Newports
From your mom’s purse
Dark hair
Ripped T-shirt
Adolescent
Despair
Maybe overdramatic
But it’s there
As you’re waiting for the summer to end
Because you’re gonna try and start again
As you’re waiting for the summer to end
Because you’re gonna try and start again
Burn the letters she sent
Wipe her lipstick from your mirror
Tell yourself you’ll respond
To all your friend’s missed calls
As you’re waiting for the summer to end
Because you’re gonna try and start again
As you’re waiting for the summer to end
Because you’re gonna try and start again
Newports
From your mom’s purse
Dark hair
Ripped T-shirt

I found your missing dog
Lying in the street today
Tire tracks imprinted
on its face
My head is an abattoir
And it keeps me nauseous
And it keeps me awake
And it keeps me
And it keeps me awake
And it keeps me
And I don’t feel like I
Am more than my disease these days
Worry lines painted
on my face
And isn’t this depressing?
I think you deserve a break
And everybody loves a chorus
Everybody loves a chorus
And everybody loves a chorus
Swimming pools and kerosene
Lawn clippings whipped up by the wind
I’m older
But not much else has changed
And the things you people do keep me afraid
The things you people do keep me awake
Keeping me awake
They are keeping me awake
And they keep me
And it keeps me awake
Lay in the heat
And wait for the rain
To wash the worry
From my face

Calls from across the street
Bright eyes, wolf teeth
I’m afraid of where my friends sleep
And who they’re waking up with
Stories from the T.V. screen
Taste blood between my teeth
Another girlfriend beat
To show her just how much she means
I’ll put on a skirt
You’ll cut your hair short
Pretend we can escape
The roles we’ve played since birth
But I respond to each offense
Fists raised forehead drenched
Pretend that this is not the same
Break, bend, and dominate
A violent response
To gendered violence
I want an alternative
A better way to defend
And we’ll sweat in the back of your car
Cursing each other to feel empowered
The way that we’ve been told
This is how two broken halves become a whole

Iiiiiii am the kind of joke
Your uncle tells at
Family gatherings
Where noooobodies laughing
It’s uncomfortable and
Embarrassing
And I don’t know what’s worse
If you agree or disagree
Loooooooow expectations
Is a trait I
Find attractive
Tell meeeeeeeeee
I’m not the worst thing
That’s happened to you
Oh, by all means
Complain about your ex again
If I saaaaay that I want you
Would you say it back to me?
I think I’d like that
If I saaaaay that I need you
Would you say it back to me?
I think I need you to
How fucked up is that?
But I’ve been feeling
A loss of feeling
Post-electrocution numb
And I’m ashamed to say
I wish you felt the same
A loss of feeling
