Rain beats down along the path, Look out into a world without you, so big and vast. Chorus: Headache, I’m prepared, Heartache, I’m prepared. I am so quick, I am so fast, But when it comes to your heart, I will always end in last. Chorus I’ve left no mark, Made no incision, It’s like you’re flipping channels, And I’m the worst show on television. Chorus

TV Girl 02:25
When I was a child, kids would laugh and call me Yoda, Because I was short and gross. They’d come round, punch me in the balls and walk away, And I wouldn’t know what to say. In the movies there’d be the one that you could count on, To take away the pain, Cute and sweet, yeah, she’d help you wrap your feet, When you dragged your ragged, bloody-ass back home. Chorus: You were my TV Girl, the one like in the movies, The sun rose when I saw your face, You were my TV girl; Hepburn, Weaver, Zuniga, Now the TV’s off you’ve gone away. I did not deserve you, you angel in the night, You smiled and everything’s alright. But the kids still laugh, and they call me names, In my head always the same. Chorus In Spokane, Washington, the only brown folks to find, Were the ones who mowed your lawn. I haven’t grown much since then, I haven’t changed in my heart, I laugh and I love everyone. Chorus

Hold her close,tell her now that she’s the one that you love the most, Hold her hand, tell her now that everything’s alright, you guess, But is it really, cuz you can’t forget the feeling, That tonight she is the last person that’s in your eyes. Chorus: Tonight’s lover is much better, Tonight’s lover is much brighter. Hold her tight, explosions in her brain like fireworks across the sky, A tear-stained eye, tells you more than words could ever surmise, But do they really, cuz you can’t shake that old feeling, That tonight you aren’t the last person that’s in her eyes. Chorus

You can try to tell me your house isn’t haunted, I won’t believe you, but you can try. I saw a ghost in your dining room. Trying to tell me your house is haunted. F*** you dude, I know it is. When I went in your bedroom hallway I saw paintings flying off the walls and goblins were trying to make me drink their wine. It’s totally haunted and you’re just serving to make me mad at this point. I thought we were good enough friends for you to be truthful with me but I guess not. I guess we’re still at that stage of friendship where you try to convince me your house isn’t haunted while f***ing goblins try to get me drunk. F*** you dude, I thought we were just going to chill or something and then I come to your house and you try to tell me it isn’t haunted. You’re a superficial friend. You’re a fake a$$ friend and I’m never going to come to you with my problems, never going to tell you about my anxieties. I don’t even think I want to hang out with you. This sux dude. Goblins nipping at their ankles trying to get me to drink their f***ing wine, whose wine is that? They made it themselves, how good can that be? Say your house is haunted. It’s f***ing haunted, and I know it, you know it, just admit it.

Fast Boy 02:46
Hop in the car, There’s so much sh*t to do, Got the party and the people and the drinks and the speakers, And the drugs to fuel them too, And if I down enough hopefully I’ll forget all my stupid woes, Yeah it’s one in the morning and I’m feeling kinda horny, But I’m also feeling scared! Cuz I don’t need you to have a good time as long as I’ve got booze and weed, And don’t tell me how to live my life cuz nothing in this world is free, I’m stoked and stoned and I’m feeling all alone, but what else is there to do, I am f**ked up, And I’m missing you. Hop off the fence, There’s so much sh*t we’ve done, Crashed the party and the people, downed the drinks broke the speakers, And the drugs we smoked them too, And I’m a beer pong champion with girls all around me, and I’ve had six hits of weed, And maybe it’s just the chemicals or something, but I’m really starting freak. Cuz I don’t mind when you talk with other guys as long as those guys are me, And I don’t mind when you text them late at night as long as you show me, I’m stupid jealous and upset, and I’m spewing misogyny, I am a douche… So ok, Things aren’t alright but I’m sure that they will be, After shots and margaritas and the bottles of tequila, And a snort of DMT, And you looked cute in your new prom dress but I’m just too blind to see, Maybe you’re right I’m just a f**king awful person, Or maybe I just need caffeine. I really do care when you tell me that I lack all social cues, You say I play the victim but it’s really because I can’t, Take this verbal abuse, My brain is f**king up and it’s sending out those vibes, But there’s nothing I can do, I am depressed, And I’m missing...

When I call you in the morning, I find it hard to breathe, When you pick up your phone, Just outside the Denny’s. You’re on the verge of tears, As I try to explain where I’ve been, That the drinks and the drugs are nothing, Nothing compared to your skin. And the sadness cracks in my voice, As I sit on the cold garage floor, As you count my mistakes and I start to shake, Cuz you don’t want me no more. Chorus: All the regrets in the world, Couldn’t patch up the holes in my jeans, And you known I’ve been missing you, But have you been missing me. And the bottle afar is calling, The whiskey, the toke and the beer, I could live without them forever, If only I had you near. Chorus

Don't Go 03:46
Today is the worst day of my life, The world collapsing all around me, There’s no way out, No way to comfort me at all, F**k, I used to love love songs. Remember the songs I wrote for you, Just to lose you and feel sorry, I wrote you poetry to make you fall in love with me. What a fucking stupid thing to do. But don’t go, Because the people who love you are still here, Don’t go, because it’s you who matters most, And the world may seem cold and bleak, But you’ve gotta turn the other cheek, Don’t go and all this could be yours. Don’t go, Because the people who love you are still here, Don’t go, because it’s you who matters most, And whatever, the problem, I’ll be there, I promise, Just don’t go, don’t go, don’t go.

I think what I’ll miss the most is the sad sort of glint in your eyes. Somewhere between happy and scared, emblazoned in the back of my mind. The sand goes on for miles. Lights out on the ocean at night. Blurred in your image but so am I. But your eyes are closed when I hold you tight. Each night you pop up in my dreams, a shifting, reconfiguring ball of light. I toss and I turn and I lie awake and I wish you were there by my side. Sleep, my only advantage. That small pout is all I have go on. I never want to leave you alone. I never want this to end.
