[Intro]

"LA, I wrote this song when I was 17 years old"

"In my bedroom in Jakarta"

"And I get to play it to now, at 23"

"At a sold at show at the Wiltern show"

"In Los Angeles California, thank you so much"

"It's all truly all because of you"

[Verse 1]

If I could, I'd freeze this moment, make it my home

You're all I want to want to know

I can tell, you mean it when you kiss me slow

But please, don't ask me, the answer's no

In a perfect world, I'd kill to love you the loudest

But all I do is live to hurt you soundless

Say, "You see I'm lying, babe" and let this go

I can never promise you tomorrow

[Pre-Chorus 1]

'Cause I have yet to learn

How not to be his

This city will surеly burn

If we keep this as it is

[Chorus 1]

But I'd give anything to stop time

And drivе around Anaheim at sundown

To teach my mind to put you first

Here you are, a hero

You wanna be my new home

But baby, let up, I won't ever recognize these roads

'Cause I am lost, but not in you

Yes, I am lost, but not in you

[Verse 2]

I could spend my days studying your laugh's melody

And I can't live with myself 'cause I know you'd die for me

Oh, all I ask of you is please don't sleep

On this bed of promises I can't keep

[Pre-Chorus 2]

'Cause I have yet to know

How to be mine

You can try to unearth this soul

I swear you'll hate what you find

(Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-ooh-oh)

(Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-ooh-oh)

(Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-ooh-oh)

[Chorus 2]

But I'd give anything to stop time

Commit to you and not crimes against the truth

And lose sight of every divide threatening to undo this story

But baby, I'm so sorry

I don't think that I'll ever memorize this route

'Cause I am lost, but not in you

Yes, I am lost, but not in you

(Oh-oh, oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh, oh-oh)

[Outro]

(I love you NIKI)

"I love you too"

"Alright this is my little piano moment"

"Um, have you guys every seen this movie 'Everything everywhere all at once'? (Yes), um, iconic

"Seeing that movie really, (chuckles) made me understand that I am a little bit obsessed with concept of the multiverse"

"And, sorta just this idea, that uh, there's a life out there you've never really live"

"Um, so I wrote a song about that and it's called 'The Apartment We Won't Share'"
