i heart mario kart 01:00
lyrics
i heart mario kart i used to play with the boys after school or golden eye on 64 eating pizza and smoking dujour thats the best its ever gonna get no reason to grow up holding your breath we didn't know how good we had it til we got into college, and then writing papers, studying making works of art but nothing measures up against the weight in your heart we used to do shit we used to rock and roll now its 9 to 5 and down bad radio thats the best its eveer gonna get no reason to grow up holding your breath we didnt know how good we had it til you graduate and then you die

doomscrolling 02:33
lyrics
every now and then I feel vibrations in my hands i can't believe how sick i am of seeing my reflection in the screen there's something weird inside my brain I feel alone i can't explain i can't believe how bad i feel when i see all my friends are doing great simulations pull me deeper just like thoughts of distant conversations begging to be saved from all the pain as they decay expectations drift into the pulsing blades of squarewave oscillations frequencies increase until their sighing makes a song every now and then i start to hate my only friends i have to look away i have to cull the breeding pain inside my heart i grab a drum machine and pickup my guitar and make the most pathetic song i've ever made so far

software 01:59
lyrics
i wish i lived in a world where software was just a soft thing you wear and i wish that the web was just a thing between your eyes and your skull and i wish that video games were just a scathing insult and i wish that a computer was just a piece of glass on my wall and i wish that i could say that i need you, love you, want to fuck you i gotta let it out i gotta tell you now that i need you so much i'd never go online again if you so much as take my hand tell me that im yours i wish i lived in a world where charm was just numbers on a screen and i wish that i got a level up every time i felt like i wanted to die and i wish that loneliness was an early game boss, weak against lightning and i wish that i could just click a button that cries out, "i like you"

love is on the cutting room floor 02:28
lyrics
im making a movie about myself if you want a part that would be swell we start shooting sometime soon just waiting on the camera and the tv crew you'll have a seat at the big premiere you'll meet the jacksons they'll all be there you can turn to me at the final cue you can say its charming but kinda blue ill say its so chic ill say its art you want a happy ending you expected more but love is on the cutting room floor i don't need a character to get in the way leave a lot of loose ends when they run away i don't need a story with a meaningless role if you want to leave leave before we roll and i don't understand the appeal of love don't make me cry that ain't no fun cause im the one whos living the scene so write the script and be nice to me ill direct your life we'll get a real good take you'll be out of focus but you'll feel ok and when you sigh ill cut away i won't your heart break

i think its cool 02:18
lyrics
i think its cool that im on my own i always dreamt of being alone why should i envy what i cannot have friends and love and having fun why should i care about that why should i care that i cant live all my dreams why should i notice i feel incomplete one, two, three, four i love to feel forgotten and i think its pretty cool to be totally alone and i love to spend all day on the computer not knowing what the hell im doing with myself and i love having no one to talk to like ever and i think its pretty cool to lie about how you're doing to everyone you know And i love that i already know that they don't care and they never will all i need is myself why should i care why should i notice ill never care

can't 02:28
lyrics
you can't do what your friends do you can only bide your time and watch them from behind you can't jam with the cool kids you can only stand aside and watch them have fun but i should have much more to give there's a place in that world waiting for me and i should have much more to give there's a sound inside of me waiting to scream

like the night we killed the car we pressed onward through the dark until sunrise I can't forget I'll miss it when we're just friends 10 years from now if we're still alive we should get together and pretend to be fine
