sitting in my room and I'm playing brand new
i got deja entendu on repeat
its the only sound I'm comfortable with
before i go to sleep
fuck exams they were a waste of time
fuck school they don't get anything right
turn the record over play crack the sky
nothing i create will last
its dead funny to me i hope its funny to you
otherwise i won't laugh
its dead funny to me is it funny to you
otherwise time won't pass
there's another way out of this
there's another way out
its dead funny to me what are we to do?
i can't find the other way out
i feel like nothing ever falls into place
these days i keep on racing my mind
i need some space and time and space what a waste
what a waste what a waste what a waste of time
what a waste you don't get anything right
you gave me nothing in return just all hard work what a waste of time
nothing i create will be a waste
its dead funny to me i hope its funny to you
otherwise i won't laugh
its dead funny to me is it funny to you
otherwise time won't pass
theres another way out this time
theres another way out
its dead funny to me what are we to do?
i can't find the other way out
stop your crying stop your whining stop your life
stop your trying just to get everything right
they said to me you're not gonna get far
but i'll say
thats dead funny to me, is it funny to you
otherwise i won't laugh
its dead funny to me is it funny to you
otherwise i won't laugh
its dead funny to me is it funny to you
otherwise time won't pass
theres another way out this time
theres another way out
its dead funny to me what are we to do?
i can't find the other way out

digging your own grave

welcome to the city, dreams aren't so pretty
truth has no clarity , its a capitalist reality
lacking wisdom, living like a politician
brave by heart, but thats not where to start
you don't agree with me, stuck in your bad mentality
your brains are rotten, you’ve forgotten the colour of your bones
drive away, save this pain do you think we’re done with this game
i hope the writers cut you from your scene
you say I'm irresponsible well at least I'm brave
smoke your cigarettes and keep begging me to stay
oh baby i love it when you tell me you don’t need me anymore
then every day you come back, knocking at my door. well good
keep digging your own grave
its not your fault you're just a cunt
keep repeating, tell me I'm you're only one
yes baby, tell me all that you know i wanna hear
hit the gas hit the road, do what you're told, lets get away from here
i’m doing nothing with my days
i cant stand you or this place
i’ll dig my own grave make it shallow like your self esteem
you’re not the person i wanna be with
you say I'm irresponsible well at least I'm brave
smoke your cigarettes and keep begging me to stay
oh baby i love it when you tell me you don’t need me anymore
then every day you come back, knocking at my door. well good
keep digging your own grave
you say i’m irresponsible and maybe thats true
i’d rather be like that than be anything like you
wont you come here so i can watch you walk away
thank you for reminding me of all my mistakes

you know i can see it when you like it
always drunk on a friday night yeah
marry me already baby
i’ll take what i want, though its not mine yeah
even though, we’re not the same
in different ways
like warm honey in the middle of may
do what you want and do it to me
i made the same old mistakes every time
this is the perfect era to live and die
across the crowd your eyes catch mine
i never wanna have to say goodbye
now, i see you through the lights yeah
looking like an american nightmare
i never wanna be sober baby
hand me plastic flowers, i seem crazy
its not that hard
to steal my heart
one step two step with me,
thats all you have to do, follow my lead
listen to me when i say
i dont want it this way
i made the same old mistakes every time
this is the perfect era to live and die
but i never wanna be away, i never want another day without you
you’ve really changed my life

sad song #42

if anyone asks how I'm doing without you
the house still feels empty so I'm not sure what to do
i swear i can still hear your voice
when I'm talking to mum
and i'll play the wrong chords cause i don't give a fuck
its not gonna change you chose her over us
yeah i know that marriage isn't for the rest of your life
but its nice to pretend right
i mean i should be more grateful that you're still alive
but quite frankly you minorly fucked up my life
i spent hours in the shower sitting down and
crying alone
you missed my 18th birthday, you sent me some money
but that don't mean nothing, I'm still feeling lonely
you should've been home where you were meant to be
you should've been home unwrapping presents with me
that brings us to christmas, what a fucking weird time
i spent the whole day knowing something weren't right
what was i supposed to buy a dad that subtly said 'thank you
for fucking out my life'
this is one of them songs you can play in your house
i just ask that you never play it out loud
and don't tell me how you know that I'm struggling
because I'm trying to act brave
but i'm actually alright I'm better than ever
i know i cant control you or this weather
im just sorry i wasn't enough of a reason to
make you stay
love u dad

la vie en rose (cover)

hold me close and hold me fast,
this magic spell you cast,
this is la vie en rose
when you kiss me heaven sighs,
and though i close my eyes,
i see la vie en rose
when you press me to your heart,
i’m in a world apart,
a world where roses bloom
and when you speak
angels sing from above
every day words seem to
turn into love songs
give your heart and soul to me
and life will always be,
la vie en rose
