We laced our hands together and that alone just made my day She wants to ride The Zipper and so we step into the cage I can feel we're getting higher and you can see this isn't safe but before they go and drop us she calmly turns to kiss my face I can't tell if the girl or the carnival rides got me shaking inside "Just play it cool!" I feel my heart coming up, Chuck is it good, is it bad luck If I die in here with you Tell me what's a boy to do? So we stumbled through the exit I hear that Brandon almost died and we climbed inside the Ferris Wheel to cure my fear of frightening heights I can see us getting higher and you can see your house from here and a million times your lips touched mine and that alone just made my year I can't tell if the girl or the carnival rides got me shaking inside "Just play it cool!" I feel my heart coming up, Chuck is it good, is it bad luck If I die in here with you Tell me what's a boy to do? I'd like to say "I love you" but I don't want to pay all these fees and these fines that my heart has designed just to keep me away, from hurting you I can see that you're scared of me more than the air we fall right through I can't tell if the girl or the carnival rides got me shaking inside "Just play it cool!" I feel my heart coming up, Chuck is it good, is it bad luck If I die in here with you Tell me what's a boy to do? Oh, you see, well, she cries when I touch her but oh god, I love her so what else can I do? I could stay at arm's length (like I'm clever) but oh no, I'd never I know she loves me too So tell me what's a boy to do...?

I blame it on the doctor He surely was a monster And he surely made a monster out of me Elias drove me to the diner I sat right down beside her And I wished that we would never have to leave She's so shy and I Cant believe The birthday girl isn't pretending that she doesnt know me Her touch was very tender and her hands seemed very slender As she fed me her confectionary treats Of course, my work was very sloppy And my words were all forgotten As she opened up her present eagerly She's so shy and I Cant believe The birthday girl Is kissing me We took her home I kissed her more And then we left For a boring show I blame it on the doctor the trite and uptight singer, We could hardly play a note, I didn't care My mind of course was elsewhere And everyone was angered But I couldn't hide the smile that I bared She's so shy and I Cant believe The birthday girl is mine "Hello, Sugarpea"

Had a funny feeling you were over my shoulder Maybe its the frostbite kicking in Guess there goes all hope I had of winning you over But its not why I started this and I'm not about to stop You were the last muse At least until the next one When one door closes Another wound opens Cut myself on these roses Sneaking peeks through your window Its a funny feeling, falling over and over Like I've never been on the ice, my friends Too busy wishing I had your voice recorded Distracted, I roll my ankle again You were the last muse At least until the next one When one door closes Another wound opens Cut myself on these roses Sneaking peeks through your window Been dehumanizing so many boys that I envy They're all selfish pricks, at least if you ask me But I've dehumanized myself in my bitter frenzy Because I believe those boys are better than I'll ever be You were the last muse At least until the next one When one door closes Another wound opens Cut myself on these roses Sneaking peeks through your window As I drift like a glacier in foreign water my last words, in no particular order: "I can't swim.", "I'm sorry.", "You're scalding hot." "I'm an ice cube, you didn't mean to step on." I'm never going to see you again, am I? Glub glub Glub glub

Joyland 02:12
I've run out of things to say No excitement in the chase We just cleared the road of wreckage There's no need to ever mention... You and me again Your boyfriend and all your friends This is no mystery The killer here was history And now I've moved to Joyland The fun, but lonely island And I've run every trail But cant outrun the failure of...
