HAPPY

I poured him tea and he told me it'll all be okay

I locked the door behind him

And when you go, take this heart

I'll make no more use of it when there's no more you

And if you're going, take the moon

DAN THE DANCER

I saw the setting sun on your neck

We keep it secret

If you would let me give you pinky promise kisses

Then I wouldn't have to scream your name atop of every roof in the city of my heart

FIREWORKS

I'll keep going to work and you won't see a change

I will go jogging routinely

I'll hear fireworks outside

You know in the quiet he holds

YOUR BEST AMERICAN GIRL

And kiss your fingers forevermore

Well I'm not the moon, I'm not even a star

You're the sun, you've never seen the night

Your mother wouldn't approve of how my mother raised me

I BET ON LOSING DOGS

I bet on losing dogs

Where I'll be looking in their eyes when they're down

I know they're losing and I pay for my place

I always want you when I'm finally fine

MY BODY’S MADE OF CRUSHED LITTLE STARS

I'm not doing anything

I wanna see the whole world

I don't know how I'm gonna pay rent

I better ace that interview

I should tell them that I'm not afraid to die

I work better under a deadline

Would you kill me, [NAME]

THURSDAY GIRL

It shows me what I am

I'm not happy or sad

And tell me no

 A LOVING FEELING

What would you do with a loving feeling?

Holding hands under the table

I’m staying up late just in case you come up

You only love me when we’re all alone

A BURNING HILL

Today I will wear my white button-down

I'm tired of wanting more

You have a way of promising things
