You could be happy and I won't know
But you weren't happy the day I watched you go
And all the things that I wished I had not said
Are played in loops 'till it's madness in my head
Is it too late to remind you how we were
But not our last days of silence, screaming, blur
Most of what I remember makes me sure
I should have stopped you from walking out the door
You could be happy, I hope you are
You made me happier than I'd been by far
Somehow everything I own smells of you
And for the tiniest moment it's all not true
Do the things that you always wanted to
Without me there to hold you back, don't think, just do
More than anything I want to see you, girl
Take a glorious bite out of the whole world

"When They Really Get to Know You, They Will Run" by Pedro the Lion
What makes you think that it won't grow back
In a day or two
Husbands in winter, they know the truth
But what can they do
I don't like girls the way they are
So shave their legs, and make them look like movie stars
Then we can pretend it's natural
Put on whatever makes you attractive
If it's not you, then do it for the sake of fashion
If your friends like a certain you, that's who you've got to be
Junior high legs; blond hair gone brown
From removing it
Waxing since thirteen - wisdom from a beauty queen
Her tiara digging deep in her head
Put on whatever makes you attractive
If it's not you, then do it for the sake of fashion
If your friends like a certain you, that's who you have to be
That's who you've got to be
I'm starting to think that I'm kinda shy or at least I'd like to be
Winter legs give me heart attacks so take it off with laser, so it never comes back
So we can pretend it's natural

"Options" by Pedro the Lion
We were walking, holding hands,
With our bare feet in the sand
And the seagulls overhead
When I broke the spell and said
I could never divorce you without a good reason
And though I may never have to,
It's good to have options
But for now, I need you
But for now, I need you
But for now, I need you
But it was only in my head
Because no one ever says
What they really mean to say
When there's so much at stake
So I told her I loved her
And she told me she loved me
And I mostly believed her
And she mostly believed me
