Craving... 02:31

Like a child I want so much Been keeping me occupied for a while now I'm awake and life’s a dream Still I crave the in-between I didn’t see it hit the ground But I saw the crater Tales of Leviathan found So the sailors chase her It’s the sirens, it’s the grail It’s the promise of that summer sale If I sing perfectly maybe I’ll get just a taste of infinity I’ll find eternity if can truly speak my mind That old absurdity: to be pining for love on a tiny speck in space Is it the birds and bees? or the grass is greener? oh baby can it be that you were made for me? Or is it just a craving? Tell me whatcha craving? Is it just a craving? Tell me whatcha craving? (Tell me whatcha craving? tell me whatcha craving? is it heartbreak?) Is it just a craving? (Oh I got whatcha need! is it heartbreak or heartburn?) Tell me whatcha craving? (Oh I got whatcha need: is it heartbreak?)

If you let me love ya like I wanna I'll give you the ocean Heal you like Logan If you let me love ya like I wanna Write you all the poems like Whitman You can take my Thin Mints If you let me love ya like I wanna I'll give you the ocean Heal you like Logan If you let me love ya like I wanna Write you all the poems like Whitman You can take my Thin Mints All I’ve ever wanted is to be around you Darling think about it: who can make you smile? Like a safe room when you need that hush like soundproof Come through And let your mind go quiet All I’ve ever wanted is to get to know you Darling drink about it: who can getcha riled up? Downtime’s better spent with someone who can hold you So true I’ll set your mind on fire Now give me one good reason why you're not here Cold rationale it gets so freezing when you're drowning in fear If you let me love ya like I wanna I'll give you the ocean Heal you like Logan If you let me love ya like I wanna Write you all the poems like Whitman You take my Thin Mints If you let me love ya like I wanna I'll give you the ocean Heal you like Logan If you let me love ya like I wanna Write you all the poems like Whitman You can take my Thin Mints You make me complete yet somehow make me feel I'm falling to pieces Get out your head come feel nice Get out your head and you'll see I'm right You make me complete yet somehow make me feel I'm falling to pieces Get out your head come feel nice Get out your head and you'll see I'm right

Boys & Girls in Hell's Kitchen 04:46
lyrics

Boys boys boys are out here in Hell’s Kitchen Solitary minded, always fishing Play your cards right Find yourself in the morning light Waking up a winner Waking up on top Can it be that all my life is tension? Bravery won’t get me through the night Straight to me, yet in your mouth it’s bending Wait and see - one day we’ll get this right, get this right Some for them but more for me! Gotta keep up with the cavalry Gotta keep up with the Young and free Kiss somebody Kiss them good Kiss somebody Find your fresh meet-cute Girls girls girls are out here in Hell’s Kitchen Lifting t-shirts, this is our condition Lies lies lies they told, come on come on To the truth Fight fight fight for something Fight fight fight some more Can it be that all my life is tension? Bravery won’t get me through the night Straight to me, yet in your mouth it’s bending Wait and see - one day we’ll get this right, get this right Some for them but more for me! Gotta keep up with the cavalry Gotta keep up with the Young and free Kiss somebody Kiss them good Kiss somebody Find your fresh meet-cute How late into the night are you willing to fight? How late into the night are you willing to fight? How late into the night are you willing to fight? How late into the night are you willing to fight? At times everybody makes me feel so weird For talking to Everybody Instead of ignoring half the people there So they look across the room and think “What a hottie” I don’t think that’s how that works I think we all learned a little bit too much from Middle school dances But I ask myself What do I want more To make friends or make advances? Some for them but more for me! Gotta keep up with the cavalry Gotta keep up with the Young and free Kiss somebody Kiss them good Kiss somebody (How late into the night are you willing to fight?) Find your fresh meat (How late into the night are you willing to fight?) Kiss kiss kiss kiss kiss kiss kiss somebody Find your fresh meet-cute

Boulder 03:33
lyrics

I was so gentle As a boy Drove me mental All the noise Thicken up your skin and harden up those bones yeah It’s time for you to be large and loud and cold Hold up high your boulder You are getting older Now’s the time for you to feel the ice inside your shoulders Stiffen up now, soldier! You must be a bolder version of you Wherever you enter, don’t you let them catch ya Bein tender All around me They wear their kindness like An ill-fitting cardigan Now this again Another nice guy But he makes your blood curdle Inside his mind there’s the same damn voice from the car commercial Hold up high your boulder You are getting older Now’s the time for you to feel The ice inside your shoulders Stiffen up now, soldier! You must be a bolder Version of you Wherever you enter Don’t you let them catch ya Being tender Stiffen up now, soldier! You must be a bolder Version of you Wherever you enter Don’t you let them catch ya Don’t you let them catch ya Don’t you let them catch ya Don’t you let them catch ya

You’re at the age of feeling cursed by foresight Made your mistakes and swore to not repeat Sealed in the comfort zone It’s a quiet life yeah That’s a good grown-up Know that self control And know to keep the peace All that said We’re pulling into 42nd street Gotta get out You wanna get nostalgic with me Oh yeah Can’t stand clear of the closure Adoringly Looking at each other Knowing the history Let’s not think this through If we do this We face the music Queensboro and Verrazano up in smoke Just ask Brutus Just ask Judas Actions have consequences Didn't ya know We might get burned And have the friendship upturned And have some lessons to learn So I have my concerns All that said We’re pulling into 42nd street Gotta get out You wanna get nostalgic with me Oh yeah Can’t stand clear of the closure Adoringly Looking at each other Knowing the history Let’s not think this through I don’t wanna lose a friend But I want this loneliness to end And when I'm lying solo at night Knowing I've done right My morals and judgment can’t hold me tight I don’t wanna lose a friend But I want this loneliness to end And when I'm lying solo at night Knowing I've done right My morals and judgment can’t hold me tight All that said We’re pulling into 42nd street Gotta get out You wanna get nostalgic with me Can’t stand clear of the closure Adoringly Looking at each other Knowing the history Let’s not think this through No no no no Let's not think this through No no no no Let's not think this through No no no no Let's not think this through No no no no Let's not think this through

Laundry List 08:08
lyrics

When I think of all the ways This might've gone cold When I think of all the ways This might've gotten old It takes me away from your beautiful face You give me a kiss on the cheek I'm up in space (Thinking 'bout what else I can crave) Love is everywhere Unless you're caught up in the looking Love is everywhere Unless you're caught up in the looking Still stumbling through pools of my boyhood loneliness Still wondering when the cool kids will be Setting the bar where I can never grip I've been waiting For the dust to settle I wanna live without fear Sitting by the lake, thinking "Would anyone shed a tear if I weren't here?" But that's thinking 'bout it all wrong Can't make a laundry list from a love song Can't dig deep to find what's been above ground all along Love is everywhere Unless you're caught up in the looking Love is everywhere Unless you're caught up in the looking Love is everywhere Unless you're caught up in the looking Love is everywhere Unless you're caught up in the looking Love is everywhere Unless you're caught up in the looking Love is everywhere Unless you're caught up in the looking Love is everywhere Unless you're caught up in the looking Now tell me did you taste eternity Did you think about forever when you heard from me? You got a fresh squeezed cup of lemniscates If it wasn't enough just click replay Now tell me did you taste eternity Did you think about forever when you heard from me? 99 cents a cup for lemniscates If it wasn't enough just click replay It was the tragedy of getting everything I wanted Was mad to feel compassion Then I had it, still I was haunted Was it heartbreak? Or just heartburn? I don't know, but I can go to sleep tonight Knowing when I wake That you will take me in and hold me tight I'll crumple in your loving arms And start to cry 'Till this anger and this craving and these tears run dry
