Stone Cold Sally
Come from Cali
I've never felt a way like this before
Road trip rally
Rand McNally
Across the Rocky Mountains to the shore
I'm gonna meet her at a club in Santa Monica down at the beach
Am I gonna get a word or is she going to remain out of reach
All of her TikTok followers said that she would be here tonight
So I just gotta be there to make a move when the timing is right
I've been thinking in my head about the way I'm gonna say hello
I even practiced in a mirror til I feel like I'm ready to go
I'm gonna dress up in a shirt like the people that I see in my phone
And nobody's ever gonna believe that I came here alone

BARNACLES

You're bored senseless
On a rock covered in barnacles
I could keep you entertained
I saw that you read what I said
Your face is hovering by the text
Smiling but never typing
Am I really more boring than barnacles?
Am I *really* more boring than barnacles?
You're taking off the night shift
And I've got a rental car
Making a plan is all that remains
I choose to believe that it's true
That my messages somehow didn't get through
A missed connection's more romantic anyway
Am I really more boring than barnacles?
Am I *really* more boring than barnacles???
My therapist would tell me I shouldn't give these thoughts the time of day
But barnacles have got me beat, I can't spin this any other way
And I'm leaving in the morning, I should just go to sleep, I'll be okay
But barnacles have got me beat, I can't spin this any other way
You're faded like a summer tan, and I'm several thousand miles away
And things are going good right now, I just try to take it day by day
But it's cold in my apartment, and my loneliness comes out to play
And August rushes back to me and I'm terrified it's here to stay
My therapist would tell me I shouldn't give these thoughts the time of day
But barnacles have got me beat, I can't spin this any other way
In the morning you'll be gone again, I should go to sleep, I'll be okay
But barnacles have got me beat, I can't spin this any other way

SINGING IN THE SHOWER

Singing in the shower
Coming up with lines
The water's got me thinking
Of ways to make them rhyme
Singing in the shower
I am naked now
Got this inspiration
But I don't know how
'Cause in the steam, it comes so easily
I wish you all could follow along
If this comes to me so easily
Maybe I've got a decent song
Singing in the shower
Don't want to get out
I would still be naked
And also full of doubt
Far too many people
Too much work to do
Leave me in the water
'Til I become a prune
But in the steam, it comes so easily
I wish you all could follow along
If this comes to me so easily
Maybe I've got a decent song
I wish the world had a curtain I could pull
To shut out all the tension
I wanna scream at a storm in late July
And kill my apprehension
Wash away, wash away, wash away...
'Cause in the steam, it comes so easily
I wish you all could follow along
If this comes to me so easily
Maybe I've got a decent song

You're inescapable
You're in my head and in my phone
And when I think that I'm alone
You're tapping on my shoulder
I feel like Prometheus
And you're the rock to which I'm bound
And there's a million birds around
They're pecking on my liver
I thought that I could love you
But nothing's left of me to love you
I lost track of time
Cause time is meaningless when
You spend it all in the same place
Not even a bathroom break
And I don't know what's mine
Cause we share everything and
You share like you're five years old
Why did I ever think
You were the end of all my dreams
I guess I didn't hear the screams
Of other souls you'd captured
And now I'm past the brink of madness
Chained to the saint of sadness
Cause there's a masochistic part of me
That's still enraptured
And I know this isn't healthy
But I'm afraid to make you leave me
Cause without you I'd be empty
And it's safer to be full
And I've forgotten how to smile
Except for when I make you smile
I think I'll be here for a while
And dig myself a deeper hole
