every single time
i cross the county line
i get my goddamn hopes up
but everything is fine
i can be polite
i can give the ghost up
i fell asleep at the wheel
wondering how you feel
now i'm driving to the moon
in my flying subaru
subaru, subaru, subaru
subaru, subaru, subaru
i've never had a good nights' sleep in my life
i'm not having dreams, i'm just killing time
one of these days, i'ma get what's mine
i fell asleep at the wheel
wondering if i'm real
now i'm driving to the moon
in my flying subaru
subaru, subaru, subaru
subaru, subaru, subaru
subaru, subaru, subaru
subaru, subaru, subaru
(riding in my) subaru, subaru, subaru
(riding in my) subaru, subaru, subaru

and i know that this ain't gonna last forever
the greatest things in life, they never do
but i know i'd never bring myself to sever
the sweater sleeves connecting me to you
we'll ride the waves up above Bodega
shouting out into the blue unknown
when you hear the echo it's time to let go
hit the ground and break your bones
but right now all i know
is it feels so good
i'm not thinking about the fall
i'm just holding on
and it feels so good
can you keep a place within your walls
within your walls for me?
and i know that this ain't gonna last forever
can't believe it took so long to see
but i'll always treasure what we've got together
it'll be right there within the air i breathe
such a young crowd around the punk house
i wish we'd met before we got so old
so we'll follow our roads to opposite coasts
until then baby hold me close
cause right now all i know
is it feels so good
i'm not thinking about the fall
i'm just holding on
and it feels so good
can you keep a place within your walls
within your walls for me?
and i know that this ain't gonna last forever
and i know that this ain't gonna last forever

Nag Champa

tassled jacket, pewter clasp
tongue the lip around your glass
there's a lot i wanna ask
forgot to take my meds again
i'm dying in a stranger's bed
how much is real outside my head?
nag champa in the evening
no hoodie to conceal me
pull my eyelids down and peel me
what can i do to make you need me?
what can i do to make you need me?
what can i do to make you need me?
honestly i feel a little sorry for you
loving is a superpower
and i'm sorry for a lot of things
but now for who i am
i'm a river, you're a dam
and we could have let ourselves
run wild
wild
wild

i wanted you to know
i saw your note
you didn't mean for me to see
i put the words right in your mouth
thinking they just needed sound
now i hear you loud and clear
i don't wanna lose you yet
like powder falling through a net
let's take your honda, cruising west
while heaven turns from blue to red
so i'll keep cheering us
cheer
cheering us
both on for now
a dream of you
came into view
but could've easily have not
algorithm, blessed be
clever twist of destiny
and it was worth it
it was worth it
it was worth it
it was worth it
it was
i don't wanna lose you yet
we've got so much youth to spend
watching how the pool reflects
the starlight shining through our heads
so i'll keep cheering us
cheer
cheering us
both on for now
so i'll keep cheering us
cheer
cheering us
both on for now

Before I'm Gone

trash day, bag of ash and cum
and Arizona cans
and dreams and things, i mash it down
so i can fit every last one
anything i don't need i throw away, throw away
there will always be something new to fill the space
i'll know all these little things have done their job, done their job
if they haven't all run out before i'm gone
anything i don't need i throw away, throw away
there will always be something new to fill the space
i'll know all these little things have done their job, done their job
if they haven't all run out before i'm gone
(but i'll hold a piece of this)
(right here)
(always)

Ghost Bike

i stole your favorite mug cause it reminded me of you
sipping coffee by the ocean blue last week
i locked up next to a ghost bike across the street from yours
it's a bad look, but i've done worse
on god, on god, oh i've done worse
made the assumption that you felt exactly the same
as me from the very first day we met
and you were such a good sport loving me on my terms
whatever happens next will be on yours
on god, on god, it'll be on yours
and i hope you wake up fresh from a pleasant dream
with your sisters in your tie-dye sheets
and you don't have to remember me or where I'm from
just remember you deserve to be loved
on god, on god, you deserve to be loved
on god, on god, you deserve to be loved
on god, on god, you deserve to be loved
on god, on god, you deserve to be loved
dayglow falling in the house you're living in
keeps on calling me back to swim in it
it's history i know, but i don't wanna go
i don't wanna go
the things that we could do if only we could be
the labels we can't use, and the words that we don't mean
it's time to leave i know, but i don't wanna go
i don't wanna go
(i don't wanna go)
(i don't wanna go)
(i don't wanna go)
(i don't wanna go)
