Despite your best intentions whatever happens, happens Twisted my intestines whatever happens, happens I'm sick of roads, paved in gold that won't get you to heaven Maybe you're intangible whatever happens, happens It may be insubstantial whatever happens, happens When the windows rattle won't you feel supernatural? Pull a sheet over my head suddenly an empty bed can shake my faith but rapture is a wraith and you're not dead yet Put my hands on you whatever happens, happens Hope I don't fall through whatever happens, happens You don't mind a scare but the terror made you cruel Pull a sheet over my head suddenly an empty bed can shake my faith but rapture is a wraith and you're not dead yet

2 Haunt 4 U 03:25
I am a haunted house you are the tiny mouse that wanders through my walls Hear you echo echo echo through my halls Do you really want to be here at all? Who's haunting who? Who's haunting who? (2 haunt 4 you 2 haunt 4 you) You are a haunted house I am the tiny mouse that wanders through your walls Hear me echo echo echo through your halls Do I really want to be here at all? Who's haunting who? Who's haunting who?

Davey 05:12
Davey won't you come and save me won't you come and take me away on the night you couldn't stay I feel like a phantom I feel like the problem something must be following me following me, following me Davey oh, it doesn't phase me oh, it doesn't change all the ways that I tried to escape I feel like a phantom I feel like the problem something must be following me following me, following me I told you I love you so things would get better told you I love you, so things'll get better, right? right?

Slow Roots 05:11
Oh, I'm taking my time your doorbell chimes I'm glued to the floor Oh, I'm nervous and cautious I stick to my watches I'm a calculator I may never have faced you but you're delicate and graceful my elbows are sure From here I see hints of your roots a reemerging truth you earned those silver hairs from all those books I'm weepwalking 'cause you're sleep talking again, again I have memorized the tops of your hands, and the top of your head, oh I wanna go home to the home in your heart but I'm one floor up and your apartment's dark I watched you through a hole in the carpet but telescopes can't harvest a garden I've got slow roots growin' in your stardust I've got slow roots growin' in your stardust I'm weepwalking 'cause you're sleep talking again, again I have memorized the tops of your hands, and the top of your head, oh I wanna go home to the home in your heart but I'm one floor up and your apartment's dark I watched you through a hole in the carpet but telescopes can't harvest a garden I've got slow roots growin' in your stardust I've got slow roots growin' in your stardust

UFO DUI 03:39
Objects in the mirror begin to look a little weird and objects in the sky, they look closer, closer He asks: "Have you had a drink or two tonight?” I look him in the eyes and I say: “no sir, no sir.” I promise I'm a good good girl, a good good girl I'm just trying to get home I promise I'm a good good girl, a good good girl I'm just trying to find home Objects in the mirror begin to look a little blurry I promise I can fake it, I mean maybe, maybe But if the stars align I'll be in your arms tonight the sky will bring me back to my baby, my baby I promise I'm a good good girl, a good good girl I'm just trying to get home I promise I'm a good good girl, a good good girl I'm just trying to find home

When I was a boy, they said, “son, you've got some moxie so use the skills that you have.” but I never won a trophy at least not in a long while Kiss me in the dark, at the bar we collided in the bathroom your friends were looking for you you left in a hurry was it me or was it you? I like when people tell me secrets it makes me feel important but no one tells me secrets anymore You've got thick lenses in your glasses please just leave them off 'cause I'm slightly unsightly, you see Those summer days, you felt me, oh you really felt me Please dear don't take off just 'cause I'm slightly unsightly, you see look away look away look away (look away)

I don't want to go home can I curl up outside of your window? 
I wanna bask in your television glow darlin', I don't need anything I never felt like I belonged I've grown to 24 years long I feel like every right just makes a wrong, makes a wrong Can I listen to the sound of clinking cutlery? 'cause it's the sound, it's the sound of domesticity I'm on the outside looking in at all this normalcy and darlin', I don't know where to go I never felt like I belonged I've grown to 24 years long I feel like every right just makes a wrong, makes a wrong I'm counting down the days until I - I'm counting down the days until I - I'm counting down the days until I -

So show some restraint I'll be your patron saint I was shaken awake by the ghost of a lover With a tattoo of a question mark I don't know where to start Werewolf girl you're baring fangs you never knew you had So show some restraint everyone makes mistakes Nurses said they'd try to make you comfortable as they could I don't want to string you along but maybe Davey was wrong Werewolf girl you're baring fangs you never knew you had When the full moon comes we'll be ourselves again When the full moon comes we'll shed our rented skin

I would take a thousand ceiling leaks if it means I can share a roof with you We'll buy a bucket or two Every place I've lived is messed up but I guess it's fitting 'cause I'm messed up too I've got leaks in my head too She could sweep the cobwebs with her eyelashes some nights I even dream of this I wonder if she dreams about this too As she's laughing in her sleep you're laughing in your sleep and I'm home with you We spend our nights wrapped up in ill-fitting stripes the sheets you outgrew You want something new You run hot and I run cold but these shitty blankets are rather conducive to a temperate snooze She could sweep the cobwebs with her eyelashes some nights I even dream of this I wonder if she dreams about this too As she's laughing in her sleep you're laughing in your sleep and I'm home with you
