Margot

Verse 1
She doesn’t say much
She doesn’t need to
The words are written on her face
And though hopeless romantics have tried
to wow her, there’s nobody else but you
Chorus
Margot are you comfortable, sitting in the bathtub, dangling cigarettes between your lips?
You keep the door locked, fan on, blowing smoke toward the the windowsill, oh margot
Verse 2
Time stops when she walks down from the bus stop
Every man there can’t help but sit and stare, at this girl, at this girl
Chorus
Margot are you comfortable, sitting in the bathtub, dangling cigarettes between your lips?
You keep the door locked, fan on, blowing smoke toward the the windowsill, oh Margot
Bridge
She was someone without anyone to love until you came around to hold her tight
Stage plays and wooden fingers, cigarette butts on the floor, secrets kept safe

Four Wheels
03:05
|
|||
|
Chorus
Four wheels rolling down a suburban neighbourhood
Doing nothing good wasting time again
Kick, push, and ollie down the street but watch your step | cause if you need new shoes it all depends on what you’re gonna get
Verse 1
Some days are better than others, darling
Why don’t you understand?
It’s not that I don’t want to see you,
I’m just bored of playing pretend
Chorus
Verse 2
There are things that I’d rather do
than be played like a puppet by you
Cause when I try to look at you love
My heart drops and I feel destroyed
Chorus
Bridge
Summer’s coming to an end, the days are shorter and my thoughts keep running ‘round in my head
They’re of you, they’re of you, my love, they’re of you and what can I do?

Why Don't You Sing?
03:50
|
|||
|
Verse 1
The old man, lonely as can be, waits for somebody unsuspecting
“Would you like an ice cold drink?” he asks them
They smile then say they would.
Chorus
The question now is, “Why don’t you dance?”
Why don’t you sing and put yourself in a trance?
Is it so hard to ask
Just where you’re calling from?
Verse 2
Alone together, they lie on the floor, thoughts running through their heads
On the front yard, with furniture around, they dance and drink and wait to die
Chorus
Bridge
Later on she tells her friends about him, the man with a bedroom in his yard
She tries to tell them, but the words wouldn’t form at her lips, at her lips

Kind of Raw
02:16
|
|||
|
I always thought that you were kind of raw
Kind of freaky but that ain’t a flaw
I know it’s hard to explain
The emotions that come into play
When you look at me
Is it easy to see
A man lost at space
Wasting his time
Waiting for you to radio in
and tell me that it’s fine
Will they or they or won’t they, that’s what I’m wondering, it’s pointless to fall in love
Cause romance is such a bore, I know, i’ve felt it before
I always thought that you were kind of raw
Kind of freaky but that ain’t a flaw
I know it’s hard to explain
The emotions that come into play
It’s odd I feel this way, your words are fire to my soul
They’re a burning, searing, scarring, pain, a world unknown

Insomnia
03:51
|
|||
|
Verse 1
It’s four am and my eyes have not yet shut
Memories once lived keep me up, make me tired again
Prechorus 1
And though the blinds block the sun
It doesn’t help
Chorus
Something’s keeping me up, it’s true
Something terrifying, something ‘bout you
At night, it feeds on the corners of my mind
That I save for you
Verse 2
On my pillow sits the telephone
The dial tone rings in my ears
Prechorus 2
It’s loud and hurts my brain
but yet it stays
Chorus
Bridge
The birds start chirping and the cars come roarin past my window
With every single second the weight of the world gets heavier
Chorus
(Insomnia, take me as I am, insomnia)
