Just take off you can blame it on me I know what it's like to get thrown away It looks like it don't hurt but it's just that i don't care because i tore out my heart just to make it out alive Just to make it Just to make it out alive We both know that I know and if we're unhappy why do we even pretend You're broken heart is just a bruised ego and if you can't see it what the f*** do i know? Just to make it Just to make it out alive

Creeper 02:48
i'm thinking about taking drastic action i'm thinking about your impolite tone and ten little bruises that look so familiar draped across your neck for dramatic element i'm slippin' and slinkin' i got blue skin hands of a dragon i'm picking off your kids with ten little bruises in rapid expansion you could get to know 'em over silent mouthed screams i'm the Creeper i like to creep i like the taste the taste of teens i'm the Creeper i'm a creep

Summerlong 02:48
We were friends all summer long We played our games, we had our laughs We had our code nobody knew We had our looks nobody knew Oh-oh (screamin solo that kind of reminds you of 'somewhere over the rainbow') (cool staccato breakdown) Now it goes "we're not friends" Every summer has to have an end We don't talk, everybody knows We don't have to say it because everybody knows Every awkward summer ends (slow melancholy outtro)

you don't love me like i love you the streets of Russia turned your lips to blue i know in my heart you're my own true love but could i confess it to the barrel of a gun? two lovers, two sighs, black hair, black eyes two guns, two sides, soviet sci fi i can't love you like you love me there's a cold cold terror growing in Sochi the scanners follow with their glassy eyes i want to feel but i don't want to die two lovers, two sighs, black hair, black eyes two guns, two sides, soviet sci fi soviet sci fi
