over your shoulder
I lay to the pavement
I lap up the sunlight
a feeling to savor
it happened to cost you
what happened across you
complete lack of foresight
your love was your cancer
kept me from hollow
your lead I will follow
theres no need to panic
always around when I holler
trying to find god in the little things
hitting my head on the doorframe
swearing to fare my ego
swearing to fare my ego
better, better
calling someone you love a name
that will outlive them
calling someone you love

meeting ends, but none in sight
on my knees, on a leash
anger kept in my pocket
with a broken cigarette
and a broken dream
you just want it to end
you just want it to end
simon says to sit still,
but your heart is racing and it spills,
‘cause you’re trying your best
pushing pain through your fingernails,
your eyes can’t adjust to the light right in front of you
and all you want to do is pay your debts
make my day, would you miss?
are they yours? they’re beautiful kids
I can’t even remember
what it’s like to play
with no bills to reimburse
you just want it to end
you just want it to end

fern

|

she grows with the flowers
she goes with the wind
she’s getting so tired
of feeling locked in
and fern
set fire to the forest
to plant her own garden
so sick of pretending
she keeps her knives sharpened
she grows with the flowers
she goes with the wind
she’s getting so tired
of feeling locked in
everyone around her watched her fall
scraping knees

when the telephone rings nightmares
hang up if you could
if you’re always on the outside
it’s easy to conjure
they look like they would
you’ve got to be kidding me (x4)

the cynic
03:34
|
|||
all I see is you
all I feel is your bruise
all I need is an excuse
all I want is all I can get
stay inside
blame the tide
closing the door
why's it so slight
to swallow your pride?
and you're comfortable
stay inside
blame the tide
closing the door
it started with you

bruised peach

you try
and I can only listen
but I will listen
and I’ll hear
and you’ll cry
and I’ll think
and you’ll try
so lets stop
lets be
humans ‘cause humans bleed
it’s your human need
you’ve lost
I’ve found
you’re on the ground
you’re on the ground
you can be
you can fly
and I’ll try
I’ll try

hairsplitting
05:51
|

sidestepping the cracks in the pavement you
couldn’t be bothered by anyway
slowly stirring the pot in hopes
something good will
come down, I need you to hear me
it takes two to tango and only one to
sleepwalk, every time I’m with you
there seems to be an issue
there seems to be an issue
I’d like to discontinue
I’ve been waiting my whole life for you
I’ve been waiting my whole life for you
(why can’t I see to your truths)
everything I want
is nothing that I need
fall apart, fall apart
everything I want is not the life I lead
a bad apology
headfirst to the wall

downpour
04:24
|
|||
she leans over and under her breath
I feel a storm in the air,
‘cause the wind is so calm,
is so calm
holding hands we head for the exit
but stopped in awe
the darkest clouds that night overcame us
we sheltered by the lip of the gutter
rain cascading, I spill my guts
I said I wouldn’t mind if I die here
said I wouldn’t mind if I die here
I love you if that wasn’t implied dear
we can’t stay here
we can’t stay here

far from the tree
04:44
|
|||
I know
what I don’t
I hide
behind
my hopes
your rope
I can’t let go of
always a part of me
maybe I owe
an apology
so far from the tree the apple falls
making sound, making sense of an absent hollow home
carrying the weight of the world in a memory
why’s your life so full of secrets?
in time
the colors fade
the blood is stained
to the fabric of my youth
and in my bones
I feel alone
when you’re right beside me
it’s hard to cope
