Lyrics:
You dont tell me anything, anything
You dont tell me anything, anything
You got me wrapped around your finger like a ring
But darling, you dont tell me anything, anything
People
All they see is paper
Numbers on your neighbours
Stamps on your wall
Savior
Youre your own dictator
All we are is nature
Compostable
I dont expect it to be perfect
But I was hoping for a couple chances
And I would try to resurrect it
I dont expect it to be perfect
You dont tell me anything, anything
You dont tell me anything, anything
You got me wrapped around your finger like a ring
But darling, you dont tell me anything, anything
At all
Pressure
Breathe in the aroma
Go get your diploma
Acceptable
Fuck that
Move to Arizona
Drink some Coca-Cola
Respectable
I dont expect it to be perfect
But I was hoping for a couple chances
And I would try to resurrect it
But maybe love is just a burnt out candle
So lay me slowly in the hot wax
Wont even bother taking off my glasses
Cause I surrender to the slow death
I dont expect it to be perfect
You dont tell me anything, anything
You dont tell me anything, anything
You got me wrapped around your finger like a ring
But darling, you dont tell me anything, anything
At all
I feel like Im talking to a stranger
Im talking to
I feel like Im talking to a stranger
Im talking to
I feel like Im talking to a stranger
I feel like Im talking to a stranger
I feel like Im talking to a stranger
Im talking to
I feel like Im talking to a stranger
Im talking to
I feel like Im talking to a stranger
Im talking to
I feel like Im talking to a stranger
You dont tell me anything, anything
You dont tell me anything, anything
You got me wrapped around your finger like a ring
But darling, you dont tell me anything, anything
You dont tell me anything, anything
You dont tell me anything, anything
You got me wrapped around your finger like a ring
But darling, you dont tell me anything, anything
At all
I feel like Im talking to a stranger
Im talking to
I feel like Im talking to a stranger
Im talking to
I feel like Im talking to a stranger
Im talking to
I feel like Im talking to a stranger")

Lyrics:
Hug me and tell me you dont wanna go
Your skin is thin ice but Ive seen through your soul
I wouldnt go back after all that Ive learned
But I cant ignore the heart shattering yearn
Mmmmm
Mmmmm
Toxic, but I miss the thrill you overthrew
Safer, but Im looking for something to do
Cant say I miss you now all these years passed
Ive got better things for my heart to combat
Ohhhhh
Ohhhhh
Oh, I dont want to admit that Im better off
Happier without the heartache
I cant stand being told that I was wrong
Lessons better learned by partake
Ignoring better friends cause they
Dont make stories to be told during old age
Just a poor excuse, covered tracks, that Im bored of mundane
And I cant make good friends stay
Took another subway line just to see you
Walking home alone at night, over the moon
Took me seven years, but Id got a clear view
Just for you to shatter it
What did I do?
Mmmmm
Mmmmm
Walking through the cars at all hours of the night
Life Id always wanted in front of my eyes
Just like in the movies, but nothing good stays
I hope you took a piece of me just to replay
Ahhhhh
Ahhhhh
Oh, I dont want to admit that Im better off
Happier without the heartache
I cant stand being told that I was wrong
Lessons better learned by partake
Ignoring better friends cause they
Dont make stories to be told during old age
Just a poor excuse, covered tracks, that Im bored of mundane
And I cant make good friends stay
The life that I want
Just on the precipice
Go back and then forth
No space for residents to stay too long
Im just a hostess for memories to fester until theyre gone")
