Nobody else on the planet writes songs for me.

Being with you is like 
being alone
She said.
You understand that empty 
is not just another word 
for dread.



We can drive out through Ohio
with our phones and our windows down
We can talk about escaping
to the places with nobody
around--

and if the car doesn't start
we'll just stay in the parking lot
watch the locals come and go
and listen to their weather talk.

Can you help me find Jupiter 
cause I swore that I saw it
at the back of scorpios tail
in virgos front pocket.

Can you help me up this hill
cause I swear that I lost it
somewhere between birth and today
it all got exhausting.

I saw some Mormons downtown
and I wanted to hand them my soul.
you said it's 1 in the morning
I was thinking more of waffles and cokes.

so we drove to the diner, but the waiter was 
too shady for me- so we went over to the north side
cause hipsters are still better than creeps.
so we went over to the north side
where the laughter and the donuts are cheap.

Being with you is like 
being alone
She said.
You understand that empty 
is not just another word 
for dread.
