Anything You Like

I don't think I can say goodbye
I don't think much of this but I know everything must die
Play my piano, I can't sing for you, sorry I'm shy
You can have anything that you want, babe, anything you like
I know that it's hard to know me
I promise that I'm not angry
I just want you to tell me to leave
Just tell me to leave
Cut my hair on your bedroom floor later that night
Told me I look a mess but I looked like you in the right light
Heaven was a junkyard, took me there so I could stay in my mind
I could be anything that I want, babe, anything I like
I hope that you feel empty
I can't help if you don't let me
I just want you to tell me to leave
Just tell me to leave

I'm in the back seat, you cannot catch me
We're still going strong
Out from the windscreen, I think it's been him all along
But I wish we could be friends
Oh, I wish we could be friends again
I'm in a new place
Think I'll draw him in case my love turns to hate
I think I fucked this up, don't have to tell me
Don't I know it, babe
But I wish we could be friends
Oh, I wish we could be friends again
Oh, I wish we could be friends
Oh, I wish we could be friends again

Waving To My Girl

Are we having the time of our lives?
In her garden, I watched my mother cry
You are the gift and I hold the apple to your eye
I see it green and you see it blind
Oh, darling, don’t fuss, I will say goodbye before the show
Please don’t call my bluff every time I’m walking out the door
If you’re ready, I can take it, I still love you like I did before
I’m meeting my woman, you are waving to my girl
I pay it to your view
If it’s love I didn’t give to you
And I don’t care about it, don’t wanna talk it through
If that is all I can do
Oh, darling, don’t fuss, I will say goodbye before the show
Please don’t call my bluff every time I’m walking out the door
If you’re ready, I can take it, I still love you like I did before
I’m meeting my woman, you are waving to
My girl, ooh
My girl, ooh
My girl, ooh
My girl, ooh
Are we having the time of our lives?

Holidays

I don’t know if this will change
I still love you the same
I woke up and I felt ashamed
I guess I’ll do this again
Your birthday came and passed in May
I nearly died and they sung your name
Know we were something, now we are nothing
And I just hate that I was a stranger to your mother
It is confusing, I knew you deeply, now we are nothing
You said “baby you’re insane"
"Sleep now, listen to Greenwood again"
And I don’t know just who to blame
Bury the hatchet, leave me a keepsake, friend
Know we were something, now we are nothing
And I just hate that I was a stranger to your mother
It is confusing, I knew you deeply, now we are nothing
And do you remember two days before Christmas?
Houses were glowing like they knew things
But you don’t live there anymore
I’ll always be here and you’ll be somewhere

Bad Ones
03:26

I'm feeling rough
I gave you my love
All of the good stuff
I knew this would go wrong
I knew it all along
I am done with the bad ones
I think we had a good run
Keep those photos, I don't know what you want
I am done with the bad ones
I'm feeling drunk
Naked in your home
This is risky, please just kiss me
I'm sorry to be bold
I don't know you at all
I should put on some clothes
I am done with the bad ones
I think we had a good run
Keep those photos I don't know what you want
I am done with the bad ones
I am done with the bad ones
I think we had a good run
I moved house and I have some room for once
I am done with the bad ones

Showreel

Tomorrow brings the new year
The garden is a showreel
But I cannot look at it so I sit with your sadness
I still have your memory and for that I am grateful
My sister tells a story
The same as from this morning
I don’t know; not like you do
Your lips are a bow and I am at your table
Don’t say that I am graceless, maybe I’m not so careful
For you my darling, anything I’d answer
I walked out of there screaming
All of my colours flying
And in my head they painted all of our moments perfect
I know you’ve been trying to see me like I’m something
But some things can be missed and my eyes cannot miss you
It hurts me to say it so I’ll sing all my blue
So I don’t have to dream it, no, I don’t have to sleep through
And sometimes I had reason, sometimes I had you
For you, my darling, anything I’d do
Anything I’d do

Bullseye

Honey, you are cold as I’m sharp
You say it’s a long shot
I’m your bullseye and your first mark
I’m your straight arch
You are the sun that I take in
That I keep out
That I hold as it kicks out
You are the sun that I hope has long gone
Feels like we’ve met
You’re familiar, you’re my sinner
You say it’s a short stop
Wear your old shoes; it’s a small bar
You are the one that I think of when my day’s out
What a big heart
Hope you’re somewhere with a warm light
I’m your cold bright little sunlight
Sunshine

Fireworks & Lemon Pie

I said it without warning, I, I
I could be your calling, I, I
I miss you in the morning, I, I
I saw you in the lowest light
I should have done you right
I dreamt life passed me
But New Year’s I got high
Fireworks and lemon pie
There’s nothing I can do but try
Still working at the movies at night
I got a bad review, well fuck you, I’m just tryna get by
Three stars down, I’m not the best out of five
I wanna start a fight
Customer’s always right
But New Year’s I got high
Fireworks and lemon pie
I should have done you right
And kissed you at the time
I thought you could be mine
But New Year’s I got high
Fireworks and lemon pie

Maybe Baby

Call you up, calm you down
Adelaide, she doesn’t want you around
Sure, surprise, I’ll do what I can
I don’t know that I wanted to be your man
Christmas time, thousand lights
Fell from the ceiling to your eyes
You insist that you’ll do what you can
I don’t know that I can fix your lonely head
And I don’t know that I want you to call me again
I wanna know you better
I can’t be here forever
I think it hurts the most when I know your secrets but I’m
Still asking these dumb questions, receiving blank expressions
I think you’re right
I think you’re right
Flaming trees, Violet Town
Drove past the inlet through the South
Thought how you might like it better here
Lucky trinkets for a better year
Chin up, baby, I know things will be better
Don’t just hate me, what a waste of all the effort
I know lately it’s not easy to remember
But just stay here, I’m not ready to forget you
I wanna know you better
I can’t be here forever
I think it hurts the most when I know your secrets but I’m
Still asking these dumb questions, receiving blank expressions
I think you’re right
I think you’re right
I think you’re right
I think you’re right

Freckled Like an Orchid

Freckled like an orchid
Two bowling ball cheeks
You said before I was born that you were terrified of me
Played cowboys with your brother
Had a losing streak
I know you lost your mother
Don’t take it out on me
Met your sister in the blue ward
New mouth to feed
That baby grew up on a fruit farm
You moved from that city
Head halfway out the window at a frightening speed
And I remind you of her
That does not comfort me
Heaven is here in this body
I can love more in recovery
Heaven is here in this body
I can love more in recovery

Untourable Album
by Men I Trust
supported by 18 fans who also own “Waving To My Girl”
A truly stunning album that mentally transports you to foggy early morning streets, the pavement wet from recent rains. Dreary, but in a comforting way. Like sitting next to a window during a rainstorm, listening to the drops hit the glass while remaining warm. Never fails to make me feel safe.
