I was nine and talking to God in the shower
I knew he was busy said sorry to bother
but why am I so bad at being pretty like my mother
I wanted to please her
guess I’ve always been a people pleaser pleaser
I tried to be quiet play nice
but I knew I wasn’t doing it right
I cried wiped my eyes and then smiled
because they didn’t know I was living a lie
I don’t know when it happened
but I don’t wanna be your cheer captain
I shouldn’t have called
I know he’s probably busy
and when he fucks me over
I’ll say that I’m sorry
and then I’ll take it off so he says that he wants me
cause I’m a people pleaser
and now he’s doing lines with the boys on a Monday
showed up at my house all strung out like a day late
watch his stupid band at the club
no one else came cause
I’m a people pleaser and I don’t wanna be her
I tried to be quiet play nice
but I knew I wasn’t doing it right
I cried wiped my eyes and then smiled
because they didn’t know I was living a lie
I don’t know when it happened
but I don’t wanna be your cheer captain
How did I let it happen
I don’t wanna be your cheer captain
I was so sad then
I don’t wanna be your cheer captain
wish that I knew than
that I don’t wanna be your cheer captain

Didn't Make It

I was calling out your name
we almost thought something would change
but you were smoking through the day
& we were kids we broke the chain
you say you won’t lie
I’ve only been waiting like a child
black car, hillside
it’s only the middle of the night
Always been the only thing that I want
sipping whiskey on your back porch
We almost made it but we got lost
no we don’t want to face it
but we didn’t make it
you’ve never been one to stick around
I’m hiding in the bathroom breaking down
we almost made it but we’re lost now
No we don’t wanna face it
but we didn’t make it
You were racing in the street
you never put your hands on me
and I was looking desperately
for something I would never see
You say you won’t lie
I’ve only been waiting like a child
black car tail lights
stuck in the middle of the night
Always been the only thing that I want
sipping whiskey on your back porch
We almost made it but we got lost
no we don’t want to face it
but we didn’t make it
you’ve never been one to stick around
I’m hiding in the bathroom breaking down
we almost made it but we’re lost now
No we don’t wanna face it
but we didn’t make it
Always been the only thing that I want
sipping whiskey on your back porch
We almost made it but we got lost
no we don’t want to face it
but we didn’t make it
you’ve never been one to stick around
I’m hiding in the bathroom breaking down
we almost made it but we’re lost now
No we don’t wanna face it
but we didn’t make it

It was a week before the winter
And the gang was all in town
You forgot but I remember
Everything about it now
Said you fell in love in school
With a girl straight from a dream
So you sat there on the playground
Took too much amphetamine
when you got down
I was speeding like a fool
Thinking I could save you
Like I’m the exception to the rule
I stood at the door of your place
Wondering how to get out of this headspace
I ranted to a stranger
At some upscale downtown bar
They didn’t have much to say
But they looked like movie star
But they didn’t know you
Hell I don’t know if I do
After six years of being
Stupid in love with you
and when you got down
I was speeding like a fool
Thinking I could save you
Like I’m the exception to the rule
I stood at the door of your place
Wondering how to get out of this headspace
So I drove until my body gave out
I was screaming out the window till no sound
was coming out
You and I we burned it to the ground

I don’t wanna come over
It’s the middle of the night
And you’re not sober
Maybe you’ll pretend
That I’m wrong for staying home
You’re sleeping with your friends
To not sleep alone
What ever happened to loving someone
Long enough to maybe hurt someone
What ever happened to a little risk of getting sick of it
Someone you maybe could have loved
You
You’re spending all your time
Hoping they all notice
You’re so casual
You’re so fine
And maybe you don’t get it
At night when it gets heavy
I could be there to hold your head up
Hold you steady
What ever happened to loving someone
Long enough to maybe hurt someone
What ever happened to a little risk of getting sick of it
Someone you maybe could have loved
I can’t forget I keep reliving October
I swear to god I could tell you wanted me to stay
Talked until I missed the train
You walked away
Can we forget about keeping shit so together
Forget about thinking it’s forever and nothing less
What would happen if we said what we’re feeling
What ever happened to loving someone
Long enough to maybe hurt someone
What ever happened to a little risk of getting sick of it
Someone you maybe could have loved
What ever happened to loving someone
Long enough to maybe hurt someone
What ever happened to a little risk of getting sick of it
Someone you maybe could have loved

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche.
