We were sitting in a car
And it was almost dark
And you asked me if i'd ever got it in
But whats the point of knowing if
I don't really know you
And I'm not drunk enough to
Tell you all these things just yet
I wouldn't know what it feels like to fall in love
So excuse me if I suck at this
I just wonder why people say things
If they don't really mean them
So I just stay away
Cause what's the point of making that mistake
And i try to think
That any other time I'd let you know
And I would try to make you happy
But I'm not the kind of girl
Who's just looking to get lucky
I'm just trying to be happy
And live like there's a point to everything

The town was so small
It didn't take long to leave
And this long road morning blues
Is getting to me
And its afternoon
And I've forgotten
I've forgotten
How we'd look up
And the sky looked at us
With a million eyes
The stars they would light up
Everything we saw
Though it was barely anything at all
And I missed it before I even left it
I missed them before I realized they'd forgotten me

Hades & Persephone

It's like a sigh, the way you breathe here
Contaminated oxygen
Sinking deep into my skin
And I thought that I could follow you
But in the end
All I saw was darkness swallow you
And how was I to know
that you were different
And the world below
was dark and magnificent
What is a Hades
Without his Persephone?
Changing the seasons just to stay
Cause otherwise I don't know what I'd do without you
You changed my mind a million times
But you made a bad first move
And I won't stop holding it over you
And how was I to know
that you were different
And the world below
was dark and magnificent?
We have until the end of time
to get things right
so don't worry dear
so don't worry dear
so don't worry dear

Not Enough

Last winter we were happy
If not a little strained
We still got each other presents
And had so much to say
But now we're out of sorts
We're sort of fishing for an answer
I'm sorry I don't have one
It's not an easy thing to hate her
Cause while you go on thinking
She's the greatest thing, a leader
I can't begin to tell you
How much I really hate her
And you asked me why it was so easy
And you asked me why it was so easy
To forget that I was even friends with her
But I'll tell you a secret
Because honestly I'm tired
I don't think people realize
I'm always a liar
And now we're not so happy
I don't see you anymore
You've all got your boyfriends
And you'll smoke your weed
And you'll pour your drinks
We're not enough
Anymore

These Stars

I'll think about the times
you told me that stars
lasted so long
that they burned up so brightly
And then that was all they were
Greedy I know
And also so sacrificing
but I wasn't complaining too much
I wanted nothing more
than your light and your promise of
touch
I'll look outside at the sky
And I won't see any stars
The city lights on
the horizon
Blurs with the darkness
As I sit in my car
So what do I do now
But sit her and watch
as the darkness peels back
to show that I wasn't wrong
that stars exist
and that you
wanted this
But I won't lie to myself
I'm not greedy like that
I won't lie to myself
I'm not greedy like that
Maybe if I look closely I'll see
that the lights aren't so bright
Maybe they don't even bother me
And maybe I'll hope that these stars
will stop dying around me
