Soft Serve 05:07
No use in buying flowers from the store Sooner than later I will turn to dirt It don't get me down when I think about it My organs as flowers makes me feel like shit Don't wanna hear your voice I'd rather be buried deep underground Don't wanna hear you sing I'd rather be broken glass, into sand, drifting off Won't wait till tomorrow to feel better Won't wait till spring comes to feel lifted Won't wait till I'm old to forgive myself Best to get high and forget about it Best to get high and forget about it Best to get high and forget about it Nighttime looks best Thru a silver screen Don't look at me Don't look at me I can't forget Such a harsh stare Don't look at me, oh please You are burning with your--

Set yourself on fire Let go of desire These hands are for healing but The heart will destroy you How could you remember something so lost A faded vision to me now How could you remember something so lost Boys on the run, boys on the run , boys on the run, don't touch me I am a liar I am a liar To have run so far And face the same How could you remember something so foggy An ancient dream lost to me now How could you hold on to something forgotten Boys on the run boys on the run boys on the run Don't touch me How could you remember something so lost A faded vision to me now How could you remember something so lost Boys on the run, boys on the run , boys on the run, don't touch me

Unearthly 05:01
Sleep What a wonderful dream I'm underwater and I'm Feeling power and I'm Being pushed and being pulled And you're surviving and you're You're so much better and you're So much bigger Get out of my dreams I found something To hold on to Sending tingles down my spine So sorry to let go But I can't stay here You're gonna watch me float away Get out of my dreams

Dead Sam 01:38
bloody mess on the side of the road i am overcome and weightless as i leave you far behind as a mirage you have reappeared for me 1 million times all i feel is jaded at yr vacant milky eyes dead sam, dead sam little thieves strayed too far from your homes masked trash thieves night spirits making use of all gone wrong i would say that ill miss you and i love you but in all truth i will leave you at the end of all my thoughts dead sam, dead sam

Earth Angel 04:34
the body sleeps so tired from carrying weight but the mind's awake and the fingers are twitching away i find myself back in your bed on a winter's night listening to you sing earth angel earth angel angel earth angel earth angel angel wake up my darlin everything's twisting away and i haven't felt so cold in years everything's twisting away fallen youth you say as yr sleeping away yet i remain trapped in the depths of my brain earth angel earth angel angel earth angel earth angel angel, angel

hold my heart in yr hands and squeeze the blood between yr fingers do you want to tug on harp strings or do you want to let go im gonna thrash like a wild animal and im going to get what i want and im going to weave you the most ethereal web crawl outta yr sleeping holes little people today the sun calls u forth and the ocean pulls u down hold my heart in your hand and squeeze the blood between yr fingers do you want to tug on harp strings or do you want to let go what can you encapsulate in there? you been afraid of truth for far too long somethin good at the tips of your toes and still to terrified to let go what can you encapsulate in there? you been afraid of truth for far too long somethin good at the tips of your toes and still to terrified to let go hold my heart in yr hand and squeeze the blood between yr fingers do you want to tug on harp strings or do you want to let go to let go

I'm slowly dying, you let this happen to me my silver spoon has emaciated me my hair is growing, cutting would make me a slave I wear this clothing only to hide my frame what do you think they would see if I went into the light skeleton in his black cowl, get him out of our sight Wellness read as submission, propogation of the tamed happy to be how I am. I was made to do this thing skeletal shut-in making the hall of fame I read my spreadsheet now I'm playing the waiting game what do you think you would see if I went into the light skeleton in his black cowl, get him out of our sight

Skinned 02:21
its no use you said it so easily your skin breaks away from you freely shed your breath hold it in deeper i will live forever, I'm strong enough

Gently Used 04:06
Am I locked out of my body? Floating still on a cloud I can't feel you when you touch me I can't hear my thoughts out loud I know I'm not brand new but I'm Feelin gently used and I Whisper to you Use me use me use me used I'm not going anywhere Repeated like an alarm I'm not going anywhere I won't do you no harm I know I'm not brand new but I'm Feelin gently used and I Whisper to you Use me use me use me use use used Time to be shameless Cause I'm getting braver And it burns like the embers of a once great flame But I'm strong and I will blaze again I will blaze again I will blaze again I will blaze again oh use me use me use me used You smell like all my favorite memories

No Tornado 04:00
I wanna see u breathin In and out Yeah you'll wanna feel me seethin Flowing hard and burning your tongue Cause you were talking nonsense To confuse my troubled soul I know I've turned around now And I think I'm coming back for more You think you're fucking drowning But you've got a fish inside yr lungs I'm growing stronger I'm not falling liquid anymore I'm made of stone now I am a mountain in the storm You're falling down now You're lost like dust inside the wind Don't get me wrong now You're no tornado I'm just bored You think you're fucking drowning But you've got a fish inside yr lungs
