I just don't know what to do
I'm fine, but feel I'm breaking through
No walls of honey shade of blue
I'm crying, wish I wasn't hanging on
But I know we won't mess for long
It was coming all along

Drunk
I wander off
And I'll be (?)
Oh, but it's so cold
And I give up
I feel love
Right down to my toes
And I see stuff that never, ever, ever looked this right
Feel it on your skin, I never felt this right
Tell me (?)
Baby, someone hold me down
I'm drunk but not drinking
Lost in wishful thinking
'Round and 'round and 'round it goes
I can hear them whispering
Call, but I'm not listening
Oh, and where it goes
Is somewhere no one knows
Ooh, oh
On the run
Not enough
Oh, but it's so loud
You hold your tongue
But one by one
The words slip out your mouth
And I see stars that never, ever, ever looked this bright to me
Feeling on your skin never felt this right to me
Holy roller, come on baby
Someone hold me down
I'm drunk but not drinking
Lost in wishful thinking
And 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round it goes
I can hear them whispering
Call, but I'm not listening
Oh, and where it goes
Is somewhere no one knows
If you leave
And your mother's gonna tell me it's no right
You can take it way, it goes on and on
And on and on and on and on and on
I'm drunk but not drinking
Lost in wishful thinking
'Round and 'round and 'round it goes
I can hear them whispering
Call, but I'm not listening
Oh, and where it goes
Is somewhere no one knows
Oh, and where it goes
Is somewhere no one knows
Somewhere no one knows
And I'll be (?)
Oh, but it's so cold
And I give up
I feel love
Right down to my toes
And I see stuff that never, ever, ever looked this right
Feel it on your skin, I never felt this right
Tell me (?)
Baby, someone hold me down
I'm drunk but not drinking
Lost in wishful thinking
'Round and 'round and 'round it goes
I can hear them whispering
Call, but I'm not listening
Oh, and where it goes
Is somewhere no one knows
Ooh, oh
On the run
Not enough
Oh, but it's so loud
You hold your tongue
But one by one
The words slip out your mouth
And I see stars that never, ever, ever looked this bright to me
Feeling on your skin never felt this right to me
Holy roller, come on baby
Someone hold me down
I'm drunk but not drinking

So Sick of Dreaming
So you think you're on the right track
Cruising on the bridge in your gray Cadillac
You think it's easy
Walking on the water like there's steppin' stones
But when every little thing's up for takin'
Oh, it makes me want to sing, my heart's breakin'
Oh, there ain't no diamond ring you could buy me to take me home
Oh, 'cause I'm (ooh-whoa)
So sick of dreamin' (ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa)
Oh, and I'm
All that I'm needin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, you think you've seen it all
Walkin' 'round the city with the sun at your back
You think you're so cool
'Cause everybody knows you, but what's so good about that?
When every little thing's up for takin'
Oh, it makes me wanna sing, my heart's breakin'
Oh, there ain't no diamond ring you could buy me to take me home
Oh, 'cause I'm (ooh-whoa)
So sick of dreamin' (ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa)
Oh, and I'm
All that I'm needin' (ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa)
If you think that life without me's like a heart attack
Take a long look in the mirror and be good with that
Oh, 'cause I'm (ooh-whoa)
So sick of dreamin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah
So he calls me up fifteen minutes before the reservation
And says he's got Knicks tickets instead
I mean, I was at the restaurant
So I took the steaks to go, I had two martinis at the bar
And went to meet my friends down the street
What a loser (I'm so sick of dreamin')
And by the way, the Knicks lost
Oh, and I-I-I
And I'm (ooh-whoa)
So sick of dreamin' (ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa)
And I'm
All that I'm needin' (ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa)

The Kill
One of these days, I'm gonna wake up smiling
One of these days, I'm gonna cry
When all of the years start to blend in together
I watch them disappear in your eyes
Remember the days we used to drive upstate
Singing indie rock songs in the car
You wore your fresh leather and blamed it on the weather
For being the reason you were
So difficult, but so invincible
Irresistible, but I loved you still
You kept my secrets and stole my weaknesses
In your white T-shirts, but I couldn't fill
The shoes you laid down for me from the girls that came before
I was all the way in, you were halfway out the door
Oh, I was an animal making my way up the hill
And you were going in for the kill
And you were going in for the kill
One of these days, I'm gonna wake up fresh
And wipe all the past from my eyes
Curl up next to you in tall grass, sunshine
And wrap my body's shape 'round your side
Remember the days we used to ideate
About what we would do all our lives
I'd be a singer and an old bourbon drinker
Oh, and we'd have a band on the side
Oh, I know I was so difficult, but so invincible
Irresistible, but you loved me still
I kept your secrets and stole your weaknesses
In your white T-shirts, but I couldn't fill
The shoes I laid down for you from the guys that came before
You were all the way in, I was halfway out the door
Oh, I was an animal making my way up the hill
And I was going in for the kill
Oh, all of our lives
Was it worth it?
Ooh, we were just wasting time
'Cause we were hurting
But I know that you know that I know you best
And I know that we both could forget about all the rest
If we both can
Admit that
We both were so difficult, but so invincible
Irresistible, but I loved you still
You kept my secrets and stole my weaknesses
In your white T-shirts, but I couldn't fill
The shoes you laid down for me from the ones that came before
I was all the way in, you were halfway out the door
Oh, you were an animal making your way up the hill
And you were going in for the kill
Oh, I was going in for the kill
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh
Oh, we were going in for the kill
One of these days, I'm gonna cry
When all of the years start to blend in together

If Now Was Then
Standing on the edge of our old corner on Broadway
Passed a couple kids and, oh, it felt like yesterday
We were holding hands and walking right down 15th Street
The wind was in my hair and you had that red flush in your cheeks, oh
And I know you find it funny, ooh
But I can't seem to let it go
I keep wishing there was something to do
Oh, don't you?
But if now was then, I would get out of my head
I would touch your chest, I would break the bed
I would say the things that I never said
Oh, the things I'd do, oh, if now was then
But you can't take it back
But you can't take it back
When Anna threw that party, I remember seeing you
It'd been a couple years and we locked eyes across the room
You were with your new girl, oh, and I had brought a guy
That I knew back in high school, but was so empty inside, oh
And I know you find it funny, ooh
But I can't seem to let it go
I keep wishing there was something to do
Oh, don't you?
'Cause if now was then, I would get out of my head
I would touch your chest, I would break the bed
I would say the things that I never said
Oh, the things I'd do, oh, if now was then
But you can't take it back
But you can't take it back
Ooh, but you can't take it back
No, you can't take it back
I'd take it back, but I can't, I'm sorry
Know it hurts, but you shouldn't worry
I'd take it back, but I can't, I'm sorry
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I'd take it back, but I can't I'm sorry
Know it hurts, but you shouldn't worry
I'd take it back, but I can't, I'm sorry
I'm sorry, I'm sorry

I Still Do
Darling, my dear, I know we've had a good thing going
Darling, I fear it's time for us to do some growing
And how far do you bend
Before you break it all away?
And how long can you wait?
'Cause love is not a debt you pay
It's not something you can give away
Love is not the final straw
But it's always a reason to risk it all, oh, it's true
At least the way that I loved you
Oh, and I still do
And for all of the times we knew that there was something coming
Well, darling, my dear, I'm worried that we're both just running now
And how far can you bend
Before you break it all someday?
And how long can you wait?
'Cause love is not a debt you pay
It's not something you can give away
Love is not the final straw
But it's always a reason to risk it all, oh, it's true
At least the way that I loved you
That I loved you
That I loved you, ooh
Oh, and I still do
Darling, I fear it's time for us to do some growing
And how far do you bend
Before you break it all away?
And how long can you wait?
'Cause love is not a debt you pay
It's not something you can give away
Love is not the final straw
But it's always a reason to risk it all, oh, it's true
At least the way that I loved you
Oh, and I still do
And for all of the times we knew that there was something coming
Well, darling, my dear, I'm worried that we're both just running now
And how far can you bend

On & On & On
Started back a year ago
And on my eyes, we're close to younger
You're understated, overrated
You were making space for your hunger
You celebrated all your ways
Oh, I should've heard the thunder
But all that time you dedicated
It was just a waste of your anger
And it goes on and on and on when you hear this song
And it plays on and on and on and on all along
When you realize the things that you lack
Better think twice 'fore callin' me back
'Cause it goes on and on and on
On and on and on
On and on and on
On and on and on
One day, you'll be lookin' back
And maybe wish that you were kinder
But ain't it always just the truth
Oh, that hindsight makes you softer?
I've played it back a million times
And always wish that I was wiser
But I'll be comin' back to bite you like a dog
You know you better run for cover
'Cause it goes on and on and on when you hear this song
And it plays on and on and on and on all along
When you realize the things that you lack
Better think twice 'fore callin' me back
It goes on and on and on
On and on and on
It goes on and on and on when you hear this song
And it plays on and on and on and on all along
When you realize the things that you lack
Better think twice 'fore callin' me back
It goes on and on and on
On and on and on

Never Going Home
Smooth out the lines on my face in the mirror
And think about where I'm gonna go
Put on my red lipstick like (?)
There's old music playing, I can hear my friends saying
"There's ten seconds 'til it's time to go"
So I put on those old heeled boots, they've been waiting
At the bottom of the closet alone
I can't behave, but I don't wanna be alone
But you kept me waiting
Now I'm never, ever going home, never going home
Never going home
Walk in and the world starts turning
I can't help looking for you at the bar
Catch a glimpse of someone with kind eyes, dancing
Whose jacket's the same color as the seats in your car
There's old music playing, I can hear my friend saying
"You know it's time to go, go, go, go, go"
Can you jump off a cliff? Find out that you can handle it
And time's got a way of letting you know
I can't behave, but I don't wanna be alone
But you kept me waiting
Now I'm never, ever going home, never going
I can't believe that you'd rather be on your own
But you kept me waiting
Now I'm never, ever going home, never going
I'm never going
I'm never going home
You get to talking, but those lips aren't your lips
We lean together, those hips aren't your hips
When we are out in the back and I'm catching my breath
I close my eyes to forget all the rest, oh
I can't behave, but I don't wanna be alone
'Cause you kept me waiting
Now I'm never, ever going home, never going
I can't believe that you'd rather be on your own
'Cause you kept me waiting
Now I'm never, ever going home, never going home
Never, ever going home, never going home
Never, ever going home, never going home
And think about where I'm gonna go
Put on my red lipstick like (?)
There's old music playing, I can hear my friends saying
"There's ten seconds 'til it's time to go"

All the Same
So it goes
Time moves slow
Until one day, you wake up and you realize
That what you see is what you know
And still you wish for one more kiss
A moment's bliss from a lover you've always known
So it goes
Won't you wait
One more day
Give me the chance to wake in a full romance
Just knowing that you chose to stay
If only just to keep on hoping
Maybe even knowing there's another way
Won't you wait
Time moves slow
Until one day, you wake up and you realize
That what you see is what you know
And still you wish for one more kiss
A moment's bliss from a lover you've always known
So it goes
Won't you wait
One more day
Give me the chance to wake in a full romance
Just knowing that you chose to stay
If only just to keep on hoping
Maybe even knowing there's another way
Won't you wait

Dont Forget Me
My friend Sally's getting married
And to me that sounds so scary
I'm still tryin' to clean up my side of the street
Can't imagine what would happen
'Cause I'm still acting out of habit
Hoping dirty words just don't escape my teeth
Oh, but every time I try just a little
Promise that I'll meet in the middle
Always find my way back to my feet
So close the door and change the channel
Give me something I can handle
A good lover or someone who's nice to me
Take my money, wreck my Sundays
Love me 'til your next somebody
Oh, but promise me that when it's time to leave
Don't forget me
Don't forget me
My friend Molly's got a guy, she
Swears to God could be her family
Says he's got the greenest eyes you've ever seen
But it's crazy all the the days she spends
Just following him to parties
She seems happy, oh, but that's not love to me
Oh, but every time I try just a little
Promise that I'll meet in the middle
I always find my way back to my feet
So close the door and change the channel
Give me something I can handle
A good lover or someone who's nice to me
Take my money, wreck my Sundays
Love me 'til your next somebody
Oh, and promise me that when it's time to leave
Don't forget me
Don't forget me
And maybe I'm dead wrong
Maybe I was bitter from the winter all along
Maybe there's a stranger standing, holding out
For love, just waiting on the next street
Just for me
Oh, just for me
So close the door and change the channel
Give me something I can handle
A good lover, someone who's nice to me
Take my money, wreck my Sundays
Love me 'til your next somebody
Oh, but promise me that when it's time to leave
Oh, won't you promise me that when it's time to leave
Don't forget me
Don't forget me
And to me that sounds so scary
I'm still tryin' to clean up my side of the street
Can't imagine what would happen

Rogers first performed songs from the record at tour stops on her 2023 tour supporting her second studio album Surrender (2022). Rogers co-produced the album herself with additional assistance from Ian Fitchuk at the Electric Lady Studios in New York City.
The singer-songwriter wrote eight of the ten songs with Fitchuk, while two are entirely self-penned. In a letter, she announced her goal to have been the creation of a record that was akin to a "Sunday afternoon".
On January 1, 2024, she previewed a snippet of a song titled "Don't Forget Me" with a caption saying "see you in 2024". The eponymous lead single was then released alongside the album announcement on February 8, 2024.
To Rogers, the song signifies a "rough journal entry" about attending festivities from friends while she craves "simple baselines" and finds herself "in a different place in [her] life".
