Daydream
03:34
|
|||
been having the same dream where i burn away
all that i have in hopes of better days
stuck in the past wishing i stayed instead
and then i wake up and i'm alone again
what a terrible fate
what a horrible way to be
getting lost in the days
that you haven't spent and now they're gone
will you notice when i'm gone?
well if gods in heaven, then why'd they take out everything you believe?
this all feels so different, felt something push until you couldn't breathe anymore
look at your life, and how you'll never know
now there's no time, they'll take you anyway

Think About the Desert
04:36

hold my hand, let it go now. just don't try to pretend
can feel my head pulling me down, i'll count backwards from ten
it’s getting late- should really go back to the room where it ends
and sleep all day in the back room, you won't see me again
I don't want to hurt you, I don't want to hurt you, but I don't want to lie. I don't want to hurt you, but I just can't think about it this time
hold me close, push you under. it turns into routine
of constantly questioning the uncertainty that I feel
at times I see, I see it in me. it comes and goes like a dream
i'll spend the day, get lost in the ceiling, arms open wide and i'll sing:
“Hold on, hold on” it's hard to see with the light right in my eye, I lost my way again, it's getting harder to breathe
I don't wanna hurt you I don't wanna hurt you, but I don't want to lie I don't want to hurt you, but I just can't think about it this time
and every single night it feels like I just cant get this out of my mind
I wonder when I'm gone, I want you to miss me

Sour

tell me what to say when you start running out of space
i'll do what you want so i won't get much in the way
seems like your face keeps changing, coming in and out of shape
you're not what you think and ill pretend it's all the same
hold me close and tight while i'm shaking
look me in my eyes as i'm bleeding
i know something's coming, can feel it breathing down my neck
i'll look if i have to, i won't ever speak again
oh, think i'll come down
oh, if that's all right
i'll stay here everyday
hold me close and tight while i'm shaking
look me in my eyes as i'm bleeding
i don't want to be another name

Only Human
02:11
|
|||
fill up my head
with all those big words again
time has been a wasting
get in the blank spots in my mind
point out the best
things that i said to you
hold them real close now
peel off the dead skin in my mouth
forgot what you said, just thinking out loud
forgot what a mess i've been all along
i can't wait to see you there
blood in my lungs, dirt in your hair
just keep telling me
that i made you proud from down here

River
05:54
|
|||
be my firefly
keep me up, keep it down, keep me safe at night
i won't try to find out how to float, how to breathe, how to see between
because one day i'll get back to that place where we started, far beyond our view
it's not so safe inside,
been looking out, staring up, waiting for a sign
before we lose the light out
but i can't leave, can't pretend like i do anything right
(when i float away)
i lost track of myself again this year
(i won't find a thing)
keeps sticking to the past and i can't take it back
(when i float away)
and each night It follows me home
(i won't find a thing)
and eats away until i'm gone
and i wish that you would let this go, oh i'll down to the river and i'll try
to wash this off my back
and i wish that you would let this go, oh i'll fall down in the water and i'll try to savor one last breath
oh i wish you wouldn't let me go

Book Burning
03:14
|
|||
it's hard to keep running away from the fires i leave behind that cloud the air
please sit here and wait for the morning and watch me disappear again
can you hear me from way up there?
can you see i'm trying to move on?
it's too late to mend relations, and ill make the same mistakes i made before. the sun is slowly falling, so light a match to last the night
can you hear me from way up there?
can you see i'm trying to move on?
i know they'll take me away from here
and before i go i'll burn all that i know out in the backyard

In the Back
01:58
|
|||
woke up in the back, a feeling stuck in my head
started digging that hole and laying stones in my bed
i could here them calling like the old man said
from somewhere behind they started singing again
and i still hear them saying:
"oh my, my; oh my god.
oh my, my, where have you gone to?"

an Earthquake
01:48
|
|||
i am spitting up
all of us
and who i think i am
who i thought i was
just say it
it's in my-
just say it
-i can't get it out
how can i try to find my light in heaven while i'm burning? how can i try to find my reason for staying? it's underground.

Fall Down
03:25
|
|||
what's the worst thing that could happen to you?
keep those hands held tight while we go towards the light
what's the worst thing they could say about you?
it's all the same because you are what you ask for
because we all fall down
you can just try to pretend
that we all fall down
everything comes to an end
what's the last thing you remember from when
you could feel the warmth coming off from the sky?
was it hard when they forgot what to say?
it's all the same, you still are who you were then
i can't see what's right, but i'll try-
because we all fall down
you can just try to pretend
that we all fall down
everything comes to an end
and we all fall down
even when it all makes sense
yeah we all fall down
everything comes to an end
and all i know, is that you stayed
so what's the point if you came late?

Sheol
03:36
|

will somebody close my eyes, so i can't see
all those faces placing flowers around my feet?
will they take me to the place where my family keeps
secrets hidden under stones they gathered every year?
will i know if i'm awake or if i'm asleep?
is there someone i should look for before i leave?
will i be torn apart or swept underneath
for what i've said and done when i used my lungs to breathe?
if i could i would sink back into
your womb and left to rot
where you decided every move to make
and everything i thought
i can't wait to get there
