Didn't I 03:34
lyrics

Didn’t I tell you about falling love? Didn’t I tell you about falling love? Baby, didn’t I tell you about falling love? Didn’t I tell you about falling love? Giving up trust? Now, didn’t I tell you about falling love? When you’re feeling this lonely better get tough till it lets up I don’t catch feelings, I don’t show up We don’t have memories I can outrun Didn’t I tell you about falling in love? I know you want to give it time and space Ten seconds just to hit rewind on fate No looking back so cut the double take Don’t watch me while I’m stepping out of frame Heaven knows I’ve been barely scraping by Why am I checking for you? If you don’t mind, just leave me with “goodbye” I’m not breaking for ya I can’t keep falling for emotion I don’t need anything but focus Didn’t I tell you about falling love? Didn’t I tell you about falling love? Baby, didn’t I tell you about falling love? Didn’t I tell you about falling love? Giving up trust? Now, didn’t I tell you about falling love? When you’re feeling this lonely better get tough till it lets up I don’t catch feelings, I don’t show up We don’t have memories I can outrun Didn’t I tell you about falling in love? Can’t relate by the second date No dramatics, bringing flowers by the lake Maybe it’s not your vibe (cool...) Keeping me up all night Catch me on demon time Leave me on “read?” That’s fine. It was cool, chasing after you Reminiscing, then you ghost and act a fool Guess it ain’t meant to be (be) Spending that time on me (me) Maybe I’ll keep it clean (clean) Or, maybe I’ll make a scene Heaven knows I’ve been barely scraping by Why am I checking for you? If you don’t mind, just leave me with “goodbye” I’m not breaking for ya I can’t keep falling for emotion I don’t need anything but focus Didn’t I tell you about falling love? Didn’t I tell you about falling love? Baby, didn’t I tell you about falling love? Didn’t I tell you about falling love? Giving up trust? Now, didn’t I tell you about falling love? When you’re feeling this lonely better get tough till it lets up I don’t catch feelings, I don’t show up We don’t have memories I can outrun Didn’t I tell you about falling in love?

By Summer 03:10

Now, I like fire but it’s burning through the place And I admire how you carry it with grace And, oh, how I try I try to tell you you’re the one As temperatures rise in the shadows of the sun But if it’s cool by summer Then I’ll be crying till the end of time Don’t lose the mood by summer Cause I’ll be dying, dying, dying, dying Can we talk about labels, babe? And if you’re seeing anyone In the parking lot on display, Days turn to midnights in the park, living off the spark But if it’s cool by summer Then I’ll be crying till the end of time Don’t lose the mood by summer Then I’ll be dying, dying, dying, dying Dying, dying, dying, dying You know what they say, “All of the good times-- good times may fade” Let’s put them to shame and live for the wild ride, stay high, unchained If it’s cool by summer Then I’ll be crying till the end of time Don’t lose the mood by summer Cause I’ll be dying, dying, dying, dying I’m not a fool in the typical way I’m not a smooth guy (just play it cool if it’s true now) Just play it cool, baby, mean what you say Don’t gotta buy time No lies, no I’m not a fool in the typical way I’m not a smooth guy (just play it cool if it’s true now) Just play it cool, baby, mean what you say Don’t gotta bide time I’m not a smooth guy (just play it cool if it’s true now) I’m not a smooth guy

Family Curse 03:32

Now wait a minute for it… for it... I’ve been putting in work Trying to put this in words Give you what you deserve, baby I know you say you don’t mind Say, “without you I’m fine” Acting like we ain’t both crazy You could say “I’m disturbed” I could say I’ve heard worse Drag your good name through the dirt But I don’t want to talk tough Don’t know how to show love Blame it on my family curse Won’t you blame it on my Won’t you blame it on my Won’t you blame it on my Won’t you blame it on my family curse I wanna save time, hop on the same vibe Can we exchange light? Live for the same shine? I gotta know, feeling this cold, that it ain’t alright I gotta prove, this ain’t the move, I know that it’s all mine You’ve been putting in work Trying live by these words Trying to show me what you deserve,baby And I don’t want to talk tough Don’t know how to show love Blame it on family curse Won’t you blame it on my (I’m still cold) Won’t you blame it on my (still cold) Won’t you blame it on my (I’m still cold) Won’t you blame it on my family curse Won’t you blame it on my (I’m still cold) Won’t you blame it on my (still cold) Won’t you blame it on my (I’m still cold) Won’t you blame it on my family curse I’ve tried everything can I’ll never be your type of man Break me down just to unlearn a legacy of hurtful words I won’t ask you to forgive or to excuse the way I’ve been Leave me with my just desserts Spare yourself, my family curse Won’t you blame it on my (I’m still cold) Won’t you blame it on my (still cold) Won’t you blame it on my (I’m still cold) Won’t you blame it on my family curse Won’t you blame it on my (I’m still cold) Won’t you blame it on my (still cold) Won’t you blame it on my (I’m still cold) Won’t you blame it on my family curse Now wait a minute for it… for it...

Petty 03:56

I’m just too petty I’m just too (2x) Daylight comes, but do you feel right? Can you call my phone? Oh no… Keep the game tight And you don’t got no business hanging on my mind after so long Cause I ain’t ready to change my plans While you sit pretty and take the upper hand I know you feel me, so understand I’m too unsteady I’m just too petty No more second chance, no more breaking bread We can’t make amends, we ain’t even friends (I’m just too petty) We can’t lay in bed, you can’t make me laugh Ain’t no turning back, can you handle that? (I’m just too) Now all I’ve known is to hold back Once you’re comfortable, you better snap that kodak (Yeah) Cause you don’t got no business hanging on my mind after so long My, my--- my, my, what’d you do that for? Cause I ain’t ready to change my plans While you sit pretty and take the upper hand I know you feel me, so understand I’m too unsteady I’m just too petty Petty. No more second chance, no more breaking bread We can’t make amends, we ain’t even friends (I’m just too petty) We can’t lay in bed, you can’t make me laugh Ain’t no turning back, can you handle that? (I’m just too) I’ll play shy while I’m trying to find pleasures everlasting (pleasures everlasting) Fly by night, hiding all my pride and everything about me (everything about me) One last time, I know I’ll never find pleasures everlasting No more second chance, no more breaking bread We can’t make amends, we ain’t even friends (I’m just too petty) We can’t lay in bed, you can’t make me laugh Ain’t no turning back, can you handle that? All I wanna do is make you sure (too too petty) I’m not the dude that can give you more, no (I’m just too) If it’s true, what you’re asking for (I’m just too petty) I can’t pull through, just being rude I’m just too… (petty)

Tiptoein' 03:21

From the Earth to the grave to the still of the night I loved you, wrong or right And it hurts all the same and it feels like a lie to settle, compromise I know I’m holding back Nothing like what we had planned But I need my peace in tact, life is sweet we both know that Gone in a day, any shame that we claimed Let it float away And I wanna know if you feel what I say I’m trying to make you stay Yes, I’m still holding back “Human Nature” told you that I’m no good at making plans All my secrets kill romance I’m tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoein’ But we roll, we roll, we roll, we roll, we rollin’ Who’re we fooling anyway? What’s the point? Make a case to show me grace I could tell you everything, make it plain Leave you drained, it’s on your face So much more than what we bargained My checkered past to pardon I get explosive when you keep me honest And I can’t evade it, all the truths that you’re entertaining Yes, I’m still holding back “Human Nature” told you that I’m no good at making plans All my secrets kill romance I’m tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoein’ But we roll, we roll, we roll, we roll, we rollin’ Tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoein’ But we roll, we roll, we roll, we roll, we rollin’ Tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoein’ But we roll, we roll, we roll, we roll, we rollin’ (Repeat through outro)

Over + Over 03:52

Hands in the dark, we play pretend No light, no spark at 2am You keep me tongue tied while we come undone Caught up in what we’ve become Running through my veins are the promises we made Falling into pain is the only game we play Over and over, and over again It goes over and over, and over again It goes over and over, and over again, over again Over and over, and over again Over again Let’s fake a smile, let’s wait a while Don’t lose your head Breathe out, breathe in, keeping suffering from words unsaid Maybe I’m out my mind, maybe it’s right this time Do we benefit? But we’ll never know how to control this blood boiling red Running through your veins are the promises we made Falling into pain is the only game we play Over and over, and over again It goes over and over, and over again It goes over and over, and over again, over again Over and over, and over again Over again Back and forth on your mile-high-horse Round and round we go Merrily we roll underwater through snow And I would die a hundred times trying to find the fire in your bones Yeah, I want the smoke Tie me to the rope Won’t you tie me to the rope Over and over, and over again It goes over and over, and over again It goes over and over, and over again, over again Over and over, and over again It goes over and over, and over again It goes over and over, and over again It goes over and over, and over again, over again Over and over, and over again Over again

Rooftops 04:13
lyrics

Is it home or is it heartbreak? Or a hall of broken dreams? Fairytale or an illusion? To create my place of peace At the bottom of the bottle Or the barrel of a gun There’s a lot of second guessing As we move around the sun I don’t need a lesson I don’t want a war Answers to my questions Like, “Could I give you more?” And do you think I’m shallow? ‘Cause I like pretty things If not for simple pleasures Would we fight for what they bring? I just made my bed of pure emotion Kissed my fears goodnight (yeah, yeah, yeah) Tried to clear my head with sleeping potions On the rooftops Of my mind Pen to paper, make some magic Through the fire, that’s my ashes Trying to leave the words behind and shape a legacy Push the pain aside that lives inside of me And I’ll be spirited away from this place and I’ll never feel afraid Tried to stay above the fray, it’s a shame that I couldn’t feel the grace I’m the one to blame, it’s okay, you’ll feel better in a day Now bend your knees to pray, to feel safe from the hurt that I’ve conveyed And I don’t wanna leave ya Just so many things, that I’m trying to tell ya It’s a shame to be in this state of disarray Led astray, fully underneath the weight of my own self hate from this game that I’m dying to escape I just made my bed of pure emotion Kissed my fears goodnight (goodnight, goodnight) Tried to clear my head with sleeping potions On the rooftop Of my mind I’m still trying to wade in pools of teardrops that we make on our pillows in the dark And so quickly fade into the depths of my charade So let me give my last remarks Remarks Remarks I just made my bed of pure emotion Kissed my fears goodnight (Won’t you kiss my fears goodnight? When you try to clear my head) Tried to clear my head with sleeping potions (My head) On the rooftops On the roof, the rooftops I just made my bed of pure emotion Kissed my fears goodnight (goodnight, goodnight) Tried to clear my head with sleeping potions (I tried to clear my head) On the rooftops Of my mind For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory Forever
