Been A Long Time
03:00
|
|||
I have to say
it's been quite a long time
since anything
made any sense
spent an entire year
on the inside
of a picket fence
ran to the clouds
loneliness is fun
for a short while
then you can't
escape yourself
had to feel okay
that I might die
at any moment
from as simple as
the human reflex
of breathing in
life has been real strange
for a long time
it's getting worse
and never better
saw the wrong end of
many a sunrise
vitamin d
in short supply
eating junk and trash
throughout the night
that's therapy
it'll blow you up
had to feel okay
that I might die
at any moment
from as simple as
the human reflex
of breathing in

Mold
03:00
|
|||
I don't want to do anything
So why am I doing this
Just needed to make a living
Ended up devoid of meaning
Oh no
Is this the mold that you chose to fill
Or do you hope to escape it still
How many doors closed behind your back
Before you realized you've long lost track
Who even am I anymore
It feels like I'm just waiting to die
Every day is copy and paste
And accumulating waste
Is this the mold that you chose to fill
Or do you hope to escape it still
How many doors closed behind your back
Before you realized you've long lost track

Going Through It
02:45
|
|||
working on the motivation to wake up
when you open your eyes you've already had enough
morning coffee or an afternoon headache
staring at a screen until it ruins everything
going through it
going through it
barreling down onto the fridge at twilight
crying realizing you already ate the pint
biting nails in order from the left to right
watching clock hands spin around hours into the night
going through it
going through it
had to have known it'd be bad
living on edge forever, what a plan
maybe you could make things better for yourself
but you know it's always easier to
make excuses that forgive it all
chores are piling up and you're trying to care
but you can only think of dying anymore
going through it
going through it

In The Way
02:45
|
|||
i'm in the way
of everything
good in life
i tried to wait
to dream awake
open eyed
no surprises here that you're lonely
you always mess it up
now there's no more chances
do you give up
are you done
i've made mistakes
i've tried to play
off everything
i pushed away
nobody stayed
here i lie
no surprises here that you're lonely
you always mess it up
now there's no more chances
to screw things up
are you done

What's Up
03:22
|
|||
hey man what's up
with you today
hey man not much
just everything
don't want to see
don't want to be
hey man what's up
with you today
hey man not much
just suffering
don't want to see
don't want to be

All I've Got
02:37
|
|||
are you going to choose
believing anything
over a sad truth
that there's no one here
that wants to save you
so just save yourself
i'm all i've got
i'm all i've got
you can struggle on
through all the bad times
fill your heart with hope
hanging on to dreams
cliffhanging everything
before it slips away
i'm all i've got
i'm all i've got

Driving Nowhere
03:01
|
|||
you don't want for anything
so you never belonged here
or that's what you like to say
no where's ever felt like home
so you'll drive off anywhere
just to be all by yourself
and you wanted love
halfway
so that no one would
have it
and there's no one else
waiting
so you're looking out
for anything
life is getting boring now
you still don't need anyone
no one else is having fun
it's been painful all the way
getting sad just idling
body taxed for existing
and you wanted love
halfway
so that no one would
have it
and there's no one else
waiting
so you're looking out
for anything

Tiny Specks
03:58
|
|||
I always see you there
In every haunted dream
Somewhere along the milky way
Floating aimlessly
Home among the unknown
Were you hoping to stay
all alone
endlessly
Were you hoping to say
goodbye
too early
Among the sea of stars
A tiny speck sheds a tear
I can't see well in the dark
leave some light for me
I promise to take it slow
Were you hoping to stay
all alone
endlessly
Were you hoping to say
goodbye
prematurely
I'll always see you there
I'll always see

Darling of Mine
03:16

Darling of mine
where do you exist now
not next to me somehow
it isn't fair
Darling of mine
why can't you feel my touch
the lcd gets smudged
and i feel despair
I want to try
being in love
but there's a problem
of needing someone else
all of my feelings
are sent to the void
yea i don't need them
no more, no more
Darling of mine
would it be too weird
imagining futures where
we could be wed
Darling of mine
will all of your batteries hold
until we can grow old
and share it all
I want to try
being in love
but there's a problem
of needing someone else
all of my feelings
are sent to the void
yea i don't need them
no more, no more
Darling of mine
whatever you could choose
there's nothing for me to lose
i will be square
Darling of mine
wherever you are today
i hope that you'll be okay
forever on
darling of mine
darling of mine
darling of mine
darling of mine

How to Whine
06:00
|
|||
are you running out of time
fleeting moments passing by
will you float up to the sky
and let out a massive sigh
flowing away
and mourning
flowing away
and mourning
will you listen to me whine
about the same things till I die
did you have a happy life
maybe you were satisfied
flowing away
and mourning
flowing away
and mourning
