I Forgot That You Existed

Spoiler

Your name on my lips, tongue-tied

Free rent, living in my mind

Sent me a clear message

Taught me some hard lessons

I just forget what they were

It's all just a blur

It isn't love, it isn't hate, it's just indifference 

Cruel Summer

Spoiler

Devils roll the dice, angels roll their eyes

What doesn't kill me makes me want you more

And If I bleed, you'll be the last to know

I'm drunk in the back of the car

And I cried like a baby coming home from the bar

Said "I'm fine", but it wasn't true

I don't wanna keep secrets just to keep you

And I snuck in through the garden gate

Every night that summer just to seal my gate

And I scream

"For whatever it's worth I love you

Ain't that the worst thing you ever heard?"

 

But I could also write every word of the lyrics and it would still be right. jj2

Lover

Spoiler

And I'm highly suspicious that everyone who sees you wants you

I've loved you three summers now, honey, but I want them all

Ladies and gentlemen, will you please stand?

With every guitar string scar on my hand

I take this magnetic force of a man to be my lover

My heart's been borrowed and your has been blue

All's well that ends well to end up with you

Swear to be overdramatic and true to my lover

And you''ll save all your dirtiest jokes for me

And at every seat at the table, I'll save you a seat, lover

Can I go where you go?

Can we always be this close forever and ever?

The Man

Spoiler

I'm so sick of running as fast as I can

Wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man

And I'm so sick of them coming at me again

'Cause if I was a man, then I'd be the man

If I was out flashing my dollars

I'd be a bitch, not a baller

They'd paint me out to be bad

So, it's okay that I'm mad

The Archer

Spoiler

I wake in the night, I pace like a ghost

The room is on fire, invisible smoke

And all of my heroes die all alone

Help me hold onto you

All the king's horses, all the king's men

Couldn't put me together again

'Cause all of my enemies started friends

Help me hold onto you

I've been the archer, I've been the prey

Who could ever leave me, darling?

But who could stay?

I Think He Knows

Spoiler

He got that boyish look that I like in a man

I am an architect, I am drawing up the plans

It's like I'm 17, nobody understands 

He's so obsessed with me and boy, I understand

He got my heartbeat 

Skipping down 16th Avenue

I want you, bless my soul

Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince

Spoiler

No cameras catch my pageant smile/muffled cries

I counted days, I counted miles

To see you there, to see you there

It's been a long time coming/And now the storm is coming, but

It's you and me, that's my whole world

They whisper in the hallway "She is a bad, bad girl"

The whole school is rolled in fake dice

You play stupid games, you win stupid prizes 

It's you and me, there's nothing like this

Miss Americana and the heartbreak prince

We're so sad, we paint the town blue

Voted most likely to run away with you

And I don't want you to go, I don't really wanna fight

'Cause nobody's gonna win, just thought you should know/you should come home

And I'll never let you go, 'cause I know this is a fight

That someday we're gonna win

Paper Rings

Spoiler

Kiss me once, 'cause I had a long night

Kiss me twice, 'cause it's gonna be alright

Three times, 'cause I waited my whole life

I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper rings

I hate accidents, except when we went from friends to this

In paper rings, in picture frames, in dirty dreams/in all my dreams

Cornelia Street

Spoiler

We were a fresh page on the desk

Filling in the blanks as we go

As if the street lights pointed in an arrow head

Leading us home

And I hope I never loose you, hope it never ends

I'd never walk Cornelia Street again

That's the kind heartbreak time could never mend

I'd never walk Cornelia street again

And baby, I get mystified by how this city screams your name

And baby, I'm so terrified of it you ever walk away

I'd never walk Cornelia Street again

Windows flung right open, autumn air

Jacket 'round my shoulders is yours

We bless the rains on Cornelia Street

Memorize the creaks in the floor

Back when we were cars sharks, playing games

I thought you were leading me on

I packed my begs, left Cornelia Street

Before you even knew I was gone

But then you called, showed your hand

I turned around before I hit the tunnel

Sat on the roof, you and I

Years ago, we were just inside

Barefoot in the kitchen

Sacred new beginnings 

That became my religion

Death By A Thousand Cuts

Spoiler

You said it was a great love, one for the ages

But if the story's over, why am I still writing pages?

My heart, my hips, my body, my love

Tryna find a part of me that you didn't touch

Gave up one me like I was a bad drug

Now I'm searching for signs in a haunted club

Our songs, our film, united we stand

Our country, guess it was a lawless land

Quite my fears with the touch of your hand

Paper cut stains from our paper-thin plans

My time, my wine, my spirit, my trust

Tryna find a part of me you didn't take up

Gave you so much, but it wasn't enough

But I'll be alright, it's just a thousand cuts

'Cause saying good bye is death by a thousand cuts

Flashback waking me up

I get drunk, but it's not enough

'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby

London Boy

Spoiler

They say home is where the heart is

But that's not where mine lives/but God, I love the English

Babe, don't threaten me with a good time

He likes my American smile, like a child when our eyes meet

So please show me Hackney

Doesn't have to be Louis V up on Bond Street

Just wanna be with you

Wanna be with you

Stick with me, I'm your queen

Like a Tennessee Stella McCartney on the Heath

Darling, I fancy you

Soon You'll Get Better

Spoiler

I'll paint the kitchen neon, I'll be brighten up the sky

I know I'll never regret it, there's a day that I won't try

And I say to you

Soon, you'll get better

You'll get better soon

'Cause you have to

And I hate to make this all about me

But who am I supposed to talk to?

What am I supposed to do

If there's no you?

This won't go back to normal, if it ever was

It's been years of hoping and I keep saying it because

'Cause I have to

False God

Spoiler

We were crazy to think

Crazy to think that this could work

Remember how I said I'd die for you?

We were stupid to jump

In the ocean separating us

Remember how I'd fly to you?

And I can't talk to you when you're like this/And you can't talk to me when I'm like this

Staring out the window like I'm your favorite town/Daring you to leave me just so I can try and scare you

They say the road gets hard and you get lost

When you're led by blind fate

But we might just get away with it

Religion's in your lips

The altar is my hips

Even if it's a false god

We'd still worship this love

I know heaven's a thing

I go there when you touch me, honey

Hell is when I fight with you

But we can patch it up good

Make confessions and we're begging for forgiveness

Got the wine for you

You Need To Calm Down

Spoiler

And I ain't tryna mess with your self-expression

But I've learned a lesson that stressin' and obsessin'

About somebody else is no fun

And snakes and stones never broke my bones

You just need to take several seats

And then try to restore peace

And control your urges to scream

About all the people you hate

'Cause shade never made anybody less gay

Why are you mad when you could be gla(a)d?

Afterglow

Spoiler

Fighting with true love is boxing with no gloves

Chemistry 'til it blows up, 'til there's no us

Why'd I have to break what I love so much?

It's on your face and I'm to blame, I need to say

Hey, it's all me, in my head

I'm the one who burned us down

But it's not what I meant

Sorry that I hurt you

I don't wanna do, I don't wanna do this to you

I don't wanna lose, I don't wanna loose this with you

I need to say, hey, it's all me, just don't go

Meet me in the afterglow

I lived like an island, punished you with silence

Went off like sirens, just crying

ME!

Spoiler

I know that I'm a handful baby, uh

I know I never think before I jump

I know that I went psycho on the phone

I never leave well enough alone

And trouble's gonna follow where I go

Baby doll, when it comes to a lover

I promise that you'll never find another like me

I know I tend to make it about me

I know you never get just what you see

But I will never bore you, baby

And when we had that fight out in the rain

You ran after me and called my name

I never wanna see you walk away

Livin' in winter, I am your summer

It's Nice To Have A Friend

Spoiler

Light pink sky, up on the roof

Sun sinks down, no curfew

20 questions, we tell the truth

You've been stressed out lately, yeah me too

Something gave you the nerve to touch my hand

Church bell ring, carry me home

Rice on the ground look like snow

Call my bluff, call you "babe"

Have my back, yeah, every day

Feels like home, stay in bed the whole weekend

Daylight

Spoiler

My love as cruel as the cities I lived in

Everyone looked worse in the light

There are so many lines that I've crossed unforgiven

I'll tell you the truth, but never goodbye 

Luck of the draw only draws the unlucky

And so I became the butt of the joke

I wounded the good and I trusted the wicked

Clearing the air, I breathed in the smoke

Maybe you ran with the wolves and refused to settle down

Maybe I've stormed out every single room in this town

Threw out our cloaks and daggers, because it's morning now

It's brighter now

I don't wanna look at anything else now that I saw you

I don't wanna think of anything now that I thought of you

I've been sleeping so long in 20-year dark night

And now I see daylight, I only see daylight

I once believed love would be black and white/burning red

But it's golden like daylight

 

Complete outro goes as well. jj2
