rocket

I built a rocket so I’d escape
When I met you my plans changed
Decided I should scale it back
And put my own ambitions last
I built a rocket so I could leave
I try but can’t seem to break free
Is this how we'll always be
Stuck here for eternity
Trapped in a room the size of my dreams
Thinking how my life could've been
How small I’ve made myself become
To orbit in your solar system
I want to be where I can be
'Cause riding with you is not for me
No matter what, you'll disagree
I built a rocket to find myself
In the arms of someone else
I tried and tried to no avail
I can’t believe how much I’ve failed
I built a rocket to fantasy
Get out my life and restart Green
I wanted him to rescue me
So sad to think I’m this naïve
Trapped in a room the size of my dreams
Thinking how my life could've been
How small I’ve made myself become
To orbit in your solar system
I want to be where I can be
'Cause riding with you is not for me
No matter what, you'll disagree
I gotta start living for me
No more sitting on the sideline
Waiting for a lifeline
Who gone love me better?
No more trying to understand you
'Cause I don't give a damn, ooh
Why should I, why should I care?
Trapped in a room the size of my dreams
Thinking how my life could've been
How small I’ve made myself become
To orbit in your solar system
I want to be where I can be
'Cause riding with you is not for me
No matter what, you'll disagree
I gotta start living for me
Be my rocket out of here
Be my rocket out of here
Be my rocket out of here
Be my rocket out of here
Be my rocket out of here
Be my rocket out of here
Be my rocket out of here
Be my rocket out of here
Why are we here like this?
Starts in my bed
With you on my mind
And all my regrets
You're wasting my time
What goes around done comes around
And you ghost around
You come around me
It's not what you say
It's what I don't do
And all the lost words
I can't say to you
What goes around done comes around
And you ghost around
You come around me
What goes around comes around
Your ghost around comes around
Comes around
Comes around
Comes around
Comes around
Comes around
Your ghost around comes around

Wish he'd fuck the feelings right out of me
Take 'em out within my anatomy...
Man, that's insane. What am I saying?
Had a dream where I'd lived the simple life
Lost my hope making it out alright, but
You give me the same rush through my veins
Don't want to seem obsessed with you
Thought you'd give me something better to do
So dumb for telling a soul how I'm into you
Smoke a ----- and go and kick it and chill
Let my mind wander about you a little
Write some words down to cope with how I really feel
Let's get numb, be my poison
I want some, be my poison
Be my poison
I'mma get so high on you
Loving everything you do
Every word you drag me deeper into you, ooh
Let's get numb, be my poison
Be my poison
Damn I'm fucked up and I'm messing it up
As I think about you doing the right things
You symbolize there are other guys
And that's enough to keep trying
I find it strange how we're both like the same
Even at the surface you're enticing
Nothing good comes from a boy with your name
Let me burn it down, so exciting!
Don't want to seem obsessed with you
Thought you'd give me something better to do
So dumb for telling a soul how I'm into you
Smoke a ----- and go and kick it and chill
Let my mind wander about you a little
Write some words down to cope with how I really feel
Let's get numb, be my poison
I want some, be my poison
Be my poison
I'mma get so high on you
Loving everything you do
Every word you drag me deeper into you, ooh
Let's get numb, be my poison
Be my poison
You're too good for me to hold
I'll write a symphony to let you go
I thought you'd know
Noticed how you pulled it back
Overthinking wrote my best track, and oh
I thought you'd know
You got me in my feels
And I think I like it
And I can't go and hide it well
When in my feels
Why should I try and fight it
We can kick it and try it
We can kick it and try it
We can kick it and try it
We can kick it and try it

Damn you look good
And you probably got a girlfriend
Times are tough at home
It seems you need a new friend, and
I'd be there for you
Whatever you need to do
Not one to shy away
From a little mayhem
And right now it seems like
You could use some play, and
I'd be there for you
Whatever you need to do
'Cause yeah you got that vibe, vibe
Bad boy with a nice side
Love to smoke and get high
That's when you're honest with me
Your inhibitions fly free
I'll give you 30 minutes
To find in me whatever you were missing
That she couldn't provide for you, now listen
Promise not to fall in love with me
I'll give you half an hour
Do anything you want to, I'll allow it
Nobody's gotta know, the moment's ours
But promise not to fall in love with me
You could be my problem
And I'd be your solution
It's all in the process
Forget the execution
I'd be there for you
Whatever you need to do
I've been down this road
And it rarely leads to somewhere
But I'm like a dog
Submit to you, I don't care
I'd be there for you
Whatever you need to do
'Cause yeah you got that vibe, vibe
Bad boy with a nice side
Love to smoke and get high
That's when you're honest with me
Your inhibitions fly free
Your inhibitions fly free
I'll give you 30 minutes
To find in me whatever you were missing
That she couldn't provide for you, now listen
Promise not to fall in love with me
I'll give you half an hour
Do anything you want to, I'll allow it
Nobody's gotta know, the moment's ours
But promise not to fall in love with me
I'll give you 30 minutes
To find in me whatever you were missing
That she couldn't provide for you, now listen
Promise not to fall in love with me
I'll give you half an hour
Do anything you want to, I'll allow it
Nobody's gotta know, the moment's ours
But promise not to fall in love with me
Tell me your dreams
I want to know everything, everything
Tell me your fears
Are you scared of her, or us, or me
At night are you lonely
When you lay with her do you think of me?
Do you think of me when you fall asleep?
Am I on your mind every morning?

If I was good
I wouldn't want you so bad
I only think about you
All the time when I'm with him
You got yours and I got mine
Don't waste any of my time
Let's be careful where this goes
Oops! What happened to my clothes?
Like fuck it's automatic
Would you it's automatic
Fuck me automatic
Fuck me automatic
I have no self-control
And my lust pinned me to this wall
Yeah...?
Like I want you to do
You got yours and I got mine
Don't waste any of my time
Let's be careful where this goes
Oops! What happened to my clothes?
Like fuck it's automatic
Would you it's automatic
Fuck me automatic
Fuck me automatic
Fuck me automatic
Fuck me automatic
Fuck me auto... fuck me automatic
Fuck me automatic
Fuck me automatic
Fuck me automatic
Fuck me automatic

Damn, you ain't know how much
I love feeling your touch
It's kinda got me insane
Ooh, I can't resist it
I'll take what you're giving
You won't ever hear complaints
When the storm clouds come in
You can find me running
Out where pleasure meets the pain
Cover me in your rain
Cover me in your rain
Cover me in your rain
Cover me in your rain
Butterflies going like they're 'bout to take flight
Nervous and excited gonna have some fun tonight
I've been preperating for you to drop by
Gotta look my bestest if we throwing it down tonight
Gotta look my bestest if we throwing it down tonight
Gotta look my bestest if we throwing it down tonight
Green in my -----, we ain't going out tonight
Flying like a plane while you drive me out my mind
You and me got something beyond what meets the eye
The eye
The physical feeling you bring me I can't deny
Cover me in your rain
Cover me in your rain
Cover me in your rain
Cover me in your rain
Every time I think I've finally gotten over you
You always find a way to creep back into my love...

back in love with you

I know I shouldn't mess this up
But you know as well as me
That I can't get enough
And honesty is breaking up
Only if... for the two of us
Why do I find myself in this place
Every few years I see your face
And I remember everything
We used to do
"Coulda, shoulda, woulda" isn't
But my heart won't forget it soon
I found myself
Back in love with you
Yeah I know it's kinda strange (kinda strange)
I guess I could blame it on the quarantine (pour the champagne)
What little sense I thought I had (what little sense)
Gone like a wave that washes up on dry land
Why do I find myself in this place
Every few months there's someone new
And I contemplate on what I
Want to do
"Coulda, shoulda, woulda" isn't
I can't keep my heart imprisoned
I found myself
Back in love with you

longing

I don't know how I'll forget
But I can't live with these regrets
And I still see you wherever
And dream of us together
You don't wanna know, you don't wanna know
What I did for love, what I did for us
I'd have sold my soul to let your demons go
But I messed things up, afraid of love
Yeah, I'm so fortunate with all that I have, but
I'm still longing, I'm still longing for you
It's unfinished business and I can't forget that
I'm still longing, I'm still longing for you
The one...
You're the one that got away
I remember that cold November day
I was torn up inside when you stood by my side
Gave me your number - I felt something again
But I didn't want you to know in fear that you'd let me go
So I stood burning up messed up on love
You don't wanna know, you don't wanna know
What I did for love, what I did for us
I'd have sold my soul to let your demons go
But I messed things up, afraid of love
Yeah, I'm so fortunate with all that I have, but
I'm still longing, I'm still longing for you
It's unfinished business and I can't forget that
I'm still longing, I'm still longing for you

I been in that same place waiting for you
Got a lot of baggage you wanna undo
And nothing seems to help you find your way through
I can tell it in the way you check out like I do
Pretty sure our stories will end the same
And we're postponing feeling that kinda pain
So for now let me feel you take me away
And imagine the life that we coulda made
Now we keep it casual
But don't know what the future holds
I'm ready for anything
Don't want to rush to wedding rings... yet
I just wanna love you love you
Love you love you love you
Like broken hearted lover lover
Lover lover lovers
I just wanna hold you til you love me
Like you love her
Let you love away the hurt from loving
All the others
So, why don't we get together?
The sex might be better for us... anyway
Makes sense, since we're on the same level
The subtle signs I can tell you ain't happy with her
Please stop me if I start to fall
But please don't go and break my heart
Take it at the pace you like
And fix me 'til we're both alright
I just wanna love you love you
Love you love you love you
Like broken hearted lover lover
Lover lover lovers
I just wanna hold you til you love me
Like you love her
Let you love away the hurt from loving
All the others
I just wanna make something beautiful
Something that can find the cure in both of us
Something that can heal the pain the trauma caused
And find our way back to love
I just wanna love you love you
Love you love you love you
Like broken hearted lover lover
Lover lover lovers
I just wanna hold you til you love me
Like you love her
Let you love away the hurt from loving
All the others
I just wanna love you love you
Love you love you love you
Like broken hearted lover lover
Lover lover lovers
I just wanna hold you til you love me
Like you love her
Let you love away the hurt from loving
All the others
Hold you til you love me like you love her
Hold you til you love me like you love her
Hold you til you love me like you love her
Hold you til you love me like you love her

make the bed

I'd be remiss to not recognize differences
Disagree on fundamental politics
Curious minds want to prove they're best
Yet I can't say that we're polar opposites
Tension's always there, ready to ignite
Smoke-filled rooms under candlelight
When we get together, things turn out alright
Some magic in the touch keeps us alive
You can't tell me that there's nothing
To do except despair
You can't tell me that there's something
The physical can't repair
So why don't we
Make the bed, make the bed
Make the bed
The place we
Get over it, over it
Over it
Where you could make me forgive anything
Where you could make me forget everything
Let me come over, make it complicated
Boy, we don't have to dwell on it
We don't need to talk, just hands all over
Storytelling with our bodies in a way
We forget all of our grievances
Only love in the raw and honest
Getting high 'til something better hits
You can't tell me that there's nothing
To do except despair
You can't tell me that there's something
The physical can't repair
So why don't we
Make the bed, make the bed
Make the bed
The place we
Get over it, over it
Over it
Where you could make me forgive anything
Where you could make me forget everything
I don't have anything to lose
By telling you I love what you do
And I love making love with you
So much, there's nothing I won't do
We don't need to say anything
Continue to talk with our hands
And forget why we got mad
Take the anger out in the bed

longer than goodbye
03:26

It wasn't supposed to happen this way
I'm so love-starved that I can't stay
The proper emotional distance
And to hell with my resistance
Right now my feelings won't rest
I'm trying to do what's best
But these butterflies won't settle
Thinking you might treat me better than him
My kryptonite, can't run and hide
You make me weak in my knees
You got appeal, and I want to see
You every night in my dreams
'Cause we could be fine
Or Bonnie and Clyde
Caught up in the potential
We'd be alright, and we'd never fight
'Cause everything's inconsequential
Or we could stay friends
So I can see your pretty face again
Way longer than goodbye
Stay longer than goodbye
And it's not enough with me
Living in this one-sided love
Stay longer than goodbye
Way longer than goodbye
I need answers
'Cause I got so many questions
That keep going unanswered
'Cause I won't ask the questions
Could we work it out, I'm having my doubts
Could we start this conversation
I'm getting around, inside melting down
I'm patient but tired of waiting
I offer to be whatever you need
My future is in your discretion
I don't want to regret anything
We don't have to make it official
Or we could stay friends
So I can see your pretty face again
Way longer than goodbye
Stay longer than goodbye
And it's not enough with me
Living in this one-sided love
Stay longer than goodbye
Way longer than goodbye
