"The Pacific" lyrics
"The Pacific"
I like it better when I'm alone
But not like this
I like it when it's a choice
And not a prior commitment
'Cause all the time and the distance
Has got me feeling like a kid
And I wanna take the next flight home
But I'll be back for the summer
Where my Momma moved all my things
To the room by the front door
'Cause it was smaller and empty
I'll be back for the summer
New number and a couple other friends
That I don't talk to anymore
'Cause the talk is smaller and empty
And I'm feeling like I'm sleeping
In the middle of the ocean
It's the closest I can be
To you and them and me
'Cause to be everywhere is nowhere
And I'm caught there in-between
It's the closest I can be simultaneously
How many of us are in The Pacific?
How many lovers drowned in their ambition?
'Cause baby it felt like a minute
And I know change is slow
But all my friends are different now
How long have I been gone?
I left you stateside
Call you after midnight
You can make me feel right (feel right)
When the seas get rough
We'll dream of a timeline
When I got my money right
And we don't have to worry 'bout
A long haul flight (alright)
When the times get tough
And I'm feeling like I'm sleeping
In the middle of the ocean
It's the closest I can be
To you and them and me
'Cause to be everywhere is nowhere
And I'm caught there in-between
It's the closest I can be simultaneously
(I'm homesick but I don't know
I don't know where home is)
How many of us are in The Pacific?
How many nights will I lie under a different sky
Wishing you were under mine?
How many souls are lost to The Pacific?
How many sleepless nights does it elicit?
I'm just trynna keep my head up, up above
Above The Pacific
(I'm homesick but I don't know where home is)

King Princess - "1950" I hate it when dudes try to chase me
But I love it when you try to save me
'Cause I'm just a lady
I love it when we play 1950
It's so cold that your stare's 'bout to kill me
I'm surprised when you...

Like I'd follow you around like a dog that needs water
But admit it you just wanted me smaller
If you would've let me grow you could've kept my love

MUNA - "Winterbreak" You say I'd best be going cause it's getting late
And I say
Why don't I walk you home cause it's on the way
But the last time
That we made love, you left in tears
So this time
You're wondering how to...
Bea Miller & 6LACK - "it's not u it's me" I did anything you wanted, that's me
Gave you everything you wanted
But I started feeling haunted by me
Cause it wasn't what I wanted
And you were trying so hard with your pictures to look richer...
Andrew Belle - "The Enemy" My heart gets lost like a message
My head is on the clouds
And I don't get it
And so I'm fashionably numb
Sometimes it helps to forget
Where we come from
Out of the mire we were torn from
Remember...
