Homesick 01:10
Kinda funny how it's come to this I probably shouldn't have called at all I kept thinking that you'd answer Don't know what I'd do if I got that far Take left onto your street Bring me back to when it made sense Change of seasons You'll never see it coming til it ends You live in the space inside my mind Hope you're comfortable I kept thinking that I'd find A better way to cope a better way to make me feel alright
2.
The last time we were at your house I was wrapped up in the feeling of Your hands on my chest Tiny moments mean a lot now I'd kill to kill some time, make every second count And never have to worry again I'll keep living life painfully You'll keep living someone else's dream It comes and goes faster than you'd think You're falling out of love while I can barely breath You couldn't pick a better night to be an absentee You'll always walk away, away from me Change direction feels like its changing every day But only going backwards I'm starting to get dizzy I'm all turned around You said you need to get away Leave everything behind including me I hope the last thing I hear you say Is that you love me I hope the last thing I hear you say Is that you love me

I'm not surprised you're changing your mind again Cause nothing's ever certain with you Awkward goodbyes, I'll stumble over my words And fall into a chasm of self pity The pit in my stomach's always there Same as it ever was Paper cuts and antihistamine I need a better remedy All the bridges built Will one day crumble down When you try to make it last You'll burn it to the ground That deadly smile, it always makes me nervous Like leaning off a telephone pole Sometimes I think is this worth it? Do you even care at all? Or is this just another game I'll never win I'll never understand All the bridges built Will one day crumble down When you try to make it last You'll burn it to the ground It all falls down It all falls down It all falls down It all falls down All the bridges built Will one day crumble down When you try to make it last You'll burn it to the ground

Parasite 03:45
Connection I know its insincere I'm less than perfect, cracked and stained Symbiotic you're my favorite parasite Dissolve my insides, eat me alive Sacrifice Your willing victim A sacrifice Crossed out eyes I'll concede You'll get your fill And let me bleed Willing victim With nothing left to give Willing victim With nothing left Crossed out eyes I'll concede You'll get your fill And let me bleed You're just a phantom Nameless and faceless Roam the halls With unfinished business Your jaded heart Is cold to the touch Filled with ice And frozen blood

I couldn't find your address Two blocks I would've had it I'm better off dead That's what my conscience says I can't blame you for Wanting something more Another lesson in how to make things worse A victimless crime, an underwhelming verse I hope you're feeling glad exactly how you planned It only gets better Anaphylactic shock I can feel my breathing stop Losing my grip You could give a shit I can't blame you for Wanting something more Another lesson in how to make things worse A victimless crime, an underwhelming verse I hope you're feeling glad (I hope you're feeling glad) Exactly how you planned (exactly how you planned) I hope you're feeling glad exactly how you planned It only gets better

It wasn't supposed to break just simply fade away But early warning signs were always there Clouded by love, tainted by hate This outcome was inevitable Deterministic, so self absorbed You'd think I'd be happier A future full of fear, a heart without much hope I'm trying to make it up from the year I didn't know I believe in nothing And nothing believes in me Lost in thought again Still can't picture it I can always focus on the things I can control The color of my walls, the clothes on my floor It's getting harder to remember what things used to be like Before I felt like nothing and the nothing felt alright I wish I'd known that getting older meant that everything would change I wish I'd known my opprotunities were fewer everyday I wish I'd known that life was harder than my parents made it seem I wish I'd known I could've drove away when I was seventeen I wish I'd known

Kinda Frowny 04:52
Cut me off again Just like you did last year There's no use for conversation You've heard all you want to hear I've never been All too comfortable Getting sympathy from strangers Or sympathy at all Cause I've been opening doors again I thought I would keep shut I've been leaving all the lights on cause I'm scared of the dark I've been wondering if you see the way you left your mark We're all so irresponsible with love My stomach sinks Waiting for the phone to ring I know just what you'll say I just kinda hoped you'd stay Cause I've been opening doors again I thought I would keep shut I've been leaving all the lights on cause I'm scared of the dark I've been wondering if you see the way you left your mark We're all so irresponsible with love Memories they open wounds That still sting just like they're new Memories they open wounds That still sting just like they're new I'll keep living in the past cause it's the only thing I know I wanna feel like you still love me, I wanna feel like there's still hope Cause I've been opening doors again I thought I would keep shut I've been leaving all the lights on cause I'm scared of the dark I've been wondering if you see the way you left your mark We're all so irresponsible with love

Orange 03:19
Footsteps lead me back to alleyways and concrete Have I been here before? Feels like I've been everywhere This place so unfamiliar And you seem so unfamiliar Downbeat stepping off the bus on my old street The memories I have Don't seem to fit anymore This place so unfamiliar And you seem so unfamiliar The streetlights show how much we age Before long everything will change

Less is more but not with you Can't process what it's like to lose A part of yourself that meant so much Puzzle pieces that don't fit Hearts so broken they can't be fixed It wasn't supposed to be like this And I couldn't be honest with anyone but you And I won't tell single soul how I really feel Losing battles losing faith I'd still be there anyway Time remembered and time forgot All the bad things that never stuck My vision's cloudy but that's alright Lost the feeling in your hand Smashed it in the door again You said the nothing's worse than pain When you tell me you love me it doesn't mean the same And when I look in your eyes it's like you don't recognize me I'll hold onto the person you used to be Whether that's good or bad it helps me sleep Less is more but not with you Can't process what it's like to lose A part of yourself that meant so much Puzzle pieces that don't fit Hearts so broken they can't be fixed It wasn't supposed to be like this
