In the desert, where the cities are made of gold There's a girl playing hopscotch with pink ribbon pigtails And her mom calls out from an apartment balcony "Come on baby, your bath is ready! It's almost time for sleep!" And I wonder, who's the father... And I wonder what they call her... oh, Sierra Does her mother smoke or does she jog every morning? Does she drink when she thinks about me? Or doesn't she need to drink? Does she have a man who works a nine-to-five? Does he come home to kiss our young Sierra Tuck her in and say goodnight? And an extra kiss for Mama I want that kiss, that kid, that apartment I'm ready to settle down now So get that man out of my bed I want my daughter back now I wanna kiss her Tuck her in and say, "Goodnight My baby girl, Sierra" Sierra, Sierra, Sierra, Sierra I'll never know, know who you are and I don't deserve to Sierra, Sierra, Sierra, Sierra My little girl, we would've been so... oh, never mind But I'm ready to settle down now Yeah, I'm ready to leave that wrecking ball behind And I could be your carpenter And you could be my twinkling North Star over the desert sky

Dinner's getting cold -- You haven't touched a thing So what's it gonna be? I can hold out much longer than you When it's steady I'm just acting out my roles When you're ready I'll be walking out that door And don't call me Pretty Baby anymore, Oh, foolish worker bee -- I'm your fucking queen. I threw out the phone to try to get through to you The lines are down, drowned by the hum of the radiator This house is the hole that you could never fill With rose-blossomed bouquets, vanities and loveseats Sad little boy, I know you get confused But everyone goes through these trials of self-truth and self-abuse When you're selfless you're so hard not to adore When you're selfish, I just love you even more I want to help you, but you've got to say the words: "I want to be cured." Drowned... Deep in this hole we've dug for ourselves Throw me in -- headfirst, submerged in this great depression Impoverished, and Impotent... ...And Don't Call Me Pretty Baby I threw out the phone to try to get through to you The lines are down, drowned by the hum of the radiator This house is the hole that you could never fill With shattered dinner plates That's how we'll communicate Hey, Pretty Baby, are you ready for bed?

You're doing this on purpose Giving me a glimpse of your life through a filter Drinking champagne, alibis, middle fingers I don't even wanna know So I just leave it all alone But how did it get this way between us? Maybe that's why I didn't wanna believe it Hiding between the lines Until I saw with my own eyes It feels like we are lost again So full of mixed emotions When do we let this die? When did the spark leave both of our eyes? How did it get so messy, messy? I'm drinking without you, I'm thinking about you And it all falls down before our eyes Messy, messy Reckless behavior, I'm out of my league here If this is heaven I don't wanna know what hell is like When did it start? Where does it end? Did we build castles just to play pretend? You slept in my bed, you left me on read Your love is so cold that I could see my own breath I know I got issues, and you got your games Tryna track you down, but I'm just running in place Chasing something that can never be mine I can't win when you move the finish line It feels like we are lost again So full of mixed emotions When do we let this die? When did the spark leave both of our eyes? How did it get so messy, messy? I'm drinking without you, I'm thinking about you And it all falls down before our eyes Messy, messy Reckless behavior, I'm out of my league here If this is heaven I don't wanna know what hell is like If only I could turn back time Go back to where it all began Before everything we did turned into fighting We used to tolerate it We became what we hated Ignoring all the signs So we don't have to compromise How did it get so messy? How did it get here? (How did it get here?) How did it get so messy, messy? Reckless behavior, I'm out of my league here If this is heaven I don't wanna know what hell is like (How did it get messy, messy?) What hell is like (I'm drinking without you, I'm thinking about you) What hell is like (how did it get so messy, messy?) I don't wanna know what hell is like How did it get so messy?

Half of me is Coldplay songs and The other half is Adderall, yeah Lying in the bathroom stall again And I just really can't today and no I'm not okay Yeah I don't wanna play that game, I think I wanna run away Pull the plug, let's get drunk in my bed Give me love, give me drugs 'til I forget Pull the plug 'cause I'm stuck in my head Give me love until something disconnects Give me love until something disconnects Give me love until something disconnects Half of me is Tumblr quotes and The other half is bumming smokes and I'm tired of never coming close again And I just really can't today and no I'm not okay Yeah I just wanna kill the pain, I think I wanna run away (run away) Pull the plug, let's get drunk in my bed Give me love, give me drugs 'til I forget Pull the plug 'cause I'm stuck in my head Give me love until something disconnects Give me love until something disconnects Give me love until something disconnects Half of me is treading water The other half could use a shower, oh Can someone fucking kill the power now? Pull the plug, let's get drunk in my bed Give me love, give me drugs 'til I forget Pull the plug then I fuck you instead Give me love until something disconnects Give me love until something disconnects Give me love until something disconnects
