Left Out

I haven’t felt left out in some time,
I know you feel left out in your mind,
And I know that I’m left from the outside,
Because I’m left out in your mind

Dearest

If I could read you like a book,
I'd burn the pages and never look
What's in your head might make me wanna leave this life
Look at the sky in the dead of night,
Then close your eyes and start to cry
You watch your life flash before your eyes
Cus in the dead of night you took your life
And we fall..
Oh Dearest, please don't go,
Cus I can not follow you home,
I'm a ghost who is bound to this town.
Oh Dearest, please don't die,
Just this one time, could you try?
We're gonna live another day in this life.
I don't have a specialty,
I like you especially,
But I know that I should leave,
Just call me up ever need be

Haven't Slept

I don’t remember how it feels to wake up
Next to someone else
I wish my life could go back to how it was before we fell apart,
From the start I knew your heart would hate my art,
But hey,
Oh, I wish you’d stay another night
Do you know how it feels
To never sleep when you need to,
But only sleep when it’s at the worst of times?
If you don’t know how it feels,
I will gladly take your body,
And you can put your tired soul into mine.
I know it’s not that hard to see,
And I know it’s not that hard to be
Why don’t you catch some Z’s at my place?
I don’t have a bed, I only have a couch
But we can share that fucking couch until
Both of our backs break under pressure

Strange

Everything changed a week ago,
I don’t know nothing and nobody
And nobody knows my name,
It’s strange
Ready or not cus here I come
I’m gonna blast my way through everything and
Everyone,
I know that nothing has really changed
Don’t go thinking about me if you
Think you can live without me
Cus I promise you that I’m not worth your time
Everyone left a week ago,
I wish that everyone had stayed the same,
But now they’re gone away,
It’s strange
don’t you think that living a life without care is a life without purpose? If you don’t care enough to care, why would you care enough to give yourself meaning?
You can only have meaning if you give yourself meaning. But if you give yourself meaning but don’t take advantage of your new found purpose, what’s the point
Of purpose?

So open up your eyes to the mountain on the right,
It’s just a matter of time before you cannot use your sight,
Because your lenses can only do so much,
And we’ve got a lot to see, so I’m sorry if I rush
So why are you trying to disfigure your figure more than it’s disfigured already?
Why don’t you put your chisel down and look at yourself in the mirror when you’re ready
Everyone wants you to just be you,
So just be you and until your face turns blue
You’ll know what to do, you always do
Whenever you’re ready to go, I promise we’ll take things slow if you need to,
I know that we’ll be there soon
I promise you’ll be here soon,
I know that you’ll be there soon
The sky is waiting to meet you

Giving Up Happy Again
02:38
|

|
What’s the point of giving up when you know that you’re gonna be happy again,
What’s the point of having hope when you know you’re just gonna give up
I don’t know what to say to this piece of death that I have
I don’t know what to do with this shattered heart in my hands
I haven’t been asleep ever since you left

Blisters
04:42
|

|
The blisters on my shins from where my shoes went caving in
Are a reminder of what I went through for you
The sky is there to eat you
I dunno what you’re on about,
I know it’s something I can live without,
Your face has made me wanna break,
But I know that I need to
Act like it’s okay for you, for you, for you

It’s not my fault that you’re feeling it,
It’s not my fault if you’re feeling bad,
So what’s the point in saying that,
If you’re not gonna stop making me sad
You know that you don’t think,
But you know that everything is going,
Fuck everything,
You know there’s no point in knowing anything
If everything is gone,
Then what’s the point of optimism,
Fuck that, they hate you,
They just want you in a mental prison
it's not my fault

One day they’ll see another hopeless pile of rotting turtles on the shore,
Another day they’ll never have a guess about what they were once more
I don’t know what I’m saying to myself about that foggy sky
The tree branch waves it’s hand at me as it burns, and it says it’s last goodbyes
Distortion wearing masks of leather bracelets in our eyes,
feed the flies with your perfect skin you sanitize

everything that I talk about
Is everything you can live without,
Baby please don’t have a doubt,
I’ll be there when the sun burns out
Everyone said I was gone,
I couldn’t change, I was too far gone yeah,
That’s what I knew about myself
Have you said your goodbyes?
Have you sold you hellos?
Tell the boys I said bye,
Tell the girls I said no,
’Til I sell my hellos
No one will know
No one will know what I know
I sold my piano
So I could buy a ticket to get out of this town,
But here I am still kicking,
Still living in the same old town,
I couldn’t bring myself to get on that plane
And fly away to a place more sane
the sun will shine
when you're down
but sometimes things don't get well
so just know
take it slow,
you'll find time
to make it right
again
I don’t know where to go,
I’ve run away from home,
I know that no one knows,
How far away I’ll go
