There’s a girl who lives in New York State They say what a pretty city what a pretty city Let me rephrase There’s a girl who lives Upstate They say like Buffalo more like Toronto and then they go away Cause who needs another girl who stays up too late Doesn’t sleep or have a date And obeys but doesn’t say that she does And doesn’t wear glasses and probably should And is gonna run off to Hollywood as soon as soon as she gets out of this place So just let her know just let her know Who's taking the high, taking the highroad Just tell her who just tell her who So she can make a reservation to see the whole world with you There’s a boy who lives in New York State They say what a pretty city what a pretty city They ask him for his name and his address But he’s too shy I don’t know why He’s just that kind of guy Cause who needs another boy who stays up too late Doesn’t sleep or have a date and obeys but doesn’t say that he does And doesn't wear glasses and definitely should And is gonna run off to Hollywood as soon as soon as he gets out of this place So just let him know just let him know Who's taking the high, taking the highroad Just tell him who just tell him who So he can make a reservation to see the whole world with you With you Make a reservation to see the world So just let them know just let them know Who's taking the high, taking the highroad Just tell him who just tell him who So they can make a reservation to see the whole world for two

70s Wannabe 03:21
Making some time and sparing a dime to see how much being a lady is payed Walking through fall and as night gets dark you think we all just want to be saved Writing is exhausting but how else are we going to get our story’s told Writing is exhausting and we’re speaking to the cranky and old It’s like we’re In the 70s Yeah we’re 70s wannabes And we’re going nowhere And the cardboard oh it’s running thin Yeah we’re just searching for an alibi to love Yeah we’re just searching for an alibi to love Moving so fast we’re forgetting the last and living life in seconds Not even know that as time is going we’re living in the era of legends Speaking is exhausting but how else are we going to get our stories out there Speaking is exhausting and we’re speaking to a bunch of people who don’t care It’s like we’re In the 70s Yeah we’re 70s wannabes And we’re going nowhere And the cardboard oh it’s running thin Yeah we’re just searching for an alibi to love Yeah we’re just searching for an alibi to love

When I said I wasn’t going anymore That might’ve been a lie Can’t you see I can’t stay here anymore And I have the time to tell you why Can’t you see my skins growing weeds And my flowered mind need watering I’m taking to those all around Along with the shadows after noon Never count on needing a crowd That’s a message from my bedroom to you To you And our eyes will blossom as the sun comes upon us And it’s true That all though we’re rock bottom We won’t turn to fossils And we’ll grow up and grow up and on My ceilings looking at me I smile but it doesn’t smile back Maybe one day it’ll show its teeth While watching me lose track to you To you And our eyes will blossom as the sun comes upon us And it’s true That all though we’re rock bottom We won’t turn to fossils And there’s few So you can’t turn rotten Even though we’re all spotted black and blue We’re not soft as cotton And we’ll make it to autumn And we’ll grow up and grow up and on

My nails are ruin My rings unpolished I can’t give advice Without any knowledge The carpets woven with our hearts and our hands Look at the skyline Is that new I turn right beside you and see your lips turn blue Lets take tomorrow and make it our que Cause I’m kissing statues kissing statues I’m Missing curfew in reference to a girl East of the sun and west of the moon It’ll all go away soon In the palm of father times hand I never knew of something as quick as sand Let me finish my coffee And I’ll come up with a plan Oh I’ve talked to the son of god To the son of the moon And I never came close to finding you I’ve walked with sunsets And I’ve looked over seas But everything is killing me Cause I’m kissing statues kissing statues I’m Missing curfew in reference to a girl East of the sun and west of the moon It’ll all go away soon In the palm of father times hand I never knew of something as quick as sand Let me finish my coffee And I’ll come up with a plan

Apple Pie 03:27
Haven’t written in a while Only written off a smile Can’t say what I miss the most But I think that we’re at a start Forgive what I said a month ago I was changing my style and I didn’t know How to feel what I felt inside But now I’ve lived and it’s a lie Let’s talk about dreams Over tea and apple pie Let’s talk about love And how it finally came by And Remember that time Remember that time And yes we’ve change a lot And we’ll never go back To how it was How many songs do I have to write To prove to you that you’re the love of my life And now I don’t know what happening But I think that we’ll start at the beginning Let’s talk about dreams Over tea and apple pie Let’s talk about love And how it finally came by And Remember that time Remember that time And yes we’ve change a lot And well never go back To how it was

It’s such a sad lonely day And I usually like rain But not today Not today Life is such a great affair With all of us just staying here But not today Not today Cause our shoes are too white for the season And I have quite a bit of cabin fever And I've tried to wake up I've tried to wake up but I’m not dreaming I’m not dreaming And I’ve gone off the roads for no reason What I’d give for a night outside with you all feeling freezing And I've tired to wake up I've tried to wake up but I’m not dreaming I’m not dreaming I’m not dealing My hope is for July That’s when we’ll feel alive no promises no promises That’s when I turn 18 That's when we won’t be unseen but no promises No promises Cause our shoes are too white for the season And I have quite a bit of cabin fever And I’ve tried to wake up I’ve tried to wake up but I’m not dreaming I’m not dreaming And I’ve gone off the roads for no reason What I’d give for a night outside with you all feeling freezing And I’ve tried to wake up I’ve tried to wake up but I’m not dreaming I’m not dreaming
