Sober & Blind 03:07
lyrics

One shot and you’re already over it Call me a lightweight - what a hypocrite Lying on the ping-pong table Spewing nonsense But we just go with it Vision like I forgot my glasses Wish my friends would get off their asses But they just look to me To tie your hair back While they’re laughin’ And from the bathroom floor You throw your heart up ‘Til there’s nothing more And you say, “yes” There’s something weighin’ on your chest And though tonight I share your eyes Oh tomorrow we’ll be sober and blind We’ll be sober and blind Fluorescent lights work like a time machine We barely look like we are seventeen With a quivering lip and pink in our cheeks Caught in our childlike honesty And from the bathroom floor You throw your heart up ‘Til there’s nothing more And you say, “yes” There’s something weighin’ on your chest And with your back against the wall Oh you tell me how it’s not all Daisies and roses And you say, “yes” There’s something weighin’ on your chest And though tonight I share your eyes Oh tomorrow we’ll be sober and blind We’ll be sober and I swore I’d be the one to tie you to shore But somehow we’re both dragged to the floor And you say “No one will notice when we open that door So what is there left to fight for?” And you say, “yes” There’s something weighin’ on your chest And with your back against the wall Oh you tell me how it’s not all Daisies and roses. And you say, “yes” There’s something weighin’ on your chest And though tonight I share your eyes Oh tomorrow we’ll be sober and blind We’ll be sober and blind

White String Lights 04:09
lyrics

Violets from the neighbors garden Put ‘em in an empty beer bottle And place them on the cardboard box You use as a nightstand You don’t get home 'til there’s sun through the blinds I’m worried bout the way they’re treating you But you say that it’s fine You still got laugh lines from smilin’ But I can tell it’s getting hard I don’t wanna see it fall apart Your whole world come crashing down But under the white string lights Could see a sky of stars in your eyes And I feel myself fall inside them Drifting away in the glow of the white string lights Those white string lights Combat boots under my only dress Watching you place at another restaurant 'Til there’s no one left I know you do it all for nothing Like a kid with no fear of the dark And I don’t wanna be the one to make Your whole world come crashing down Cause under the white string lights could See a sky of stars in your eyes And I feel myself fall inside them Drifting away in the glow of the white string lights Falling aimlessly We lost our gravity And we fall apart Cause we just can’t find the spark And under the white string lights could See a sky of stars in your eyes 'Til one by one they all went dark and You’re drifting away And under the white string lights could See a sky of stars in your eyes 'Til one by one they all went dark and You’re someone that I can’t recognize Under the white string lights

Too Good 03:01
lyrics

You drop your head to look at me How does your messy hair look always in place? Like every moment’s a movie scene And then you, you call me “darlin” I turn red in the face But you should know that when I’m in your arms Things are better than I’d like to admit So don’t apologize for your drunk texts You know I’ve been Searching for someone like me who’s always Lookin’ to dance Oh, you’re too good for me You’re too, you’re too good It’s something ‘bout the way you sing Shamelessly and at the top of your lungs You’re yellin’ “I shoulda kissed you in the rain Cause nothin’s more romantic You should be here with me" And you should know that when I’m in your arms Things are better than I’d like to admit So don’t apologize for your drunk texts You know I’ve been Searching for someone like me who’s always Lookin’ to dance Oh, you’re too good for me You’re too, you’re too good And when you turn on your car Oh the first thing that plays Is a cheesy love song from 2008 Oh, you’re too good for me You’re too, you’re too good “I shoulda kissed you in the rain, Sweep you off your feet but I’m afraid, I shoulda kissed you in the rain.” Well come say it, come say it to my face And don’t apologize for your drunk texts You know I’ve been Searching for someone like me who’s always Lookin’ to dance Oh, you’re too good for me You’re too, you’re too good And when you turn on your car Oh the first thing that plays Is a cheesy love song from 2008 Oh, you’re too good for me You’re too, you’re too good You're too good, too good, good for me You're too good, too good, good for me You're too good, too good, good for me I shoulda kissed you in the rain Oh you're too good for me

about

"From the Bathroom Floor" is the bridge from childhood to adulthood; the stories that tell the loss of youth's innocence and the smallest preservation of that hope.
