If you're wanting more
I guess it's better if I leave you wanting more
Welcome one and all
You made it to the bitter end
The final curtain call before this show goes on the road again
And we won't drag it out, no
If you're wanting more
I guess it's better if I leave you wanting more
I'd rather that than you get sick of all my shit
My emotional impediment leaves you needing, wanting more
I'd rather leave you wanting
If you're wanting more
I guess it's better if I leave you wanting more
It's hard to say but maybe when all's said and done
You'll recognize I'm not the one to keep you from wanting more
I'd rather leave you wanting

Hell of a Time

Drowning, feels like I'm drowning in someone else's
Mind my own business but still feeling suspicious of the person that I am when I'm about To finish with
Her body's not my body and I don't want to lose myself inside of a lie
So I'd give it all up to make it all stop if it's feeling like a hell of a time
She said, I'm no economist but I've learned a thing or two
Sunk cost ain't a reason to keep investing in you
I said, Hey
Well, thanks
It's nice to know you're thinking clearly
I'm unclear on what you're feeling
Would it kill you to give a little love, a little pain
Maybe this'll piss you off for the last time
'Cause I don't wanna lose myself inside of a lie
So I'd give it all up to make it all stop if it's feeling like a hell of a time
She said, I'm no scuba diver but I feel out of my depth
The floor dropped out below me and all I need is to decompress
Said we'd burn that bridge when we got to it
(And we got to it)
I didn't keep my promise
But is anybody surprised
Said we'd burn that bridge when we got to it
(And we got to it)
I didn't keep my promise
Can't pass up a chance to lose myself inside a hell of a time.
We're pretty dangerous
This flame's contagious
Wake up, or don't, you better give this a rest
You would turn a lesser girl into an arsonist
I said we'd burn that bridge when we got to it
(And we got to it)
I didn't keep my promise
But is anybody surprised
Fucking no
Said we'd burn that bridge when we got to it
(And we got to it)
I didn't keep my promise
But is anybody surprised
(Fucking no)
Said we'd burn that bridge when we got to it
(And we got to it)
I didn't keep my promise
But is anybody surprised
Said we'd burn that bridge when we got to it
(And we got to it)
I didn't keep my promise
Can't pass up a chance to lose myself inside a hell of a time

I spent the day with a book, Harry Potter five, hiding in a nook
Avoiding my family friends, but I kind of wanted just to talk with them
Don't make a sound, I'm still writing this one out
I'd rather lose you
Keep that shit to yourself
To yourself
We're back to two-thousand four, me and Harry Potter are on the floor
My mom calls me down for food, and I feel more social after eating food
Don't make a sound, I'm still writing this one out
I'd rather lose you
Keep that shit to yourself
To myself
Start to think you're gonna get up but the next episode starts and you turn that shit up
Your good intentions are good for nothing
'Cause you only care about one thing at a time
You just don't know which way to go
You say, you say, you say
Your good intentions are good for nothing
'Cause you only care about one thing at a time
You just don't know which way to go
You say, you say
You say, La la la la laaa, la la la la la la la la la laaaa
La laaaa, la la la la laaa, la la la la la la-la la la laaaa
Don't make a sound, I'm still writing this one out
I'd rather lose you
Keep that shit to yourself
To yourself
Don't make a sound, I'm still writing this one out
I'd rather lose you
Keep that shit to yourself
Your good intentions are good for nothing
'Cause you only care about one thing at a time
You just don't know which way to go
You say, you say, you say
Your good intentions are good for nothing
'Cause you only care about one thing at a time
You just don't know which way to go
You say, you say, you say

Waterfall

When I found you
After you fell off that waterfall
I'll never forget what I saw
The colors of your hurt
The red of your blood and the whites of your eyes and the blue of your face, just
Dying in the dirt
But you didn't
You slowly came to life again
Couldn't remember where you'd been
But you leaned against my chest
Examined your hands, felt the crack in your chin, and you wanted to sleep, but
We couldn't let you rest
Whoa, I wanted to save you
But I couldn't let you go
No, I couldn't let you go
Oh, no
I never thought I'd have a friend die in my lap
But even less likely was that friend coming back
You got lucky, and not just 'cause we were there
All I did was roll you on your side, call for help, and send a prayer
'Cause had the CAT scan showed you leaking tons of blood into your brain
No, I wouldn't have felt responsible, but I might have gone insane
'Cause you got me thinking about death in a way I never have
It's so close at hand, it's just around the corner
Even when I'm dancing, especially when I'm drinking
Even when I'm falling down, ten feet down
Six feet under the waterfall
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh, I wanted to save you
But I couldn't let you go
No, I couldn't let you go
Oh, no
