Does It Bother You?

Ordinary, 24 and blind
Screaming out loud on a busy night
I can't tell, does it bother you?
Hearing me out on a perfect day
Got nothing to prove, but I got shit to say
Does it bother you?
Drown in the sound of the social sway
I could be you, you could be me
What would you pay?
Does it bother you?
Hearing me out on a perfect day
Got nothing to prove, but I got shit to say
Does it bother you?

Need U

Where are you now that I need you?
Where did your ambition lead you?
I wrote nineteen songs just for you
Where are you now that I need you?
I hope it works out
There's blood in my drink now
You had the worst time
And I got way too high
I'm not getting younger, any longer
Where are you now that I need you?
Where did your ambition lead you?
I wrote nineteen songs just for you
Where are you now that I need you?
I hope it works out
There's blood in my drink now
You had the worst time
And I got way too high
I'm not getting younger, any longer
Where are you now that I need you?
Where did your ambition lead you?
I wrote nineteen songs just for you
Where are you now that I need you?

So New

Saw you outside the library
Hands on your hips, your cigarette lips
I can't stand when you stare at me
Take a big hit, smile this is it
Cause you, make me feel so new
Yeah you, make me feel so new
Just like before, you set the score
Walk out that door, just like before
Oh you, make me feel so, so new
Take your time, stay in town for a few days
Get me high, let this whole year go to waste
I was scared of the wildebeest
Turn off the sound, you take it too loud
All the neighbors come out to see
My dryer broke down, I'll move across town
Cause you, make me feel so new
Yeah you, make me feel so new
Just like before, you set the score
Walk out that door, just like before
Oh you, make me feel so, so new

Dumb Hearts
03:41
|

And the rain stopped stinging, thinking about you
Are we worse off dreaming, what do the wires underground do?
I hope you know, I don't find it
I hope you know, I don't find it strange
I hope you know, I don't find it strange at all
But my mind kept blinking, is this love?
Are my eyes open wide, does the sun seem to shine, is my dumb heart beating fast enough?
I hope you know, I don't find it
I hope you know, I don't find it strange
I hope you know, I don't find it strange at all
I get the feeling, this feeling, ain't gonna stay
I hope you know, I don't find it
I hope you know, I don't find it strange
I hope you know, I don't find it strange at all

Always Sleeping In
03:49

When the money comes a'calling, I'll be waiting
We got time for one shared dream before you go
And the gathering of strangers couldn't shake this
Feeling that we don't shine down so bright
Am I losing touch?
Moving in the dark?
A new connection, always in an out of love
Am I losing touch?
Moving in the dark?
Such potential, always sleeping in, I know
When the money comes a'calling, I'll be waiting
We got time for one shared dream before you go
And the gathering of strangers couldn't shake this
Feeling that we don't shine down so bright
Am I losing touch?
Moving in the dark?
A new connection, always in an out of love
Am I losing touch?
Moving in the dark?
Such potential, always sleeping in, I know
You tell me, your secrets
I don't care, I promise
I wish you, would wake up
This daylight, could save us

Real World
03:17
|

|
Let's watch eight movies in a row
I don't want the real world, I don't want the real world
Let's fill our faces 'til they glow
I don't want the real world, I don't want the real world
Cause it's boring, and it's crazy
And the people move too fast
And I'm boring, and I'm lazy
And I'm living in the past
Let's watch eight movies in a row
I don't want the real world, I don't want the real world
Let's fill our faces 'til they glow
I don't want the real world, I don't want the real world
Cause it's boring, and it's crazy
And the people move too fast
And I'm boring, and I'm lazy
And I'm living in the past

I wish I was in New York, but I'm not
I wish I had a dream that could be taught
I tried to get away, I just got caught
Oh, I wish I was in New York, but I'm not
I wish that you would love me like a brand
I'd name all of the biggest words I can
I'm down in Philadelphia, smoking pot
Oh, I wish I was in New York, but I'm not
If the light can find me, it'll find you again
You gotta get up and assess the time you spend
Making lists of things, and getting rid of friends
Is there much time left, I'll take whatever's next
Oh, New York
Are you still hearing me?

All the Music
04:14

Take me away, to a fantasy scene
Where the people are dancing all night
Cause I, was raised, on rom-coms and indie pop
So life it don't ever look right
Wasted time, goes by
So pack up your place, we got our mistakes
We're going to face all the music
If I'm going out, I'll scream and I'll shout
I'm nothing without all the music
Take me away, to a fantasy scene
Where the people are dancing all night
Cause I, was raised, on rom-coms and indie pop
So life it don't ever look right
Wasted time, goes by
So pack up your place, we got our mistakes
We're going to face all the music
If I'm going out, I'll scream and I'll shout
I'm nothing without all the music

Bad Lungs
08:43

Prove what you've seen, prove it to me, a non-believer
I'm too far gone, listen the dawn, calls to you
If you're so cool, why'd you say shit you regret?
If you're so great, get out of that burning bed
It was so much fun
It was so much fun
We got such bad lungs
It was so much fun, though
Ain't worth a damn, out over the sand, it's a new world
Rosy and red, pick up your head, find a new shell
If you're so cool, why'd you never shave your head?
If you're so great, get out of that burning bed
It was so much fun
It was so much fun
We got such bad lungs
It was so much fun, though
My dreams are the dreams you have when you don't run away
Would it, be rude to ask you
For a cigarette, play Radiohead
Teach me your silence, deeper than mine is
Better than film school says
Bad lungs, no broken bones
It's our blood, it's our blood
Bad lungs, no broken bones
It's our blood, it's our blood
It's our blood now
