No Vibes 02:48
Sunday afternoon like I remember being there Sunlight creeps across the room You're nowhere to be found You are, you are You are the clouds that block my view And I can't make it through Come and go like wasted waves I sink hard into the ground Couldn’t make it right if I wanted to You repeat the things I say As if they mean something to you We've been on mountain tops We crossed the ocean once You are You are Feeling the way I do I can't seem to find my way to you Feeling like something new You are, you are You are the clouds that block my view And I can't make it through
2.
Teeth 02:07
Suddenly An explosion in my psyche Fluttering Floundering My wings are clipped Discovering A small crack in the foundation You can feel it start to shift Quivering The fear is so paralyzing But my body is starting to run I am the hand you are the teeth
3.
Confetti 03:43
I’ve been trying to stay up all night and It's not hard when I can't fall asleep without you And I've been trying to keep it together But nothing seems to stick What would you do? I know nothing changes You've been stuck in the back of head For so long that things just starts to feel ok And memories dissolve around me in pieces That fall and float away And that's ok I know I can let it go I know everything falls apart If I never see you again If I ever knew you then, it’s lost on me now Everything in a spin Like I ever knew anything
4.
I don’t wanna cuddle right now Please give me some space so that I can spread out Let me run my hot, dirty feet All over clean sheets to find all the cold spots I just want to go to sleep So I can steal all of your dreams I just want to go to sleep So I can steal all of your dreams Because mine stress me out I’d rather dream of seaside cities Than all these damn tsunamis; gonna swallow me up No matter how hard I can swing Dream punches never will land on my bully du jour I just want to go to sleep So I can steal all of your dreams I just want to go to sleep
5.
Swing State 00:59
Whenever I Swing high I’m risky I survive On sex and whiskey There’s got to be a better here Crashing down I fall so quickly Rollercoaster ride’s So messy There’s got to be a better here Oh sweet periwinkle cure The years go by and you have lost all your allure The edge is dull but it still cuts Inflate, deflate please make it stop
6.
Settle Down 02:42
We never chose to settle down We fought out of fear from losing our ground (I can be the one to show you how) Speeding up, never slowing down (Reaching out for your shadow) We’ll be a mighty team They’ll all see It doesn’t really matter The real enemy is the unknown We never chose to settle down We shuffled and stumbled down this well worn path (I can keep you closer to the ground) Gathering up all we had (Slowly building something that will last) I’ll be the one to say It’s all okay It doesn’t really matter Being sorry won’t fill the void Movement inside is always my imagination Push it aside and smile through the pain Swallow my pride and all my petty inhibitions Start moving outside along the parallel
7.
Wise Words 01:55
When you were young You trusted anyone You raised your face up to the sun Declared it God Wise words will be the death of me Shielding your eyes It should come as no surprise The shining One you gaze upon Has struck you blind Wise words will be the death of me
8.
Nag D 02:28
Teeth seen clenched so tightly, jaw hinge locked in place Still the lies seep out the sides of my mock up face Don’t talk to me I imagine life without a place I imagine life without a trace of this existence Inside screams inside me, I’m in full control Broken merchandise, but I’m still up for sale Don’t talk to me
9.
Open Water 02:41
I see you the way you want to be Windswept, kissing me You’re so good and I am nothing You are everything and I’m lost But I’ll keep counting the days Waiting for my hair to grow long again And I can’t pace myself I still feel everything I’ve ever felt And all I want Is to hold on to you You’re just floating in the open water Sunkissed, swept away And I just fall apart so easily Your love deepens to the end And all I want Is to hold on to you In my dreams you’re looking back at me I can’t even look away We circle around each other Peering over the edges, inside is everything or nothing at all
10.
In the Dark 02:21
Fear Is so impractical Yet I infatuate with it Clear Of any real obstacles But I still conjure up spirits In the dark We’ll finally be ourselves Then everything changes Worry It’s entwined with me And I’m trying to untangle Something carefree Is what I’d die to be But it’s never gonna happen In the dark We’ll finally see ourselves Then everything changes
11.
You bring me down to where you are You hold me back and I feel so small When I’m listening to the things you say It doesn’t matter, you don’t care anyway But you’re in my head And I can’t control you, I can’t even control myself But I can sure walk away before you get the chance to say That I can’t control you, I can’t even control myself But I can sure walk away If you’d stay far enough away from me Cause I can’t breathe with this weight you keep pushing off on me You’re pushing off of me But you’re in my head (Can’t think clearly Eyes so bleary Desperate just to Gain Control at all You’re in my head)
