I've got insomnia
I'm up at 3:00
Must be sativa
caffeine or Kira
I clench my teeth and grind
I think about you all the time
And when I'm awake all night
I think about you by his side

I cut out my friends
and I really don't mean to.
The guilt never ends--
it's a feeling I'm used to.
I just need a hug,
but I don't want to touch you.
And I just want to fuck,
but I don't want to love you.
I don't want love.

What's eating you up inside
What keeps you up at night
tell me
what is it that you keep hid
what's boiling underneath that lid
tell me
Is it everything on your phone
Is that excuse getting old
tell me
I am here
Don't know if I can help
But I am here
Are you still feeling all alone
Pacing all around your home
tell me
Are you preparing to die
Could a song save your life
tell me
We are Here
Don't know if we can help
But we are here

If I could claim my bff
I'd choose Styx
cuz he's the best
And I know that he has bad breath
But he doesn't eat shit
like Amos and Tess
But I love them and I miss them too
I'll see them up in heaven
where the sky is blue
I hear the floor squeak
It's sounds like Styx
But he ain't here, he's back at home
I miss Styx
I'm all alone

Capo 5 G, C, Am, C, G
You told me to listen to your favorite band,
You grabbed the tape off your dash and put them in.
I pretended to like it but you had your doubts
I pretended to like it and you called me out.

Ode to Andrew
Standard Tuning A, Bm, C#, D
A Bm C#
I knew two guys both named Andrew
Two out of five in my high school class
One of em died by flying through a windshield
One of em died cuz he took his own life
A
And I don’t know
D
If there is a heaven
A
Or if they let Andews in
Bm C# A
But I hope they do
I got two friends both named Andrew
They’re older than me and they work at my job
We became friends by having things in common
Like being annoyed by this little dude Josh

DAGBF#GDAG
When will you call my smarthphone
Yr always texting that other guy
Oh I hope your battery's not dead
before our conversation's started
Yr phone's always ringing
I'm always singing on the otherside
And I must be going crazy
I keep thinking about you daily
You never call my home phone
My little hell home where I lie
In my bed for 14 hours
Smoking pot and skipping showers
Maybe I have a dumb phone
It's always ringing in my mind
I wish that you would call me
I know that you could solve me.

Hey, [Redacted], do you wanna be lonely with me?
We don't have to fuck, you can hold me.
We'll sit on me bed. You can put your hands on my head.
We can talk if you want.
I know I won't say much.
Hey, [Redacted], you gonna keep me in the dark?
And break every bit of my heart?
What's inside our heads? It's like we've both gone brain dead.
I'll try to talk if I want.
I know you won't say much.

Pick up all your clothes on the weekend
No one's coming over
But it makes you feel better.
Cook yourself some food on the weekend.
You've got time for dishes
You can cook something delicious
Stay in bed all day on the weekend
And when the sun goes down
Just say it's too dark out
You can hang with me on the weekend
But I hope you change your plans
I hope you change your plans.

I wish you would hold my heavy half up, but you won't so instead I'm stuck being broken in two.
I don't think I'll ever go out again because I thought we were friends, but I'm broke and thinking of you.
Last night I prayed that I wouldn't wake up or that the Lord would come and fix me up, but he hasn't and I'm broken in two.
