Sorry I’m unkind
I need you
Push you to the side
No excuse
Sorry I was cruel
I gave you
All I could
Don’t give up on me
Don’t give up on me
As you breathe deep in the night
So silent now
Vulnerable the beating heart
Inside of you
There’s nothing here but bones and skin
And I like this view
It’s easier to just pretend
So I lie to you
Sorry I’m a fool
I need to
Drive you up the wall
To feel alive
Sorry I’m unkind
It’s really
The only way to
Keep me satisfied
Keep me Satisfied
As you breathe deep in the night
So silent now
Vulnerable the beating heart
Inside of you
There’s nothing here but bones and skin
And I like this view
It’s easier to just pretend
So I lie to you

Hollow

Sleeping in the late night
It’s dark now
I could never be just yours
Maybe with a little time
You’ll realise
We must let the flowers grow
You are
You are
You are
Hollow on the inside
Sleeping in the late night
It’s Autumn
I’m a dying apple tree
Everything that falls from me
Has roots you see
They have gone too deep this time
You are covered in skin
With the heart of a reptile
And the scales they scrape
Against my face
I’m a fool to let them
You give
Everything you can
to burn my pride down
You’re a mess outside
‘Cause you’re hollow on the inside
You are
You are
You are
Hollow on the inside
You are (Sleeping in the late night)
You are (Sleeping in the late night)
You are (Sleeping in the late night)
Hollow on the inside

I don’t wanna be your prize
I will run away and hide
Use my spots
And shield from light
In this game of seek and hide
I will never need
To be forever yours
You used to be the friend I thought I’d never have
Late nights with your guitar in light of Breaking Bad
Don’t need a cigarette
Forget you for a while
You really had my best
I gave it with a smile
Summer nights in moving cars, we drive down to the south
Getting lost in conversation, water at the mouth
Don’t need a silhouette to stand beside me now
You were the gasping breath
The line between my brow
I wish my sentimental mind was callus too
And I wish my limbs would push away from things like you
What the hell are you waiting for
I’d give a mile if you’d knock my door
Always keeping me wanting more
Always gonna be on the floor
Just try to catch me now

There’s a voice inside my head
Saying
To give it all to you
But I don’t want to give you hope
I decide to hold the words
I’m saving
I’ll save them all for you
But you will only wear them out
Forget
Stop wasting my time and yours
And still
You’re here
Are we
Seeing Shadows?
I’ll fall
With you
Like dead fruit
I’ll crawl
Through thorns
To free you
For life
For love
Inside I’m wilting
You’re mine
Or I’m seeing shadows
I’ll fall
With you
Like dead fruit
I’ll crawl
Through thorns
To free you

Heal

Cloud outside my window
Purple blazing star
It’s calling in the distance
Telling me to break your heart
If you’re so afraid of steep hills
Just go swimming in the deep
Now your kingside bed is empty
And your tv set won’t sleep
I’m trying to feel again
Like to heavenly souls combined
Without all the dusty trips
Cut the card in half
Keep us alive
Leave me in this dark room
And I’ll try to play it cool
‘Cause I know that in the distance
They’ll be making plays at you
I’m trying to feel again
I give up on sin
And i’ll let it win
I’m trying to make you high
I’ll remove myself
And I’ll let you heal
I’m trying to feel again
Like to heavenly souls combined
Without all the dusty trips
Cut the card in half
Keep us alive

Almost Bliss
03:08
|

Pales skies
Green eyes
Drawn like fireflies
Dead by sunrise
Like our sweet lies
This is almost bliss
This is almost bliss
Tempt me at night
Pull like moon tides
Dance till sunrise
Can’t say goodbye
This is almost bliss
This is almost bliss
The light is fading upon your skin and my
Body won’t lie
We both know how the story ends
It’s taking over
It’s taking over

Glue

We came away through the worries again
Though I can’t sleep at night
You carved a heart into my eyes
It’s not right
The severed stars pull away from my chest
As it breathes inside
You’re lonely eyes
Open wide to amaze the night
And it will stay
Like glue
To a letter
And Stars won’t fade
Until they reach
Their brightest life
And honestly
We could do much better
And reach the darkest of the night
We came away through the forest again
With adult feet
I followed you
Emotionally tied to your sheets
The severed stars pull away from my chest
As you stare from the trees
With breath inside
I’m out of time to end the retreat

Arrows
03:24
|

|
I can’t sleep
Midnight take me
To another realm
Whispering softly
I try to understand
The future in my hands
And my mind awakens
Arrows fly tonight
Across the skyline
Burst into flames
Feel the Embers
Arrows fly tonight
Across the skyline
Burst into flames
Can you feel it?
Heavenly embrace
I travelled through time
To make sense of this life
We are divine

Burn
03:23
|

|
We can
Pretend
To try
Forever
But I’m tired
Of wasting
All my time
I thought
We’d work
To make
Things better
But we’ve changed
Too much
To be the way we were
Let me go
I’m falling behind
So let me go
And let it burn
Should I
Have tried
I don’t know
If I’m guilty
And It hurts
To remember
How we used to be

The Void

I can feel the void
The absence taking over me
Love was mine to hold
You took it as it reached my skin
Still the show goes on
The lights are up, but no one’s here
Flowers in my lungs
Your Icey breath will freeze them dear
In my head
You’re a bed of roses
Where my hands are tied
(Behind me)
In my bed
Curtains fall
Then I wonder
Where I am
(It’s lonely)
Walking in and out
I’m nothing but revolving doors
But I called you out
And now you’ve never loved me more
Still the show goes on
The act of choice has found her role
I’m the substitute
Who’ll never leave the dressing room
