have left in your old room
why do problems then
feel like my only good friends left
i'm drinking you
my problem's you
i'll love most anything you do
it's nothing new
it's nothing new
but what's it to you?
been thinking bout the popscene
thinking bout the kinda girls i'd meet and i
started thinking bout nought 0 five
got me thinking about you and me tonight
you said it once
you said it twice
i'm fucking sick of your advice
you warned me then
you warned me then
i never once believed in it
(chorus)
was there something you
you might have left in your old room
why do problems then
feel like my only good friends left
i'm drinking you
my problem's you
i'll love most anything you do
it's nothing new
it's nothing new
and it sounds like
(instrumental bridge)
(chorus)
was there something you
you might have left in your old room
why do problems then
feel like my only good friends left
i'm drinking you
my problem's you
i'll love most anything you do
it's nothing new
it's nothing new
but what's it to you?

(chorus)
our feet on broad street i
know we don't mean that much to you
but we got a saying goes
we've got no plans to see this through
give it up give it up give it up
for the same old lines
just one more time
it's true
your songs were sing along songs
but no one thought to sing with you
coming back you ignored all the signs at 22 now you
show your cheek by looking
for a single light for you
(chorus)
our feet on broad street i
know we don't mean that much to you
but we got a saying goes
we've got no plans to see this through
once was a moment i
i watched me walk away from you
now i could coat it but
i'll dig us further with the truth
fill it up drink it up turn it up
it's my Hallelujah
to delude it's true
long as they never hear it
i've got my 4/4 timed excuse
coming at you now
our charts don't count to 902 but
we all need blue collars
that's how the math works out for you
(instrumental break)
(chorus)
our feet on broad street i
know we don't mean that much to you
but we got a saying goes
we've got no plans to see this through
once was a moment i
i watched me walk away from you
now i could coat it but
but don't you know
(bridge)
it's just the way
the money's spent before the rent
it's the way
the damage done after the sun
it's just the way
we never lived the way they did
it's just the weight
you're godsent
good for decades i assessed
you played along
through every song
for every second guess
you're godsent
good for decades i assessed
you played along
through every song
for every second guess
(chorus)
our feet on broad street i
know we don't mean that much to you
but we got a saying goes
we've got no plans to see this through
once was a moment i
i watched me walk away from you
now i could coat it but
i'll dig us further with the truth
our feet on broad street i
we got a saying yeah
our feet on broad street i
know we don't mean a thing to you
but we got a saying goes
no we don't have to see this through

Golden Hour
03:38
|
|||
you put the call in found a way to trick em'
i barely slept but i'm up for it
now we're swearing one and wine and four it comes to two
but it's five
picking out the right song for the bridge
the spark of calling out the water's edge
you swore you won't sleep
and then you always sleep
but it's fine
(prechorus)
daydrink and tripping to the perfect tune
now who were his friends we split an awkward room
still cracking you up over our favorite food
it's just you and i
(chorus)
you're kinda drunk in that photograph
i'm still hungover but you made me laugh
i'd give forever
what i'd give to just go back
the smell of summer it was all we need
the golden hour framing everything
i'll live forever
when life was just you and me
i'm gonna miss ya when it comes to get ya
the fortune and fame on a one way train
while i'm sleeping in the middle of the day
but you swear that it's fine
finding solace in my own timeline
then arguing over lines in the sky
til he settled it back from the grind
so compartmentalized
(prechorus)
have you found your place
with someone next to you
well it's hard to say
who cared at 22
we got all the money
with nothing to do
it's just gone gone gone
(chorus)
(interlude)
(chorus)
+
i'll live forever
when life was just you and me

That Room
03:47
|
|||
the time i think it's gonna take for me
is more than the time you're gonna give to me
but that's more than you know
than you'll ever know
so i'll leave you for his show
the time i think you're gonna give to me
will fill my pockets well beyond the weeks
the few that we'd know
the only we'd know
but we'll always have my show (sure)
(prechorus)
so write it off and check it off
yeah take it off your list
and paint the walls with all the laws
that brought you both to this
but there's some honor when you bother
these words leave your lips
and after all
after all you know
i followed every road
(chorus)
to lj and bonnie
your friends that don't want me
(well i just assumed, after all)
i never left that fucking room
i never left that fucking room
i make my bed up maybe once a week
i make my head up every time you speak
but that's more than you know
than you'll ever know
cos i keep these moves so close
(prechorus)
so write it off and check it off
yeah take it off your list
and paint the walls with all the laws
that brought you both to this
but there's some honor when you bother
these words leave your lips
and after all
after all we know
that well my only hope
(chorus)
was lj and bonnie
your friends that don't want me
(well i just assumed, after all)
i never left that fucking room
i never left that fucking...
yeah lj and bonnie
those friends that don't want me
(but i couldn't prove, after all)
i never left that fucking room
i never left that fucking room
(bridge)
i can't believe the things i think every night
like if one of them should die
is the other right behind
and all the things that i can't push out from my mind
should i cut you from my life
can i live inside a lie
nod and say i'm doing fine now
(i never left that fucking room)
then i guess it's not a lie
(chorus)
lj and bonnie
your friends that don't want me
(well i just assumed, after all)
i never left that fucking...
yeah lj and bonnie
your friends that don't want me
(but i couldn't prove, after all)
i never left that fucking room
i never left that fucking room
why can't i leave that fucking room?

Two Small Words
02:49
|
|||
give me this moment
from down deep within my throat
i found a poor excuse for loneliness
and a way i could cope
won't say your best friend isn't coming
but i can read out your mind
i can be what you need in me
but i won't make it through the night
and i know
and while i was waiting
for a dream that i could crack
i used my poor excuse for loneliness
to touch down until i crashed
i made a mess of my ex-lovers
in a world you could die
i made one hell of a one man army
running far from the fight
and i know
the best you can do is right behind
yeah i know
i haven't measured these quite right
(coda)
so for this next trick
i wanna mean it
the plot was flimsy til the summer when you'd come around
and
don't have a best friend
not like you meant it
that tends to happen when you put yourself in two small words
and
now for my last trick
i'm gonna mean it
the plot was flimsy but it came together in the end and
don't have a best friend
not like you mentioned
that tends to happen when you put yourself in two small words
and
