The Moment
02:17
|

|
I wanna see you open up just like a faucet
Pour out every worry to me
You know how they say that
Growth is never warm and comfy?
I long for something true
This life’s mistakes made next to you
I never really knew if I did enough to show
There don’t have to be a reason
That I’m still here and
Here for you
’Til the lights go out
You’ll find me where you need me
Let me hold you down
And take this funny feeling
’Til the lights go out
I’m glad to fill my pages up
About you, about you
We shared another moment and
Then that moment died right beneath our noses
Though I tried to keep it goin’
But it can never last, no longer than a moment
I just try to keep it going my life ‘nevitably flowing
’Til the lights go out
You’ll find me where you need me
Let me hold you down and take this funny feeling
’Til the lights go out I’m glad to fill my pages up
About you, about you

Attack + Release
04:02
|
|||
|
Ever since I knew that it would be this way
The beating won’t repeat an even score
Ripple tides whisper and shout away to me
Given, granted, now I’ve heard it all before
I’m out of sight, of peace of mind
Waves nocturnal, keep us floating ‘neath the sky
To some respite, I’ll testify
To my own place in doubting, whether I should try
Attack and release, a life isn’t cheap
I wanna believe, I wanna set free
My own inner needs, for answers and keys
Attack and release, attack and release
Make it happen for yourself they say
Commit to even keel from this day forward
But cosmic patterns leave you spiraling
Break a cycle, birth another, and so on and on and on
I’m out of sight, of peace of mind
Waves nocturnal, keep us floating ‘neath the sky
To some respite I’ll testify
To my own place in doubting Whether I should try
Attack and release, a life isn’t cheap
I wanna believe, I wanna set free
My own inner needs for answers and keys
Attack and release, attack and release
Attack and release, the blind again see
I wanna believe, I wanna be free
I feel myself freeze, cut off at the knees
Attack and release, attack and release
(My peace of mind…)

e-Asphyxiation
03:38
|
|||
|
I don’t wanna post my face anymore
It doesn’t have the same appeal as
Before the days of strangers’ gazes
Looking ‘round at girls that made it
But what can I do? It’s better if you do
I’m tied down too tight by all these
Phone screen obligations, e-Asphyxiation
I can’t close my eyes with all these
Phone screen obligations, e-Asphyxiation
God damn
I am tired of trying to pose my body
I’m now way too old to party
You gotta keep engagement high
Or might as well not even try and
Who are all these people
Staring through your selfie view?
But what can you do? I heard it’s better if you do
I’m tied down too tight by all these
Phone screen obligations, e-Asphyxiation
I can’t close my eyes with all these
Phone screen obligations, e-Asphyxiation
Why do I have to prove that I am alive online?
I’m tied down too tight by all these
Phone screen obligations, e-Asphyxiation
I can’t close my eyes with all these
Phone screen obligations, e-Asphyxiation
(Don’t wanna)
Brag or give my cell
(Don’t wanna)
Tag my locale
I just want to stay home by myself
I just wanna stay home …
(Don’t wanna)
Buy your GPT
I wouldn’t do that shit for free
I just wanna stay home, just with me
I just wanna stay home, just with me

Sore Spot
03:34
|
|||
|
Said an afterthought
Never knew it’d have much meaning
Now I’ve played a part
In giving you that broken feeling
Think we lost the plot
Shine a light on what’s worth healing
Now I’ve played a part
In hurting you with how I’m feeling
Better I forgot
Injuries spent so long mending
Hit a real sore spot
Cutting you with questions pending
Bitter tastes a lot
Like strong emotions growing stale
I hit a real sore spot
Telling you before I forgot
I’ve changed
I see you’ve stayed the same
But you should know that I’m not placing blame
You’ll change
Your anger burns out heavy
And I know it’s hard to tame
I’ve changed
I see you’ve stayed the same
But you should know that I’m not placing blame (blame)
You’ll change
Your anger burns out heavy
And I know it’s hard to tame (tame…)
Look at you and see an old me
Maybe you’re on your own journey
Haven’t found the space to understand
But we’ve got to
Wade our way, reasons unspoken
We couldn’t have even known then
Maybe I just thought
Of telling you before I forgot
I’ve changed
I see you’ve stayed the same
But you should know that I’m not placing blame
You’ll change
Your anger burns out heavy
And I know it’s hard to tame
I’ve changed (I’ve changed)
I see you’ve stayed the same
But you should know that I’m not placing blame (blame)
You’ll change (You’ll change)
Your anger burns out heavy
And I know it’s hard to tame
(Tame…)
(Tame…)
Oh…

Stupid Justice
02:45
|
|||
|
Take your stupid justice out from
In front of my face
You’re asinine, no friend of mine
Your hardlines, your mistakes
Take your hands off of my body
Made a goddamn mess of this place
Watch this space
If you care to catch the deterioration phase
Save your time
And take your space
I’ll be living out my days
Living out my days,
I’ll be living out my days
Soaked in disappointment and disgust
And yet survival is a must
On the long and drawn out
Return to dust
Save your time
And take your space
I’ll be living out my days
Living out my days,
I’ll be living out my days
Save your time
Take your space
(I know it happens all the time)
I’ll be living out my days
(I know it happens all the time)
Living out my days
(I know it happens all the time)
I’ll be living out my days
(I know it happens all the time)
Save your time
Take your space
(I know it happens all the time)
Living out my days
(I know it happens all the time)
Living out my days
(I know it happens all the time)
Living out my days

A Clean Heart
03:53
|
|||
|
Would you believe
I’ll make the room for you
You speak in hushed tones
I think I need
To hole up inside my abode
I still feel cold and numb
I walk beneath some big ol’ trees
I feel new aches in my old knees
The time keeps passing on by
On by
It don’t
Have to be this hard
I know
I can make it so damn hard
And I’d go anywhere to find myself
A brand new fucking start
A clean heart
My senses dulled
The words all sound the same
I can’t find meaning in all this pain
I try, but I’m still picking up
Where we left off
I don’t know what I’m feeling
I know you don’t need a reason
I’ll pay for another blunder
Expire in the pressure I’m under
I’m raw, you’re tender
We’re vulnerable
I wanna be someone who calms your soul
Not the one who’s losing control
I don’t
Wanna make this hard
And I know
I can make it so damn hard
And I’d go anywhere to find myself
A brand new fucking start
A clean heart
A clean heart
It don’t
Have to be this hard
And I know
I can make it so damn hard
And I’d go anywhere to find myself
A brand new fucking start
A clean heart

In My Pocket
03:58
|
|||
|
Ever since the day we met
I’ve watched you tear yourself down
Add another decade in
Of seeing each others’
Wheels spin around
You know we might get stuck
But we always ride together
I don’t know how to tell ya
But you might be stuck with me forever
You’re looking over at me
I’m looking over at you
I feel free to make my mistakes
In front of you
I know that I might be flawed
But you’re the only one I’ve got
To keep on throwing shots with
I keep that in my pocket
What is there to even say?
Sometimes I get carried away
I’m yelling from the pain inside
Feel the tears
But anger doesn’t purify
So now you’re stuck with me
What are you gonna do?
I’m like a little rock in your shoe
I’ll always stay right beside you
You’re looking over at me
I’m looking over at you
I feel free to make my mistakes In front of you
I know that I might be flawed
But you’re the only one I’ve got
To keep on throwing shots with
I keep that in my pocket
Oh and you know I try
To keep an eye out for you
Sleeping on the other side
Telling you the truth
We always give another try
Now I know why
We almost always do
No, I won’t walk out on
You looking over at me
I’m looking over at you
I feel free to make my mistakes
In front of you
I know that I might be flawed
But you’re the only one I’ve got
To keep on throwing shots with
I keep that in my pocket
Oh and you know I try
To keep an eye out for you
Sleeping on the other side
Telling you the truth
Always give another try
Now I know why
We almost always do
But I won’t walk out on you

Can't Help It
02:51
|
|||
|
Told you I can’t help it
You say it doesn’t have to be this way
It doesn’t feel like brain rot
My skin just craves the warmth of summer days
And now you try to make it better
But the void gets only deeper
With time
(I thought that shit healed all)
The little broken part is bigger
Than I could even fathom
It’s why sometimes
I think my all is
Not enough
The world wants to know if you’re tough
So call their bluff
Don’t answer with silence
Why let them decide that you’re
Not enough
I’m doing it all for the love
I know too much
Don’t answer with silence
‘Cause they don’t decide it
No
I know it’s almost over
Shrinking like the walls are closing in
Thanks for the reminder
Of good news and good times
Of course I want to go back there again
But then I try to see more clearly
And the memory fades to nothing
It’s time I left that shit behind
It’s not enough, the world wants to know if you’re tough
So call their bluff
Don’t answer with silence
Why let them decide that you’re
Not enough
I’m doing it all for the love
I know, I know this much
Don’t answer with silence
‘Cause they don’t decide it, no
(No…)

Avid Athlete
03:38
|

I got a bad attitude that I can’t lose
Try to improve our communication
But after noon, after you
Now I’ve lost my motivation
’Cause you were the one
Who was always supposed to be there for me
(I end up dealing alone)
You were never ever
Really truly there for me
(But I’ll still get on the phone)
Why don’t you make me a real offer?
I’m sure you can make it look real good
Lay your life down on the altar
Hold your hand
Say I knew you would
All of the memories are folding in
One on top of another
Don’t sacrifice your truth
You’ll never be me and
I don’t want to be you
She said you were an avid athlete
Nowadays you won’t walk up your street
She said you were an avid athlete
But these days you can’t be bothered to meet
I got a bad attitude that I can’t choose
You’re all over the place and I’m over you
It’s all through now and
Not too soon
I’m no longer involved in the things you do
‘Cause you were the one
Who was always changing the plans with me
(Last minute leaving me ‘lone)
And you were the one
Who took all of our feelings and ran from me
(Blamin’ me for what you’d done)
Why don’t you make me a real offer?
I’m sure you can
Make it look real good
Lay your life down on the altar
Hold your hand
Say I knew you would
All of the memories are folding in
One on top of another
Don’t sacrifice your truth
You’ll never be me and
I don’t want to be you
She said you were an avid athlete
Nowadays you won’t walk up your street
She said you were an avid athlete
But these days you can’t be bothered to meet
Though once you were an avid athlete
Now you’ve finally got nobody to beat
Not even me
Not even me

I got your letter
Guess I’ll see you in November
(Are you still there?)
Now that you’re better
I hope you handle things differently
Guess I’ll just hold this in for now
Ready to burn it to the ground, yeah you
Tell me you love me for now, yeah
Tell me you need me here for now
Can’t even tell what’s up from down
Breathing it in so I don’t drown
Now I find out
Mmm, now I find out
(Ugh)
All this wasted effort
Brought us closer together
Temporary lover
Temporary lover
Time makes hearts grow fonder
I can’t help but wonder
Temporary lover, temporary lover
Oh, whoa…
(It breaks my heart)
Whenever you’re cold
(I try to close my eyes)
So then I won’t know
You know what I want and you’re leaving
(No baby, no)
There’s still some time to get even
(Get even, but you’re my)
Temporary
(You’re my)
Temporary
You’re my temporary
If I close my eyes, it will go away
Guess I’ll just hold this in for now
Ready to burn it to the ground, yeah you
Tell me you love me for now, yeah
Tell me you need me here for now
Can’t even tell what’s up from down
Breathing it in so I don’t drown
Now I find out
Mmm, now I find out
(Ugh)
All this wasted effort
Brought us closer together

Time makes hearts grow fonder
I can’t help but wonder

Old Issues
03:54

I meant it, forever
You don’t have to say
You appreciate it
I meant it, however
You don’t get to say that
Two are still dancing
I met her in heaven
Some other place she couldn’t see me
I met him, I let it
Happen and I feel something wash over me
Old issues, old
I’ve become someone
Who can’t talk to strangers
May be better being alone
I won’t say I was always this way
There’s some things time
Can’t heal on its own
There are sometimes I feel like the danger (there are sometimes I feel)
Keeps me breathing out like before
And when I tire of fanning the flame (and when I tire of fanning)
Here’s hoping I’m
I’m warming up more
I’m warming up more
I’m warming up more
Get it together, thought that I could say
I’m feeling more stable
Kinetic, can’t let it open
When I don’t know what is coming
Forget it, I’ll let it take some more time on me
Old
(These are)
Old issues, old
Soft tissue gets cold
I’ve become someone
Who can’t talk to strangers
May be better being alone
I won’t say I was always this way
There’s some things time
Can’t heal on its own
There are sometimes I feel like the danger (there are sometimes I feel)
Keeps me breathing out like before
And when I tire of fanning the flame (and when I tire of fanning)
Here’s hoping I’m
I’m warming up more
I’m warming up more
I’m warming up more
Even though I’m strong
Even though I got it wrong
Even though I’m strong
Even though I got it wrong
Uh-huh, oh
