Lauren (Track 2)

(album: Cosmic Thrill Seekers - 2019)

Lauren
So glad you heard me calling
So glad you know my name
And all my friends, well, the few left
It's just me and you again

Stay at least 'til I'm asleep
'Cause I'm pretty fucking confident
That I'll die the next time
I'm alone in my bedroom
In my own fucking bedroom

Summer
Is right around the corner
You know what that means
Periodically, your friends will all leave
They got their big dreams
I get it, but it fucking sucks
It's the way things go
Come tomorrow
A blinding afterglow

Stay at least 'til I'm asleep
'Cause I'm pretty fucking confident
That I'll die the next time
I'm alone in my bedroom
In my own fucking bedroom

I'm trying to move past this, but no such luck
But you drag me the furthest from giving up
You asked for a smile, now there's nothing but
Yeah, your roar's like a lion's while my mouth's taped shut
Ask me, then I'll tell you why I'm always up so late
Why I still call shotgun no blitz when it's just the driver and me

I'm running out of friends
We'll sleep in different beds
'Cause you make me wanna stay awake
