Poison 03:48
I traded a life for a game Trace it all back to things I can’t explain Laying against your skin For once I think I can feel you again Taking in poison Talk through the smoke, act like I’m listening I hope you’d notice Why I’m sitting here laughing at nothing I can’t Waking up in sweats in bed While my dreams come to an end You keep making promises for a god to make amends Now you’re giving your whole body to another dimension I think you know there’s nothing beyond here but you’re still counting all your sins

I’m lost, I swear I can find you Time takes control, new faces make you Follow me, your reciprocated mind I can see, I can see Take down your walls, they’re only there for complexion  Running away, you’re taking longer than you said Lose myself, I’m so tired of all the same things Alone in my bed, everything’s racing   You can’t see what I saw Outside in, look and free all I say what you wanted Faceless pictures all in one head Look down the hall, see the light of your room It’s just a thought, but I’ll see you soon I’m sorry I couldn’t say what I was thinking I promise that I wanted to You can’t see what I saw Outside in, look and free all I say what you wanted Faceless pictures all in one head Why can’t I just change my mind? No I can’t see you near overtime So please go back and press rewind I’m alone in my head all the time Why can’t I just change my mind? No I can’t see you near overtime So please go back and press rewind I’m alone in my head all the time

Someone 04:47
She said I just called because I want to be okay This is the third day this week you haven’t said a word to me I want you to know that I’m okay You've been running in circles while I'm playing this game And I wish you’d just tell me something There’s been too many car rides where you don’t say a word So don’t tell me that you don’t know Cause I hate when you don’t speak while all that I’ve heard… You called twice and I knew you wanted But I told you that I was asleep the next morning I'm filled with this deafening silence While I tell myself that you're still thinking about me We know that we both want it But I drown out my thoughts with some cheap purple headphones Lay down in my car, I've lost it Wondering if you're driving or if you're still home If you told me that you loved me I swear I’d say it back to you Can we lay in the back of your car And waste away our thoughts like we used to do Now everyday I’m falling out You always used to say you’d want me to And I know you hate me for it But I can’t stop myself from missing you Called again and we talked for hours But I didn’t tell you what you wanted to hear I just told you that I was tired So you’d hang up and forget all the things we shared Deep down, I knew you loved it I wish I told you that I wanted you too But I know that you’ll still call So I’ll wait it out until I hear from you If you told me that you loved me I swear I’d say it back to you Can we lay in the back of your car And waste away our thoughts like we used to do Now everyday I’m falling out You always used to say you’d want me to And I know you hate me for it But I can’t stop myself from missing you Would things be better if I said I miss you? Would things be better if I said I miss you? Would things be better if I said I miss you? If you told me that you loved me I swear I’d say it back to you Can we lay in the back of your car And waste away our thoughts like we used to do Now everyday I’m falling out You always used to say you’d want me to And I know you hate me for it But I can’t stop myself from missing you

ILY4E! 04:18
Sitting there in my room Never had the chances Always brought it back up But we were void of any answers Even when I told you I would never try it I’ve never been see through I know you knew that I was lying Even from the start I knew it’d never be the same Taking off our clothes We gave ourselves away Growing up so slow I said that I would never change Now I can’t even get past The things that rearrange my brain In the backseat of your parents car We reached a new place under all those stars On that night, we made a permanent scar Now there’s no looking past what we are It was all overstated And now I underestimate I thought I could see clearly But you were all that I could take There’s no going back now Or taking back what I would say I swear I never meant to hurt you We left ourselves there that day Even from the start I knew it’d never be the same Taking off our clothes We gave ourselves away Growing up so slow I said that I would never change Now I can’t even get past The things that rearrange my brain In the backseat of your parents car We reached a new place under all those stars On that night, we made a permanent scar Now there’s no looking past what we are Now I’m losing my mind Head’s running in my circles I’ll never leave you I could never hurt you Even in my dreams You keep taking everything Making it your own Throwing it away I’d give anything Just to be there one more time Just to feel the way we felt those first few nights I swear you’re everything to me I swear you’re everything I need So tell me that you love me Tell me, tell me everything you’d never say I want to hear everything I want to see everything You don't have to hide You don't need to runaway I'll be your forever You can be mine Now it won't change Things will never be the same Now I’m losing my mind Head’s running in circles I’ll never leave you I could never hurt you Even in my dreams You keep taking everything Making it your own, making it your own Making it your…

Butterflies 06:33
She said you're nothing to me when we're not alone It's one of those nights for us to split up and just drive straight home
She said it's all or nothing, I know I won't see you in the morning so please take this time to tell me what's wrong
You've been driving around in circles looking for a place that fits your head, but nothing seems to be quite right
You know I want you but I hate you, I hate everything you do with me beyond tonight

I swore once you knew who I was, you'd leave 
I swore everything you said were just the hormones inside raging 
I'm a no good, worthless soul that wants to know what's coming next 
But I'll never feel the love I've always wanted 
I've been stuck in the same place my whole life but my point of view is always changing 
I've lost nearly every single night to sitting and pointlessly contemplating

Do you really want what comes with me? You seem too shallow to want more than butterflies 
Maybe I'm too quick to judge, I've been toying with you because I'll never be satisfied 
I see everything you think I don't, but lie so you can't take it any deeper 
I don't even think that anyone could love me, especially you, if you got any closer I swore once you knew who I was, you'd leave 
I swore everything you said were just the hormones inside raging 
I'm a no good, worthless soul that wants to know what's coming next 
But I'll never feel the love I've always wanted 
I've been stuck in the same place my whole life but my point of view is always changing 
I've lost nearly every single night to sitting and pointlessly contemplating
 
I got fucked up last week and didn't think about you once 
I said I'd never want a part of that but the feelings I had let me feel none 
I like the feeling I had when I couldn't feel a thing 
Waking up the next day empty simply reminded me 
That getting lost is the only way for me to be at peace 
Running on the beach and falling, shaking at the knees 
Not worried about the loads of constant anxiety 
Free from everything that always comes and haunts me I swore once you knew who I was, you'd leave 
I swore everything you said were just the hormones inside raging 
I'm a no good, worthless soul that wants to know what's coming next 
But I'll never feel the love I've always wanted 
I've been stuck in the same place my whole life but my point of view is always changing 
I've lost nearly every single night to sitting and pointlessly contemplating

Pavement 03:07
If I were to lose you And not see your face again And if that days come and you’re gone Then I, I guess I’ll be certain I can’t figure this out It’s lonely when I know I’m not the one that you’re thinking about Now that I’m with you I’m thinking out loud My eyes getting heavy While the world’s falling down I walked to the corner I swear you were waving My eyes playing tricks Feel each crack on the pavement If I had the mind to Finally let you go And all of the calls were just circling back I guess I’ll never know Back to the ending I don’t want to die but I don’t think this is living But now that I’m with you I’m breathing again My heart’s slowing down And I’m taking you in Pacing back and forth Feel my feet on the ground Clinging to the certainty As you turn around
7.
Maybe it’s an aneurism in my head Or maybe it’s the cancer spreading in my neck While I’m begging a god who doesn’t see me I’m singing so I can keep breathing It’s always been so deceiving To wake up in the night without warning And be constricted inside my own body I wish you were there to hold me Cause you can change the tics but not my heart Maybe I’ll stop checking all the locks on my car You tell me not to shake but it’s too hard To fall asleep when everything’s falling apart I’ll tell you my life story, I’ll ask for yours too And you’ll tell me all the things that I should do The thoughts will keep coming, they’re never gonna stop But I can make them seem normal if I try hard enough Go on vacation forever Go on vacation, it matters Go on vacation forever Go on vacation, it gets better Cause you can change the tics but not my heart Maybe I’ll stop checking for fires on the stove tops I still see the end before it starts If I pray enough then maybe it won’t go dark
8.
God’s not dead It’s just all in your head I’m still here Is that all that’s left? Strip myself away Once you take my place In front of heaven’s gates We’ll make ourselves a way
