Taking Pictures

(album: V2 - 2018)

Break your own heart
Make modern art
We all can do it
Fire off your dart
Then go back on your phone

So sweet inside
Chocolate in bed
Maybe we wanna suffer
Get out your head
You're going it alone

Kick your shoes off, take a load off
I can buy some drinks if it means hanging out with you
Super small talk, we can just walk back to my street
I'd rather not be

Staying out all night
I'm getting tired of the weekend
Staying out all night
I think I'm over all your fake friends
And taking pictures of them

I'd rather take one of you

Sit next to me
Try not to read all the signals I mix
So young and free
It's dumb and stupid 'cause normally I'd see it

So sweet inside
Oh Juliet
I like your melodrama
Get in my head
And we can go it alone

Kick your shoes off, take a load off
I can buy some drinks if it means hanging out with you
Super small talk, we can just walk back to my street
I'd rather not be

Staying out all night
I'm getting tired of the weekend
Staying out all night
I think I'm over all your fake friends
And taking pictures of them

I'd rather take one of you

I don't wanna be relateable, I barely go outside alone
And when I do, I do it quiet so nobody knows
It's the love I always dreamed, and I don't lack a single thing
So why's it feel like nothing's ending off where it's supposed to be?

Can't figure it out, my heart's a rental
I made friends with all my doubts, hardly existential
When essentially all I ever see are computer screens
And it seems like there's gotta be something more to me

Perception isn't everything, work with what you have
If it's bottled up emotion, pop the cork, tip it back
I'm not acting high and mighty, I'm just high and I'm sad
But can you take another picture 'cause the lighting was bad
