Where Are My Sunglasses?

I want to be the nightmare of your dreams
And I want to be the monster of the sea cause I know you’ll never find me
When you talk it fucking blinds me
The worst day, guess my hairspray wasn’t strong enough to make you stay
yeah people change, but my friends have always chose to stay the same
And don’t look at me cause eye contact makes my eyes bleed
And don’t wave to me cause I’ll take that offensively
Offensively, you offend me
I would let you in but you would see through me if you looked in my eyes so where are my sunglasses
And I want to be the pothole in your street
But then you crashed into me
And i’m so sorry now that there’s no door in your drivers seat
If you could only begin to breathe underwater then you could be best friends with me
The worst day, guess my hairspray wasn’t strong enough to make you stay
Yeah people change, but my friends have always chose to stay the same

Keep in tact
Losing track of time
Looking back on what we have prioritized cause i’m not getting better, I’m just giving in
Hanging out all by myself
I hate to think of you with someone else
I’m not making bets, I just thought that we were closer
You could rest your head on my shoulder
You are out of my reach, but I saw you from where i'm standing
Cause you are out of my reach, but I saw you
Kill off the caterpillars and wonder why there are no more butterflies
It all started in my living room in the safety of the scent of cheap perfume
It took a second just to talk to you, now i'm so close to you I start thinking like you

Every time you speak it is an echo of me
So every time we talk we are pretending to be happy
We’re not being completely honest, now are we
It took some time to find a place to hide
We’re caged in a room, but it’s not safe inside
I try to remind you why we should stay alive, but i'd be wrong to say I’m right
And I will read about your cursings, then I’ll let you sleep cause I feel sorry
I’d be a different me to see you smiling
And i’ll think of this until the morning

The glistening specks gazed down at our antics
And I envisioned myself giving in to the impulse to hold you
A somber spot blended into an abundance of flashing lights
Your light drowned out the ebony.
I grasped the idea of you admiring me nearly as much as you admired the path that held your hopes and dreams
Is it dense of me to think you, so lively, could see a blink in a somber spot like me?
I took you in, I observed your every incompetent move, your sweet innocence
And it was so thoughtlessly that you killed me
You kill me
I grasped the idea of you admiring me nearly as much as you admired the path that held your hopes and dreams
Gleaming, I hope you’re thinking of me
Am I supposed to turn a blind eye, when you have got your eyes on me?
I felt the air getting cold, you offered to share a seat
I felt your heat,I felt your embers melting me
And you’re melting me
You’re killing me
I felt your embers melting me
But you omit my attention and my energy
Although your words are murmured, they’re endearing
I thought that maybe if I could charm you, you’d notice me
But you omit my attention and my energy

I don’t think that you should help me
Cause I may try but I give up to easily
Constantly not believing in anything
I don’t think that you should try and help me out
I don’t think that you should
help me out
You say i'm smart if I would only apply myself
And it takes time to figure some things out
And I know, and i’ve been waiting so damn impatiently
That I rush you when you’re driving, so I lay down in the back seat
And I can’t wait till I make so much money so I can buy you anything you need
I’m just tired of waiting for time to make me better
I’m just tired of waiting for you
