about

A gift to you from us to celebrate Jenna's birthday!

1. WE’RE BAAAAACK
the pups are back
we're back and we're strong
we lied we're still weak
our fault
but we try and we do what we can
the pups are back
the pups are back
the pups are back

2. I CANNOT
you wanted me to be the one
you wanted me to be so fun
you wanted
you wanted
you wanted something else

i cannot be something i’m not
i cannot
i cannot
i cannot
i cannot

i cannot be something i’m not
i cannot
i cannot
i cannot
i cannot
i cannot
you wanted me to be the one
you wanted me to be so fun
you wanted
you wanted
you wanted something else

3. WHEN I WAKE UP
when i wake up
i brush my teeth
and put on things that feel
as close to what feels real
when i was young
i never thought
about my little shorts
or whats inside them
now it just all hurts
when i wake up
i brush my teeth
and put on things that feel
as close to what feels real

4.I DONT WANNA I JUST WANNA
i don’t wanna go
i just wanna be
i don’t wanna show
any part of me
privacy
i just wanna go
escape
be by myself and be out of the way
i am gonna hide
my face
do my best to not make more mistakes
i don’t wanna go
i just wanna be
i don’t wanna show
i just wanna go
escape
be by myself and be out of the way
i am gonna hide
my face
do my best to not make more mistakes
i just wanna go
escape
be by myself and be out of the way
i am gonna hide
my face
do my best to not make more mistakes
i don’t wanna go
i just wanna be
i don’t wanna show up
i don’t wanna go
i just wanna be
i don’t wanna show up

5. ALL DOGS GO TO HEAVEN
i never thought i was the one
but maybe the few
i never thought i was
good enough for you
i know im a reject
i'm sour not sweet
i know i never should
be the one to meet parents
(but parents) love me
i think i should be
buried next to all the
all the dogs
i met on the street who’s names i sadly forget
all dogs go to heaven

6. SIDE (UNHAP) B
we made it through side a
and on to side b
but we're never on the same side
or on the same page
we're never happy
together ut oh…

7. DAILY RX
no one finds fun
after a month
of hanging out with me
unless im on my daily
rx
for sex
for mood
my bad attitude
to sleep
to wake
to converse
to escape
this body

this brain
this world full of pain
i don’t blame you

8. PROFESSOR OH NO
you sent me a note
you passed it through folks
you told me to choose
i can either win or lose
i checked one not both
of the squares then froze
but then i passed it back
through folks but it was then snatched
professor oh please don’t
embarrass us/me
professor please let us
answer discretely
you can’t believe all that you read…

9. DIGITAL BOYFRIEND
i need more time spent
it has not been sent
but now i’m in a tunnel without your text
i needed
that message
screens and text
emails sent
digital
digital
boyfriend relationship
screens and text
emails sent
digital
digital
boyfriend relationship
i need more time spent.

10. WAYWARD FOR WAYWARD
can we hang out when you’re outta juvie
maybe sometime this fall
that's if you get out on real good behavior
but those chances are small
why can’t i stop falling for the wayward girls
they don’t see me at all
trouble don’t find me
i seek it out
trouble don't find me
there is no doubt
i search for trouble
knowing the end
i search for trouble
she’s my best friend new trend
wanna hang out when i'm outta juvie
maybe sometime this fall
that's if i get out on real good behavior
but those chances are real small
why can’t you stop falling for the wayward girls
trouble don’t find you
you seek it out
trouble don't find you
there is no doubt
you search for trouble
knowing the end
you search for trouble
she’s your new trend
wayward for wayward
how many times do we need to
give you all of the hints and truths
don’t you know that you too are ru-
-ined and traumatized
stop looking at us for a fix
we’re working on ourselves as it is
we’re tired and we do not need
another project
