Italian Western
03:12

|
You look like an animal,
You stand like a stone,
You act so indifferent,
You're callous and cold.
Is it easy for you to treat me like an illness?
To say I'm villain in a story that isn't yours?
Toughen up, there's a new sheriff in town.
She's a girl, she's a gun,
step aside, she'll shoot you down.
La di da, la di da, la la di da,
La di da, la di da, la di da.
You cry like an infant that's just been dethroned
You tear down the curtains, you watch it unfold.
You like to say that you're the star of an Italian western,
but have you considered you're playing the foe?

You'll Call Me Crazy Too

You scared me in the summer
Talking like you had to
I don’t hold it against you
Now I’ve got it figured out
I was no quitter
Trained myself to give into it
Just to keep you interested
Your silence tortured me
Is this what I want?
I can feel the cost
Sulk to your friends
You’ll call me crazy too
Meanwhile they never knew
All of the shit
That you had put me through
I know you’re not the fool
You called me after midnight
Said that you could let it go
“But baby, that was months ago
The past isn’t my fault”
You sound convincing, but I
Trained myself to snap out of this
trance, I see the smoke and mirrors
I’ve got you figured out
You’re not what I want
I’ll withhold my love
Sulk to your friends
You’ll call me crazy too
Meanwhile they never knew
All of the shit
That you had put me through
I know you’re not the fool
You caused this mess
The monster moves in you
But I won’t lose my cool
I don’t hold it against you
I can live without you now

Benny

Benny was thirty, looked twenty-five
He was a prom queen, class of ’09
But Benny was different, he was a guy
But nobody knew it, he was trying to hide
Benny had long hair, cut it himself
They thought he was sexy, said he should model
The big screen, but he knew, eventually they’d all
Run from poor Benny, he’d be all alone
Shower you in a wave of kisses
You know you’re in a warm, loving home
We will adore you
A beautiful man with a warm, loving home
A warm, loving home
Benny was crying, didn’t want to tell ‘em
After he graduates, they’ll disappear
Because Benny is Benny
And no longer whatever
Name they would call him
They’d probably lose all their love
For poor Benny,
His heart’s in the right place
They’ll still love Benny
He won’t be alone
Shower you in a wave of kisses
You know you’re in a warm, loving home
We will adore you
A beautiful man with a warm, loving home
A warm, loving home
We’ll say your name,
Stand by your side,
You know you’re in a warm, loving home
We will adore
A beautiful man who has always been
Always been
In a warm, loving home
A warm, loving home

The Greatest
03:12
|

It’s just like you to run around and call yourself the greatest
When all I hear coming out from your mouth is the same shit
Just gimme something new to reconsider your merit
I’m over it
And I can’t bear to hear another word of it
And you can’t bear to face the facts
You are less than perfect, just give up the act
You know I used to think you were fine until
I realized your voice was shrill
And you were only hiding the secrets
All the girls you tried berating to pieces
And you think that you deserve special treatment
But there’s a part of me that knows that you know
That you are just another leech and your goal is to
Step over others who deserve it more than you
But it’s that obvious and you won’t sell the truth
I’m warning you, better listen

The World Is Unread
04:13
|

The world is unread
Like a postcard you never mailed in
‘Cause you don’t want to,
You’re grinding your teeth
‘Cause it’s the fifth time this week
A sixth time wouldn’t hurt
Except it’d destroy you
‘Cause you never know
The world is unread
We’ve all got claws in our backs
And nobody’s okay
The world is unread
Like a text you sent that says what he did
You feel so vulnerable
And brought down to your knees
‘Cause it’s the first time he’s hurt you
Another time couldn't be worse, could it?
Except it’d destroy you
‘Cause nobody knows
The world is unread
We’ve barely scratched the surface
Every time we’ve learned something
We’ve ignored twenty more
Are our eyes in our sockets?
Are we barely conscious?
He’s won and you’ve lost it
While he laughs in the office
The world is unread
Like her story’s always been
Is it her fault again?
Do you teach your children?
When a calendar’s a defense
When you pay off your secrets
And party with all your demons
Would you believe your daughter?
Would you believe your daughter?
Would you believe your daughter?
Would you believe your daughter?
