lyrics

I saw a movie that I thought you might like where a girl kisses her brother
But in the end she get with a guy a lot like me
He shoots first and he’s really not that smart, standing frozen
He’s a joke for all to see

Like the kid who studied for college
got a debt the bank would acknowledge
Punchline no one’s rich studying history
they say that it repeats itself,
but it’s written by the victors

if i did it all again i wouldn’t change my regrets
Breath in all the smoke that’ll one day kill me

Where’s your creativity Diane
You can’t wish for things to work

Give me a drink or something more that I can hold on to
Keep me warm while away
A double shot, for all the things I wish that I forgot
Keep the porch light on and wolves away

For my 3 weeks on
I made you a mixtape
People that can say these things so much better than me
It won’t feel that long
I say through a plastic smile
Turn your back

I’ll take off trading asphalt for red rock and the comforts that they bring me
They don’t sell that brand out here
The tyranny of distance and what it won’t allow
Till 28 days later

smash some lipstick on, pour yourself another
lay down on the bed
bite your lip and make yourself at home
wait for the call

If you had to do it all again, would you change my regrets
help me breathe the smoke that will one day kill me

Where’s your creativity Diane
You can’t wish for things to work

Give me a drink or something more that I can hold on to
Keep me warm while away
A double shot, for all the things I wish that I forgot
Keep the porch light on and wolves away
