You say I'm cute And I blush You say I’m adorable I hear a crush in my heart I'm not sure if you're joking Or if these feelings can be true I don't know I don't know You say you like me And I scoff But in my heart I can’t shake it off I'm not sure if you're joking Or if these feelings can be true I don't know I don't know Can something start as an accident And blossom into truth? I don't know I don't know

I just always wanna hear you talk I want you to start and never stop I just wanna hear your voice again But you never stay and that’s all fine (Please don’t forget I love you!) I know that you had other things to do that time (I never wanna hurt you) But I’m so selfish, I want you all to myself Oh darling, will you ever tell me what I wanna hear? Will you get back to me? And I’m waiting for you all the time Waiting for your every line And when you tear me apart I’m fine I’m alright Can I get back to you? And I swear that I’ll be soon enough Never wanna give you up I’m staring at your last message I just wanna hear you say that I’m the most important to you Is it so hard for you to say that one more time?

Track 3 02:24
I tried to write a song about you But I don’t think that’s something I can do Because the “you” I write about doesn’t resemble you in any way I wrote a dozen melodies My Notes app is full of remedies But I threw all of them out Art can never describe you You are art itself Will I ever get you right? Am I falling in love with you, or the songs I write? I don’t know, I don’t know I don’t know, oh I don’t know, I don’t know I don’t know, oh Will I ever get you right? Can I even put you in song, are you unwritable? I don’t know, I don’t know I don’t know, oh I don’t know, I don’t know I don’t know I made a bullshit knock off track Plagiarizing punk rock hacks I sang it during a breakdown And called it “love in the time of discord!” Well, I think she likes it And I feel so happy when she smiles After that, I cry alone Because I know that you’ll never truly love me back Will I ever get you right? Am I falling in love with you, or the songs I write? I don’t know, I don’t know I don’t know, oh I don’t know, I don’t know I don’t know, oh Will I ever get you right? Can I even put you in song, are you unwritable? I don’t know, I don’t know I don’t know, oh I don’t know, I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know, I don’t know I don’t know, oh I don’t know, I don’t know I don’t know

You’re the first to treat me like a girl You’re the person who showed me where this name comes from Showed me a song It just started as a joke for us But I started to feel like there was something real You made me feel Boy, I’m not sure This is my first time I’ve ever felt this way about someone Oh, I don’t know if love can start from a lie I keep thinking about but I don’t know why Oh, even if it’s nothing I don’t want it to end So just please don’t say that I am just a friend

Fell out of my body And you put me back I’m not gonna ask how it got here so quickly My mind is being detached My body’s all out of match You’re just the one that I needed Fell down into love That I didn’t want Baby, baby I’m a natural addict Maybe I was just never meant for you Save me Would you hand me the verdict Can I ever be good enough to you? We’re spending hours It’s like we were born to talk I could hear you going on for hours But sometimes I don’t really get what you mean You say you love me Trust me, you tell me But I have never learned to trust when someone gives me love They never come true That includes you too Baby, baby I’m a natural addict Maybe I was just never meant for you Save me Would you hand me the verdict Can I ever be good enough to you? You fell asleep while we were calling I listened as your voice went silent I couldn’t wake you up So I just closed my eyes I know I’ll get used to this Pretending that I kissed your cheeks And it will always be a dream I started to cry I’m thinking of the ways it could end Cause it will always be a dream I never wanna hurt you! I never wanna hurt you! Please let it only be a dream Will you ever wanna hurt me? Will you ever wanna hurt me? Baby, baby I’m a natural addict Maybe I was just never meant for you Save me Would you hand me the verdict Am I ever good enough? (Good enough) Can I ever be good enough to you? I never wanna hurt you

I wrote you a song again And I think it was a good one But you’re far away from me now And I’ll never show you this song I never knew that listening to my own song could hurt this much I’m fucked up cause you were too afraid to say goodbye All this time, I knew That I was always gonna be alone It’s alright, I knew You didn’t love me, and that's fine I’ll miss you but I’ll let you go this time
7.
And you’re gone So when the sun is setting You don’t say “good night” And every night I sleep alone And I tell myself I’ll be fine without you That I can sing this song without crying No, I’m not fine Don’t ask me twice You don’t have to worry I’ll be alright Sleep through the night And maybe I can let you go No, I’m not fine Don’t ask me twice You don’t have to worry I’ll be alright But I still want you to think about me Please don’t let me go

So Long! 01:49
I used to think we had a future I thought about moving in with you It’s such a fantasy, thinking back I wanted to take your hand and run away We could go to somewhere far away And be together So say goodbye And let the dream just die Then I’ll never ask again So please just say that you thought about it too I loved you Falling in love with you as art Singing songs you didn’t know until now I miss you I fell in love and yeah, it’s alright It’s still a part of what makes who we are

about

Bonus B-side tracks for the deluxe tape release of Dysfunctional Bunnygirl! These were the first songs I wrote for the album, almost all of which I ended up cutting. I basically made a whole album and scrapped it and started it again. (I kept Love in the Time of Discord though)

The album was originally a lot less noisy, more power poppy, in general less emo influence. Bringing in Biddy Fox solidified the album's direction more solidly into that emo sound, which is why I decided to cut all of these songs. They work nicely as their own album though, so I've put them here! (This was also the original name of the album!) Almost all of them are unfinished and only 1-2 minutes long. If this was a full album, they'd all have second verses and bridges and all that good stuff but I was in a hurry to complete these for the tapes. They kinda work better this way though, because the ideal pop song should be like 1 minute and 40 seconds long anyway.

Hope you enjoy them and also the tape if you bought one! :D
