Lyrics: 1. Pool Kids - "No Stranger" (0:00) You’re nicer to me now I always knew you’d come around Reasons and reasons No stranger to the sound Carpet apartment Where we first got high Where we tried to drink ourselves to death But we made it out alive Your friends started talking to me again Think about the time that we could’ve spent I never wanted anything near this, not anything near this What we could’ve had Oh, what we had Oh, what we had Tell me one more time what you said, what you said It wasn't coming through clearly, ahhhhh Say it slow I can’t see where you won’t shine a light And I won’t miss losing what I never try to find (woah) I get a feeling that it’s never gonna last 'Cause it’s feeling like an itch that you’re never gonna scratch (woah) I can’t go where I try to lead And I need this feeling more than you need me Oh, I lost you there I lost you there Carpet apartment Before the rent got high Before I read the end Before we made it out alive Carpet apartment Before the rent got high Before I read the end Before we made it out alive 2.

I worked so hard to scrub it clean and then You fucked it up again Got caught up in your head What's the use in us playing pretend? I'm holding more spite than anyone would recommend It's eating me alive It's rotting my insides And you play too rough Try to act so tough with your silly regurgitated opinions You're speaking over the people you say you're lifting Oh, it's been years And you talk too much Always showing up with a round of verbal ammunition Now I'm ganging up with all your little minions 'Cause they're afraid of you And I'm afraid of you I guess that means you win You're underneath my skin And you've been comfortable there for quite some time now While I've been learning how to Learning how to ignore you Why can't we call it even? I tried so hard not to be so mean and then It started to make sense Play the motions through my head If you're the one who's always on the offense No ones gonna think to check inside your closet Skeletons collecting dust Sorted neatly, one by one Learning how to I'm learning how to To ignore you Learning how to ignore you And people like you And people like you 'Cause people like you They know how to get what they like 3.

Lyrics:
1. Pool Kids - "No Stranger" (0:00)
You’re nicer to me now
I always knew you’d come around
Reasons and reasons
No stranger to the sound
Carpet apartment
Where we first got high
Where we tried to drink ourselves to death
But we made it out alive
Your friends started talking to me again
Think about the time that we could’ve spent
I never wanted anything near this, not anything near this
What we could’ve had
Oh, what we had
Oh, what we had
Tell me one more time what you said, what you said
It wasn't coming through clearly, ahhhhh
Say it slow
I can’t see where you won’t shine a light
And I won’t miss losing what I never try to find (woah)
I get a feeling that it’s never gonna last
'Cause it’s feeling like an itch that you’re never gonna scratch (woah)
I can’t go where I try to lead
And I need this feeling more than you need me
Oh, I lost you there
I lost you there
Carpet apartment
Before the rent got high
Before I read the end
Before we made it out alive
Carpet apartment
Before the rent got high
Before I read the end
Before we made it out alive
2. Pool Kids - "Talk Too Much (Alternate Version)" (03:38)
You talk too much
I can't hear my own thoughts over your performative opinions
I'll take it up with all your little minions
'Cause they're afraid of you anyway
I think I'll pass
After all no one asked
I guess they don't have to
To get a piece of you tonight
Oh, I'll bet you're fun at parties
Bet you're the last one to leave
Why can't we call it even?
I worked so hard to scrub it clean and then
You fucked it up again
Got caught up in your head
What's the use in us playing pretend?
I'm holding more spite than anyone would recommend
It's eating me alive
It's rotting my insides
And you play too rough
Try to act so tough with your silly regurgitated opinions
You're speaking over the people you say you're lifting
Oh, it's been years
And you talk too much
Always showing up with a round of verbal ammunition
Now I'm ganging up with all your little minions
'Cause they're afraid of you
And I'm afraid of you
I guess that means you win
You're underneath my skin
And you've been comfortable there for quite some time now
While I've been learning how to
Learning how to ignore you
Why can't we call it even?
I tried so hard not to be so mean and then
It started to make sense
Play the motions through my head
If you're the one who's always on the offense
No ones gonna think to check inside your closet
Skeletons collecting dust
Sorted neatly, one by one
Learning how to
I'm learning how to
To ignore you
Learning how to ignore you
And people like you
And people like you
'Cause people like you
They know how to get what they like
3. Pool Kids - "Arm’s Length (Alternate Version)" (07:42)
I'm in a group chat
With 21 god damn people
I wish I was exaggerating, but I'm not
My phone crashes 37 times a day
But it's nice to have friends
Sometimes it's nice to be left on read
(Wait, no it's not)
I think I'm taking things too personally
When did I get so sensitive?
I don't think I have the energy to make it out of my bed today
It's not even a bed
I've been sleeping on an air mattress with a hole
For almost three months
And sometimes when I can't sleep
I can feel the space I've put between
The only people I'd risk anything for
But if they'd whisper at my door
I'd probably hide under the sheets
I work a job where
I swear to god they're setting a timer when I take a bathroom break
And I'm barely scraping minimum wage and the
Things they have the audacity to ask of me
Better catch up with them eventually
Oh, I'm begging please
Let it catch them eventually
It's my last night in the city that taught me I'm an extrovert
And here I am spending it alone
Laying on a carpet floor, staring at a wall
Listing off all of the places I would rather be
And it's my fault
I did this to myself
I crawled into a hole for a six months
Then came creeping back out
Expecting everything to be the same
And I dug this pit
And you enabled it
So I guess I'll
I'll disappear again, 200 miles West this time
I'll get a job and make some fake friends and I'll be
Fine
Just like the last time
Just like the last time
Arm's length, arm's length this time
Arm's length
It's safer that way
4. POOL - "Cleansing" (11:41)
Rip me apart
Tear me to shreds
Same old routine
Until i'm dead
Until I'm dead
Until I'm dead
Until I'm dead
Take what you see, darling
Say what you mean
I won't come home to you
Until I'm clean
Blegh
5. POOL - "Inside A Wall" (13:01)
It keeps me up at night
I lay awake
It never gives me a fucking break
I begged Him on my knees, I found God
You tried to call me a fucking fraud
I used my last wish, I'm out of luck
I know the ending, you stupid fuck
Now there's a stranger
That likes to watch
Hidden eyes inside a wall
Inside a wall
Inside a wall
Insane a wall
How could I’d known who’d be there?
How could I’d known what they’d do?
How could I’d known what’d be taken?
Do I even want it back?
6. POOL - "Death Sentence" 14:29
Keep your fucking mouth shut
I want to make you suffer
Make every last inch crawl
I want to make you suffer
Make every last inch crawl
There’s no value
Without your cries
There’s no value
Without your cries
It’s not contempt to torment
It’s bleaker than the worst you feared
Who let it happen?
Who let you think
To prey on innocents
Was ever right?
I’m gonna make you suffer
Blot out your last remaining hope
There’s no value
Without your cries
There’s no value
Without your cries
It’s not contempt to torment
It’s bleaker than the worst you feared
Jealous like the serpent
Now you're hot with contempt
When rock strikes the sides
Close your feeble fucking eyes
And taste the fruit
Now the wasp burrows deeper
Soon it’s body will be spent
Useless tears, second guessing
Now it's woven into skin
And now I'm
Jealous like the serpent
Now you're hot with contempt
When rock strikes the sides
Close your feeble fucking eyes
And taste the fruit
Now the wasp burrows deeper
Soon it’s body will be spent
Useless tears, second guessing
Now it's woven into skin
