Siege

I write songs about games,
They're nothing like the ones you're playing girl.
I'll tell you all about my fame,
Even if it's a little bit late.
I am under Siege,
Can you rescue me?
Another Saturday night,
Staying in to write again.
You think it's sad I don't go out,
I think it's sad that's all you think to do.
I am under Siege,
Can you rescue me?

Boat ramps

Some days you can be so nice to me
other days you're so mean
a girl that'll make you feel like fireworks
or drive off a ravine
You told me to come back to yours
and I said 'all right'
after a couple of drinks it's clear
that you're worth the fight
I'm waiting just outside your house
just give me a sign
come a little closer to me
and we'll be just fine
it's cold and dark and wet in here
all at the same time
it may be a little unorganised
but at least it's all mine
And if I didn't hate myself
we both know I would quit
but as it stands I'm not quite sure
what we can do about it
and your mother does not approve of me
but you and I both know that's all right
someday we'll buy that house in Westlake
we can fuck at the boat ramps whenever we like

Rain
02:35
|

Sit by your window
Wait and watch cars go by
We both know you're leaving
and we both know the reason why
We both know I'm grieving
We both know I'll have to say goodbye
Rain is falling
Just like my spirits to the ground
I just got home
Unlock the door to my apartment
Put my phone on a table
It's been vibrating since I left
I can't face you
I can't even bear to hear your voice
Rain is falling
Just like your plane to the ground
It's six months later
You call and tell me you're back in town
You say we should meet up
We both know that'll just get me down
I can't face you
Even after all this time
Rain is falling
Just like the life we left behind

Infirmary

She'll tread past
and she's got her own plans
I'll grit my teeth
Because you never say hi to me
I'm down at the infirmary
You will try to bring her to me
These wounds, they cannot heal
Because you're not there with me
I was completely in love with her
Before I'd even known of her
and the way she fixes everything but me
It makes me so out of it
She won't give her time to me
She won't give her time to me
She won't give her time to me
She won't give her time to me
Something from that day changed in me
I wish she'd pull it out of me
and the cold of her stare
Please give your time to me
She'll turn me into a murderer
Someone should probably tether her
Far away so I can't hear
I can still hear her
I know now that I am doomed
These books will be my latest tomb
I can't get out
Everyone's forgotten me
She won't give her time to me
She won't give her time to me
She won't give her time to me
She won't give her time to me

Coffee Shops
03:22

We'll make small talk
You'll ask if we can go
To that coffee shop
Just on the corner of fifth
It'll start raining
You'll go and get your coat
Things will be just the way they were
Two days before you left
Isn't she strange?
Isn't she maddening?
I don't want to know
anyone else but her
My eyes are dry
I say I'll back off tonight
See if I can figure out
just what to do with my hands
Shadows jump out at me
Their claws dig in and bite
You're the last day of Summer
You can go out without a coat
Isn't she strange?
Isn't she maddening?
I don't want to know
anyone else but her
