and waiting for those who dont want me

I know that I told u
but I just need anything to give love to
ur buggin if u think im in love with u
I know that I told u
but I just need anything to give love to
theres a Beetle in the pool nd im reaching out 4 u
nd ur clinging to my fingerprints
flashing purple blue
coz theres a Beetle in the pool nd im reaching out 4 u
nd ur clinging to my fingerprints
flashing purple blue
I get hung up
biting my tongue
nd sucking my thumb
and waiting for those who dont want me
nd u pile up
n I hope to go numb
but I scavenge the crumbs
and follow the trails that u leave me
I was bugging when I said im in love w u
I know that I told u
But I just need anything to give love to
I was bugging when I said im in love w u
I know that I told u
but id give luv to anything tht hurts like u

I wake up on a Friday and I know that hes gone.
i jus need somewhere warm I can curl up
jus to rest my head
i just need someone that i can screw up
like his cigarettes.
he called me prophetic but im a fuck up.
call me that instead.
im posting this bullshit so he’ll know im up.
but he’s with his friends.
he’s all i talk about
hes all i talk about
wish I could get him outta my mouth
but hes all i talk about
I sleep in on the weekend coz he’s not in my dawn.
I just need someone that I can shut out
jus to get ahead
I just need something that I can hear out
jus so its misread
he called me electric but im a black out
call me that instead.
id cling like a leech if hed put his arm out
til im in his head.
hes all I talk about
hes all I talk about.
wish I could get him outta my mouth
but he’s all I talk abt
hes all I talk abt
hes all I talk abt
talk abt
hes all I talk abt
hes all I talk abt
wish I could get him outta my mouth

swallowing stones
on the way to ur home
I waste time being wistful and slow
get so tired of singing ur songs
say ill move to the city
when im finally grown
but I been driving the long way home
round the block just to finish that song
deciduous forest aint growin my way
say thingsll get better when I get away
but I been watching the skyline and been getting home late
counting ways that I luv u nd lights on the parkway
where was I hiding when
we all grew up
watching blinking lights changing
on the edge of some bluff
I keep making mistakes
Nd they’re not makin me any tougher
nd I wish everyone liked me but
ud b more than enough
swallowing stones
on the way past ur home
I like who ur parents r voting for
theres a sign on ur lawn
im gunna move to the city
when they tell me that ive grown
we could waste our lives being wistful and slow
miss my prime while im choking on stones

why do I feel like im half of a whole
with this head on my shoulders 10 fingers and toes
its me that i live for but you i cant help but extol
call me 1/2 but i think that im all that i have
call me 1/2 but i think that im all that i have
ur people flow thru jus to give and to take
the crossing guards, lovers, and summer camp friends
and the teachers from the 7th grade
so all of these bad days are gunna grow worn with age
til the hairpins and nickels that gleam on ur floor
are th only things that remain
why do I feel like im half of a whole
with this head on my shoulders 10 fingers and toes
its me that i live for but you i cant help but extol
call me 1/2 but i think that im all that i have
call me 1/2 but i think that im all that i have
call me 1/2 but i think that im all that i have
call me 1/2 but i think that im all that i have

When I watch a movie
I skip to where they kiss
Nd i said im improving
So you’d love me jus like this
ill wait up for u
ill wake up for you
talk to strangers in the elevator so
U think im friendly like u
make my bed for u
for when u finally come thru
do I write these sad songs just to sing them to you?
could u give me a gold star and see me thru?
I found myself eating
candy after the parade
It was smashed in the pavement
on the sidewalk in the shade
Ill wait up for u
Ill wake up for you
talk to strangers in the elevator so
U think im charming like u
make my bed for u
for when u finally come thru
do I write these sad songs just to sing them to you?
could u give me a gold star and see me thru
