2:38 doves
4:10 what's the point
6:01 New Recording 50

1. windows
opening a window to get some good fresh air in
just to realize that it was pouring outside
I looked out again and saw the streets all flooded
guess today was not the day

opening the car window to feel the cool, cool wind
now we’re stuck inside the traffic jam
the air is all toxic fumes
guess today was not the day

lately, we haven’t been talking a whole lot
and I feel like I’m at such a loss
your windows are all closed and the sky is turning dull
guess today wasn’t the day for you too

2. ant
I’m weak and frail
and as thin as a nail
I’m so small an ant won’t be able to tell

I’m a nobody
I am so lonely
I’m a ghost so when you see me, you’ll just walk right through me

can you see me now?
can you hear me now?

you’re so nice to me
you’re so lovely
when you sit right next to me, my heart keeps pounding

you’re the reason why
I can never hide
all my feelings to you, I want you to be mine!!!

can you see me now?
can you hear me now?
do you see me now?
do you hear me now?

I just hope that you
can also love me too
in spite of me being such a fool

3. doves
a place that I’ve never been to yet
a feeling I already know too well
a gust of wind kisses on my neck
a feeling that I will never forget

the blue light reaching my eyes from above
filled with clouds and flocks of doves
the trees around wear a brand new coat
it makes me feel like I’m afloat

it’s perfect
it’s all worth it

blades of grass caressing my knees
growing flowers all over my body
nothing else can make a sound
when you are here and all around

the night swoops over and it’s all pitch-black
and I gaze the stars, laying on my back
my head’s mostly empty thoughts
but I still think about you a lot

it’s out of this world
it’s all a blur

to you!
to all the trees I scoured through
to me!
to all the doves I stared at in the sky

4. what’s the point
what’s the point of making the bed
if I’m gonna lie on it again?
what’s the point of ironing my clothes
if it’s just gonna wrinkle as the days go?

taking so much time of my life
I don’t know why

what’s the point of crosswalks
if I’m just gonna get run over by a truck?
what’s the point of apologizing
if you’re just gonna do it all over again

taking so much time of my life
I don’t know why
I just keep doing it all over again
feel like a cat reaching for its tail

just over
and over
and over
and over again

5. New Recording 50
I was planning to write something here
but I didn’t have any ideas
and even if I had one
it’d still sound really weird

my life doesn’t really suck
and I don’t even have a love

so sit right here and listen to me strumming my guitar
I’m not the best at doing this but I guess it’s better than nothing
ooh

I guess I’m just a really boring person
if you went up to me, I’d just stand there awkwardly
’cuz even if I had something to say
you’d probably just get bored and walk away

so sit right back and listen to me strumming my guitar
I know this song is fucking lame but it’s better than nothing
ooh
