Michigan mambo
In the midst of all the chaos
We’d still like to rule the world one crisis at a
Time when crisis comes too easy
How could we just straighten out; take a bow?
You wouldn’t want to look around, no
Look around
Puzzle pieces break themselves apart
When it’s too hard to see they can’t fall into
Placement testings for our focus
“Who's to say what’s good enough?”
Cut the fluff
When no one ever gives a fuck
We could all just wait around and wash away
Our sacred broken luck
Michigan mambo
Drown it out
Counting down
Every minute we leave up in the clouds
Start ahead
This year will end
And we’ll feel it again
Might be wrong, forget this song
We can clean up everything when it’s done
Another round
You feel left out
But you don’t have to know, have to know
Guess we’ll go at it alone, yeah

You told me yesterday
As we drove
"You're dying to walk home"
I never felt like this before
When I'm with you I see the world
In beautiful color
"Let's all just try and get along"
Think back to days when you and I
Were two shots from heaven
I know what I did wrong but still
I'm not so sure if I could tell
My rights from my left turns
Punch bowl, oh no
I drink it all, head down as I float
Please don't tell me I'm the one who's lonely
Tell me how to make it, show me how we do it
I know parties got me acting funny
Tell me how to make it, show me how we do it
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah (Tell me how to make it, show me how we do it)
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah (Tell me how to make it, show me how we do it)
It seems I've never been so good
At keeping track of all the things
That bring us together
You tell me I'm just playing dumb
To prove I'm not the only one
Who'd rather be left out
Please don't tell me I'm the one who's lonely
Tell me how to make it, show me how we do it
I know parties got me acting funny
Tell me how to make it, show me how we do it
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah (Tell me how to make it, show me how we do it)
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah (Tell me how to make it, show me how we do it)
Maybe I'll see
It doesn't feel quite right
I'll make it through the night oh no oh
And everything's off
And now I feel there's something wrong
I'll see you in the morning light, no oh
Punch bowl, oh no
I drink it all head down as I choke
Please don't tell me I'm the one who's lonely
Tell me how to make it, show me how we do it
I know parties got me acting funny
Tell me how to make it, show me how we do it
I'm fallin' down (Tell me how to make it, show me how we do it)
Please help me out (Tell me how to make it, show me how we do it)
I wish I would have heard you out
When you said
You're dying to walk home

you call, you disappear

I think I'm fallin' in and out of love
You make it easy when I'm feelin' rough
I know I know I'm just a little tough
But ain't that strange?
Spaced out and flying through an old cartoon
Fragments of your voice slowly come out of the blue
"You like to treat yourself for acting cruel"
Hey man, you know that's the truth
And if I ever make it
I would fall back way too soon
If I wait too long to spell it out
Would I be losing you?
I'm always trying to compete with him
I'll float down to the beach just to hear what sinks, see what swims
I turn around to see you've left me here
And every time you call, you disappear
What's another year?
And if I ever make it,
I would fall back way too soon
Though I'm not the kind to spell it out
I know I'm losing you
When autumn leaves you in a hurry
Screaming I'm no good alone
Just try and let it go
Leave him to sleep in the snow
I could have lost my mind
But you helped me through that night
And I'm still waiting here
I can't stay with all our fears
It's people like you
Who help keep our spirits alive
People like you
Who see through our drunken eyes

Like the nights we’d sneak out our backyards
Waking up past noon
And the times we’d just pretend to care
With our messy hair
Like the days we’d talk of the real deal
Planning our big break
Now those hours, they start to fall apart
Simply play the part for a day
Don’t ever think that it’s just because I said too much
Don’t ever think that it’s just because I’ve had enough
Don’t ever think that it’s just the way I’ve given up
I only wanted to prove that I was growing up
And I’m still growing up
I’m not the only one
Like the times we’d seek out a shelter
From lives we thought we knew
All the ways we’d try and tune it out
For a weekend out
And it never really crossed my mind
We were changing outlooks all the time
But they seemed so shortsighted then
And I think about the times we’d hide
Oh the days we used to step aside
I’ll see them on the other end
Don’t ever think that it’s just because I said too much
Don’t ever think that it’s just because I’ve had enough
Don’t ever think that it’s just the way I’ve given up
I only wanted to prove that I was growing up
And I’m still growing up
I’m not the only one
Oh we should be asking
Our dreams, can they entertain us?
Don’t ever think that it’s just because I said too much
Don’t ever think that it’s just because I’ve had enough
Don’t ever think that it’s just the way I’ve given up
I only needed to prove that I was growing up
And I’m still growing up
I’m not the only one
(Don’t ever think that it’s just because I said too much)
(Don’t ever think that it’s just because I’ve had enough)
Yes, I’m not alone
(Don’t ever think that it’s just the way I’ve given up)
(I only needed to prove)
I’m not the only one

Can you tell me how I lost my reservation?
Invitations thrown right into space
I can't fix everything around me
Maybe if I'm lucky, I'll clean up my ways
And there's no use in being left out
Try to kill the self-doubt, no place left to go
The TV's droning on and on like California midnights
Funny how the movies take me home
Ooh tonight, tonight I just don't care
Watching a romcom, longing for the perfect pair
Please don't wait for me to discover
One of these things is not like the other
Wet dream, movie screen, any foolish lover
Who's gonna crash your movie theatre summers?
Ah ah ah ah
Can you tell me how I got to my apartment?
Must have unlocked it, unless you threw me in
The night drags on, my body's aching
All my things are breaking, they know where I've been
And there's no use in being left out
Not another cop-out, no place left to think
A sitcom drags on like a guilt trip, everybody's shouting
Leave me alone please
Yes, tonight, tonight I just don't care
Watching a romcom, longing for the perfect pair
Please don't wait for me to discover
One of these things is not like the other
Wet dream, movie screen, any foolish lover
Who's gonna crash your movie theatre summers?
Yeah, I wanna go home
I wanna go home
I wanna go home

I saw you last night
Seemed like you were down
I hope you're alright
Saw you fall to the ground
It looked pretty bad
But no one was around
No one was around
I thought I could help
I just don't have the time
I think you should know
It'll work out alright
So let me know
If you're looking for a friend
Just another friend
Oh oh oh oh
Oh I'll leave you alone
Oh oh oh oh
Oh I'll leave you alone
Thanks for your patience
I promise I'm fine
Last night was rough
Man, I nearly died
I'll keep you posted
Don't forget to reply
Forget to reply

If you don't wanna try so hard,
Maybe you'll run, try to move on
Just another night
You could even try and fuck things up
Is it enough?
Now I think you know where I'm coming from
You like to think you're the right kind of person
You like to shoot off all your insecurities
Turn them into remedies
Do you know what else you need and
Now that they're with you
Are you feeling alone?
And maybe they found you
Are you coming back home?
We know it's a sham
Who gives a damn? (aw man)
Did you ever wonder why you lied?
Did you ever want them on your side?
No use in waiting for the rain to come
Drown everyone
Make them know just where you're coming from
You like to think you're the right kind of person
You walk around with your head down
Did you ever wonder why you lied?
Did you ever think we'd realize? (do you know what else you need and)
Now that they're with you
Are you feeling alone?
And maybe they found you
Are you coming back home?
Now that they're with you
Are you feeling alone?
And maybe they found you
Are you coming back home?
I'll never know
There's too much that I need to say
There's too much that I need to say
There's too much that I need to say
There's too much that I really fucking need to say
You don't have to know, have to know (tell me how I lost my reservation)
Guess we'll go at it alone (invitations thrown right into space)
I wanna go home (guess we'll go at it alone)
I wanna go home (guess we'll go at it alone)
I wanna go home (guess we'll go at it alone, yeah)
