Oh please don’t worry about me anymore, I promise I’ll be fine, Please don’t think that I’m gonna make you scared, I promise you’ll be fine And everything is a little hard, But you can get over a broken heart, Just try your best not to die And if you do not wanna be right here with me, I promise that it’s fine, But please don’t think that I will ever make you leave, I promise that it’s fine

Shave 04:10
I threw away my razor, I forgot how to shave. My glasses don't sit nicely On the nose of my face. I sent a message to you, Said to meet at my place, And though I know you hate me, Just wanna see your face. I called up all my best friends, Of course they couldn't reply. I tried with all there was in me But I still couldn't cry. I Haven't written a song in a year, I couldn't bring myself to try, (but) I haven't even been writing songs for a year, so I guess that one was a lie. And I know that I'll be alright, Just gotta last a couple hundred nights, I'm sorry that I did not shave, I don't know if hair suits my face. I promise that it will be gone, Just gotta get some shaving cream. If I can get myself out of bed, Then I will be shaven clean But I will be okay, Of course it's all just a phase, My glasses are broke, I can't see past the nose of my face (x2) And I know that I'll be alright, Just gotta last a couple hundred nights, I'm sorry that I did not shave, I don't know if hair suits my face. I promise that it will be gone, Just gotta get some shaving cream. If I can get myself out of bed, Then I will be shaven clean

I found the blade I used to cut our ties with, I miss your hands, the ones you covered my eyes with, I miss your face, it is stuck in my brain, I'm gonna punch in the wall, fuck everything, I remember the arguments we used to sigh to, I wrote you all this music just for you to cry to, This life is all we had, it’s now here to remind you, I know that I’m a mess but I’ll make it up to you I wrote this letter for you, Hoping that you’d never read it, I’m sorry that I assumed, But please know that I didn’t mean it, I say the same thing every time, As long as it rhymes, I’m so limited at times, but I hope you understand, That our memories remain, That’s what they are, memories, the memories have sustained Last time I sat with you right here, We’d known each other for less than a year, I felt blessed you were here but At the same time I felt so stressed you were here, I was a mess, did you hear? Cos we broke up every day, I thought that we could work it out, But there just couldn’t be a way

This feeling's killing me, far from reality, I know they're watching, gotta be careful. My heart is chasing me, it's getting hard to breathe, I know you're waiting, this is so stressful. Everything I try for you is nothing but a fail for me, I know I'm lost but you are more lost than I'll ever be I hate my skin sometimes, I wish it wasn't mine, I know they're watching, gotta be careful. My heart is chasing me, it's getting hard to breathe, I know you're waiting, this is so stressful. Everything I try for you is nothing but a fail for me, I know I'm lost but you are more lost than I'll ever be

I wanna get high with you, I’ve never wanted to smoke weed in my life, But you have changed me, For the better, Shit doesn’t feel like it did back then, But I’m glad it doesn’t, I was a piece of shit to you, And you know it’s true So don’t you go falling for someone else, because you know that my heart has been through hell So don’t fuck it up again, Or ever, (I was talking to myself) And I know that you aren’t doing too well, And I know your heart has also been through hell, So just hang in there for another day, Why can’t I just sleep next to you again? I can only feel safe sleeping when it’s in your bed. Shit still doesn’t feel like it did back then, And you know I regret every single thing I’ve said. So don’t you go falling for someone else, because you know that my heart has been through hell So don’t fuck it up again, Or ever, And I know that you aren’t doing too well, And I know your heart has also been through hell, So just hang in there for another day

My glasses have been falling apart for way too long, I don't know how to live without em', I never truly ever saw the sky, cus I could not see shit with my naked eye, please don't turn your back on me, my eyes have failed me, I can't see, your level of hypocrisy is insignificant to me, please don't run away from me, this heartless spider's chasing me, I do not want her venom, I just wanna be able to see, I hate that I'm left handed, cus the ink it just fucking smears, it's hard to write, it's hard to draw, I haven't used a pen in years, if 13 is my midlife crisis, guess I'll live 'til 26 my strings had broken and everything I tried was just a MAKESHIFT FIX!!! please don't turn your back on me, my eyes have failed me, I can't see, your level of hypocrisy is insignificant to me, please don't run away from me, this heartless spider's chasing me, I do not want her venom, I just wanna be able to see

My heart does not feel hopeful, it feels so fucking empty. Your stare if long and painful, is there something you wish to tell me? I hoped that you would call me up again one day, what started out was love but then you went away, And I wanna stay strong but I know I can't, I miss your body so damn bad. I hope your boyfriend's doing okay. I hope your boyfriend's doing okay because he seemed pretty cool, just please don't make me hope again, I'll just look like a fool

Lungs 03:07
(I miss you more than I should, I doubt you miss me, though I wish you would Let’s erase time and escape these woods, And pass the busy streets, I wanna see what the world has To offer up to me, The streetlight’s shining down on me, It’s getting hard to see,) I don’t know where I’m ending up, But you’ll be there I don’t know why you’re staying here, Just pass the lighter, let us smoke until we die, I wanna hear both my lungs cry
9.
My face is getting numb at the thought of losing hope, Just come back sometime soon, we miss you here at home. You’re loved, we love you, You’re missed, we miss you, Take off that dirty jean jacket you have, And come sit down with me, Let me help you through the motions, I can be here if you need, Just don’t give up on me This place is getting dumb, it’s hard to think that I lost hope, You never came back home, we gave up on you long ago, You’re loved, we love you, You’re missed, we miss you, Take off that dirty jean jacket you have, And come sit down with me, Let me help you through the motions, I can be here if you need, Just don’t give up on me My face is getting numb at the thought of losing hope, Just come back sometime soon, we miss you here at home. You’re loved, we love you, You’re missed, we miss you

See the lights shining in October, Been a year since I have been sober Getting drunk is fun when you have no friends Hear me sing, whining about closure, Hoping that it would bring you closer, I need you next to me until the night ends, Everything is falling apart, But everything was broken from the start So let’s just dance until the story ends, Man this shit is getting way too hard, You’re gonna leave me with a broken heart? Well that’s okay, I didn’t care, let’s not be friends
11.
Tell me whats the deal, I wanted something real, You said you wanna go, And I know, because it shows Your body language is becoming unbearable, The way you led me on is fucking hysterical, Cus I don’t want to be alone, In a world where you are not my own, But you left me here without a home, And I have to live life thinking that I should have known The weather’s getting colder, And I know that it’s over, Your body language is becoming unbearable, (The weather’s getting colder,) The way you led me on is fucking hysterical (x2) ( And I know that it’s over,) Cus I don’t want to be alone, In a world where you are not my own, But you left me here without a home, And I have to live life thinking that I should have known

Junk 03:22
I like it better when I don't wanna feel, the sun is burning up my skin to the bone the meat has stripped away, so I'll never heal, So I'll be skinless but the bones never show Where has your face gone? I ate it and left, I'd amplify my chest but no one would care, I'll drink this substance all to shrink my stress, because I'm tired of pulling out my hair I don't care about you, I just care about you getting well, I don't care what you do, I just wanna wish you well I like my face as soon as it's erased, I'd like to wear a mask until I die, because i this vacuum that we call space, no one will be there to hear you cry Where has your face gone? I ate it and left, I'd amplify my chest but no one would care, I'll drink this substance all to shrink my stress, because I'm tired of pulling out my hair I don't care about you, I just care about you getting well, I don't care what you do, I just wanna wish you well
13.
I feel afraid, Of what’s gonna happen, I wanted to hurt myself, But it never happened, I said that I wanna be somebody else, Everything’s ruined, My family is angry, My family’s mad at me, They didn’t understand a thing, Are you okay? Do you need someone to talk to? I’ll be your beautiful boy, You’ll be my so handsome girl, And even if we’re alone, You’re still my beautiful girl Are you okay? Do you need someone to talk to? I hope you can forgive me someday For what I did about 3 years ago, It’s not me anymore. music is subjective, But I know that It’s art regardless, Beauty is subjective, But I know that you’re art regardless, Let me be your figurine, I’ll live on a shelf, Still more eventful than my life, And I wanna be your wife But I know that I can’t because We both were scared of commitment, But I’m committing to being committed to you, because you are so different, We’re all just breathing people, Let’s not categorize our gender, Let’s just all hold hands and love each other, Because we’re all living people, remember? And I just wanna be with you again, And I just wanna see my friends again, And I wish that I could make it out of this mess, But I have come too far to go back, I’ve gone so far I’ve run out of slack, Please give me my life back, Please give me that life back! Please give me my life back, I want it now, I wanna be back home, I do not like this town, I wanna get a job at a place I love, Not some fast food joint or some retail stuff. I just wanna go back home, I’m confused!
