  • When you ask how I've been
    I know you mean well, I know you mean well
    Who am I dialing tonight? That's a bummer
    Thaw out my freezer, burn feelings, for twenty summers

    I'm just a cherub, riding comets through the night sky
    Screaming at the stars like night lights
    And I love my life, love my life

    Running middle fingers through the red lights
    And I guess I'm getting older, 'cause I'm less pissed
    When I can't get onto the guest list
    To the end of the world, the end of the world
    Fever dream, tangerine sweat
    When I get down, down
    Silent killers are these years, coming like waves
    (You put the "Fun," into dysfunction)

    Hold me, hold me like a grudge
    The world is always spinning and I can't keep up
    Whoa-oh-oh, faster and faster
    Can't do it on my own
    Part-time soulmate, full-time problem, yeah
    So, hold me like a grudge
    Hold me like a grudge, yea-yeah
    Hold me like grudge
    Hold me like grudge

    I guess somehow we made it back
    And with a few dreams of ours still in tact
    I am a diamond on the inside, just add the pressure
    Know it's inside me, but I got no map, to my own treasure

    I'm just a cherub, riding comets through the night sky
    Screaming at the stars like night lights
    And I love my life, love my life
    Running middle fingers through the red lights
    And I guess I'm getting bolder, 'cause I'm less pissed
    We didn't make to your year-end best list
    Not the end of the world, the end of the world

    Fever dream, tangerine sweat
    When I get down, down
    Silent killers are these years, coming like waves
    (You put the "Fun," into dysfunction)

    Hold me, hold me like a grudge
    The world is always spinning and I can't keep up
    Whoa-oh-oh, faster and faster
    Can't do it on my own
    Part-time soulmate, full-time problem, yeah
    So hold me like a grudge
    Hold me like a grudge, yea-yeah
    Hold me like grudge
    Hold me like grudge

    I thought I knew better, I thought it would get better
    I figured somehow by now, I would have got it together
    And if you put your, put your, heart in it, heart in it
    Then we'll do more than just get by together
    Yeah, call you up and demand you have no fun without me
    I'm like a storm on the horizon, storm on the horizon
    (You put the "Fun," into dysfunction)

    Hold me, hold me like a grudge
    The world is always spinning and I can't keep up
    Whoa-oh-oh, faster and faster
    Can't do it on my own
    Part-time soulmate, full-time problem, yeah
    Hold me like a grudge (no, oh, no)
    Hold me like a grudge (hold me), yea-yeah
    Hold me like grudge (hold me)
    Hold me like grudge

    Hold me like a
