I tried to play my best new song
To you in your room
But it all went terribly wrong
I sang way out of tune
And my hands shook the whole way through
And you wouldn’t look at me when I was done
So I drank the rest of the bottle down
I said oh well you know I guess I’d better head out
Ran down to the bar
Where I pissed myself to the sound of a sad guitar
Yeah I get around
But it only gets me down
But it doesn't matter now
I'm off to the east side
Where they get me so high
But this I know
I only sleep in your sheet shadow
I only look for you after my show
I only pause when you pause when you pause
When you let me in
Only have hate for the fool I’ve been
Between us nothing but layers of skin
Of skin
I try to get out and kill my mind
But oh my god it’s all you all the time
I do my best to sing
But I play my guitar so hard man
I break every goddamn string
And I get around
But it only gets me down
It doesn’t matter now
I’m off to the east side
Where they get me so high, high, high
But this I know
I only sleep in your sheet shadow
I only look for you after my show
I only come when you come when you come
When you tell me to
Only love like a half-drunk fool
I rise and I fall to the rhythm of you
You you you you you you
Man I gotta stop breathing in all these chemicals
I better call my mom but I know I won’t
I’m staying out too late in this East Side back room
Man I gotta stop writing all these dumb songs about
The only thing that really really really ever gets me down
Oh man oh man oh man oh man oh man oh man
I better get home soon
But this I know
I only sleep in your sheet shadow
I only look for you after my show
I only pause, I only pause
When you let me in
Only have hate for the fool I’ve been
Between us nothing but layers of skin
I only come when you come when you come
When you tell me to
I only love like a half-drunk fool
I rise and I fall to the rhythm of you
I only write, I only write when I get real down
And now I worry I wear you out
It’s on again, off again, on again, off again
Oh my god, god bless my peregrine

I bought an air conditioner with your credit card
With your credit card
With your credit card
And I used your fake ID to get my date in a bar
Get my date in a bar
Get my date in a bar
And I was knocking back the gingers like I normally do
Like I normally do
Like I normally do
But it was scary because I could only think about you
Only think about you
Only think about you
And it’s soccer mom season in the Upper West Side
In the Upper West Side
In the Upper West Side
And I’ll see you when it’s over babe
If I’m still alive
If I’m still alive
If I’m still alive
And I’ve gotten pretty wicked since you’ve been out of town
Since you’ve been out of town
Since you’ve been out of town
But maybe when you’re back I’ll try and turn it around
I could turn it around
I could turn it around
And I know I’ll never see you waiting after my show
Waiting after my show
Waiting after my show
But for some reason I always tell myself that you’ll go
Tell myself that you’ll go
Tell myself that you’ll go
And it’s soccer mom season in the Upper West Side
In the Upper West Side
In the Upper West Side
And I’ll see you when it’s over babe
If I’m still alive
If I’m still alive
If I’m still alive
Yeah
It’s soccer mom season in the Upper West Side
In the Upper West Side
In the Upper West Side
And I’ll see you when it’s over babe
If I’m still alive
If I’m still alive
If I’m still alive

Sword I Think is Love

Wake up honey
Kiss me like its sunny
I know love is fleeting
But my heart it’s beating
Like the thunder rolling
Anything you’ve stolen
Well you can keep it baby
I’ve got uses
I don’t mind the bruises
Or the lonely walking
Baby when you’re talking
It’s like music, sweetly
I hear it when i’m sleeping
Like a love song just for
Me, I’m only just a little lonely
I’ve been sinking lower
Either i don’t know or i’ve not
Felt this type of
Sword i think is love
Sword i think is love
Sword i think is love
Laugh at my pain
Hold me in the rain
I guess that I’ve been drinking
More than I’ve been thinking
And it’s terrifying
We’re falling or we’re flying
Into the ocean
Me, I’m only just a little lonely
I’ve been sinking lower
Either i don’t know or i’ve not
Felt this type of
Sword i think is love
Sword i think is love
Sword i think is love
Let’s go cruising
Red and blue are losing
And we’ll see them later
Baby this is fate and i’m sure
We’ll have issues
More than just a few
More than just a few
More than just a few
Love me, love me
Say you’re thinking of me
I’m addicted, shaking
All my world is aching
And now you’re not so sure
You want it anymore
Want it anymore
Want it anymore
Wake up honey
Kiss me like its sunny
I know love is fleeting
But my heart it’s beating
Like the thunder rolling
Anything you’ve stolen
Well you can keep it baby

The blood on my bed
I’m so sorry
The bruise on your leg
You say don’t worry
Just bark in my mouth
Like the city’s empty
And we’ll go to bed
But it’s already morning
You sing to me now
Your voice is better
Your laugh clear and loud
There in my sweater
The moon through those clouds
Is bright as ever
You tell such a story
That I don’t remember
And I’m in some mood
You pull me out of
Your eyes soft and blue
I’m just shouting my way
Crassly through
This year is flying
As we go to bed
But it’s already morning
And isn’t it funny now
Isn’t it silly just
Isn’t it lucky how
These things
They turn out and around
Walking down the avenues
Standing in a train car
Sitting on a dumb bench
Happy to be
Happy to be where you are
Pulling on a cigarette
Cross-legged on the wet roof
Laughing at a dumb joke
Laying in my red room
Waiting just to drift off
Dreaming all about you
Either way I’ll see you now
Either way I’ll see you
Soon, soon, soon
