Emma Chamberlain
on my computer screen
I’m planning trips
to get away from here
Some place that I have never been
I don’t wanna be here
I don’t wanna be seen
I wanna be anyone but me

Star Wars Episode VI
03:23

(V1)
I’m playing through the scenes
of High Fidelity
I’m already making her a mixtape in my head
I wonder what I should put on there
the order of the songs
the title and everything that could go wrong
when I give it to her
will she think of me
listening to Clairo, The Front Bottoms and Mac DeMarco
and I’m writing down my Greatest Hits for you
making a list at work
of the things I wanna do with you
(V2)
and it felt so sweet
watching Star Wars Episode VI
as we both fell asleep
and then you had to leave
you look so cool
in your oversized T-shirt, your Doc Martens boots
and I’m in love with your tattoos
and every time you look at me
the moment lasts forever
every breath a small infinity
but all of my ideas are buried in my cellphone
so I watch American Beauty on my own
(Outro)
I wanna write your name all over my notebook
and the white rubber part of my shoes
all over my desk at school
like I used to do
I wanna write your name all over my notebook
and the white rubber part of my shoes
all over my desk at school
like I used to do
I wanna write your name all over my notebook
and the white rubber part of my shoes
just like I used to

Bowl Cut Boyfriend

(V1)
you wanna be the best
anyone has ever had
treat some people like treasure
treat some people like trash
what is fake if being real
can never be true
sometimes I wish I really knew you
(v2)
tired easily if there is nothing coming back
keep your emotions in check above your neck
let others crack their heads over your thoughts and your chest
while you
crush their hearts behind their backs
(Chorus)
it hurts to know that I am never number one
it hurts to know that at one point everyone will be gone
maybe I can hold your hand tonight
and feel alright for a little while
maybe I can hold your hand tonight
(v3)
watching Donnie Darko in your bed together
now that memory is ruined for me too
I’ve been listening to so many songs
that keep reminding me of you
and I wish that I could find a band
that could be me without you
(outro)
baby I can be your bowl cut boyfriend
I can be the one you lay down next to at night
I’ve got nothing to wear
but we don’t have to get dressed in time tonight

(V1)
I was shocked when I saw that you’re smoking again
you told me about getting drunk with your friends
and smoking weed in parking lots
and what a lovely time it’s been
(V2)
and now it’s all happening again
I saw it all going down on Instagram
hanging out with your friends and beer and cigarettes
(hook)
a shell of who you used to be
broken hearts heal slowly
(V3)
and I’m not good at any sports
and I use coping mechanisms of some sorts
every day to get me by
(hook2)
a shell of who I used to be
broken hearts heal slowly
(Bridge)
and I still think of you
I know you do too
(outro)
I know I need to get over this
the best I ever had, the best I ever had
(I know, I know I was wrong now, I was proven wrong now but I still miss you sometimes)

(v1)
so I’ll keep buying flowers for myself
because there’s no one else
I could possibly give them too
we used to walk side by side,
I’d slide my hand into the back pocket of your jeans
and you’d slide your hand in mine
(hook)
it’s alright
(chorus)
you don’t think that I could be
on my own for so long
maybe it’s my pisces rising
and I just want to belong
(v2)
I feel the last true love song
ringing in my ears
and I feel all of my emotion
coming out in tears
I’ll sing my songs to your voicemail
have your name tattooed on my skin
all my sins confessed in these lines
tangled up in your long sleeves
I wish you were mine

I Never Asked to Be Here
02:59
|
|||
|
V1
I wish I just had this cough
because I’m smoking too much
but the stress inside my head
made its way down to my chest
I listen to “Bloodstream”
and I feel like somethings happening
I feel happy
and I start to daydream
CHORUS
and I just want you to know
that Soccer Mommy’s Clean makes it easier for me to let it go
and I just want you to know
that the changing seasons make it easier for me to let it go
V2
I find comfort in re-watching TV shows and movies
and wearing the same old clothes
maybe that’s why
you’re still on my mind
and it’s summer around here now
and the neighbors got a new swimming pool
I wish I had something too
that keeps me cool
I’m still such a fool for you
BRIDGE
the love I have for you will never let me rest
although I always end up second best

She says let’s get high and listen to The Cure
and I ask if she means just like the song
she’s not that much into music
and she’s not that much into John
and I don’t do drugs
I don’t smoke pot anymore
(chorus)
she says oh well
I’m on my own again
I guess I’m on my own again
(v2)
she’s been getting drunk and getting high
playing Dungeons & Dragons with her friends last night
apparently they’ve been playing these games for a while
and I’ve been sober of those drinks
my whole life
(v3)
and if not Mike and Erin So Sexy 1991
is there anything that’s made to last?
I still have her dads Iron Maiden Shirt
and even if I don’t want to
I’ll remember when she said
(Chrous2)
Let’s get high and listen to The Cure

(v1)
I’d love to love this place
yeah any place at all
but nowhere feels like home
no nowhere feels like home
just one day in different sheets
just one day where my heart is
while some men never dream
some men never sleep
(v2)
and I drive by
as people stand outside
one girl scribbles numbers
on one end of her cigarettes
to keep count of
how many times she wants to die
to keep count of her dreams of a different life
(outro)
and while some men never die
some men never live
we’re all alive tonight
we’re all alive tonight
|

I wonder if I’ll ever
have a nice life
with a beach house in Hawaii
and a girl by my side
or if I’ll stay here and get old
with all my dreams and aspirations
nothing more than a centerfold
will I find my home within
peace and purpose in this world
I can’t wait to kiss you in my apartment
as the morning sun comes in
I will get
some colored shelves
to put my books and records in
I’ll take my bike to the park
or to the ocean to hang out
we can get a coffee, I’ll bring some food
and my guitar too and we’ll sing

Spirited Away
03:35
|
|||
|
(v1)
swirling thoughts on a rainy day
Sunday afternoons and Monday mornings wasted away
with my greasy hair tied up into a bun
wearing your old sweater in the sun
and time keeps passing us by
like a warm summer night
I get my feet wet and I follow down the tracks
a dream that hits different every time
(pre-ch)
in my head there’s a couple of things left
that keep me from being my best
in my head there’s a couple of things left
(chorus)
I am nothing but the clothes that I wear
you and me and my sweater
I am nothing but the clothes that I wear
In front of you I can lay bare
(v2)
Tuesday morning and I’m trapped inside again
remembering the time we spent
with my hands running through your hair
and I feel your breath and the fresh air
coming from the window over there
(bridge)
will this week ever end
I finally want it to be Thursday again
so I can feel your lips on mine
as we slowly undress inside

(v1)
remember when we held hands in the movies
I never followed through
too scared to lose you
too scared to tell you what I’ve felt
I’m the small dessert spoon
I’m rarely used
the only thing I ever want to change is everything
(chorus)
I really am my mother’s child
I always talk the loudest
I really am my mother’s child
and overshare what I’m about
when I should shut my mouth
(v2)
softly smiling she leaned over
and whispered in my ear
‘let’s drive home together later’
so I said ‘hey, I think about you way to many times not to care
about having you in my life but I’m here
on my Kawasaki motorbike
so I don’t really know how we’re gonna do this!’
(bridge)
I’m starved for love
It’s out of sight

Alone Again
03:48
|
|||
|
(v1)
Sitting on your couch
matching robes and underwear
trying to pick a movie
that we’re gonna miss
‘cause we’ll start kissing
(chorus)
maybe I am not as fine
as I thought that I would be
maybe you’re still so much more
than a memory
(v2)
and I will kiss you
in your Air Force One’s
listening to old Trophy Eyes songs
picturing myself somewhere else
I’m not meant to be here
(outro)
everything we do
is to be loved a little more
and everything I do
is to feel a little less alone
I wish that I could be
a little less like me
I wish that I could be
a little more like you
