Hey I’ve been afraid to say: “Won’t you come over Some time today?” Babe Do you like pet names? How do I be endearing Without sounding lame? I’ve seen some things And I won’t ever be the same I hope you have Your sewing kit ready ‘Cause my patched up heart Is bursting at the seams You’re gonna have to show me How to love again Wait I don’t know my body I forgot how to Have meaningful sex If This is all too much I can leave first thing In the morning I’ve seen some things And I won’t ever be the same Can you take my hands And place them where they need to be If you guide this dance Then I won’t step on your feet You’re gonna have to show me How to love again

Mooncakes 02:41
You promised to teach me how to bake Those golden brown little mooncakes Pushed it off ‘til it was too late Now, I don’t know how to make mooncakes There’s this girl I’d like you to meet If you met her would you still love me? You used to love unconditionally So, I’d like to think that you love me You’re getting good at English now You understood what the doctor’s talking about We should’ve kept you from finding out ‘Cause the ambulance was really loud She still sits in that same spot But it’s a new couch that we just got She doesn’t get how to use her new phone Wish you were here ‘cause you would know I wish you were still around I wish you were still around I wish you were still around I wish you were still around I wish you were still around I wish you were still around I wish you were still around I wish you were still around

Sad Songs 03:16
(Is this thing on? Okay) When we’re both hungry I’ll feed you strawberries And eat you out You out You out ‘Cause what can’t cure your constant headache Than my mouth My mouth My mouth Do you think it’s from All these sad songs we play They are too loud Too loud Too loud But can you turn the volume knob up? So I can shout Playing in a meadow of flowers And you get stung by a honeybee A bee A bee That bee died before it got the chance to tell you That it’s sorry Sorry sorry Do you think Listening to these sad songs Will make you feel better Better Better In reality, it’ll always hurt It just makes me feel sadder In reality, it’ll always hurt It just makes me feel sadder Sadder, sadder, sadder...

You don’t have to pay me to stay quiet Even if I’ve something to say, nobody will listen In a room of people I love, nobody sees me When I die, nobody will discover my body Wrinkled laundry left undone Least expected to kill myself Is it a tragedy if I wanted to die? I don’t think so You won’t have to get a restraining order Forget I said anything; you didn’t hear You won’t notice when I disappear I’ll see myself out Wrinkled laundry left undone Least expected to kill myself Is it a tragedy if I wanted to die? I don’t think so Dressed in black Camouflaging with the asphalt Waiting for a truck to come Driven by a man in a rush Who doesn’t mind going over A speedbump I’ll see myself out Yea, I’ll see myself out I’ll see myself o-o-oh I’ll see myself out
