1.	Cuffs (I Can Play Guitar Very Fast and Imprecisely) 01:57	lyrics	buy track
You can have my soul Take my love while I’m in cuffs Steal all that you want Just please don’t take my stuff Cameras and guitars Are my actual heart Beat me up if you want But please don’t steal my art You can hurt me if you want You can make me wish I had given up Everything that I own But I don’t have insurance so I’d much rather you not
2.	Outside (I Can Play Guitar Slower and More Precisely Also Though) 03:00	lyrics	buy track
Do you wanna go outside with me I know full well that you’d rather sleep But I can drag the boxspring bed with me To the world outside our room Do you wanna take a walk with me I’ll carry you kicking and screaming To show you a beautiful morning Can’t you see through the fog in your eyes You told me through a mouthful of lukewarm water I put in a glass by your bed with ice Last night That I’m not really here and I never was And you’re not really here you’re just part of the dust In the corner where I see you staring every night Wishing for light Do you wanna go get help with me I saved some money to fix this see I Don’t know what they’ll do to you But I know it can’t be worse than what you do to me And I want you better but you want to stay You don’t like the weather here but you like the grey It feels more at home than a hand knit sweater But I remember you when you liked me better I told you with my arms full of 2 weeks old laundry I forgot about when you got hungry for the first time In awhile That I’m not really here and I never was And you’re not really here you’re just part of the dust In the corner where I see you staring every night Wishing for light There’s a black and white film left on repeat The sound is off so you can barely see What’s going on but you don’t need to know The details to know the story
