Track Lyrics
$20 Lyrics
[Verse 1: Baker, Baker & Bridgers, All]
It's a bad idea and I'm all about it
Give it one more chance and
Then I finally had it
When you wake up, I'll be gone again
Motorcycle in the front lawn
[Verse 2: Baker, Baker & Dacus, Baker & Bridgers, All]
It's an all-nightâdriveâfromâyour house toâReno
To the T-birdâgraveyard where we play with fire
In another life, we were arsonists
How long's the Chevy been on cinder blocks?
[Bridge: Baker, All]
Mama told me that it don't run on wishes
But that I should have fun
Pushing the flowers that come up
Into the front of a shotgun
So many hills to die on
[Chorus: Baker, Dacus, Bridgers]
Run out of gas, out of time, out of money
You're doing what you can, just makin' it run
(Take a break, make your escape)
Gas, out of time, out of money
You're doing what you can, just makin' it run
(There's only so much I can)
(Take a break, make your escape)
(May I please have twenty dollars?)
Gas, out of time, out of money
You're doing what you can, just makin' it run
(There's only so much I can)
(Take a break, make your escape)
(Can you give me twenty dollars?)
Gas, out of time, out of money
You're doing what you can, just makin' it run
(There's only so much I can)
(Take a break, make your escape)
Gas, out of time, out of money
You're doing what you can, just makin' it run
(There's only so much I can)
(Take a break, make your escape)
(I know you have twenty dollars)
(I know you have twenty dollars)
[Outro: Baker]
Wait on me, I'm not ready
I still have to change, have to change, have to change
Wait on me, I'm not ready
I still have to change, have to change, have to
Emily Iâm Sorry Lyrics
[Verse 1: Bridgers]
She's asleep in the back seat
Looking peaceful enough to me
But she's wakin' up inside a dream
Full of screeching tires and fire
We're comin' back from where no one lives
Pretty much just veterans
When I pointed out where the North Star is
She called me a fuckin' liar
[Chorus: Bridgers, Dacus & Baker, Bridgers & Dacus, All]
Emily, I'm sorry, I just (Emily, I)
Make it up as I go along
And I can feel myself becoming (I can feel)
Someone only you could want
[Verse 2: Bridgers]
Headed straight for the concrete
In a nightmare, screaming
Now I'm wide awake, spiraling
And you don't wanna talk
Just take me back to Montreal
I'll get a real job, you'll go back to school
We can burn out in the freezing cold
And just get lost
[Chorus: Bridgers, Dacus & Baker, Bridgers & Dacus, All]
Emily, I'm sorry, baby (Emily, I)
You know how I get when I'm wrong (You know how I get)
And I can feel myself becoming (I can feel)
Somebody I'm not, I'm not, so
Emily, forgive me, can we (Emily, I)
Make it up as we go along?
I'm twenty-seven and I don't know who I am (Don't know who I am)
But I know what I want
[Outro: Bridgers]
Emily, I'm sorry
Emily, I'm sorry
I'm sorry
True Blue Lyrics
[Verse 1: Dacus, Dacus & Baker]
You said you wanted to feel alive
So we went to the beach
You were born in July '95
In a deadly heat
You say you're a winter bitch
But summer's in your blood
You can't help but become the sun
[Verse 2: Dacus, Dacus & Baker, All]
When you moved to Chicago
You were spinnin' out
When you don't know who you are
You fuck around and find out
When you called me from the train
Water freezin' in your eyes
You were happy and I wasn't surprised
[Chorus: All]
And it feels good to be known so well
I can't hide from you like I hide from myself
[Verse 3: Dacus, All]
Now you're movin' in
Breakin' a sweat on your upper lip
And gettin' pissed about humidity
And the leaky faucet
You already hurt my feelings three times
In the way only you could
[Chorus: All]
But it feels good to be known so well
I can't hide from you like I hide from myself
I remember who I am when I'm with you
Your love is tough, your love is tried and true-blue
Blue
[Bridge: Dacus & Bridgers, All, Dacus]
You've never done me wrong, except for that one time
That we don't talk about
Because it doesn't matter anymore
Who won the fight? I don't know
We're not keeping score
[Chorus: All]
And it feels good to be known so well
I can't hide from you like I hide from myself
I remember who I am when I'm with you
Your love is tough, your love is tried and true-blue
[Outro: All]
Blue
Blue

Revolution 0 Lyrics
[Intro: Bridgers]
Mm, mm, mm, mm
[Verse 1: Bridgers]
Imaginary friend, you live up in my head
So I've been making music
Since you told me to do it
I just wanna know who broke your nose
Figure out where theyâlive
SoâIâcan kick theirâteeth in
[Chorus: All]
If itâisnât love
Then what the fuck is it?
I guess just let me pretend
[Verse 2: Bridgers]
I don't wanna die, that's a lie
But Iâm afraid to get sick
I don't know what that is
You wanted a song
So it's gonna be a short one
Wish I wasn't so tired, but I'm tired
[Chorus: All]
If you're not enough
Then I give up
And then, nothing is
[Bridge: All]
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Ah, ah, ah, ah
[Outro: Bridgers, Baker]
I used to think
If I just closed my eyes
I'd disappear
(There's absolutДly nothing going on)
(Okay)
Satanist Lyrics
[Verse 1: Baker, All]
Will you be a Satanist with me?
Mortgage off your soul to buy your dream
Vacation home in Florida
The collateral the Devil's repossessin' from me
Tryin' to score some off-brand ecstasy
[Verse 2: Bridgers, All]
Will you be an anarchist with me?
Sleep in cars and kill the bourgeoisie
At least until you find out what a fake I am
Spray paint my initials on an ATM
I burn my cash and smash my old TV
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3: Dacus, All, Bridgers]
Will you be a nihilist with me?
If nothin' matters, man, that's a relief
Solomon had a point when he wrote "Ecclesiastes"
If nothing can be known, then stupidity is holy
If the void becomes a bore, we'll treat ourselves to some self-belief
(Oh, you know what I should do?)
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro: All]
You wonder
If you can even be seen
From so far away
A slow pull
A seismic drift
Leaning over the edge of the continent
It's so hard to come back
You hang on
Until it drags
You under, you under
You under, you under
Letter to an Old Poet Lyrics
[Verse: Phoebe Bridgers]
I said, "I think that you're special"
You told me once that I'm selfish
And I kissedâ
youâ
hard
In the dark,â
in the closet
You said my musicâ
is mellow
Maybe I'm just exhausted
You think you're a good person
Because you won't punch me in the stomach
[Pre-Chorus: Phoebe Bridgers, All]
And I love you
I don't know why
I just do, ooh, but
[Chorus: All]
You're not special, you're evil
You don't get to tell me to calm down
You made me feel like an equal
But I'm better than you
And you should know that by now
When you fell down the stairs
It looked like it hurt and I wasn't sorry
I shoulda left you right there
With your hostages, my heart and my car keys
You don't know me
[Bridge: All]
I wanna be happy
I'm ready to walk into my room without lookin' for you
I'll go up to the top of our building
And remember my dog when I see the full moon
[Outro: All]
I can't feel it yet
But I am waiting
