BILLIE finished the harmonies for Ocean Eyes and sent it to her brother, Finneas.

Fin

Me
Finneas, I finished Ocean Eyes, even though it took me a few weeks. I quite like it.

Got it

Billie put her phone down and started to write about the night before.

What is it about them?
I must be missing something
They just keep doing nothing
Too intoxicated to be scared
Better off without them
Their nothing but unstable
Bring ashtrays to the table
And that's about the only thing they share

Billie wrote down a verse and figured out the beat before giving up. She looked at the time, 12:48. She groaned because she had only wrote a verse in almost 3 hours.

"Fuck me." Billie muffled. She had had enough of writing, so she recorded a different song. A song her an Finneas wrote before he left.

Don't be cautious, don't be kind
You committed, I'm your crime
Push my button anytime
You got your finger on the trigger
But your trigger finger's mine

Silver dollar, golden flame
Dirty water, poison rain
Perfect murder, take your aim
I don't belong to anyone
But everybody knows my name

By the way, you've been uninvited
'Cause all you say, are all the same things I did

Copycat tryna cop my manner
Watch your back when you can't watch mine
Copycat tryna cop my glamor
Why so sad, bunny? Can't have mine

Call me calloused, call me cold
You're italic, I'm in bold
Call me cocky, watch your tone
You better love me, 'cause you're just a clone

By the way, you've been uninvited
'Cause all you say are all the same things I did

Copycat tryna cop my manner
Watch your back when you can't watch mine
Copycat tryna cop my glamor
Why so sad, bunny? Can't have mine

Mine
I would hate to see you go
Hate to be the one that told you so
You just crossed the line
You've run out of time
I'm so sorry, now you know
Sorry I'm the one that told you so
Sorry, sorry, I'm sorry, sorry
Psych

By the way, you've been uninvited
'Cause all you say are all the same things I did

Copycat tryna cop my manner
Watch your back when you can't watch mine
Copycat tryna cop my glamor
Why so sad, bunny? Can't have mine
