LAVENDER HAZE

meet me at midnight

oh, you don’t ever say too much

i’ve been under scrutiny

all this shit is new to me

i’m damned if i do give a damn what people say

all they keep asking me is if i’m gonna be your bride

the only kinda girl they see is a one-night or a wife

they’re bringing up my history, but you weren’t even listening

get it off your chest

i just wanna stay

MAROON

how’d we end up on the floor anyway?

how the hell did we lose sight of us again?

ain’t that the way shit always ends

i feel you, no matter what

and i wake with your memory over me

that’s a real fuckin’ legacy to leave

ANTI-HERO

i have this thing where I get older, but just never wiser

midnights become my afternoons

i should not be left to my own devices

one day I’ll watch as you’re leaving ‘cause you got tired of my scheming for the last time

i’m the problem, it’s me

i’ll stare directly at the sun, but never in the mirror

it must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

sometimes i feel like everybody is a sexy baby and i’m a monster on the hill

did you hear my covert narcissism i disguise as altruism like some kind of congressman?

i have this dream my daughter-in-law kills me for the money

she’s laughing up at us from hell!

SNOW ON THE BEACH

life is emotionally abusive

time can’t stop me quite like you did

i’m unglued, thanks to you

you wanting me tonight feels impossible

it’s fine to fake it till you make it

can this be a real thing, can it?

YOU’RE ON YOUR OWN, KID

i play it cool with the best of them

it’s okay, we’re the best of friends

i touch my phone as if it’s your face

there’s just one who could make me stay all my days

i waited ages to see you there

you’re on your own, kid; you always have been

i picked the petals, he loves me not

i called a taxi to take me there

everything you lose is a step you take

you’ve got no reason to be afraid

MIDNIGHT RAIN

i wanted that pain

all of me changed

i broke his heart ‘cause he was nice

i guess sometimes we all get just what we wanted

he never thinks of me

i guess sometimes we all get some kind of haunted

i never think of him except on midnights like this

QUESTION…?

i swear that it was something

i don’t remember who i was before you

i just may like some explanations

can i ask you a question?

did you ever have someone kiss you in a crowded room

every single one of your friends was making fun of you

then what did you do?

did you leave her house in the middle of the night?

did you wish you’d put up more of a fight

do you wish you could still touch her?

it’s just a question

i just may like to have a conversation

what’s that that i heard, that you’re still with her?

that’s nice, i’m sure that’s what’s suitable

VIGILANTE SHIT

draw the cat eye sharp enough to kill a man

you did some bad things, but i’m the worst of them

sometimes i wonder which one will be your last lie

they say looks can kill and i might try

lately i’ve been dressing for revenge

i don’t start shit, but i can tell you how it ends

don’t get sad, get even

i’m on my vigilante shit again

BEJEWELED

i think I’ve been a little too kind

putting someone first only works when you’re in their top five

i’m going out tonight

do you have a man?

familiarity breeds contempt

don’t put me in the basement when i want the penthouse of your heart

i polish up real nice

i think i’ve been too good of a girl

did all the extra credit then got graded on a curve

i think it’s time to teach some lessons

LABYRINTH

‘it only hurts this much right now,’ was what i was thinking the whole time

i’ll be getting over you my whole life

uh oh, i’m falling in love

you would break your back to make me break a smile

you know how much i hate that everybody just expects me to bounce back just like that

KARMA

you’re talking shit for the hell of it

you wouldn’t know what i mean

me and karma vibe like that

don’t you know that cash ain’t the only price?

ask me what i learned from all those years

ask me what i earned from all those tears

ask me why so many fade but i’m still here

SWEET NOTHING

they said the end is coming

everyone’s up to something

i find myself running home to your sweet nothings

all that you ever wanted from me was sweet nothing

on the way home i wrote a poem

you should be doing more

to you i can admit hat i’m just too soft for all of it

MASTERMIND

you and i ended up in the same room at the same time

what if i told you none of it was accidental

i laid the groundwork and then just like clockwork the dominoes cascaded in a line

what if i told you i’m a mastermind?

if you fail to plan, you plan to fail

no one wanted to play with me as a little kid

this is the first time i’ve felt the need to confess

i’m only cryptic and machiavellian 'cause i care
