Magic Stone

How can a sun be born out of a moon
How could she shine when my color is blue
Is there a word bigger than love
This is the place where I’m finally enough
How could she shine so bright that it hurts
She’s like a fire out in the summer woods
Deep down in the forest
I find her in cave
Glowing like a magic stone
Pick her up and take her home
And I’ve been on this journey all my life
I’ve been down but now I feel so high
And not like them bad drugs
No this feels so divine
I wanna scream it
Shout it all the time
How could she shine so bright that it hurts
She’s like a fire out in the summer woods
Deep down in the forest
I find her in cave
Glowing like a magic stone
Pick her up and take her home
I couldn’t love you more
Something would break if I did
My heart is in overload
Over this

Burger

Eating a burger alone in the sun
Raging anxiety and I’m all alone
Three hours from drinking
To feel anything
I’m outside the venues
While they’re sound checking
What is the point of this?
Somebody asked me and I didn’t know what to say
What’s the point of this?
I guess chasing the dream was a big mistake
When I go to sleep in the car the next day
I keep on moving my restless legs
I pretend that I live in all the houses that we pass
Try not to think about that times goes by fast
FaceTimeing backstage I can’t hear a word
I can just see them move in slow motion
It’s like I could smell her little head trough the phone
But she’s with her daddy and I’m all alone
What is the point of this?
Somebody asked me and I didn’t know what to say
What’s the point of this?
I guess chasing the dream was a big mistake
What is the point of this?
Somebody asked me and I didn’t know what to say
What’s the point of this?
I guess chasing the dream was a big mistake
Big mistake

Halloween Costume
02:29

Could you imagine getting dragged out on a field
Laying there cold and confused in a Halloween costume
Out on the country side
With no parents around
Only mad boys allowed
Everyone I knew didn’t know me
And I swear
When I get out of here
I’ll be a mad woman
When I get out of here
I’ll be a mad woman
When I get out of here
I’ll be a mad woman
When I get out of here, I’ll be a
Sad girl
Could you imagine giving head in the backseat
As a sign of gratitude for driving you home safe
Out on the country side
Right by the train rails
Running from wild dogs
Everyone I knew didn’t know me
And I swear
When I get out of here
I’ll be a mad woman
When I get out of here
I’ll be a mad woman
When I get out of here
I’ll be a mad woman
When I get out of here, I’ll be a
Sad girl
Mad woman
Mad woman
Mad woman

Belly Shots

I was on my way to the top, yeah
Crowd-surfing on my back, yeah
Champagne, cherry on the top, yeah
Hotel rooms, riding in the front, yeah
But I was always dreaming about something else
I was always hungover and sad in that place
I was always dreaming about something else
And when I closed my eyes, I could see you
I was on my way to the top, yeah
Jerking off to pictures of myself, yeah
Cocaine party and I was going topless
Heavy drinking, belly shots, yeah
But I was always dreaming about something else
I was always hungover and sad in that place
I was always dreaming about something else
And when I close my eyes, I can see you
When I close my eyes, I can see you
When I close my eyes, I can see you
When I close my eyes, I can see you
When I close my eyes, I can see you
I was on my way to the top, yeah

It's a Beautiful Dream
02:53
|

|
I was on the road
It was midnight
I was not alone
You were inside
There came a heatwave
I was crying
Had to keep going
Felt I was dying
Sweating in my night gown
I walked into the field
Felt I was going crazy
With my body full of fear
Your daddy is the sweetest
Kindest man I know
Holds me when I’m hurting
And say I can’t go on
His warm hands on my belly
Not scarred for the unknown
Patient like an angel
Makes me feel like home
There came a heatwave
I was crying
Had to keep going
Felt I was dying
Sweating in my night gown
I walked in to the field
Felt I was going crazy
With my body full of fear
This is my nightmare
It’s a beautiful dream
I can’t wait
Wait until we meet

Mercedes
02:56

I come from a broken family
I hope that my baby can make it heal
I’ve been pregnant for nine weeks
Feels like I’ve been waiting for a year
It gets heavy when I stand up
So tired when I lay myself down
I’ve been getting nightmares
Scared that you won’t stay around
Mercedes is that your name?
Mercedes I never wanna cause you any pain
And I can feel it washing over me
Anticipation what I’m about to see
Mercedes you can always run to me
I come from a different kind of place
A kind of place where you leave and you don’t stay
I have been pregnant for nine weeks now
I feel like I’ve been waiting for a year
It gets heavy when I stand up
So tired when I lay myself down
I’ve been getting nightmares
Scared that you won’t stay around
Mercedes is that your name?
Mercedes I never wanna cause you any pain
And I can feel it washing over me
Anticipation what I’m about to see
Mercedes you can always run to me
You can always run to me

Bridge
02:54
|

There’s a bridge in my town
Where some people goes up to jump
I thought about it many times
But I always pussied out somehow
I can feel it in the wind
Salty pieces from the ocean blowing in
You know it’s time for a change
When you’re pushing 30 but feel the same
I tried to get out of here once
We drove all the way and I was gone
I stayed with the kindest man in town
But I broke his heart and he broke mine
I use to be a wild one
Alice party I got naked and drunk
I’m not embarrassed by it now
But when it happen I thought
I was gonna die
Looking back at us now
21 and still miss her smile
I see her walking down the street
But now I am older and she’s still young to me
I tried to get out of here once
We drove all the way and I was gone
I stayed with the kindest man in town
But I broke his heart and he broke mine

I want it it all
The baby and the boy
I want it all
The fame but not the fall
Is it to much to ask for
Well maybe it is
Ever since
Since I was a kid
I wanted to
Be famous and rich
But who am I
To ask for all this
Sunny Philadelphia
On the TV screen
I cover my windows so they can’t see me
My body is changing now every week
And I’m not ready for my baby
In another life
I would wake up content
Go to my job
Then take the bus home again
I would cherish all the small things
I would make you feel good
I regret it all
All the shit I ever said
About other girls
That’s how you make your own bed
So sorry if I hurt anyone
By acting this way
Sunny Philadelphia
On the TV screen
I cover my windows so they can’t see me
My body is changing every week
And I’m not ready for my baby

Hospital Window
03:15

First time she got sick
It was just a fever
But I imaged her when she was old
And what I saw was beautiful
When I pushed her out
I could hear my heart beat
The greatest love I ever felt
And the pain didn’t even hurt me
The night sky
Turned in to a bright sky
Clear blue morning light
Outside that hospital window
My whole body
Clinging to his hands so tight
And I could see my whole life
Passing under my closed eyes
And what I saw was beautiful
First time she got sick
It was just a fever
I do my best to comfort her
Cause when she cries it hurts me too
When I saw her eyes
Dark just like the ocean
The greatest love I ever felt
And the pain didn’t really hurt me
The night sky
Turned in to a bright sky
Clear blue morning light
Outside my hospital window
My whole body
Hanging to his hands so tight
And I could see my whole life
Passing under my closed eyes
And what I saw was beautiful

I feel like the worst worst mom today
You screamed all night
And you probably gonna cry all day
And I’ll run you a bath
Trying to start all over again
But nothing really works
I feel like the worst mom today
You came out of my body
Every part of it changed
Now everything is hurting
I can’t even walk the same
I can’t fit in my old shoes
Stuck in this sad baby blues
And I feel like the worst mom today
I don’t even know where I end and you begin
I don’t even know who I am without you
I don’t even know where I end and you begin
I don’t even know who I am without you
Funny how they say time moves so fast
I should be more grateful
Make every second last
But man I’m so tired
All I wanna do is sleep
Every day is Groundhog Day
All we do is on repeat
But when you smile
It feels just like sunshine
How hard it hits me
Just like the first time
I don’t even know where I end and you begin
I don’t even know who I am without you
I don’t even know where I end and you begin
All I know is that
I love you
Hey
