you don’t call unless you need help with your groceries
you don’t ask to see me unless you need change for your laundry
i got you to teach me to drive standard in your car
i’ve been driving stick since sixteen – it’s just a poor excuse to see you
i lay on your bed
the pillows crush my bones
you hurt my head
but i just can’t go home
you don’t call unless you need help burning bridges
we spent the last two years in silence but yeah, come over, let’s make a blueprint
it’s fine ‘cause i know you “better than anyone else could”
that’s only true when it benefits you and you need the validation
you lay on my bed
it looks just like a throne
on christmas day i begged you to not go home
i lay on your bed
the pillows crush my bones
you hurt my head
but i just can’t go home

loam
01:05
|

i dig into the ground’s loam to think, search
tugging on my veins, i try to conjure up some pretty words to say
but there’s nothing much romantic to say about how, yesterday,
i threw out your shampoo and cried all night
the truth undressed is all i can give
it’s not pretty, it just is

little things

so here i am, alone to my thoughts
thinking about how i could have been better than anyone you loved
or talked to, or cared for
tie this noose around my neck i'll hang forevermore
but i don't think that i can go another day
without peaking my head through your window
just to hear you say that you want to spend another night with me
and we'll lay there and pretend we're the only ones alive
so they'll let us be

by the beach

the city’s winters were so bleak and so grey when we were young
we used to hide out at your vacation home by the rouge hill pond
the squirrels raced atop your fence
we would lay down when your parents left
in that stucco place on cherry street
by the bus stop where we would meet
do you remember? i do
‘cause if the floorboards weren’t nailed down
they’d have stood up and followed you out every time you left the room
the squirrels raced atop your fence
we would lay down when your parents left
there’s a piece of you i keep with me
a piece of you i always keep
do you remember? i do

miles away

miles away from the girl i miss and, i hate it
would you hate it if i took the next bus up to your place, or do you miss it?
when you say something funny, i try not to laugh, 'cause i hate it
what's the point of being happy?
i miss it
and i'll try, to go on day by day
but i can't, 'cause i'm
miles away from the girl i miss, and i hate it
would you hate it if i wrote a song about you, 'cause i did
and i hate it

the ivy on the bricks outside of your house
stained my shirt and jeans when your dad chased me out
leave the lights on inside so i know you’re alive
i cobble together a goodbye
wait in your driveway make sure you get in alright
i see you off –
do i really have to go home?
leave the lights on inside so i know you’re alive
when they ship you off to lakefield tonight

it's only rain

did you see what the sky looks like today?
is it any different from inside your room where you stay?
retire early to your bed
the only place with more empty space than your head
and when it storms
it won’t be flower won’t be diamonds won’t be lovers falling from the sky
it’s only rain falling from the sky
your eyes are gold from the tv screen
the only light on the stacks of magazines
the only sound in this little scene
the silent place where you’re waiting
it won’t be flower won’t be diamonds won’t be lovers falling from the sky
it’s only rain falling from the sky
it might feel like rocks
but it’s only rain
falling from the sky
