Not So Pretty

i'm not so pretty
i'm not so clean
if only you could read what’s written in between me
and holding flowers
won’t make me look pure
and writing all these songs about it isn’t a cure
but who says what’s good
who says I can’t when I know I should
don’t show me mercy
no, not this time
and don’t you read into my words
i’m fine, I’m fine
but who says what’s right
and who tells us how we should suffer through life
i'm so sick from you
and I wish that I could feel just like I used to
i'm not so happy
and I’m so tired of trying
to fill the hole I carved myself with lies
all lies
but when will it end
and how will I call myself friend again?

why don’t you call me anymore?
i just want to hear you, say “I love you” once more
and it’s a shame how we ended up this way
but it feels so good to see you walk away from me
from me
i can’t feel you anymore
like words in the sand washed away by the shore
but who’s to blame for us ending up this way
and out of my sight you slowly melt away from me
and I remember
and I remember
the night he walked me home
you exited the picture
and his reassurance
makes me believe that he is better
why don’t you call me anymore?

Burning Room
03:36

my god, theres a pain in my head
and it grows stronger with each word I’ve never said
and I’m cursing all the pages I set fire to
maybe when you find the ashes it will mean something to you
if I heard you speak my name
or a word that even vaguely sounds the same
i’d forget about the mess you made and clean up after you
and I’d tell you that you’re beautiful
and how much I love you
‘cause you’re the only voice worth hearing anymore
and you’re the only thing that’s keeping me from hitting the floor
but if you can’t find a reason, please don’t stay
i think I’ll lie in this burning room a while
with everything I should’ve said
holding on to every page that I set fire to
does that mean something to you?
you’re the only thing that’s keeping me from hitting the floor
but if you can’t find a reason, please don’t stay

birds, are people watching
some are singing and some are smiling
look up, even when the sky is crying
over the clouds the sky is always trying
sipping coffee with the cat
sometimes the little things that
please me, take it easy
ahh
more of a happiness
less of a funny mess
I never thought I could
but I did and it’s good
got myself off the fence
last night I dreamt in french
un oiseau bleu s’est posé dans ma main
avec ta voix il chanta le refrain
and he sang
ahh
more of a happiness
less of a funny mess
I never thought I could
but I did and it’s good
that's love I guess
two birds in a nest
that’s love I guess
that way's best
more of a happiness
less of a funny mess
i never thought I would
but I did and it’s good

Too Late

when I’m sorry isn’t enough, what will there be?
will I fall through the cracks between you and me?
and if I fall, would you catch me or would you let it kill me?
and my psychic told me I have to change my ways
and she mentioned something else about expecting delays
if I don’t change, will you grow to hate the sound of my name?
will I, will I ever be enough?
with all of my ways of screwing up
if you fix me now it won’t be too late
so please don’t say it’s too late
when you’re tired of me, will you let me go?
or will your big stupid heart refuse to tell me no.
will you turn cold, and will the feeling of me start to just feel old?
will I, will I ever be enough?
with all of my ways of screwing up
if you fix me now it won’t be too late
please don’t say it’s too late
is it too late?
am I too late?
why did I wait?
