Vinny
My knuckles are red and white I throw a punch then hold on tight My timing’s never been right G-D-Em-C My 6 cats know I’ve been fighting Ghosts in my home in bright lighting Fortune cookies hold no truths I’ve been fighting in weird suits Judge just told me they are youths I contaminate the room…

songs are spells
Hey Mom, I want to know what you did when you felt ugly and you felt like a monster and nobody liked you and you failed out of every single thing you’ve ever done And you get fired like it’s your job And you were never smarter than your parents and you recovered and then dove back into the deep…

I didn’t live down to your expectations
Everything I love is in boxes in a room I don’t enter in a house I can’t afford And a girl with a bell on her bike just rode by and I’m jealous of what I was before She did the same double take I’d have done at her age at me as she peddled along Her whole life’s ahead of her as she circles the...

I got away with it
1st time's a strike I fucking failed I was taken away to fucking jail (that’s fine!) The 2nd time’s a joke we waited for evidence I wait for lawyers to recognize my innocence The 3rd time’s a charm when you twisted my arm When the case it was dropped then I still was a prop in your life- 4th time...

moats

bill me
bill me Picking up the ticket shows there’s money to be made I swap the chaser with the chased you can’t manipulate what isn’t trying to impress you I signed in chalk on courtroom walls where Nature argues her own laws I’m the bookie for your invisible ballets Pay me in sameness, I’ll mint you a...

baby, you had me at hell
All of your heinous crimes All planned out before it’s time to growl You fish in shallow water My Beast, your teeth are hallow There’s no making it out There’s no making it out alive There’s no making it out There’s no making it out of love Baby, you had me at Hell Normal boys break their toys…

I Don't Think I've Laughed In A While
A billion stars, a million sighs A thousand teeth 30 smiles Another day in the light I will never call this a fight I can’t win what’s already mine A hundred days until summertime I don’t think I’ve laughed in a while Are you pretentious or do you just never Get rid of that smirk I’d never know...
