Sweetest blue screen look at you
Broken TV what to do
Metal ballerina shine
Bluest eyes a thousand times
Race you to the parking lot
Count to ten and make it stop
Metal ballerina shine
Shoelace untied at the finish line
Kiss your forehead
Hands in your hair
Vacant stares at god knows where
Metal ballerina shine
Grilling on the Fourth of July
Metal ballerina shine
Nothing hurts the hundredth time
Metal ballerina shine
Cut your hand
Blood pours like wine

Superstar, they're in love with you
You are shining at my feet
Touch the ground you were walking on
Brought me to my knees
Got the hots, got it going on
Feel it on my tongue
Eyes lock
I'm already gone
The strobe lights are blinding
But you're all I see
It's you and me, baby
It's gonna be you and me
The strobe lights are blinding
But you're all I see
It's you and me, baby
It's gonna be you and me
Superstar, I listened to your song
Reminded me of the time
You looked at me once
And I looked back three times
I think I love you
I know that I don't, I know that I can't
Eyes lock
I'm already gone
The strobe lights are blinding
But you're all I see
It's you and me, baby
It's gonna be you and me
The strobe lights are blinding
But you're all I see
It's you and me, baby
It's gonna be you and me
You and me
It's gonna be you and me
You and me
You and me
The strobe lights are blinding
But you're all I see
It's you and me, baby
It's gonna be you and me
The strobe lights are blinding
But you're all I see
It's you and me, baby
It's gonna be you and me
You and me
It's gonna be you and me

I was getting sick of flatland blues
Getting tired of always seeing you with someone new
You never liked my guys and so be it
Always thinking we were a better fit
Now you're running off to corny island
With the eyes of a lifetime and nerve to find him
Camping out west with a pack of beer
Wishing somebody else was here
I was getting sick of flatland food
Missed you taking me out and changing the mood
Sit in pink and talking for hours
Getting all drenched in a pretty shower
Nobody else is gonna say what I do
No one's gonna stop you from being you
And moving away where I can't see you
Knowing our stars are pure and true
I was getting sick of never being with you
Time makes it better but yes it's true
I don't know if I'll ever let go
Of what ifs and double rainbows
Nothing's gonna change the course laid out
I want the best for you and the biggest trout
And maybe I won't get over you
Maybe I don't really ever want to

Carrie, I'm getting sick of it
You cutting at my teeth
Carrie, I'm getting sick of it
You dragging your feet
Carrie, are you gonna jump in
Cause without you I'd drown
It's like having you around
I've been reading books like a little kid
Trying to understand what it is you did and
Every time I see someone drive your car
I die a little inside
On the Fourth of July
Carrie, I can't stand it
You poking holes at my face
Prom queen nighttime knockoff
You would kill for second place
From the 31st floor
Have you heard it before
You could kill me with your smile
Drag my body down the Nile
I've been reading books like a little kid
Trying to understand what it is you did and
Every time I see someone drive your car
I die a little inside
On the Fourth of July
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch
On your front porch

Summer Dream Sequence

Trying on my newest dress
And you sitting on my bed
I play it out in my head
Til' I remember what you said
It's my summer dream sequence
You and me
We're sitting out walking on the beach
And I know that it's not meant to be
But I'll try
For you
We're just normal people
You and me
In a choir of dusty sprouts
Your baseball team is gonna lose
Before you figure it all out
Looking at cars
Wondering where you are
I swear I would've figured it out by now, Thom
I don't know where to go
You're all that I know
You and me in my summer dream sequence
We're on the beach and you're listening to me say
Something that doesn't matter at all you keep
Laughing until it turns to fall and
For you to keep me at arm's distance length
You're killing me slowly but I'll take it any day
Summer dream sequence you and me
We're sitting all cozy on the beach
I'm sorry
I keep waiting for you to say something so I don't have to say it
So if you could just say it already
I'll go home and turn on the kettle
Make myself a cup of tea
And try to forget everything
I'm sorry I'm just waiting for you to say something so I don't have to say it
I'm sorry I'm just waiting for you to say something so I don't have to say it
I really just didn't want to say anything

In your favorite shirt
My portugal lining
Falling on 17
Shoulder out
Big fish
Submarine you walk back with one hand
And I spent some time with your mom in Ohio
Picking out leaves
Cutting into family extremes
Love on the line
Love on the line
Love on the line
You're all wired up baby
Some soft extreme
Softer than you've ever seemed
Headless encounter
I stopped in my tracks on the way back
And you call twice you said
Sfl, mbv, two seconds
Give me one back
Give me one back
Give me love back
Love me back
Give me love back

You, you spun me around
In my velvet pink and crown
As we danced across the floor
And you wanted something more
So I, I swallowed you whole
And I, I dropped you home
And I, I called you mine
And I, and I
No one's gonna hurt you like I did
No one's gonna feel the sin
No one's gonna call you crying at night like I did
No one's gonna let you down
No one's gonna be around
I won't be around
And you kicked off my inched shoes
As I wanted to listen to Blue
So you pulled out all the stops
As we danced until it dropped
In the coldish midnight breeze
I'll find something evergreen
To love instead of your smile
That keeps me warm
No one's gonna hurt you like I did
No one's gonna feel the sin
No one's gonna call you crying at night like I did
No one's gonna let you down
No one's gonna be around
I won't be around
I needed you to spin me around
And I look away and you, you aren't around
