I'm sorry
If I hurt you then
Didn't wanna ghost you
So I didn't ghost you and
If there is a better way
I would like to know it
But it isn't ours to know
Peeling out peeling out peeling out peeling out
With you
Didn't look, almost took
By a car peeling tar on the avenue
And I wonder what could have been had it been
What you felt I was feeling, too
Nevertheless
I wasn't the best, and you could have done better
I'm selfish
Same way that I was before
Saw you self-investing
Messaged you directly and
You told me to go fuck myself
Or maybe not exactly
But you know what I mean
Feel it out feel it out feel it out feel it out
With you
In my car, under dark, under stars
Tell me just what you're going through
And I don't know if it's the app
Or the mask or the fact
That you're lonely, too
Rendered again
As a jpeg
But you are a human, too

I only look my lover in the eye
No one else
No one else
And only if I love her will I try
To show myself
Show myself
It doesn't matter if I'm feeling lonely
It doesn't matter if I'm fine
It doesn't matter if it's real or phony
It doesn't matter
I only look my lover in the eye
No one else
No one else
And only if I love her will I cry
Seek no help
Seek no help
I bet I look pretty foolish now
Now...
I mostly wanna spend my time alone
By myself
By myself
Turn off the outer world turn off my phone
No one else
No one else
But when I go out I am more than lonely
Confronting people I don't know
Compounding sadness that they will not know me
It's undefeated
I only look my lover in the eye
No one else
No one else
I bet I look pretty stupid now
Now
Frozen trying to bring myself around
It doesn't matter that I'm feeling lonely
It doesn't matter that I tried
It doesn't matter that they will not know me
It doesn't matter
I only look my lover in the eye
No one else
No one else
And only if I love her will I try
To show myself
Show myself
I bet I look pretty stupid now
Now
Frozen trying to bring myself around

Hayward on the night-shift
Hampton by Hilton
You were one of the good ones then
Those days
Better known as the hoe-days
Got-nothing-to-show days
Don't-wanna-be-alone days then
And no I don't have a lot to spend
But I have enough to drive
Hope we can do this again
I've had a lovely time
But that didn't happen
'Cause you never called back
And I never saw you
Again
Hine
I was just a body
Sex only a currency
Texts only a courtesy-send
And no I don't have a lot to say
But that doesn't mean I won't
Try and extrapolate
Type you into my phone
Heard you got a kid now
Sun up 'til sun down
Mother is a full-time
Gig

Will you run up the hill with me?
I come to you humbly
Won't ask you for anything
You can't give to me
I just want to be
Happy with you
Happy with you...
Aandi
Do you know what it means to me?
I been searching for something
Don't know if it's mine to seek
But you make me see
Just how I could be
Happy with you
Happy with you
Aandi...
Oh the water hard against the sand
Silver coins stay falling from your hands
Do you understand?
You understand?
That I'm lowly, still
And lonely, still
Sorry, still
You know...
Sea of love and longing that so paled
And so failed
Like all things
Just like all things do
I know
But if you call for me
Then I will
And I do
I do
I do...
Aandi
You couldn't stay mad at me
You don't owe me nothin'
But I need you around
So I'll fall asleep
And with some luck dream
That I'm with you
Happy with you...

I swiped right and you
Swiped right too and I
Said we should meet up that
Same afternoon if it's cool
I'm sure you're cool
But I'm a fool
To think that something predicated on lust
Wouldn't be what it was
Saying that I do when I don't wanna
Listening to you when you go on it's
Tryna keep it cool when it's been lost all along
Knowing what I knew from the beginning
It shoulda been through shoulda been ended
What I gotta do I shoulda done from the start
Call if off with you
Call if off with you
Call it off with
I'm so sorry it
Got this far but I
Really actually can't stand
Who you are and you're right
I know I lied
To the both of us
I could say it's an
Honest mistake but in
Truth I know of the
Bed I make for myself
Against my health
My better judge
It's really just a self-reflection of worth
What I think I deserve
Saying that I do when I don't wanna
Listening to you when you go off like
Tryna see it through when it's been lost all along
Knowing what I knew from the beginning
It shoulda been through shoulda been ended
What I gotta do I shoulda done from the start
Call if off with you
Call if off with you
Call it off with...
