How can I take the way I feel and whisk it away?
How can you tell the time when it gets further away?
Feels like the only way you hear me is through the other ear.
I’m lonesome, but that’s nothing compared to how it was before.
And if this is really the way it’s supposed to be,
Why didn’t anyone tell me?
Why didn’t I prepare?

Mvmt II: IV
05:16

It’s been a year
I can’t feel my tear
It’s funny how it manifests my fear
Walk around the lonely bush
My brain slowly turning off its push
And sometimes I wonder what you’re doing now,
Are you still listening to thunder?
Looking out the window from your house?
Don’t believe anything they say
I ripped it out like an IV from my veins
I know you think I’ve changed, but really
All I ever do is stay the same
Walk around the lonely bush
My brain slowly turning off its push
And sometimes I wonder what you’re doing now,
Are you still listening to thunder?
Looking out the window from your house?

Today I stepped out of my room again
Half-faced, say hi to my friends
I wonder when we all will bend
It feels it’s been forever, send
A letter to my own free self
I wouldn’t wanna be anywhere else
I wonder when this all will end
The world just keeps playing pretend
How can I be refused to flee?
Priorities...monopoly…
The whole west coast is crumbling now!
How can you say you’ll never know how?
When will you never be around?
And I can’t stop you.
Today I contemplated my whole year
Pissed off, full of so much fear
I wonder when this all will end
It feels it’s been forever…

Rain

All of these parallel corners
Oh, they burn me to the core
I wanted to blame you
I know I can’t anymore
My hands in my pockets
Like I’m clinging on for life
My face losing feeling
As I try to regain my composure
I’m so overwhelmed with it all
I’m so overwhelmed
By the beauty,
And the heartache,
And the pain,
And the loving,
And the kindness,
And the shortness,
And the rain.
So I will go, hand in hand, I’ll leave
And you won’t see me there
My dreams echoing faintly
My emotion slowly draining out of me
My hands in my pockets
Like I’m clinging on for life
My face losing feeling
As I try to regain my composure

We Fell
03:40
|
|||
we sang
we swam
we froze
in the depth
of our loss
as it bled
and it crept
it moved slowly
on the banks
of the dock
where we slept
and I wept
I remembered
the past
winter afternoon
and the day
slowly came
as my tears
dried out on the moss

Okay
03:30
|
|||
Sometimes I wish that I could go outside completely bare
I worry about every little thing
Why can’t I worry about nothing?
The other day I saw you walking upstairs
I touched my hair
You heard my stare
Words seem hard for me to say
But that’s okay
It’s really okay
Is it okay?

You like to pretend that you’re the best in everything
I tried and I tried to figure out your whole game
Forget the silly text, the consequence of lies
I guess you preoccupied the silence your heart brings
I’d like to remember times before I knew you best
We sat and we talked and laughed and you laid on my chest
The hotel lobby, I’m not sorry that’s the end you’ll see of me
Eternally
You’re sitting alone beside the hall where we once stood
The back of your phone just flashing, I misunderstood
The antiquated text, the consequence of how you let things go
Forget the reconnect, the recompense,
the way you said you’d go
Forever
Treasure

Are We Free?
05:57
|

Your words twisted, my heart aches
Are we free, or are we babes?
Her words tangle, face the facts
This isn’t the end, no going back
From fleeing and starving, we made it all this way
One hundred years standing, as we have been day to day
Are we free?
Are we free?
Heavy world, my back breaks
I see you’ve decided, deemed my fate
Destroying the beauty of the dreams we fought to create
We’ll return with fire and force you to look and engage
From fleeing and starving, we made it all this way
One hundred years standing, as we have been day to day
Are we free?
Are we free?
Are we free?
Are we free?
