Stranger 04:18
I was booking us flights, it was holiday time I forgot your date of birth, you broke down and reminded me You said people that are this close, can’t afford to treat the other like a stranger Darling sometimes i feel like a stranger In myself In my body When you hold me, this close On the other side of the country, we were driving down south I was having trouble loving, you nearly wrapped the car around You said people that are this close, can’t afford to ever feel this shitty Darling sometimes i feel so shitty In myself In my body When you hold me, this close Save something for myself, save something for myself Said people that are this close can’t afford to ever feel like a stranger Darling sometimes i feel like a stranger In myself In my body When you hold me, this close like a stranger In myself In my body When you hold me, this close

Golden Hour 04:12
I guess our love did not age well So I am sowing myself back together Split it right open on the dancefloor Just to get space from the failure But nothing persists like a love that doesn’t exist anymore But nothing persists like a love that doesn’t exist anymore Ah, Ah I was sure I’d see you by now Down by the oval lights, at golden hour Message me just to say that you are hurting And that you’ve fucked off to an island Don’t be mad, don’t be mad, don’t be mad You hurt him twice as bad Don’t be mad, don’t be mad, don’t be mad You loved him with all you had Ah, Ah Cause nothing persists like a love that doesn’t exist anymore nothing persists like a love that doesn’t exist anymore Ah, Ah Ah, Ah Ah, Ah Ah, Ah

Tank Tops 03:02
Saw you walking down the street Wanted to pull over and say something You always had the upper hand I guess I never had that much to give Now we live in two worlds but the same one Back handedly say that I’m no fun Now she stays out with me for the whole night Body’s not wrapped around the phone line I’m in love and I’m over boys and I’m wearing tank tops and I’m talking to George about how I’m in love and I’m over boys and I’m wearing tank tops and I’m talking to George Overnight, comes on strong like an afterglow Get me high, brainwashed but I don’t fear the low Nothing’s ever really wasted But July, that was a cop out month Sitting home just waiting For feelings to change, for the rain to come Now we walk down the street in the new life It had me all by surprise Cause she stayed in my bed for the whole night Body’s wrapped around something other than the phone line I’m in love and I’m over boys and I’m wearing tank tops and I’m talking to George about how I’m in love and I’m over boys and I’m wearing tank tops and I’m talking to George

Spinning 04:04
You’ll learn to enjoy your body You’ll meet him for a drink in a year You’ll finally see past him You’ll feel your last breath of his fear You’re gonna love your friends so much And they’ll irritate you just right There’s gonna be a stranger coming alive from the inside The meter just keeps on running And this tiny world, keeps on spinning Just want you around Just want you around There’s a candle burning somewhere Adn you’ll look right into the flame And you’ll flutter around a new age of love That drives you sane You’ll get so damn good at parking And you’ll ask for what you need When they kiss you like they mean it You can take a second to breathe The meter just keeps on running And this tiny world, keeps on spinning The meter just keeps on running And this tiny world, keeps on spinning just want you around, just want you around just want you around, just want you around Who would’ve thought Who would’ve thought I wouldn’t of thought Wouldn’t of thought just want you around

Reply 02:43
You kissed me without the warning And I don’t know if I really wanted it The gas is low and my lights are on Your street is the steepest climb And I’m trying to remember if the moment felt right If I was somewhere else I apologise Just a mix of my late night thoughts Trickled into your ear like a fly It went in one ear and out the next Your silence is the steepest sigh And I’m trying to remember when the moment felt right To tell you all I’ve been missing is us at night But is there anything worse than saying something you don’t mean just for a reply

Ego Ride 02:48
Fiery eyes I’m being awkward as hell Still don’t know why You’ve never known how it’s felt To be so petrified Being rained on by thoughts The city lights are now thorns You are a mystery Ego ride I do it just for the night I try it Ego ride Lying through my teeth Just to be by your side For all the rightly Splendid pretending wrong reasons Ego ride She sat on the park bench and told me her whole life About her new hot boss It’s way out of line Or is just right under it So close you can taste it But then I open my eyes it’s just an Ego ride And I’m back to being in the back seat Wanting another sip It’s so typical of you to not reply like this But my sister pulls me back You are an explosive and tolling taxing and controlling an ego ride She held me by my hand And helped me sleep at night She called by my name But never called on time I’m sorry I just left I’m so thankful for my legs i had to give up to start again Ego ride I tried not to fight it Ego ride and I know you didn’t buy it Ego ride I’m coming back to real life Ego ride
