Make it Suck

I’ve been paralyzed for so long
Fear of failure and what you think of me
Now I’m pushing back at everything
Embracing my own mediocrity
Make it easy
Make it simple
Make it short and fast without any intro
Sing it badly
And mess up the words
Avoid rhyme schemes and add an awkward pause
I don’t feel like writing a second verse
Blue blah blee blie gibberish or us
Plus I’m uninspired and poor with words
Coasting by with minimal effort
Make it easy
Make it simple
Make it short and fast without any intro
Sing it badly
And mess up the words
By all means make it suck; just start
Woah oh ah oh
Woah oh ah aa oh
Woah oh ah oh
WOOOO!
Make it easy
Make it simple
Make it short and fast without any intro
Sing it badly
And mess up the words
Bomb the industry and end it with a verse
This is me and I’m unashamed
Embracing my own mediocrity

Testing the Waters

I remember riding the bus to school
Headphones on and far removed
Exploring a happier place
Could I do the same for you?
I’m just testing the waters
By flamingo’ing the tub
To see is this for me?
Or should I stop pretending?
Music speaks right into the heart
And breaks down walls
Reminds us that we’re not alone
No matter where we are
Stirs up feelings of taking on the world
And flipping off the past
Makes your body tingle and moves you to tears
But I doubt you’ll find that here
I’m just testing the waters
By flamingo’ing the tub
To see is this for me?
Or should I stop pretending?
When it comes to your happiness
Talent is irrelevant
The world needs us to come alive
Pursue your dream, stop wasting time

Three Quarters

I watched you walk away like it didn’t mean anything to me
I covered up my ears so I can’t hear what you’re saying
I couldn’t be hurt if I didn’t care from the beginning
Still it left me feeling empty
This isn’t me
I know I should but don’t do it
This isn’t me
I want to stop but can’t help it
You asked for food, I shrugged and lied “I don’t have any money”
You asked for help, I kept walking ignoring what you said
I saw you shaking in the rain but then I looked away
And told myself you’ll be OK
This isn’t me
I know I should but don’t do it
This isn’t me
I want to stop but can’t help it
Most of the time I’m hiding something
Most of the time I’m hiding something
Most of the time I’m hiding something
Three quarters of the time my goodness is hiding

One last time before the music stops
Close our eyes and let our feelings talk
It doesn’t have to end like this but
I’ll understand if it’s what you want
So just for this one last time let’s forget
All of those silly thoughts in your head
If you could see it, then why not believe it?
Good things come and go so quick
So lets make this last one count
Before the candle flickers and fizzles out
Breath in the life that we could have
If you’ll just take my hand
This night could be a marking point in our lives
So lets not let this memory vainly die
If you could see it, then why not believe it?
Good things come and go so quick
The music stopped but we’re still dancing
I’m ready to hear your decision
Either way I’ll react the same
With either tears of joy, or of pain
Baby please tell me the truth
I break down and cry for you
If you could see it, then why not believe it?
Good things come and go so quick
I break down and cry for you
Good things come and go so quick
