What if I feel stupid for falling in love with you?
What if I regret it and you leave me with a gaping wound?
What if our first picture feels like salt within the mixture
Blood and fixtures of our muscles torn apart
What if when it ends we are still friends and it takes
All that's in my power not to break your heart
What if I never forget a night we spend in your twin bed
And all I think of in New York is you
What if I'm not meant for this and how I felt the night we kissed
The first time was just me trying to be cool (Cool)
What if I
Run away
What if I run away too soon?
What if we don't get too far and I leave it in ruins cause
These days my body's struggling to cope
What if I pour it all down the drain, it's not the same
As how it was when I was young and I had hope
What if seeing half my friends get broken and get up again
Has only taught me that I should be scared
What if all the damage meant that I could never manage
Recognizing all the things that mean you care
What if I
Run away (I don't wanna)
What if I run away too soon?
Maybe it'll all work out and you're the one I sing about
For years to come and none of it will hurt
Maybe in a couple years we will have worked through all our fears
And we can sit in silence like we were
Cause lover you're my favourite and I'd
Love it if we made it and I
Think that we could do it if we tried
Cause I think you were meant for me and I was meant for you, you see
So maybe we could stand the test of time
But what if I
Run away
What if I run away too soon?
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna run away)
Oh, what if I
Run away
What if I run away too soon?
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna run away)
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna run away)
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna see you break)
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna run away)
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna run away)

You could've left me on the street where I was standing
You could've followed me home into the dark
Broken down the door while I was lying on the floor
And ripped my precious body apart
A killer couldn't understand the madness
A killer couldn't even comprehend
The ways I want to bite your fucking head off
I get too close to even play pretend
The knife behind my back is plastic
No I couldn't even hurt a fly
So who am I?
Real shame is blood and guts and echoes
Real shame is hiding from your friends
And I just don't know where to put myself
If I can't be there in your hands
I would try anything to stop it
I'll try and teach myself to fight
I don't go down that easily
I'd look him dead in the eyes
But he knows the knife behind my back is plastic
Believe me I know how to use it
I would do anything to feel it
Oh you know you could make me do it
So who am I?

Catherine
None of us even like nicotine
But you bark and you bite like you've seen it all
I'm just happy to know someone's middle name
I'm happy to stand back and watch it all
I watched you grow up in a year or two
All your second guesses relayed to me
And I want to give you whatever you need
She's walking on water to you
She could be a good mother to you
And it always comes circling back to you, babe
Catherine
There's humour in secrets and whirlwinds
And as the tornado comes touching down
In a city where I've never been
I watch as you count every blessing
Baby it's gonna be okay
I'll never stop loving you
And I'm walking on water to you
I just want to see what you can do
With the words in your mouth like a wound
Oooh
Oooh
Mmm
Catherine
You see the beauty in everything
And you hear me vulnerable crying
You hold my hand through all the wreckage
The world that you wrote left me breathless
Will you help me weather this storm?
My ship's leaving harbour like yours
I want to believe for the first time
You're a faraway home to me
And I'm walking on water to you
I'm broken and aching and blue
But I know you'd kiss every bruise
Sometimes you feel miserable too
Sometimes you feel miserable too

Everything Changes

Wax-winged and white-robed
Singing I think I could love
Walking in a cloud of smoke
I was all caffeine and Lexapro
Burnt out and free to leave
Man I wish I could believe
I'd get my license, drive away
Flying down the 93
Mm
Mm
Midnight, I'm all alone
Seventeen on my bedroom floor
Sitting in a wedding dress
All the best for you and yours
Used to think someday we'd kiss
Well oh well I'd be remiss
If I ever told you to your face
Oh why oh why doesn't anything
Ever feel like it's changing?
I find I've been forgetting things
About myself I once knew all the same
New love, talk me through
I don't feel like missing you
Thought that I would feel brand new
But it all goes back to messy rooms
I love your smile when you smile at me
Fuck I wish I could believe
Learner driver, seventeen
The middle of an empty street
When I saw the supermoon
I turned away to look at you
Anxious and it's nothing new
Something borrowed, always blue
My friend and I see the same stars
Twenty-one hours apart
Thought it would get easier to love but it's so fucking hard
Lost again, went off my meds
Imagining the consequence
It's just the way you've always been to me
Oh why oh why doesn't anything
Ever feel like I'm growing now?
I just want to make peace with it
I'm not sure if I know how
My baby's dead and school is done
I don't feel like having fun
Laying here for days on end
Work and sleep and cry again
Stay afloat for nine more years
Till it's cool to disappear
All my friends and ghosts all here
Hold my hand and tell me something
I've known grief and I've known love
It's nothing like you thought it was
And I know that my head's fucked up
But you swear that you like me cause
You know everything changes but I hope it all stays the same
You know everything changes but it's all gonna stay the same
You know everything changes but you want it to stay the same
You know everything changes but you want it to stay the same
You know everything changes but you want it to stay the same
You know everything changes but it's all gonna stay the same
