scared 06:00
come july how'd it happen? take your time see what's out there for a while imagination look inside pretend to like it and all you need is all you need tell a lie keep up from downstream stay inside hope for a landslide and find some meaning now you're scared there's something out there coming for you.
2.
anything 04:35
as you find yourself scrolling through time floating softly on pieces of better lives play a song for yourself keep it inside write below how much you wanna die i thought i could break out i thought if i could just try harder i could be anything at all.
3.
hollow 04:08
seething frozen still with your sleeves rolled back take on when you feel left out holding still a stone in your heart so long with your hand on my back will you let light in? thin ice on a hollow frame lift you up i'm falling like rain mirror how deep are your lies will my teeth fall out someday i have no doubt speak too soon i'm fleeing again so long this place that we know did it feel so long cold grip and your favourite song we came so close but i'm not coming back.
4.
untied 03:06
floating down the creek lying about where your disposition hides (maybe i'll float away this time) hold fast as the notion takes your eye (will this one be who you'd rather be?) took a turn just to fuck you out and thought of all the places you'd rather be (it helps to close your eyes) woke up with your hands untied and thought i hope my wits don't fail me now (for once she'd like to know) just for once she's like to know.
5.
drown 04:00
lay down easy breathe out breathe in don't lean on me i'll only let you down take up my place while i'm fading away when will we see how much this could take when will you know you are all there is but we all fell down tumbled in and drowned tangled up and bound while we all wait around (you had it all what good is all we had it all and still we fall) we all fell down tumbled in and drowned tangled up and bound
6.
perfect 04:12
deep treading water in cortisol, wine make a note of my failures to help pass the time wait 2 more weeks and i'll be alright i might put my head under now if you don't mind take a picture of all of the things that i own starving myself til i look good in my clothes pretend long enough and i'll fall asleep pretend long enough will i get what i need a mark on my calendar broke by design push it away until some other time come up for air lift my head off the floor i swear i'll be perfect from here ever more
7.
hope 04:20
i hope no-one ever treats you the way you treat yourself i hope no-one ever sees you the way you see yourself i hope no-one every speaks to you the way you speak to yourself i hope no-one ever treats you the way you treat yourself
8.
everything 04:22
all alone where you can see your real self paranoid when you see someone else change your mind from looking out the window change your name every time the wind blows but everything isn't anything leave yourself go on everything isn't anything soon enough but long enough that you forgot keeping up matters less when you are gone if you made it in you're halfway to the real thing read about the things that you can't live without i just can't fight it off anymore.
