Scissor Abuse

Well if you are the demon in my castle
Who kicked me out of your car
Then I need to move on from you
To get my vaccination from your love
Because the cold winter days make me prone to sickness
The 9-5 job that no longer give me shifts because you would seal the drawbridge not allowing me to leave
All the hard summer nights feeling terrible because you didn’t tell me how you actually felt.
Even if I tried I couldn’t hide every pair of scissors from you because there’s too many in the world in fact there’s too many in this small town but you need to learn to not pick them up anymore when times are tough
Despite all of the hurt I’m glad you came into my life at the time you did because I kept picking up those pair of scissors that took a part of me with every slice. No these aren’t a literal pair of scissors but an angsty metaphor for abusers
In the beginning you gave me a reason to not go out and get drunk every night whether it being alone or in a large social gathering. In the beginning we helped each other through our problems but as times passed by we became each other’s problems
And it slowly deteriorated into self destruction blamed on another soul. That soul being mine.
But how I feel about you now doesn’t change how I felt about you when we first met because that was the first time I had felt happy in a long time
I set myself on fire for you
To keep you warm
Through the night

Major Rager Ballad
03:30

I never wanted to have a nicotine addiction
Just wanted to fit in with all you guys... and gals
You’re an unethical clothing cult
Of nosebleeds and constant binge drinking
I don’t care about tame impala
It’s sacrilege! I know
You don’t care when shitty things happen to your friends and I’m at that friend
So I lay out in my backyard with a bottle in my hand
My blood feels like car exhaust if you know what I mean
One day I’ll get over this
Non consensual kiss
And you ruined years of friendship over mediocre head
From my abuser
Cooking up the worst apologies... but that’s the way of the rager
So I lay out in my backyard with a bottle in my hand
My blood feels like car exhaust if you know what I mean
So I lay out in my backyard with a bottle in my hand
My blood feels like car exhaust if you know what I mean

I don’t want to have sex on xans
I don’t care that you know fog man
Mac Demarco starter pack
I don’t want your viceroy cigarettes
I am your virtual ghost
Take the hint that I don’t want you
Making some lean in the Micky D’s
Making a joke about your suicide note
I want you to leave me alone
I am not trying to bone
You were so annoying
You lied to all of your friends

Bedroom Fire
01:48
|
|||
|
I was stuck in a bedroom fire
Maybe because I was so fucking awkward
I was lost in my algebra class
But I was really in the city
I thought this time would last forever
But it really fucking didn't
I was skipping class
To go to the skatepark
I didn’t think it would be the last time

Cardio and Ketchup Chips
03:25

Smoking weed at the end of the road
Watching as cop cars roam
Please don’t leave me on my own
I just want to take you home
Falling for each other tho
Please don’t tell me it’s no so
Kissing you on your nose
Trying to let my feeling show
Low fi music flowing through
Don’t let me take those shrooms
I just want to dance with you
Let’s go toke in my room
Laying on the park bench
Have to smell that nasty stench
From the weed in the joint
That we rolled up at bullet point
I love our inside jokes
Cardio and ketchup chips
Dancing in the moonlight
Hope the embers not too bright
Hope the cops don’t see the light
Because if they did it would ruin my night
Polaroid camera pic
Of our first picnic
It was pretty epic
When I showed you my skateboard trick
Somewhere in between your dreams
I’m there laying gently
I just wanna be with you
While I take a #2
Your bathrooms got a urinal
It’s pretty phenomenal
It feels like a terminal
God I’m unoriginal
Vinyl records on my wall
They always seem to fall
Rainbow colored Christmas lights
Glow with us through the night
I love our inside jokes
Cardio and ketchup chips
Black and white photo pics
If all our stupid shit
Stealing your jazz sweater
Okay you do wear it better
I love our inside jokes
Cardio and ketchup chips
Showing up to prom night
There will probably be a fight
And we’re not afraid to bite

Existential Improv

You said "come this way dear and I'll bring you near We'll run away from all our fears follow me there and we'll make our way through our existential fears"
Don't pick up the Phone
no, listen to where I tell you to go
Just take my hand and I'll show you the way
to wash all your dreams away
like there was a light hidden by your devilish smile
your hands were the traps that were made of ???

I spent time on the ocean but I wasn’t really fine
You were drunk and I was high we were separated
At night I would walk the endless hallways and gaze at the stars
You were mad and I was sad but that didn’t matter
It really didn't matter
Why does everything hurt so much more
At night
Hurts so much more At night
Why can’t you tell me?
That you love me
You can’t tell me that you love me
When I really need it
But then the stars lit up the sky when I really needed it and it kinda made me feel better
But
It doesn’t go away
It can’t numb the pain
It’s here to stay
At least for a little while x5
I was stuck in the ocean but I really wasn't fine.

You turned all my bones into your own jewelry
I’m on the race track but I can’t win you back
You’re taking it out on me I’m just trying to help
All of my energy goes out into you
But it’s too much
You’ve made me the raging alcoholic you’ve grown to hate
The Raging alcoholic you’ve grown to hate
I don’t want to hurt you anymore
And same goes for you...
At least I hope
We were our personal coping mechanism
All the time spent was not wasted... unlike me
You’ve made me the raging alcoholic you’ve grown to hate

Unsatisfactory Honeymoon
02:41
|

|
You don’t get to choose how your actions make me feel
You’re not my personal police man for my emotions
You tell me that you need a break from me
But you didn’t really mean it
It really hurt
And you didn’t care
Okay you probably did
It still really sucked
And you have no trust
How long do you think we will last?
I finally took off my love goggles
And saw you for who you were
You poured gas all over my body
And then you ignited me
I’m really glad I’m alive
Wrote the first half of this song in your bed
threw it at my head
And then you scream at me
It really hurt
And you didn’t care
Okay you probably did
It still really sucked
And you have no trust
How long do you think we will last?

Facetime Hero
02:34
|
|||
|
I’ve always wanted to be your Face Time hero
Just wanted to rescue you from your boredom
But you didn’t need it because you’ve already got your Face Time hero
You called me late at night because you were bored
I woke up to the sound of your ringtone and I picked it up in an instant
But you just happened to drunk call me
And your friend made you hang up the phone
So you left me a voicemail for the chance of being in one of my songs
I’ve always wanted to be your Face Time hero
Just wanted to rescue you from your boredom
But you didn’t need it because you’ve already got your Face Time hero

I’m sorry that I can’t hang out on Valentine’s Day
I have to babysit anyways
which really sucks
You seem to feel the same way
and that’s pretty neat
I want you to be my valentine
My valentine
One day we will finally meet in person
Instead of just talking on the phone all the time
But that’s still nice
We’ll sit around and watch our favorite movies that we’ve seen before
I want you to be my valentine
My valentine

You jumped over the fence into my arms
You scaled the door like a kangaroo
I severely miss you
14 years you were with me
Tiger Dewhurst
I’m sorry it ended this way
But now you’re in a better place
In doggy heaven
Your chair still creaks
I knew it was for the best
But it doesn’t change how much it hurt when we had to say good bye
