OCEAN HONEY 01:57
I breathe with air so heavy and I keep my hands from trembling for you. I taste honey In the ocean blue It was probably you.
2.
I don't want to taste your summer cum and you don't want to taste mine I don't think I've ever loved anyone but she never let me call her mine you never let me call you mine I remember details of your living room You remember skinny sea dippin' I don't give a fuck about anyone but she never let me call her mine you never let me call you mine Give me a reason Take me to rehab I lost my ticket and my head at the bottom of hell You're the best and worst I've ever had I can peel an orange in one whole piece I can leave a fight in two You've never been in love with you so you don't know what I'm going through. You don't know what I'm going through Give me a reason Take me to rehab I lost my ticket and my head at the bottom of hell You're the best and worst I've ever had

I call you Little Fourth of July A broken cloudy day still lights up the sky I bled out of the tiger's mouth When I was 17, when I was 17 I love you like a wasp loves honey Sell my soul for some of that Young Money I love you like an upstate winter Makes my word go from sweet to bitter I've seen the world spin I've seen the suburban sin I wrote about growing pains through a Sparkling youth When I was 17, when I was 17. I love you like a wasp loves honey Sell my soul for some of that Young Money I love you like an upstate winter Makes my word go from sweet to bitter

KANYAKUMARI 03:09
I'll meet you for the first time again Three oceans collide like old friends Elephant memories in your skin Sell a bottle of beer and keep it within Now I'm off to see if you were the last hope for me You were lost in Kanyakumari while i was stuck in New York City Oh, you can write me from a roof of a hospital Indian sun's beating down on ya Winter takes the life out of me while you were lost in Kanyakumari Thought I'd write home for the last time again Five o'clock shadow and a new girlfriend What about you, what are you up to now? The roots of my skin, they're still there and loud I could have done better with you I could have done better, oh I could have done better with you Now I'm off to see if you were the last hope for me You were lost in Kanyakumari while i was stuck in New York City Oh, you can write me from a roof of a hospital Indian sun's beating down on ya Winter takes the life out of me while you were lost in Kanyakumari
5.
I fell for you and you know it A crooked tooth and a light denim jacket You inherited from your mother's father From my head to my toes, don't wanna live without her Come home oh I'm still so drunk Fall asleep with all the lights on Pull her in, hold on, don't draw back I don't care if she makes my lungs black Once the wound heals, then you feel the pain Of a love life going down the drain Even during a blood moon, the sun will shine She's an artist but she needs more time Come home oh I'm still so drunk Fall asleep with all the lights on Pull her in, hold on, don't draw back I don't care if she makes my lungs black
6.
I wrote a book about you in my phone I used my words and not my tongue Cuz it gets sharp and you know best, and you know best I'm not angry, oh I swear, I'm just upset I love the woes she left me They remind me I'm not always supposed to be happy I love the way she left me It reminds me I'm not always supposed to be happy I love the woes she left me They remind me I'm not always supposed to be happy I love the way she left me It reminds me I held your hand up to my chest Teary-eyed I said "I'm scared to death" Of my body, of my soul, of where I'm going, what do I know? The sand in my bed oh it stays for days and word of my mother I lost my way and I'm on my own I love the woes she left me They remind me I'm not always supposed to be happy I love the way she left me It reminds me I'm not always supposed to be happy I love the woes she left me They remind me I'm not always supposed to be happy I love the way she left me It reminds me

TWO FLAGS 03:48
I'm just looking for a bed for a dreamer I'm just the sins left in a savior I'm just a zephyr floating to the west I'm just a heartless bastard like the rest I'll pack my bags, oh yeah I'll cut my hair, oh yeah I'll say goodbye to your girl Before I set fire to the world I'll cut my hair, oh mom, I swear I'll pack my bags with my two flags Maybe I'm looking for warmth in a cold world Maybe I'm looking for a love that will erase her I'm just holding on to the road under my feet In the hopes I find something, something close to me I'll pack my bags, oh yeah I'll cut my hair, oh yeah I'll say goodbye to your girl Before I set fire to the world
8.
Maybe in Santa Monica, I'd be happy to be dead Make sure you tell my mama I tried my best Maybe in Culver City, I'd be happier there but probably not probably not I am the ghost in your photograph I am the UFO, spacecraft It's Halloween in Hollywood Halloween in Hollywood We play just stand there in front of the California waves Drowning don't sound to good now but man, just you wait Maybe in the pacific, I could finally feel fantastic Maybe in Los Feliz, I could regain some feeling but probably not probably not I am the ghost in your photograph I am the UFO, spacecraft It's Halloween in Hollywood Halloween in Hollywood

LEAF SURFER 02:42
Noticed how you roll em baby You must not be from around here Practice driving in your car In funeral home parking lots Wanna be a leaf surfer baby Can you teach me how? Wanna be an internet surfer Can you teach me how? Wanna be a leaf surfer baby Can you teach me how? Wanna be an internet surfer Can you teach me how? In your backyard practicing karate In your front seat ain't no Bugatti Do they have the same swears on the West coast? Do they have the same swears in Europe? Wanna be a leaf surfer baby Can you teach me how? Wanna be an internet surfer Can you teach me how? Wanna be a leaf surfer baby Can you teach me how? Wanna be an internet surfer Can you teach me how? Wanna be a little league slugger Can you teach my how? Wanna be Petite League MVP Can you teach me how?

I just wanna be your internet surfer boyfriend I just wanna be your Hawaiian Vampire friend It's alright if you say no, I didn't call dibs, I didn't know It's alright if you say no, I didn't call dibs, I didn't know I wish I could have misspelled words in the right way for you I wish I had enjoyed the songs that I found so unpleasant No we weren't all born in Brooklyn, I was raised another way No we weren't all born in Brooklyn and I don't care about LA.
