OBVIOUSLY 02:41
You say it’s nothing out in the open 
I’ve seen your heart. It’s obviously broken, 
It’s obviously broken, It’s obviously broken.

 Difference in wages, it comes in stages 
So save your token, It’s obviously broken, 
It’s obviously broken, It’s obviously broken. 

I fucked it up, my sense of focus, my concentration, It’s obviously broken
It’s obviously broken, It’s obviously broken.

 No sense of time, to clear my mind
 Stuck in this system, I’m sick of hoping
 It’s obviously broken, It’s obviously broken 
It’s obviously broken.
 
I hope you notice, down by the ocean 
I hope you see me, I’m obviously broken
 I’m obviously broken, I’m obviously broken.

BAIL 03:42
Can you see me? I am running a red
 There’s a person behind me
 And she wants to put a bag on my head 

Before I go home

 And break my legs, ‘cos you’re the best
 Please take my name 
And place a fucking stake through my chest 

Oh god I know 

We never could be lovers without picturing each other dead. 

I let you chase my tail 
And all I’d ever want from that 
Is my Bail 

Can you see me? I am sick in my bed 
There’s a person inside me
 And he wants to put a hole in my head

 Before I know 

And tie me down, like way back when
 You watched me dance
 and stick a fucking nail in my hands 

Oh god I hope 

We never see the devil on the level of a single man 

You saw me try and fail 
And all I’d ever want from that 
Is my Bail 

And every time you get away from me 
I’ll be waiting at the edge 
And every time you slip away from me 
I’ll be bleeding half to death 
And every time you stay out late without me 
Baby I’m a mess. 

Doo do do doo do doo do doo do doo do doo do doo

Water me down 'til I know it's all in my head Water me down 'til there's not that much of me left Water me down 'til I guess I'm better off dead Water me down 'til I'm holding on to my breath And that's the last time I'll be waiting on you And that's the last time I'll be waiting on you Water me down 'til I'm wading out of my depth Water me down 'til I'm sailing over the edge Water me down and I'll rest my broken head Water me down, water me down And that's the last time I'll be waiting on you And that's the last time I'll be waiting on you He said enough is enough, she wasn't asking for much I wrote it down and sent it out across the sea of love I'm craving regular touch, he wanted reason to rust She is the season left wide open for my loaded gun I'd never leave her for lust, she is the queen of my trust He'd have to kill me with a venomously pointed pun If I was American I'd know, my limits and how to let it go I'd never survive it on my own The king of the island overthrown.

Lost At Sea 03:50
I never had it in my blood 
To break the law and break the trust
 Of lovers leaning out for lust
 And slowly phasing out of luck 

I never had up my sleeve 
To clean my teeth with everything 
You left beneath the sink 
There’s hardly any room for me to think

 You take the love right out of me 
You’ll say sorry but I won’t be 
And singin’ La Da Da Dee Da Da Da Dee
 And you take the love right out of me 

I never had it in my heart 
To play the part 
You left that mark 
I was too blind to see 
I guess forever now I will be lost at sea 

I can tell that you’re tryna get yourself back 
Put it in your backpack before you have a relapse 
I know you’re kinda thinkin’ that it played out wrong 
Don’t you know it’s gone
 And you can still be happy if you want!

 (Oh Fuck) You take the love right out of me 
You’ll say sorry but I won’t be 
And singin’ La Da Da Dee Da Da Da Dee
 And you take the love right out of me

Fighting For 03:27
If I feel like times is hard and getting harder
 Then what am I fighting for? 
If I think that I’m somebody left to hoping
 Then what am I trying for? 
If I’m laying at the bottom of the ocean 
Then what am I lying for?
 And If I’m trying to be something like a martyr 
Then what am I dying for?

 They’re gonna let your body burn 
Hoping your heart and soul return
 Yeah they’re gonna let your body burn
 Cos’ you hit the point of no return 

If I feel like I’m so fucking overrated 
Then what am I fighting for? 
And if I’m trying to be perfectly complacent
 Then what am I trying for? 
If I’m laying at the bottom of the ocean then
 What am I lying for?
 And if I’m dead before the harbour even opens 
Then what am I dying for

 They’re gonna let your body burn
 Hoping your heart and soul return
 Yeah they’re gonna let your body burn
 Cos’ you hit the point of no return

 And all those liars
 They’re better when burned than left to drown
 Their grips get tighter 
As we get further from the ground
 The avid deniers
 Yeah they’re gonna let it all fall down 
They’re throwing spiders
 We’re throwing our blessings to the crowd

Rest My Head 04:20
God bless the murder scene, she came from under me I'll never leave my bed, i'll never leave my bed Gotta sing the rosary, she fell in love with me I'll never rest my head, i'll never rest my head Locked up eternally, and it's really hurting me It feels like endless dread, it feels like endless dread Empty infirmary, no one to blame but me I'll never leave my bed, I'll never rest my head That doesn't tear me up, 'cos I love you still I fought with flowers burning upon the hill. Never got to say goodbye, but he was a friend of mine I feel it in my chest, I feel it in my chest I didn't make it back in time, no justice overnight We live with no regrets, I'll never rest my head. That doesn't tear me up, 'cos I love you still I fought with flowers burning upon the hill That doesn't tear me up, 'cos I love you still I fought with flowers burning upon the hill.

alibis. 03:17
I represent myself in court because I know I lied I am the reason you'll be leaving here a token bride So count your dollars and come kiss me at the county line Forget your feelings I believe that you will say it right There is a lonely person waiting on the other side I found him naked on the floor of all my alibis. Aahh You take a stab and then dramatically you draw the line Between the man you know and someone less desensitised To having reasons they believe they're still in love with you These are the feelings left behind from something overdue Like I needed a reason to let it out. A broken chest is handled best from somewhere out of view A broken promise is the light upon the avenue Of people waiting on their pension paid in ones and twos They see no reason to be stealing from the likes of you Aahh Like I needed a reason to let it out. We speak the language of the lucid and romantic few Whose view on everything's obscured and left to convelute As lovers left to die invisible to naked eyes And as we're yearning we are learning to be satisfied.
