Disco 03:05
Hard day Of pushing papers We’re off the grid but we steal the energy We play the game We play the numbers We play for anyone who’ll have us on their team Alright, you got a tattoo of your boyfriend Okay, you never see him anymore, well Alright okay I get the picture We get a minute in the middle of the floor We’ve done this all before You Got to know This is not really love It’s disco baby Ooh The afterglow But this is not really love It’s disco baby Met you At the Front Page Is that Still a place you go? And what is it You do for money? I think you’re hoping that I let the whole thing go Okay, you’ve been awake for 20 hours But so has everybody in the room oh Alright okay Don’t even answer Let’s just get busy getting down to what we know Put on the radio You Got to know This is not really love It’s disco baby Ooh The afterglow But this is not really love It’s disco baby Disco, baby that’s all right by me Good eyebrows Fresh haircut Skincare routine on Friday night Hydrated Toes painted I’m feeling primed to lose my mind Good eyebrows Fresh haircut You know just how to get to me Hydrated Just waiting Until we know it’s time to leave You Got to know This is not really love It’s disco baby Ooh The afterglow But this is not really love It’s disco baby Disco, baby that’s all right by me

Cool 03:27
You’ve got this way of being You’ve got this attitude You’ve got their full attention, everybody knows you I heard you hate your body I heard you’re feeling down I heard you changed your name and no one gets it right now You looked so cool Painting your nails with your blue hair over your eyes You looked so cool And I hope you got older and maybe that you realized You look so cool You look so cool You moved out of our hometown You made some better friends You built your own house where you didn’t have to pretend And I’ve been safe my whole life The world takes care of me I see you work so hard but you make it look easy You looked so cool Painting your nails with your blue hair over your eyes You looked so cool And I hope you got older and maybe that you realized You look so cool You look so cool Only one night Only one time Knocks around your head for the rest of your life Only one night Only one line Well it’s their fault for wasting your time anyway I got some memories of you and I And that’ll keep me good for a good while I hope the world holds you The way that I tried to You looked so cool Painting your nails with your blue hair over your eyes You looked so cool And I hope you got older and maybe that you realized You look so cool You look so cool

Clark Kent 04:00
I was back on your old street the other night Cool fluorescent light I felt free and I felt lonely in the dark How it always starts Super Powers They don’t help Feeling Sorry For myself You make everything explode when you’re around Lights colors sounds I call you From a phone booth Like Clark Kent In a new suit After dark An anxious alter ego In a costume Not a hero After all I couldn’t touch you if I tried I couldn’t touch you if I tried I couldn’t touch you if I wanted to I couldn’t if I I’m not scared of being out, I’m scared of you And what you make me do Back on the back bar Your breath inside my mouth I fly over the city Trying to wait October out I call you From a phone booth Like Clark Kent In a new suit After dark An anxious alter ego In a costume Not a hero After all I couldn’t touch you if I tried I couldn’t touch you if I tried I couldn’t touch you if I wanted to I couldn’t if I Thoughts Lights Colors Sounds Super Powers Fail me Now Thoughts Lights Colors Sounds Super Powers Fail me Now I call you From a phone booth Like Clark Kent In a new suit After dark An anxious alter ego In a costume Not a hero After all I couldn’t touch you if I tried I couldn’t touch you if I tried I couldn’t touch you if I wanted to I couldn’t if I

Eden 03:21
Too late for choices I know But I’m up self destructing again Oh no The night full of stars Fumbling inside your car I’d be a ghost if I was half as pale as you are Your phone is face down As if we don’t hear the sound I think you better call your boyfriend now I couldn’t help myself In the Garden of Eden I’m alone Temptation everywhere In the Garden of Eden I was only Trying to help Too late to back out I know I’m just a body that I try to control Oh no If I could rewind I would hit the porch light And not be agonizing here over a dumb night My phone is face down How could no one find out? I think I better put some clothes on now I couldn’t help myself In the Garden of Eden I’m alone Temptation everywhere In the Garden of Eden I was only Trying to help Can we go back? I know we can’t To when we were golden To when we had plans Too late for choices I... I couldn’t help myself In the Garden of Eden I’m alone Temptation everywhere In the Garden of Eden I was only Trying to help

Fair Fight 03:17
Tell me I’m a burden It no longer hurts and I could use the truth every now and then Stuck here by the TV Back seat of my body Thinking what’s the last time I broke a sweat Fun, isn’t it? All this self-destructive shit I get into when I’m alone Fun, isn’t it? When I catch myself in the monitor just trying to fill that hole Uptight Got a habit of beating myself up every night You know I can't win a fair fight Cover my own black eye And this pattern of beating myself up every night You know I can’t win a fair fight Fixate on a thing I Said in 2009 Everyone remembers, I’d be willing to bet I think I really loved you Or some version of you Now I love your ghost on the internet Fun, isn’t it? All this self-destructive shit I get into when I’m alone Fun, isn’t it? When I catch myself in the monitor just trying to fill that hole Uptight Got a habit of beating myself up every night You know I can't win a fair fight Cover my own black eye And this pattern of beating myself up every night You know I can’t win a fair fight Put myself up on the cross Because that’s where I belong Put myself up on the cross Because that’s where I feel comfortable Put myself up on the cross Because that’s where I belong OH NO I’M JUST Uptight Got a habit of beating myself up every night You know I can't win a fair fight Cover my own black eye And this pattern of beating myself up every night You know I can’t win a fair fight
